Hmmm…

Just read a new echo fic Discovery. She does such a good job writing fics with Luna Lovegood.

Very inspirational… I’m tempted to add Luna Lovegood to the cast of my HP crossover series. I can almost see the scene I would use her in in my head… having her run into Ginny, Buffy, and Co. in London (The next part of my fic “The Other Girl” takes place in and around London)… but I’m sure it would be a fanfic cliche for her to know what slayers are when no one else in the wizarding community (Other than Hermione, her boss, Ginny, and Tonks) has ever heard of them in my BtVS/HP/Tomb Raider/Highlander crossover.

Do I dare do it?

Especially after seeing how well echo “writes” her. I would definitely have to go back and re-read the HP books she appears in… so it would be an ‘honest’ portrayal.


Okay… I didn’t actually write the Luna scene I was thinking of… but I did write what could possibly be the scene before that. But it needs work. The Dawn-Faith interaction feels too much like a scene from “Bond Girls” not “The Other Girl” (Or do I have them behaving the same in both stories? Yikes!)

Early morning fic’ing

Added some more to “Out”… haven’t completely filled in all of the holes in the story but it is getting there. Almost a first draft… Might even finish it this week.

Some excellent comments/feedback (thanks!) giving me some things to think about, things that might need to be tweaked, etc.
