: Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?
I think so Brain, but you can't write 'Trek Note II: The Wrath of Kira' without first writing 'Trek Note: the Fanfiction.'
The other day, I happened upon a picture of a Death Note/Star Trek Crossover. And (especially after making plans to go see Star Trek: The IMAX Experience tonight) the wheels in my head just started turning...
If you crossed the two universes, L would make a very interesting Vulcan. He is highly logical, rational and for the most part, unemotional. He has the Vulcan build and basic Vulcan appearance. And then comes the interesting part... he's basically a Vulcan lush.
If one can believe the novelization of Star Trek IV, then it's cannon that saccharine produces an effect in Vulcans that is similar to the effect of alcohol in humans. L does nothing but consume sugary things all day. He's like a Vulcan alcoholic, something any Starfleet officer would notice immediately, given his unkempt appearance and odd mannerisms.
But if a Vulcan L on sugar solves cases like Dr. House on vicodin (oh dear... a triple crossover??) then the good of the many outweighs the good of the one. Until he has to detox for some reason.
Of course, if L is a Vulcan, that would make the Wammy House an intergalactic space station, home to orphans from all sorts of worlds.
I still picture Watari and Roger as humans.
Near, given how unemotional he is, would likely be a Vulcan as well. Yes, that's all the universe needs, a crippled genius albino Vulcan.
Mello would be human, but I'd imagine his past is rather sketchy. He'd be the sole surviving member of a shuttle crash, abandoned as an infant and then raised by Klingons. It would certainly explain the quick temper. If he hates you, it's going to be bloody. If he loves you, it's going to be bloody.
And with his love of technology, it would be absolutely hilarious if Matt was some kind of partial borg, a human who was experimented on, messed up, and left for dead. He could have some of the mechanical advantages, but none of the mind control.
Make A an Andorian and B a Romulan (he'd have to resemble L in every way, but act passionately on his emotions) and we have a full cast of characters!
... now I just need a plot. Any ideas?
