#911-Glee crossover

[buddiedaydreamer911]

in light of 911onABC posting this 911/Glee comparison:

and including Jennifer Aspen! (Lorraine-911/ Kendra-Glee)

Id like to use this post as my pitch on how I think Ryan Murphy should create a 911/Glee crossover.

Should every glee character cross over? no. they’re all grown up, some of the characters clearly have a double life in 911. But out of all the characters, I think the only two who should crossover (whose actors has not made a new appearance on 911 as of yet) should be Blaine and Kurt.

Klaine was a huge ship for a tv show in 2009-2015 when same sex relationships wasn’t socially accepted yet. But Ryan Murphy did it anyways which lead to (helped contribute) a whole new community form (LGBTQ+) in a new light.

Now years later, here we have Buck and Eddie. Buddie, who lots of fans passionately want to see them be together. Now in an age where same sex relationships ARE socially acceptable, yet we’re just not getting this ship yet.

I think it would be cool to have Blaine and Kurt, years later- still married with kids- come in and somehow influence Buck and Eddie to make the final push to be together. (either purposely or by total accident.)

and of course, a song sung by Kurt and Blaine. obviously.

[azaharinflames]

You’re a glee fan so I figured it’s my duty to ask you (if you haven’t already) to give us your headcanon as to what songs each 911 character could have as a solo, and (if you want to) what context is behind it. Or if it’s easier, what duet can you see the 911 couples having

Oh wow, this is an awesome ask!

(small disclaimer because I do not think I am overly good at this lmao, but I can try)

Not something I see them breaking into in the middle of the show, but a song I imagine them fitting / singing and feeling reflected in it.

I will just do it in alphabetical order, I guess. Also, just mains for characters because otherwise my head will maybe explode. And last disclaimer - some songs are very mainstream, but I will try to choose some not as popular songs, for funsies:

Evan Buckley: my sweet, sweet summer child. I think he is the walking embodiment of Matilda, by Harry Styles. Maybe an easy pick here, but my God, I hear it and it's like: this is Buck. It perfectly encapsulates what he is and his journey to come to the 118, and it is such a soft song. I am biased because it is one of my favorite songs, but I think it applies haha.

Eddie Diaz: Had a hard time with him.There is this beautiful song that I already apologise for mentioning, because it did make me cry the first time I heard it. But how to grieve, by simon robert french is gorgeous. After his SL this season with Shannon, I do feel this fits him. Even, I can see this applied to Chris as well. (apologies)

Chimney Han: Don't know why, but I cannot help but think of Everybody Wants to Rule the World, by Tears for Fears. The song just screams Chimney (to me) and also, I totally can see himself singing this and killing it.

Maddie Han: maybe it is because I've been on a Fleetwood Mac kick lately, but I would choose Landslide for Maddie. I think the lyrics do fit her very well, and honestly, I think the song would fit JHL's voice beautifully.

Bobby Nash: Wave After Wave, by Sleeping at Last, comes to mind rn. Very introspective, I do think of Bobby if I listen to it.

Athena Grant-Nash: I am unable to think of a more fitting song than Rise Up, by Andra Day. What can I say, the begins episode really nailed it. Like, that is Athena's song. And if I ever heard her singing it I'd be a puddle of tears.

Hen Wilson: I can see her singing Under Pressure around the time of 602 (I may misremember, but maybe it was actually used in the ep?). Other than that, top of my head she by dodie makes me think of her, but I don't know if she would sign it.

I haven't done recurring because this took me long enough lol, but for couples (I am only doing canon, sorry, if I start with friendships and families I won't ever end, and this is long enough already). Alphabetical order:

Bathena: Lowkey The Lighthouse Keeper, by Sam Smith. I think they were each other's saving grace, and have kept being so during their whole relationship. Also side note I have seen in some places this is a Christmas song? I hear it outside of Christmas, so if it is let's ignore it (thanks!).

BuckTommy: I am going to say Tireswing Song by Corrina. I am trying not to go too mainstream here. I do think it speaks well of the hope of a promising new relationship.

