Reccing bingo at tardis_library

An awesome idea! Here's my card:

Games	Meta	Monsters	Fusion	Crossover
Romance	Role reversal	Children	Hurt/comfort	Layers/Textures
Mind control/possession	Fix-it	WILD CARD	Accidental marriage	School/Academy
Dancing	Noodle incident	Torture	Missing adventure	Alien Invasion
Tiny but perfect	Runaways	Tragedy	Companions	Dark

... and I have to admit, if I can't find a "noodle incident" fic, I'm going to have to write one.

You know, you should just save time and write the noodle incident fic anyway. (Actually, that would make an intriguing title on its own.) Plus, it combines well with any of the others! (Except maybe tragedy. Nothing combines with tragedy except romance, and who needs another Romeo and Juliet?)

... haven't you done almost all of the others?

sexy noodles?

Now you're making me wonder if I've already written a fic with a throwaway reference to a noodle incident, which is very possible. And though I haven't hit all the squares, I've definitely written enough to hit bingo on the last horizontal line alone.

What this world needs is Twelve/Missy fic re-creating the spaghetti scene from The Lady and the Tramp. Only there would be a lot more talking, and possibly a food fight, and definitely some poison in the noodles for which Missy had already given herself the antidote.

Anything I rec there is going to be either 100 words exactly or something even shorter, dammit.

"Try the sphagetti carbolica."

"Don't you mean carbonara?"

"I know what I mean."

...noodle. incident.

eta: What's the difference between a fusion and a crossover?

[nonelvis]

Add a few more lines of setup, post it, and I've got entries for "tiny but perfect" *and* "noodle incident" :D

...noodle. incident.

IKR, right? :D

Fusions vs. crossovers: as I understand it, a crossover merely includes characters from multiple fandoms. In a fusion, characters from one fandom are essentially "merged" into characters from another, almost like a form of AU. So a fic where Four and Romana meet Sherlock and Joan from Elementary is a crossover; a fic where Four and Romana are reinterpreted as Sherlock and Joan from Elementary is a fusion.

Wait, wait:

"I know what I mean. Try it. It's phenolminal."

"Don't you mean phenominal."

"I know what I mean."

I am almost tempted to write this. How often do I get chemistry/Italian food cross-over jokes?
