#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.

Fic Writer Interview

i was tagged (ages ago, oops) by the wonderful @lafaerie to do this 💖

i'll tag @jamesandanthony, @lavellenchanted, @shanastoryteller, @coyotesuspect, @doreyg & @floating-in-the-blue but zero pressure.

How many works do you have on ao3?

96 on my main and 22 on my secondary, but i've orphaned at least another, idk, 60? over the years, and there's some fics lost to the chasm of time that is livejournal and prior out there to never be found again.

What’s your total word count?

351,946

What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

then you'll wake up, your left hand man, pocketful of sunshine, only by chance, when there's no ground. all are shadowhunters/mortal instruments fic, which is a surprise to exactly no one.

Do you respond to comments? Why/why not?

i do initially, and then i am terrible for not replying after a certain time which is something i'm working on. it's entirely an anxiety thing, and very silly, but if i don't answer right away i feel like it's too late? idk, i'm trying to be better at it.

What's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending?

i'm not known for my angst, let's be honest, so i'm going to put end of eras (haunting of hill house, luke & nell) here because it's hohh, angst is a given, and also mayyyyybe still my heart this moment and tell me you'll remember (both glee, sam/blaine) which also deal with character death but, like? in a not totally sad way? one's ghosts and one's immortality/reincarnation soooo. i think they count.

What's the fic you've written with the happiest ending?

as a happy ending truther, this could apply to practically all of them, but let's go with be in my book (bridgerton, penelope/benedict) which is about as fluffy a fic as they come.

Do you write crossovers?

i used to, back in the wild old days of comment ficathons and crossover comms on lj, but i haven't in years. definitely would, just would have to really think it through now.

Have you ever received hate on a fic?

once that i can think of, which was very silly and obviously sent by someone who was deliberately reading fic they weren't going to enjoy.

Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

i have been known to, on very rare occasions. my most recently posted fic is actually 911 buck/tommy smut (find peace in the noise) which i wrote almost entirely because of the group chat. it's not necessarily my go-to, but if the mood strikes.

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

yes.

Have you ever had a fic translated?

yes, a couple.

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

not in years, but i used to co-write a lot with a friend in the lj days. i'm not fantastic at co-writing, if only because i am useless with time management.

What's your all-time favourite ship?

i'm not sure i have an answer to this. i sort of just collect ultimate otps and store them and they pile up, so i don't have just one. some i come back to more often than others, but i've definitely been in too many fandoms to have any less than a dozen.

What's a WIP that you want to finish but don't think you ever will?

oh boy, yeah, any? all? i am notoriously bad about this. if i don't write a fic to completion and then post it, the chance of it getting finished are nil. i have one wip on my ao3 (build it better (the second time around), the order, knights poly) that i started before the second season had aired, and every part of me wants to finish it but...we'll see. maybe one day. the part written docs on my computer for dozens of other fics though? coin toss.

What are your writing strengths?

i think i'm pretty good at characterisation. i like how i write dialogue. i think i'm able to say a lot in few words. other than that, who knows. i have a blast with it most the time? that's definitely a strength.

What are your writing weaknesses?

actually sitting down and writing, let's be honest. but otherwise, long fic and plotting are definitely not things i'm great at. i'm trying to get better at extending my word count, but detailed plots still largely elude me.

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

i try not to, as i am - alas - a lazy english speaker who never picked up another language remotely fluently. and no one trusts online translation tools.

What was the first fandom you wrote for?

either buffy or hp, i can't remember exactly.

What's a fandom/ship you haven't written for yet but want to?

i am currently working on some jack/kent (check please) fics (finally - they are one of the dozen that fits into that otp question), which feels terrifying because i love them so much. i also have a couple of stranger things fics i'm thinking about.

i'm notorious for dropping one fic in a fandom and then nothing else ever again, so i'll write for pretty much anything.

What's your favourite fic you've written?

though the truth may vary (shadowhunters, simon/raphael). (i actually started an author's favourites series on ao3 a while back which felt huge, and i've only put four fics in it, oops.)

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:

The orgs selected least often are The Appeal, Razom, and Violence Policy Center.

In our listed fandoms Good Omens has increased its lead and its lock on the top spot. MCU caught up with Sherlock and Teen Wolf for a brief 3-way tie for 4th place behind HP and K-pop, but has since gained an additional signup to claim that spot, leaving Sherlock and Teen Wolf tied for fifth ahead of Star Wars, Stranger things, SVSSS, The Untamed, and The Sandman.

A handful of signups could still shake things up here, or over in the unlisted fandoms, where the Young Royals lead has been cut in half … see the full list of all 177 write-in fandoms under the cut.

20 Questions for Fic Writers

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

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.

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

................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

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.

[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.

💬🍀💭🤡🌍 for 911 :) <3

💬: Favorite quote from (insert fandom/series)?

i think i'm gonna say "i got out of the ocean for you, for both of you" seeing as that's my blog header rn and i cant think of anything else and i do love it

🍀: Something you wish would happen in (insert fandom/series)?

okay like, obviously canon buddie, but thats such an obvious choice. i wish they would give buck a dog. i want buck to have a dog. i need buck to have a dog. (one of these days im gonna finish a fic where i give buck a dog)

💭: What were your initial thoughts before or at the start of watching  (insert fandom/series), compared to your thoughts now?

my initial thoughts were probably that this show was absolutely wild and i was intrigued. for a little while this was the 'there was a baby in the wall' show for me and my mom just bc that was SO wild. i definitely think i fell in love with it pretty quickly. my thoughts now are still that its a wild show but i love it so so so much and every wild moment is so special to me

🤡: Favorite joke from (insert fandom/series)?

there are a lot of funny moments in this show for sure, its hard for me to pinpoint like, just one joke. oh you know what, does chimney's welcome back parties count? like the rebar cake and then buck calling the second cake boring and the death: 0 chim: 2 poster. fucking hilarious i love it. oh also the cat laxatives and "....IF that was something that had happened" while everyone gives eddie Looks (grocery store scene was a comedy masked in angst guys)

🌎: What other show would you want a crossover with (insert fandom/series)?

hmm you know im not sure that theres any i like super actively want to crossover however i do have a running joke with a friend that the 911s should exist in the same universe as glee and we should get a random cameo of an actual glee character which would be so chaotic and fucking hilarious
