Re: a thread on one of my recent posts, I realized that one of my favourite things in the (fannish) universe is Narnia crossovers. They don't even necessarily have to be stellar in-depth amazing well-justified crossovers, although obviously none of that hurts; I'm just fascinated by any Narnia crossover on general principle. See, Narnia is a really delicious world. It's not like, for example, Doctor Who, where you can just impose the Doctor on various worlds and easily handwave it; it's another kind of fun entirely. The text of Narnia is one that's there to be examined and argued with by other perspectives. (For instance, what about Susan? although that, by far, isn't the only direction in which to go.) It's just ... really enjoyable to poke at Lewis, you know?
Or maybe it's just that I grew up on those books. Tolkien may be my foundational text, but dammit, I believed in Aslan. And my inner six-year-old doesn't care that he's lion Jesus; that's entirely beside the point.
The point, in this particular case, is that I want to compile a recslist of Narnia crossovers.
( Six fics: Buffy, Doctor Who, Good Omens, Harry Potter, Highlander, and His Dark Materials crossovers. The AO3 has a lot more than just these; it's simply a selection of fandoms I recognized. Probably unsurprisingly, rather skewed towards Fic About Susan. )
