As briefly discussed on  the EP forum, I felt the need to try my own 100 character crossover.


"There's so much we don't know," says Godot after arriving, "but take this," he says, handing me a pressed metal button.



I have no idea whether this would be the best place to post this, nor if anyone else is even remotely interested in the idea, but there ya go.

I like it! :)

Her niece cried, “Please stay!” As Aunt Victoria silently began to climb the mountain, her writhing stomach worsened.

I love you guys!  ;D I'm working in THREE!

If you choose to snort God, turn to page #20. If you choose to have sex with God, turn to page #134.

(It has to be exactly 100 character, I take it?)

Yes, not including spaces. And YAY! :)


Are general fantasy ones allowed?

As the orcs approached, Samwise clutched his dagger and tried to remember his lessons. “Stick ‘em with the pointy end!”

As I understand it though, it is stories that are a crossover between stories on EscapePod and PodCastle/Pseudopod. 

Here is my attempt:

What kept Edward Bear trekking up the alien hill to save the children were the heroic tales he was once told about Sundae.

Ok, it's been edited to 100 and a little obscure, but

While I fiddled with my glass eye, I calmly told the demon, “First there’s a lion dance troupe we need to see. In England.”

Okay, this time I didn't count the spaces :)

“Fishy bitches!” Moon Doggie growled, as the mermaids tore his board to flotsam, and snapped needle-like teeth at him.

(Apparently, I want to write some more nautical fantasy.)

I think this is done right.

Sir Hereward called to Mister Fitz, "Have you ever seen a painting this color before now?" Right before falling silent.

I'll play!

I submitted this one to the Drabblecast as a Twabble, but haven't heard back yet. It fits your bill.
