This is it, denizens of Philedom. We are nearly done with our Olympics. Damn. I'm feeling misty already.
For our penultimate event, on May 14 we challenge you to write the most absurd possible crossover crack!ficlet, length to be between 100-300 words. Of course, if you are inspired to write a crossover crack! novella, we will not disqualify you, although I can't guarantee an audience. Points will be awarded (between 5-10 points depending oncracktasticness excellence, as judged by our panel of crack!experts,
littlegreen42,
heartequals and whoever else we can rope into doing it.
With the X-Files, it's hard to imagine a really absurd cross-over. Didn't someone already write a Carebears cross-over? If anyone here has a link to the Terrible Cross-over Fanfiction Generator, X-Files Special Edition, I'll edit and post the link here. Otherwise, you're on your own.
The Terrible Cross-over Fanfiction Generator. Just substitute The X-Files for one of the fandoms.
And now, the point competition update!

Oh, and I was going to write an X-Files/Inspector Gadget crossover, but then I realized that I haven't seen Inspector Gadget since I was probably eight years old, so I don't think I can pull it off. But if anyone else wants to write that crossover, they can!

Eeep. That's because I just made it up. Sorry. God, wouldn't it be awesome though? I guess we could just substitute TXF for one of the shows...
Inspector Gadget? That sounds vaguely familiar but I can't even picture him. It's a him, right?
I have two ideas but neither of them are all that cracky and both would need many more than 300 words to pull off. I had this idea to rewrite Rivka T's Fugue for
Maybe I could write one scene.

Um... I probably should have said this earlier, but I'm not entirely sure how the judging process is supposed to go.

Stargate SG-1/The X-Files
Your challenge is to write cross-over fanfiction between The X-Files and Stargate SG-1. The story should use a plot to reanimate Hitler as a plot device.
809 words. MSR, but G-rated. Post-IWTB.
Scully had encountered a lot of crack-pot schemes and heard a lot of insane theories floated during her time with the X-Files, but this one really took the cake.
"I don't understand any of this." She looked across her desk at Skinner and then over at the man sitting next to him. General Jack O'Neill. Air Force? What the hell did the United States Air Force have to do with this case, if it even was a case. "You're saying this organization, the Alliance, has somehow gotten Hitler's remains and has been trying to bring his body back to life?"
"Yes," the general answered. "Actually, they got a fair ways along in the process, too, before we found them and stopped them."
"That's impossible," Scully said flatly.
The two men exchanged glances. "I told you so," Skinner said to General O'Neill.
"Even if it were true, which I'm not saying it is, what do you need me for? Don't you have scientists of your own, people better qualified than I am to verify the identity of this corpse?" Scully demanded.
"We do but they're busy right now with other more pressing problems, all right? Walter here thought since you'd seen something like this before that you'd be willing to give it a look. Scientific curiosity and all. You aren't. Sorry for wasting your time." General O'Neill stood up.
"Jack, wait." Skinner turned back to Scully. "Dana, the technology they used. I think it could help Mulder."
"What technology? There is no technology on this planet capable of reversing degenerative brain disease," Scully said firmly. Since Mulder's brain inflammation had recurred last year, she'd certainly done enough research to know this for a fact.
"Oh but there is." General O'Neill leaned back in his chair and crossed his arms. "Of course, it turns you evil if you use it on a human brain enough times, but once or even twice through the sarcophagus shouldn't be a problem."
"Sarcophagus? That's what the Egyptians used to bury their dead. It's a sort of a tombstone?" Scully was starting to get a headache behind her eyes. She needed to get home to Mulder, too.
"Look, Dr. Scully. You have more than enough training to do the work. You've already been vetted. We know you're clean. You already know where a lot of the bodies are buried, so to speak. And Walter trusts you, which says a lot."
Scully looked at General O'Neill, then back at Skinner. "You're offering me a job."
O'Neill nodded. "We could use your help, Dr. Scully. There are some bad guys out there, ones far worse than the Alliance."
"What about Mulder?"
O'Neill snorted. "You're kidding, right? No offense but your guy's a loose cannon. We'll fix him up for you, but after that, he goes back to his basement."
Scully frowned. "He works out of the house. And his office isn't in a basement."
The general shrugged. "Whatever. You'll need to sign the standard non-disclosure agreements, of course. We'll get Mulder set up for his treatment. He might not even need the sarcophagus. We've still got one of those Gould healing devices sitting around Area 51. You have any objection to re-location?"
She shook her head. She would move to Siberia if it meant saving Mulder's life. "Wait. What sort of healing device?"
The general acted as though he hadn't heard her. "Our main operations are based out of Colorado Springs, but Nellis Air Force Base is in..."
"I'm familiar with the location of Area 51," Scully said, raising an eyebrow.
The general smiled at that. "Yes. I suppose you are. But you've never heard of the Stargate."
"Stargate? No, I haven't."
"Well, that's a long story. Let's get old Adolf identified and back in the ground where he belongs first. We'll send someone to pick up Mr. Mulder for you and then we'll all head to Nellis."
"I haven't formally accepted your offer, General O'Neill. And Mulder won't go with just anyone. He'll resist if strangers come to take him. He's gotten paranoid since the brain inflammation recurred..."
General O'Neill started laughing. "Gotten paranoid? Fine. You head home and get your guy packed up. Can you be ready to roll by say, 1800?"
This was all happening so fast. "Yes. I think so."
"I'll go with you, Dana. I can help explain it to him," Skinner offered.
"Excellent. We'll send our people for you. And Dr. Scully. It goes without saying..."
She would have to lie to Mulder. It would be difficult but worth it, if she could save him. He'd do it for her in a heartbeat. He had done it. He'd forgive her. And even if he didn't, at least he'd be alive and well. Anyway, she wanted to know more about this--stargate.
She nodded slowly. "This conversation never happened."

It's an X-Files/iCarly crossover with Mulder and Scully (I'm imagining them as Season 1, though I fail at writing them) and it ended up around 866 words.