Henren: Don't know why, but Would that I by Hozier, maybe. Do I see them singing it? Perhaps not. But the reverential tone of it - very much reminds me of Henren.

Madney: I am trying to go for sort-of unknown songs with this one. I think Ophelia by Roo Panes fits them well. It is a soft song that speaks on how they see hope in each other. Don't know if I am way too off-base, but it reminds me of them.

And to add:

Buckley Siblings: Lastly, I am sorry, I cannot help myself, they are my favorite TV siblings. Also, I have multiple options haha. I always think of The Exit by Conan Gray as their song, ever since I saw an edit of them using it. It fits insanely well. Also everything I wanted by Billie Eilish. She did write it with her brother in mind, and I can't help but thinking of the Buckley siblings for that. Birds of a Feather lowkey makes me think of them as well.

I had a lot of fun with this ask haha and I did warn you I am not overly good at this, but here is my attempt at it! Also I do tend to go for softer songs, which I think might be a bit evident by now haha. Oops.

[abandonedaccount1234]

I WAS JUST THINKING THIS EXACT THING!

If I had a nickel for every time a Ryan Murphy character stole my heart in season 1 but looked VERY different by season 6 and met a brunette boy in season 2 who changed his life…I would have two nickels.

Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice, right?

[thebuckandeddiething]

once again twitter made me aware of some ancient (2012) ryan guzman lore:

what the hell is happening.

future 911 musical ep x glee crossover? (of course not but it'd be hilarious)

someone commented "lea for eddie's next tragic love interest" and I choked on my drink

[icyfox17]

The demons got to me... Anyways here's the first snipp of a 911 x Psych crossover lmfao

"A psychic detective?" Eddie's unconvinced voice rings out in the station's kitchen. "Yeah!" Buck replies, chipper as ever as he puts together a PBJ sandwich. "The amount of cases he's solved is crazy. And—! He even uncovered a dinosaur skeleton. I've been meaning to drive to Santa Barbara to see it. Maybe I'll take Christopher—” "A psychic detective," Eddie repeats, having barely processed anything else Buck had said. He chuckles. “You can't—you can't seriously think this is real.” “Eddie, he's been working with the SBPD for years. Don't you think if he was a fake they would've found out by now?” Buck asks, and his voice sounds so genuine Eddie kind of wants to cry. “Buck. Buck. Magic isn't real. There is no way that he's actually psychic. It's a publicity stunt! Makes the SBPD stand out or something.” “Just you wait and see Eds. Once you meet him, you'll have to believe it.” Buck says, pointing at Eddie with the most obnoxious grin on his face. Eddie can't help but feel fond at the sight of it. Sure Buck’s an idiot, but at least he's a cute one. Eddie gives up on having this argument with him. No matter what Buck says, he won't be convinced. They couldn't convince him with the jinxes (although some small part of him is still slightly freaked out about that) and they won't convince him with this psychic detective, not even if he's the most sophisticated all-knowing person ever. ~*~ “Gus, how many burritos do you think I can fit in my mouth? My money's on six, but maybe if I shove them in horizontally…” He reaches over to grab the cooler from beside Gus in the back seat, but Jules slaps his hand away. “Shawn, seriously? Those burritos are for everyone.” Shawn huffs, crossing his arms with a pout. “Yeah well, we've been in this car for hours, and I'm starving to death.” “It's been an hour Shawn,” Gus’ voice pops up from the backseat and Shawn shoots him a betrayed look. “Whose side are you on?!” Gus tilts his head. “The side that makes sure that I still have some burritos for myself.” He then opens up the same cooler that Shawn was just trying to reach into, and pulls out a perfectly tinfoil wrapped burrito that he delicately peels away. His eyes are alight with glee as he unhinges his jaw and prepares to take the biggest bite known to man, when Shawn twists around in his seat and grips Gus’ arm, pulling it and the burrito away from his mouth. “That burrito is mine sucker!” Shawn calls out, trying to take the burrito for himself. “Oh no you don't, Shawn!!” The two of them struggle back and forth, causing the car to shake slightly, but that doesn't matter. What matters is that Gus is a backstabber and Shawn needs his burrito! “Guys!” Jules’ voice calls out sharp, and the two of them freeze—Gus’ left hand smushed into Shawn's face, and Shawn’s free hand gripping Gus’ throat in a chokehold, their other hands wrapped tightly around the burrito in a tug of war. She outstretches her right hand, keeping her left hand on the wheel, and makes a grabbing motion. The two of them dejectedly give the burrito into her palm and she huffs, smiling. “Thank you. We have one more hour to go. You can both eat one burrito, okay? The rest are for when we get there.” She then takes a satisfied chomp of the burrito in her hand.

