A Christmas Story
Dec. 25th, 2021 04:06 pmYou know how I was wishing for a Dortmunder/Leverage crossover fic? Well, just for funsies, I went and searched AO3 for Dortmunder, and found something that's almost exactly that!
Not actual Leverage, but a Leverage-style heist by the Dortmunder gang, and it's a Christmas story besides!

Dec. 20th, 2021 09:37 amSo I woke up this morning with the perfect fan fic crossover in my head: Leverage meets Donald Westlake's Dortmunder.
Think of it: Nate and Dortmunder arguing the plan. Dortmunder wants to keep it simple. Nate keeps adding complications. Hardison and Wally-the-butterball bonding over hacking and orange soda while Elliot and Tiny eye one another warily, each sure they could take the other but neither willing to make the first move. May views Sophie as some exotic creature, while AnnMarie is sure she's met her in DC at some point. (She has. Several times, under several different personas.)
And Parker? Parker is tormenting Andy Kelp. Picking his pockets, cloning his phone, breaking into his apartment. Just because he's a generalist thief, and she's better at it. Also? His charm doesn't work on her, mostly because she doesn't notice he's trying.
Stan Murch is watching everything with amusement from the sidelines, occasionally shaking a little salt into his one-and-only beer, to bring back the head. And waiting for them to tell him where to drive Lucille.
Would somebody write this for me? Please?
