Fic crossovers

[mightymads]

saki101 self-rec’d an ACD Holmes crossover with Edgar Allan Poe’s The Fall of the House of Usher; 

sanguinity wrote New Russian Holmes fusion with The Lost World as well as Elementary x Dinosaurs;

The first Holmes fic I wrote was inspired by Crime and Punishment.

I’m sure there are many crossovers out there. Recs or self-recs? :)

Hm, not sure this falls in with the bailiwick of the comm but I wrote ACD x Strange Empire, which puts Holmes and Watson in the Old West (right century for the comm, but wrong continent): Desperate Men and Fools. No knowledge of the second canon is needed.

(And definitely not within the scope of the comm, I did a few more Elementary fusions, one with Sherlock Holmes in the 22nd Century and another with Bee-Man Comics.)

Let's see, recs... A good many of these are from holmestice:

language_escapes: sewing her skin together as I sew mine, Enola Holmes x Mary Russell

graycardinal: The Impossibility of the Improbable, ACD x Mary Poppins

graycardinal: A Case of Identities, ACD x Doctor Who

(ACD x Doctor Who is a big category, and I haven't read most of them.)

(While we're mentioning Graycardinal, he also has some outside-of-the-scope-of-the-comm crossovers that I like: Star Trek: Next Gen Moriarty x Kurland Moriarty, Charlotte Holmes x 22nd Century)

gardnerhill has done so many crossovers I couldn't even begin to list them, but let's start with Everything is Watson, Lego Hound of the Baskervilles x Lego Movie

iwantthatcoat: Police of Penzance, ACD x Pirates of Penzance

RobberBaroness: The World's Greatest Anarchist Mind Great Mouse Detective x A Study in Emerald

argyle4eva: Carbuncle of Death Asylum/Dinosaur Holmes x Torchwood

....and I'm sure more will occur to me later. ;-)

Recently I wrote a Holmes-Star Trek fusion. The version of Holmes canon is deliberately mixed — it draws mostly from ACD but a few things from Sherlock. Back in the day on alt.startrek.creative.erotica.moderated (ASCEM) I was classed with the Vulcanologists, so the story is also a bit heavy on Vulcan worldbuilding, and is set in the “alternate original series” universe where Vulcan was destroyed. I’ve tried to make it accessible to non-Trek folks with worldbuilding & sexuality appendices.

With Careful Hands.

Oh yes, I should have mentioned that story. Loved it!

My latest crossover is Sherlock Holmes x Raffles. Rated: Teen. A kind of heist-fic or case-fic but not fluff or for those who prefer their ships uncomplicated.

Ohh, thank you!

There are some fusions with Regency and Victorian literature that I've loved, such as:

Homo Faber (13279 words) by Saki101

Summary:

In which Sherlock's mother's maiden name is Frankenstein and Dr Watson has been invalided home towards the end of the Napoleonic Wars...

What if Dr Frankenstein had had Dr Watson to keep him right?

Excerpt: “We are all egoists,” he said. “Every child likes to hear the story of his beginnings, the tale of his parents’ courtship, the events surrounding his birth, the parts of his story he cannot know himself.”

Summary:

John and Sherlock were engaged eight years ago and find themselves in each other's company once again. (A fusion in which Sherlock characters inhabit a world based on Jane Austen's Persuasion.)

[NOTE: This story is not set in the Victorian era, but since Peter Pan was a Victorian novel I felt it fit the spirit of this list. Plus it's just a very wonderful story.]

The Cleverness of Me (4429 words) by Solshine
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Sherlock (TV), Peter Pan - J. M. Barrie
Rating: Not Rated
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Characters: Sherlock Holmes, Mycroft Holmes, John Watson, Peter Pan

Summary:

Sherlock has always been incredible, has always been cocky, has always been childish. He just wasn't always Sherlock. This is the story of how Peter Pan left Neverland.

And this is a wonderful fusion with the Patrick O'Brian age of sail Aubrey-Maturin novels:

Many Weary Months (5714 words) by alltoseek, JessamyGriffith
Chapters: 5/5
Fandom: Sherlock (TV), Aubrey-Maturin Series - Patrick O'Brian
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences

Summary:

In the summer of the year 1812, a Lieutenant S. Holmes of His Majesty's Royal Navy, banished to Upper Canada for insubordination, wrote a personal letter to his friend and companion Doctor St-J. H. Watson. He enclosed this letter in a package with several other objects intended to be sent to the Doctor via the next packet ship.

This parcel was never received by Doctor Watson, nor was its existence ever known of to scholars or historians. Until now.

A nineteenth century fusion with Master and Commander, written as a slice of life, history and first meetings.

Now translated into Chinese, by rsh437.
