bagheera_sanI just read an utterly enchanting fic that I HAVE to rec even if no one on my flist is going to be interested.
Five Times Pippi Longstocking Turned Down an Offer, and One Time She Said Yes (Pippi Longstocking crossed over with Pirates of the Carribean, X-Men First Class, Buffy, Deep Space Nine and Doctor Who)
Pippi Longstocking is one of my childhood heroes - arguably Astrid Lindgren's wildest, most anarchic creation (even Ronja Robbersdaughter is quite tame compared to Pippi, although to be fair I liked Ronja better). Pippi is hard to explain, but in hindsight, I'd call her a girl trickster and be done with it. She's a not quite natural creature in a very ordinary setting, who bends the rules through sheer force of will and by utterly disrespecting them. Pippi could be a mutant, or a supernatural being or an alien, but ultimately, Pippi is just Pippi, and she fits into all these crossovers perfectly, most of all the Doctor Who one, because the Doctor and Pippi? Are so very kindred spirits.