20 Questions for Fic Writers

@rmd-writes tagged me and I like remembering that I write...

How many works do you have on ao3? 78

What's your total ao3 word count? 955,606. Feels like I should do something big for word 100,000

What fandoms do you write for? Past: Days of Our Lives, Emmerdale, and Glee Current: RWRB, 911 Lone Star

Top five fics by kudos: Every nation ought to have a right to provide for its own happiness (FirstPrince) The tender things are those we fold away (Tarlos) Tell all the truth but tell it slant, Success in circuit lies (Tarlos) But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep (Tarlos) Want (Robron)

Do you respond to comments? I try to, although logging in my AO3 to do this showed me how many messages I have in my inbox so... ish?

What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? I tend to favour happier endings but I guess I could say that Rumours has an angsty ended, what with both of the characters dead. Although it was at the end of a long and happy life together so... not that angsty?

What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? They're all happy, but all of my FirstPrince ones will have the happiest of happy endings for Henry because he deserves more than anything.

Do you get hate on fics? Not really. Closest I got was people basically yelling at me for not doing a thing in a fic which I'd outlined in part 2? 3? could never happen. So lots of "WHY DON'T YOU WRITE THIS?" and me going, "...because I won't?"

Do you write smut? I dabble. More of a fade to black kinda girl.

Craziest crossover: Don't really do them.

Have you ever had a fic stolen? Not that I know of.

Have you ever had a fic translated? I have, and being asked was the biggest honour ever.

Have you ever co-written a fic before? I did once, writing mirror chapters of a fic with someone. (We each wrote a different perspective on an event.)

All time favourite ship? Don't make me choose between my babies.

What's a wip you want to finish but doubt you ever will? I have a Tarlos WiP just... sitting there. And I don't know if I'm going to get the love for them back.

What are your writing strengths? idk, finishing something?

What are your writing weaknesses? idk, not writing?

Thoughts on dialogue in another language? If it works, then I will do it. Fun fact: I once had a couple of characters have a conversation in front of the two main characters in French. I deliberately didn't provide a translation because one of the two didn't know what was being said and the reveal wouldn't come until the next part. Got yelled at for that too. (Like, the internet is right there.)

First fandom you wrote in? Like... ever? Lord knows.

Favourite fic you've written? I've got ones I'm really proud of for various reasons. Vows (Glee) because it was the first big one I'd done and it landed REALLY well, Exponential (Emmerdale) because it was structurally a challenge, In the burned house I am eating breakfast (911 Lone Star) because, well, I just love it.

No idea who is left to do this so tagging my writer crushes:

Do you respond to comments?

rarely. I always appreciate comments, like, i always get so giddy and happy when I receive one, but there's only so many ways I can say thank you, you know? and I don't wanna clog up the comments with just thank yous. but i try to respond if i feel like i have a good response to offer.

What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

i'm actually not sure... this was on another account but maybe it's don't say you love me but i never really use this account anymore so if we're talking my current account it might be nothing's gonna bring us down (for new years) since its like sad but open/hopeful ending.

What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

uhhh. i'm not sure actually. maybe behind closed doors ??? like i genuinely have no idea

Do you get hate on fics?

rarely, yeah.

yes.

good enough to make you grow (where negan from the twd has a three some with eddie and buck from 911.)

it changes with each brainrot honestly. right now? cegan. hands down. but there's also been other ships that i've loved.

