I was meandering about LJ and found [profile] wtf27  a "Where Crack Comes Home To Roost" community.  Except, where Captain Jack Harkness is concerned, many of their wtf prompts are actually canon...

1) Gender swap.
2) Transformation (animals). (I've already written this)
3) Transformation (inanimate). (Canon for DW- Love and Monsters- thanks [personal profile] mad_jaks!)
4) Wings.
5) Tentacles!
6) Mpreg. (canon for TW, sort of)
7) High school AU.
8) Apocalypse Now. (World's ended twice in canon EOD and SOTD&LOTTL)
9) Supernatural (creatures). (Fairies in canon)
10) Supernatural (powers). (ESP in canon- to an extent- with tech)
11) Fantasy AU (traditional).
12) Fantasy AU (urban). (canon- Utopia)
13) Fuck or Die.  (canon- Day One)
14) Pornstars. (Who doesn't think Jack has DONE this?)
15) Hookers. (see #14)
16) You see, I woke up gay. (NOT an issue with Jack- it's his canon character)
17) Trading Places.
18) Forced Union.
19) Timeshift. (canon)
20) Aliens. (canon)
21) Doppelganger. (canon- considering how many versions of Jack there are in the timeline)
22) Twins or Non-canon Siblings.
23) Out of Time. (canon- the show's already done this- CJH)
24) Slaves. (kind of looks like Jack's forced into working for TW...)
25) Media Crossover. (I've already written this many times over)
26) Spies and Agents. (canon)
27) OMG we forgot ___. (Writer's choice.)

So out of 26 specific prompts 13 are CANON for Jack between Torchwood and Doctor Who and another two (if not more) are completely in character for Jack.  I find that humorous.

always happy to accept donuts... even if my name being taken in vain is the reason for them!

I'm trying to think of a new definition for the word 'blame' but I'm coming up dry...

I brilliantly prodded? You were happily coerced?

happily coerced - is that like leading a lamb to slaughter by feeding it the sweetest clover??

I am shocked, SHOCKED that you would compare my innocent prodding to outright slaughter. I merely encourage you to take a look at all the happy little plotbunnies frolicking out there in the meadow of unusual ideas....
