AACK! Attack of the most awesome killer plot bunny with the pointy, pointy teeth!

[seren_ccd]

Oh, dear Lord. I was minding my own business, walking out to get some lunch. (Tuna sandwich and crisps, if you're interested) And I was attacked by the killerest of killer McCoy/Chapel plot bunnies.

McCoy/Chapel in a Romancing the Stone AU.



McCoy is Jack Colton, of course. Chapel = Joan. Gaila = her sister. Uhura = her awesome publisher. Scotty = the Danny Devito character. Nero = the bad guy. Chekov = the crazy Columbian drugrunner, except he's Russian!

Look at this dialogue:

Joan Wilder: Excuse me, mister. Can you tell where can I get to a telephone?
Jack Colton: No, lady. I don't any idea. I'm sorry.
Joan Wilder: But it's very important that I get to one.
Jack Colton: Well, we've all got our problems today. Don't we?
Joan Wilder: Can you tell me where the nearest town is?
Jack Colton: English speaking? How about Miami?
Joan Wilder: Will there be another bus?
Jack Colton: Another bus? This is it.
[looks around a deserted, dirt mountain road]
Jack Colton: You've got rush hour.
Joan Wilder: I need to get to Cartagena.
Jack Colton: Cartagena? Angel, you are hell and gone from Cartagena. Cartagena's over there on the coast.
Joan Wilder: But they told me this bus...
Jack Colton: Who told you that? Who told you this bus was going to Cartagena?
Joan Wilder: That man...
Jack Colton: That nice man who pulled a gun on you? What else did he tell you?

They'd say this stuff to each other!

Am I completely crazy? Should I delay my the sequel in the Going to Georgia series and focus on this? Because, it feels crazy. Does someone else want it? You can have it! Oh, heck.


I told you I didn't want to work today.
