Between coughing fits at work, the plot bunnies started poking up, pointing out things that really should be done. Really.

Okies. First, we're going with the Sharpe/Riley thing. Where Riley and the Initiative are tracking down the Slayer, Elizabeth, Riley's girl from back in Iowa, and they're slightly affiliated with the Watchers, and Sharpe and the Chosen Men get assigned to work with them. There will be hating of Sharpe by Forrest, bonding between Forrest and Harper, general 'huh' from Graham and him and Hagman sitting around in quiet contemplation, and possible seduction of Riley by Sharpe. There will be historical details obsessiveness.

Then. Er. Faith popped up, asking what the hell I was doing writing a fic without her, so Faith popped up as Slayer #2, created when Buffy died for an instant a few years back. Gypsy with a load of guerilla style. And then she went 'I need a watcher. Wes, stop hanging around in the back and bring your shotgun.' So Wes has now joined the party, though I wasn't sure whether to have him as experienced Wes, Season 2 onwards, or BtVS Wes. Then I went 'He's hanging around with Faith, he's constantly doing guerilla stuff... of course he's bloody well going to be a hardcase.' Not quite season 4, though there will be elements of that in his character. Sharpe'll be a tad peeved at the fact that he can pass as a complete upper-class twit, though.

Faith pointed out that she would be shagging Wes no matter what. Then they individually started eyeing up Sharpe. So much so that I'm doubting whether Riley'll ever get a look-in in Sharpe's bed. They're also planning a threesome. Um. help?

Er. Also, how the hell I'm going to explain the Rossendale lookalike factor... Ah, sod it, this is going to go AU! Sharpe met Jane, liked her, promised her undying devotion, but never married her. Much easier.

Um, yeah. You fucking rule.

That is all.

(Faith banged Sharpe in my brain, too. Your version is so very much cooler than anything I ever came up with, though.)

Oooh...that sounds really good. Very creative, and can I just say that the addition of Faith and Wes - mmm, mmm good.

(by the by, [livejournal.com profile] twinkledru pointed me over here. I have to learn to follow her links more often. Do you mind if I friend you?)