What's a wip you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

another one on my previous account called sour times. i just got some comments on it that i hated and i lost interest in it. i still had fun writing it but yeah it just does not feel like i want to finish it at all and i've honestly been debating deleting it but then i don't bc what if some readers like it enough to reread? so i just leave it like that.

What are your writing strengths?

i'm not too sure. i think maybe dialogue??? not sure though, i try not to think too hard about that.

What are your writing weaknesses?

its hard for me to figure out pacing. and smut is so hard for me it always takes me ages to write one smut scene compared to other stuff.

Thoughts on dialogue in another language?

not a fan, but also i don't really care.

First fandom you wrote in?

it was glee. those fics are out there. but i pretend they're not bc i was 15 and they're cringy as fuck.

Favorite fic you've written?

right now it's blood on my shirt (heart in my hands) (911, buddie)

i shall tag: @duchessonfire @bigassbowlingballhead @eusuntgratie @tawaifeddiediaz @usereddie @wh0re-behavi0r & whoever else wants to do it.

[buddiedaydreamer911]

as buck (and hopefully eventually eddie) starts their journey of finding out who they are and what their sexuality is, i feel like the one true trusted parental figure that we’ve seen handle this before needs to come in. we need burt hummel. that’s our 9-1-1/glee crossover.

we had finn hudson’s mom on the show.

we had dave karofsky’s dad on the show.

we need burt hummel.

1. Danger Zone 2. In good hands 3. No Need To (Glee fic) 4. A Heart with New Skin 5. In order to keep you

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

It's my favorite thing (after reading the comments)!!! I simply love getting long rambley replies to my comments on other fics and I want to give the same thoughful reply to comments if I can. Comments mean so much, I want to give back. 💕

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Glances at my Glee fics...uhm. Yeah I don't shy away from ambigious endings but I feel like the Tarlos fandom would have my head lol. But hey there is In your corner that does have a pretty sad foreboding ending (but it's part of a series so it doesn't really count)

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Maybe The kind you can't get away from and you could say there is multiple happy endings in In the dark ;)))

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Only unkind 'criticism'

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Oh almost always sprinkle it in if it fits. I mean I have a whole D/s series I guess you can tell what kind I write.

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

I don't and don't really like them.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Nope.

Not yet but planning to. I think collaborating can be so fun. <3 Anyone hit me up and we'll see if we can work something out.

14. What’s your all time favorite ship?

For now it's Tarlos. Still get giggly watching Klaine scene and reading Kurtbastian scenes and find other on-screen couples cute but never go crazy about them like I did for those.

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

The WIP of how Carlos feels about Owen and then how TK feels about Gabriel.

16. What are your writing strengths?

................I write daily? Like I don't hate my writing at all, I'm proud of it, but not sure one thing sticks out above anything else. Decent smut? idk.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Sticking to a single theme. I have so many ideas I want to follow and then I do only to realize.....nope that doesn't work. I'm very intuitive as a writer which is a lot of fun but not necessarily lends itself to good story arcs or good storytelling.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

I personally like it a lot. I even like googling to find out what it says if there's no translation.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

Naruto. But in German.

20. Favorite fic you’ve written?

Weirdly enough the Kurtbastian fic I wrote for Nanowrimo last year and now is 100k gathering dust because Tarlos took over my life. But I think I romantice it because it was the first writing I had done in 6 years and I fell back in love with writing. I'm sure I have better fics. I'm also really proud of The kind you can't get away from and Take my hand take my whole life too

Sorry I competely lost track of who did it. So if you want to participate I tag you lovely soul

[ficreadingchallenge]

do you have any recs for 'new (to me) fandom'? i have been reading fic for over 20 years so i have read in pretty much all the big fandoms. i don't wanna pick a random fic thought, because i have been reading fic for so long that i like my fics GOOD.

would prefer slash and 5000-10000 words. it's probably gonna need to come from a smaller fandom.

fandosm i've read in: bandom (think when FOB and MCR was big), glee, bts, supernatural, kpop, harry potter, 911, SVU, marvel, sherlock holmes, dr. who, young royals, heartstopper, adam lambert, lord of the rings, ect.

see, i have no idea where to go! can you help??

