prodigal
Requested Topic: If you're wanting to avoid crossovers, then I'll just request something with Avon from Blake's Seven. If you don't mind crossovers, please let Avon run into Holmes.
Series: Blake's Seven, Sherlock Holmes
Due to http://incandescens.livejournal.com/452681.html
It was after 48 hours continuous work on Orac that Avon began to hallucinate.
(Perhaps, he admitted later, sleep might have been advisable, but there had been a time factor involved, as Blake had repeatedly pointed out.)
"It was a man in Victorian clothing," he explained to Cally. "I recognised him from some old books -- pre-Federation stuff, by an author called Conan Doyle. He gave me some very helpful advice. Clearly my subconscious was trying to communicate with me through fictional characters that I remembered from childhood."
He didn't tell her everything the Professor of Mathematics had suggested, though.
(Sorry -- it just struck me mid-fic as to whom Avon would really have admired.)
