lady_saraiIt's finally up! A while ago, I mentioned that ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
xenokattz and I had created the Best Crossover Ever with the OTP of cute.
This is that crossover.
Katt (xenokattz) and I present The Oxygen Variations, a collection of stories centering around Jason White (of Superman Returns fame) and Lian Harper (of DC comics fame).
TITLE: The Oxygen Variations
FANDOM: DC comics/Superman Returns crossover
CHARACTERS: Ensemble, though mainly Jason White and Lian Harper at this point. Eventual pairings include Clark Kent/Lois Lane/Richard White, Roy Harper/Dick Grayson and Tim Drake/Conner Kent.
RATING: Eventual Teen/Mature.
SUMMARY: Two families growing up together as seen through the eyes of Jason White and Lian Harper.
NOTE: Katt and I have had many a long, detailed and geektastic discussion about this crossover and how best to meld comics canon with Superman Returns canon. We even have a very extensive spreadsheet. Because of the nature of comic canon and movie canon, some significant changes have been made, but rest assured that nothing has been decided without extensive discussion--and probably a lot of squee.
CONTINUITY: Currently--post Superman Returns. Coinciding DC continuity illustrates the afforementioned canon-twisting; WAY pre-Infinite Crisis--in fact, pre-Death of Superman. However, Dick is Nightwing and Roy is Arsenal--a member of the JLA. Tim is not yet Robin.
NOW AVAILABLE:
--Dueling Intros, wherein Katt and I explain precisely how this insanely awesome Crossover of Glee and the OTP of Cute came about. (There is also an explanation of the carefully chosen title.)
--Stranger Like Me: Lian Harper has just moved to Metropolis for Gr. 1. and Jason White finds a real bestest friend. How it all begins.
Note: Now also available on LJ for those so inclined: Stranger Like Me (LJ remix-but-not-really).
Disclaimer: We do not own Clark Kent (Superman, Kal El), Lois Lane, Richard White, Roy Harper (Arsenal, Speedy I, Red Arrow), Dick Grayson (Nightwing, Robin I), Kon El (Superboy, Conner Kent), Tim Drake (Robin III), Jason White or Lian Harper. They belong to DC with extensions to the creative teams of Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster and Brian Singer, Dan Harris & Michael Dougherty.
And a minor footnote involving our casting choices:
xenokattz: I LOVE our cast. I don't think I've said that often enough
Lady_Sarai: I LOVE IT TOOOOOOO!
Lady_Sarai: I don't think we've spent enough time gushing over them, either, given how awesome and made of win they are.
xenokattz: It was like cherubs were harping and light came down from on high and the fanfic God pointed a finger and said "This is Thy Cast with whom I am pleased."
The banner and HTML are entirely Katt's doing. Links lead to her website, because her HTML-fu powers are greater than my own. ;) Also, she rocks.
No, really, tellxenokattz how absolutely FANTASTIC and AWESOME the banner she made is. Because isn't it gorgeous? ♥ And now go read. ;)

She was screaming... evening television things at the boys. I JUST DIED.
...
She was his type of weird. This is now officially my new five-year-olds-OTP-from-a-fandom-I-know-nothing-about.
...
Lian didn't know why anyone would want to get stabbed in the front; there were too many bones there to get a good shot. Aksfjkdsji CUTENESS.
...
OMG I just finished it and am repressing the CAPSLOCKS OF GLEE! Plzplzplz mention it when new updates go up, yeah? Because aside from the fact that I didn't understand a single reference (exactly how does Lian's family work, anyway?), I am totally hooked. You're both amazing. =)

Date: 2007-05-12 03:21 pm (UTC)Lian is so made of win and cute that it isn't funny. She would be the bundle of cuteness in my icon, see? Her father is Roy Harper and her mother is Cheshire--an international assassin who specializes in poisons, and also nuked an entire country. Roy has custody, clearly. ;) (Also, despite being part-Asian, Lian was born with red hair--gotta love comicbooklogic.) So yes, Roy is the Best Father Ever--in canon, he's a single father. In OUR little world, Lian has two daddies! Roy, and Dick Grayson--who would be the original Robin (of "Batman and Robin" fame).
And YAY for capslock of glee! This is why we refer to them as our OTP of Cute, because they so clearly are. ;) We set up a comm last night for it--
We're a little overly obsessed--you should see the spreadsheets and hours of IMs. HA!
I'm so glad you liked it!!!!! YAY!!! *twirls you about*

Date: 2007-05-12 05:27 pm (UTC)Roy has custody, clearly. See, it's those sort of comments that make me love you.
Oh, I create all sorts of spreadsheets, too. Granted, they're usually for some fic that I lose interest in after a week, but STILL. The little boxes are so fun!!
Mmm. There is pie in the oven, and my hands still vaguely smell like the dough, and that makes me happy.

And ooooo, PIE!! =D

I am STILL laughing, omg. =)