*digs around in giant tote bag of fandoms*

Let's see, I've got some finely aged Stargate Atlantis, Inception, Leverage, The Dark is Rising, Die Hard, Star Trek (reboot), and Sense8. If you prefer a newer vintage I've got some Witcher (TV) around here somewhere. I've also got some fairly rare book and movie fandoms in my back pocket.

Anything there tickle your fancy?

Oo! How about a crossover - Stargate Atlantis and Supernatural.

And All the World Beneath, by seperis (explicit, M/M, 62k) https://archiveofourown.org/works/20354

Or you could take a chance and read this sci fi AU of The Eagle (mash up of the book and movie) that I thoroughly enjoyed. The author does a great job worldbuilding and I don't think you need to be familiar with the source material to have a good time.

Eagle Nine, by Isis (mature, M/M, 36k) https://archiveofourown.org/works/463118

I know, I know, you said between 5 and 10k. Not a lot in my bookmarks matches that, but have an Inception fic:

It's Automatic, by weatherfront (explicit, M/M, 5k) https://archiveofourown.org/works/364949

And just to prove I do occasionally read things under five thousand words, here's a cute little fic from Red, White, and Royal Blue:

Primary Sources, by Aurum (teen, M/M, 1500 words) https://archiveofourown.org/works/21837292

[outrunningthedark]

Fox also has The Following, the first season of which has a man involved in a gay fake dating plot turned into a sexual awakening. It doesn't end well for the men, bur Fox has been putting queer characters on their show so 911's problem is not on the network, it's on TPTB.

*googles The Following because I don't remember it* ADAN CANTO AKA ARMAN MORALES WAS ONE HALF OF THE SHIP??? *head explodes*

Getting back on track... IA with you that 9-1-1 fandom has put too much of the "blame" on the network rather than TPTB, and we can understand why - people want to believe that showrunners/writers would absolutely do what the audience wants if it weren't for the billionaire(s) sticking their nose where it doesn't belong. This already happened when Disney acquired a portion of FOX Corp and started putting the 911verse on Disney+ - Not only was Buddie less likely to happen because Disney is notoriously homophobic, but fans expected Tarlos to be treated differently, too. (Spoiler alert: They were wrong.) I haven't changed my stance on canon!Buddie because my POV has always been that the show could hold out until the last available opportunity if they wanted to "play it safe", but if that's where this is headed, Tim & co. went wrong/made things more difficult than need be by not confirming at least one of the characters is queer (and the show just hasn't explored that part of his story). The most logical choice would have been Buck, since Josh made the comment in s3 that the card game had vibes of a date and TK thought Buck was being flirtatious during the crossover. (But nah. Just a couple of laughs for the viewers.) FOX isn't afraid of the queer community. FOX wouldn't have picked up another RM show after Glee if they wanted to discourage that demographic. (They were running their political ads during 9-1-1, remember.) The showrunners are the ones worried about fixing (in their minds) what ain't broke.

Aren’t you that weird proshipper who ships adult and minors ??

??????? I'm sorry, what?

No, never. I'm actually really flabbergasted right now. I can't think of a single ship I've had like that. I also am not usually in fandoms for ships so much as characters, nor did I think I would have any fandom notoriety to lend to that sort of misconception. I'm pretty staunchly against anything like that, so- am I being confused with someone else? Is there something I'm missing here?

For what it's worth the main ships I've talked about in the past are:

Dean/Castiel (Supernatural)

Zach/Alex (13 Reasons Why)

Jess/Rory (Gilmore Girls)

Tobin/Leif (Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist)

Buck/Eddie (911)

Nancy/Ace (Nancy Drew)

