Gargoyles (Cartoon), House II: The Second Story (1987), Selfie (TV), The Solve It Squad - Tin Can Brothers

Request 1 by fenellaevangela
Fandom: Gargoyles (Cartoon)
Characters: Brooklyn (Gargoyles)
Character Requirement: My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Prompt:
Prompts:
+ One element of Brooklyn's story on the show is how he would clearly like a mate and but none of the potential love interests that he meets (ex. Maggie, Angela) work out. While this is dealt with in the wider canon, it doesn't have any conclusion in the cartoon itself! If you haven't read the comics (or just like AUs) I would love to read your idea for a romance for Brooklyn. Any character is welcome, regardless of gender or species.
+ The villain of the week has separated our heroes into small groups and each one has to solve clues or fight off something in order to escape . . . and Brooklyn is stuck with Owen, who he doesn't particularly trust and who doesn't have access to Puck's magic.
+ What Brooklyn runs into while patrolling alone one night.
Prompts that reference the comics/lore:
+ I've been obsessed with <a href="https://gargwiki.net/TimeDancer" rel="nofollow">Timedancer</a>, Brooklyn's time traveling series, ever since Greg Weisman revealed his list of proposed <i>Gargoyles</i> spin-offs back in the day. If you're familiar with the concept, I would adore a fic set during Brooklyn's adventures through time. There's no need to make it match any particular stories Weisman has discussed - anything with Brooklyn stranded in time will be fun!
+ Related to the above prompt: if you're keeping up with the comic series, you might have read the Hallowe'en special where Gnash dresses up as a pirate! At one point he tells some human kids that Blackbeard was totally a gargoyle, actually, and well . . . the story of Brooklyn (with or without his family) timedancing onto Blackbeard's ship sounds fun!
+ Your take on Brooklyn meeting Katana for the first time.

Request 2 by fenellaevangela
Fandom: House II: The Second Story (1987)
Characters: The Virgin (House II), Jesse McLaughlin (House II), Charlie Corielle (House II)
Character Requirement: My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Prompt:
<b>Please give The Virgin a name.</b> I'd like my gift to portray her as a full character with a real name (please NOT a name that Jesse or Charlie choose for her). Thank you!
Prompts:
+ Through more time travel shenanigans, the gang get to meet Gramps before his (first) death. Maybe they help him on an outlaw adventure or they're accidentally the reason he meets his wife . . .
+ a simple domestic fic of these characters just . . . figuring out how to live their new lives together.
+ At the end of the movie, are they really in the Old West, or is it an alternate dimension similar to the Old West in the same way we saw an alternate dimension similar to dinosaur times? What I'm saying is, maybe Jesse and co. encounter bizarre creatures or magic post-canon.
+ Charlie assumes (as I would argue the film is implying) that Jesse and DeVasquez's character are a shoe-in as a couple and feels like a third wheel – but the three of them are displaced in time, reliant on each other, so he doesn't know how to give them space without isolating himself. When the others figure this out they realize Charlie has missed something. OT3, Charlie/Jesse, or Charlie/Virgin would be great here!
+ Jesse left the crystal skull just . . sitting on top of Gramps' grave. Fully visible. Perhaps a nefarious person in the Old West gets their hands on the skull and the characters get pulled into their schemes, or someone in the future finds the skull and the characters get roped into whatever happens to them.
+ An outsider POV of Old West characters finding Jesse and co. very peculiar.

Request 3 by fenellaevangela
Fandom: Selfie (TV)
Characters: Henry Higgs (Selfie TV), Eliza Dooley (Selfie TV)
Character Requirement: My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Prompt:
Prompts:
+ Selfie in spaaaaace. I'll happily accept a fusion with something like <i>Star Trek</i> here (bonus points if Henry ISN'T a vulcan, or if BOTH of them are vulcans) but less straightforward options are also welcome! For example, they get abducted by aliens. Or a NASA AU?
+ Eliza and Henry solve a mystery together. Either goofy or serious!
+ Saperstein sends Henry and Eliza as the company's representatives to a pharmaceutical conference in Vegas. Tropes ensue! I'd love to see something like Only One Bed, or In Vino Veritas, or Woke Up Married. Consider: one of them wakes up married to SOMEONE ELSE, and the other helps them figure out how to deal with it.
+ Post-canon, Henry trying to be clear that he reciprocates Eliza's feelings and coming to the conclusion that he needs to make a grand gesture.
+ Henry is a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zerophilia" rel="nofollow">zerophiliac</a>, and now that he and Eliza have become a couple it's time for him to explain to her what that is - and hope she's okay with it.

Request 4 by fenellaevangela
Fandom: The Solve It Squad - Tin Can Brothers
Characters: Any
Character Requirement: My gift must feature all of my chosen character tags (if 0: any from tag set)

Prompt:
Prompts:
+ A crossover with another detective canon! You have my permission to pick whatever you want, although I think another child/teen detective canon would be neat. Maybe even <i>Scooby-Doo</i>! The Squad could go to some sort of convention or other meet-up for former child detectives? Or they cross paths with the other detectives on a case?
+ Post-canon, the first time one of the Squad tries to convince the others to take a specific case.
+ Keith, techically homeless, wrangles himself an invitation to stay with Gwen's family when his van has to go in for repairs. Is it just awkward? Does he get along weirdly well with one of Gwen's kids? Maybe there's a threesome with Gwen and her husband that she later insists was a one-time thing? You tell me.
+ Gwen is invited onto a talk show as a guest and the hosts request she bring one of her fellow Squad members with her. She doesn't really want to share the spotlight but she also doesn't want to refuse. Who does she bring with her and what do the others think of that?
+ Esther says they're out of the detecive game, and they're just working handing out samples at Cosco. But what they don't tell Scrags is that they're <i>also</i> the person that people (. . . who work or shop at Cosco) go to when they have a problem to solve . . .
+ What was it like for Scrags going through the FBI academy and working with the Bureau when he was semi-famous for solving crimes with a dog and three other kids?? Were people impressed or did he have to put up with bad jokes? Were there times when he used his Squad experience to help solve a case?
+ The Squad try to solve a case in Hatchetfield. Or one of the characters is related to someone in Hatchetfield.
Prompts with <b>spoilers</b> for the Grunch:
+ After gearing all night for a threesome with Gwen and Charity, a post-livestream nightcap leads to Keith sleeping with Scrags and Esther instead
+ A story with Esther's actual parents (I find it so funny that these people started solving mysteries together when Esther was in middle school but no one has met their parents??)
+ The Squad Goes to Brazil
&nbsp;
I <b>Do Not Want</b> Harry Potter crossovers, she/her pronouns for adult Esther, holiday stories that don't acknowledge the characters' judaism, or any descriptions of mutilation, especially dismemberment, of people or animals. You can reference Cluebert's death, but please don't describe the details!
