Okay I'm going to go a little indepth but this is how it works in my mind.
Once you cross one element from one story, fandom, etc. Everything in both fandoms is FACT. Unless you the author make execptions and explain to the reader, watcher, etc, what has changed or isn't true. Anything can begin a crossover, a Character, a letter, object, planet, animal. Once you cross the two, or more fandoms you are in control of the story!
Hope that makes sense, believe it or not it came to me in a dream!
that *does* make sense. I suppose it's like anytime we create a 'verse of any sort. We (as authors) set the parameters of the world it'll take place in and go from there
In a way it's a very free canon- set 1995- preseries NCIS and SPN so next to no knowledge of the characters (as they appear currently) is needed. But in another way- OMG creating OC's and a whole universe *AUGH*
Now, I know why I never attempted anything like this before. I don't think I've even seen a preseries NCIS that's not a 'how Gibbs and DiNozzo met' story (canon says Tony was a cop in Baltimore where Gibbs found him and hired him on at NCIS. There is a brief mention that before Baltimore, Tony was in Philly and before that Peoria.) So, randomly, I chose Peoria for my crossover story. Why? Because I am INSANE.
IL. No idea why Tony was there though- We know he went to college at Ohio State, before that Rhode Island Military Academy, before that lived with his family in NY (Long Island)

of course, if I could just figure out where the story was going that might help...

The Impala is - possibly - like Jack and a fandom of its own?

One of these days I will plan a story out before I write it. One of these days
