Title: Death and the Captain by Trinity Day
Pairing: none
Author on LJ: trinityday
Author Website: none listed; she gives a link to her FF.Net profile
Why this must be read: I've seen surprisingly little fic about what Jack did while he was marooned on that godforsaken island, which seems odd, when you think of it. (For instance, if he came to the island with himself, his compass, and a pistol, and he still has himself, his compass, and a pistol, with what exactly did he "barter passage"?) But that's hardly the point of this fic. If this fic has a point, it's Death -- Neil Gaiman's wonderful, cheerful, GothGirl Death, who really should make an appearance in more fandoms.

Dammit, don't give me ideas for YET ANOTHER Farscape crossover.

But thanks for the rec. Kicks much ass.

...from what I've seen of Farscape, Death would fit *perfectly*...oh, sorry. ;)

Glad you liked.

*siiighs* I'll just add it to the cue. *gets out looong list entitled "people Stark should meet" and scribbles down something*

I liked very much, and even remembered to tell the author so! :D

Sandman has got to be the easiest fandom to crossover. It's practically canon, what with the talk of other realities.

[lizamanynames.livejournal.com]

And now your icon is giving me ideas... (or has that been done? It's probably been done.)

But you're right, I've seen Sadnman crossovers with everything and they nearly always work.

Well, I'm sure that there's been a Sandman/due South crossover simply because Sandman is so easy to crossover, as we've already mentioned. I don't think I've come across it, if there is one, however.

As for the words themselves, if that's what you meant, they're directly from one of the episodes.

Oh, I know it's a direct quote, I meant Sandman/dS Xover.

lizamanynames mentioned that she found her way to my story through here, so I had to come over and thank you for the rec! I really didn't expect it, especially considering how long it's been since I posted that story.

[jenavira.livejournal.com]

You're very welcome. :) It's a story I always remembered; I like the way Sandman and Pirates fit together.

There's a certain je ne sais quois to both of them that makes them fit nicely together.
