Let me just get this straight.
Jul. 24th, 2010 12:01 pmIn further adventures of things I honestly have no intention of writing:
It occurred to me this morning that there ought to be, somewhere in fandom, a French Kiss AU (shut up I love that movie).
First I tried it with White Collar, like maybe El is Meg Ryan and obviously Neal is Kevin Kline and Peter is ... Jean Reno? And they all end up together? Hm.
OR, Peter is Meg Ryan and El is Timothy Hutton and the falling in love with a French supermodel part is a wacky misunderstanding of some sort, and they all end up together. That might actually work pretty well.
Anyway, but then I got stuck trying to figure out if that means Neal is French--and, in the Peter-is-Jean-Reno version, is Peter French? Is Peter working for Interpol? Complicated.
And I thought to myself, surely there is another fandom I could smash this concept into and then I thought, OH! YES!
BONES IS MEG RYAN AND JIM IS KEVIN KLINE!
Which inevitably means that SPOCK IS JEAN RENO, ( and so on... )
The only thing I'm sure of is that you cannot cross the Timothy Huttons: it doesn't work with Leverage at all. (Well, maybe it would sort of work as a trio-only AU with Hardison as Meg Ryan and Parker as Kevin Kline and Eliot as Jean Reno, but--no. No. I'm gonna stop now.)