I started as a Glee "blog" (barely doing more than liking and reblogging) when I was a teen and it was actively airing, and even then didn't get involved with most ship stuff. I had a ship I created with my best friend from a crossover when I was 16-17 and the main couple in that was a 17, almost 18 year old, and an 18 year old, and tbh that's the only thing I've written or been involved with that even did that and it makes me a little antsy looking back and is something I would change if I went back to it. I have a bunch of ships I like from various fandoms but not a single one is between a minor and an adult. I guess I have a soft spot for Zuko/Sokka from ATLA but one of them isn't an adult while the other is a kid, at least not in anything I've looked at or what have you. Can't think of anything else even going over and over things in my head. I guess I also have a soft spot for Will/Mike in Stranger Things, but not because of anything sexual. I read a lot in Teen Wolf when I was younger, but mainly shipped, like Scott/Isaac (and Scott/Kira), so again not a minor with an adult. :/

If there IS something I'm missing or have somehow screwed up with or that's being said, though, I'd love some elaboration. I would never endorse a relationship between an adult and a minor both as a human in general and someone with PTSD stemming from grooming and SA situations. Please let me know regardless, so I can rectify whatever has gone wrong (or know that there was in fact a mixup if that's what's happening).

20 Questions aka. Oversharing on the Internet version 92840938. Plus one?

Thank you for for tagging me @welcometololaland. Even though I suck at tag games and answering asks...

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

77.

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

952,168. Pretty sure the next fic is going to top the million mark when (if) it finally goes up.

3. What fandoms do you write for?

At the moment? 911: Lone Star & Red White and Royal Blue

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Every nation ought to have a right to provide for its own happiness (RWRB). My newest fic and clearly posted at the right time to ride the wave!

Tell all the truth but tell it slant, Success in circuit lies (Lone Star) My post-Sadie fic. I really liked getting to play about with the narrative structure in this one

The tender things are those we fold away (Lone Star) Only Fans fic, my beloved.

But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep (Lone Star) My first Tarlos fic. Written before Gwyn's sudden death and she had a starring role at the start of it. And then I did something similar with Gabriel for my last one. I swear I will never heavily feature any recurring character again.

Want (Emmerdale) Come back to the Dales, Hawley you coward.

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

I respond to 99% of them - hard to come up with a response to a comment that you know someone just cuts and pastes onto all fics they read. (I am grateful for all comments but still...) You took the time to read and leave me a comment, I'm going to acknowledge that.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

I'm going to go with Rumours (Emmerdale) for this. Because while they both die at the end (no reference intended to the book!) there is a whole life for Aaron and Robert before that moment comes.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

I think most of them? It's all varying degrees of happiness because it depends what has happened to them in the meantime. But it all comes out in the wash.

8. Do you get hate on fics?

I once wrote a fic in which I had characters explain why they couldn't take a particular course of action, and I had comments like "this is stupid, why don't they just do x?" which says more about their lack of reading skills. Other than that, not really.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

I do, but it's more about the feels than the actions.

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

I've never written one, simply because it feels a little too much like crossing the streams. Unless they are canonically in the same 'verse my muse refuses to even consider it. She's a sucker for rules like that.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not that I know of.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Someone translated a Glee fic of mine into Russian (I think? It was a cyrillic language, I remember that) but I am always open to it!

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

I did a dual narrative fic once and that was great fun.

14. What’s your all time favorite ship?

Don't make me choose between my babies. I can't.

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

I have a Tarlos WiP and a Firstprince WiP and I want to finish them both.

16. What are your writing strengths?

I plan. I have pages and pages of planning and research and scribbled lines of dialogue and prose. I know exactly where I'm going with my stories and so the ending always pulls together the strands in the story. There are always hints and clues as to where I'm going, you just gotta pay attention.

(It's OK if you don't. It's rare someone comments on what is supposed to be a throwaway line and wonder why it's in there. Hint: it's because it's not throwaway.)

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

More of a weakness for me I think - but consistency. I am a feast or famine writer. I knock out a fic in a week (Only Fans) or I have to drag it kicking and screaming from its coccoon of bedsheets (bank fic)

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?

If I need to do it then I am putting out pleas on Tumblr for a native speaker to translate the line for me

19. First fandom you wrote for?

"...I plead the 5th."

^ what she said

20. Favourite fic you’ve written?

Don't make me choose between my babies.

I am super later to this so open tag!
