As the OP for the Doctor Who prompt and the Inception prompt in Round 1, I have been working on coming to terms for my love of Dresden crossovers. (It's a many-step process.) In that vein, I can only suggest:
Intersect + Archive: besties4eva Y/Y?
John Casey/everyone: Gard? Kincaid? ERLKING?
Intersect + Archive: besties4eva Y/Y?
John Casey/everyone: Gard? Kincaid? ERLKING?
Intercrural sex please!
Any M/M pairing is fine, including our old standby, but I'd be particularly excited about Harry/Kincaid for this one.

I really want to see this pairing done. I don't care how, just make it happen, please. Would especially like it if Sanya was called to Chicago for a Mission From God and keeps being thrown together with Harry. Match-maker!Almighty, anyone? Come on!
Marcone/Dresden
John is stalking Harry. Not only that, but he's being doing it for far longer than anyone realizes. Taking over the mafia, organizing crime, running the city - all of it was to help him stalk Harry better. His first kill? The man distracted him from his Harry-stalking.
Yes, this is somewhat of a crack!prompt - heck, you can make it whatever you want - but show me a Marcone who is so ridiculously obsessed with Harry that his whole world revolves around the wizard.

And Marcone finds out what he did and kills the shit outta him.
I don't think we've seen anything like this yet? Maybe for the Pup!Harry 'verse, but that's it.

Independence, home of the beloved author, is part of the sprawling mess that is Kansas City.(the city that cares naught for actual city or even state boundries) I need a fic where a case or some such other takes Harry to Cowtown. (Screw atempts at rebranding.)Really, just mention some landmarks like the Plaza, Swope Park, or maybe he's here during the Rhythm and Ribs festival? Just some KC love to cushion the pain the Royals will put me through. Slashy goodness also helps.
Old leather has a warm, heavy scent. When it's new it has a chemical bite. The texture is smooth and suble under curious fingertips. Someone has a fetish and their lover is willing to satisfy. Pick your ship and have fun.
As various anons were discussing in the John Marcone facts upmeme, Marcone is a man who plans ahead. Always running the numbers, as one excellent fic author put it.
Show me a time when he doesn't think ahead. An uncalculated kiss, an impulsive confession--what would it take? Near-death experiences won't cut it; he's been through too many. I don't want magic- or drug-induced loss of control, either, lovely as those can be. I want to see John Marcone blindsided by his emotions and not able to clamp down in time.
Scenario is up to you. A couple of possibilities that occur to me, which you are free to use, ignore, or twist to your purposes: John thinks Harry is dead, mourns him, and finds him unexpectedly alive. Harry finds a way to wake Amanda (and it works).
...okay, I can't think of any others. But maybe you can, anon! Let's see the Gentleman lose his composure.

So the Baron of Chicago inadvertently does some small favor for Mab, and Mab decides to repay him by - *ahem* - allowing him the use of her Knight (ifyouknowwhatImean).
Up to the author whether Harry comes pre-prepared with faerie aphrodisiacs, as is the exact level of dub-connyness involved, and what Marcone's attitude towards the whole thing is.

...and now I want to step into the story and rescue the poor girl. I would like to see a story in which Humbert and Lolita end up in Chicago. Somehow, Marcone and/or Harry gets to hear about this. Cue epic beatdown, murder, and poor Lo getting fostered with the Carpenters. Yes, I'm a fix-it fic writer. However, you can't deny the poor girl needs it.
We've had a prompt or two about Harry getting shot for Harry (and a few wonderful fills - at least one of which is still in progress! yays! more please!), but this prompt is to reverse that.
John gets shot defending Harry. (or otherwise hurt in a life-threatening manner, since not all of Harry's enemies are mortal.)
John/Harry preferred, of course, but all pairings acceptable. :) Including but not limited to Harry/Other who is just realizing the potential for Harry/John, Harry/Hendricks, and John/Harry/Hendricks.
and I apparently fail at making short prompts. Wow. Go me.

Memefriends, we've had some fic that has come pretty close to this, but we are still in need of the real deal.
So: Marcone, Hendricks and Harry, fucking. Everybody must touch each other! Other than that, everything is up to authornon.
Bonus points for an exploration of a how a relationship between them might work (or, y'know, not work.)

Okay, so, uh, I usually try not to post overly-detailed prompts? But I really, really want this story to exist, and I am never, ever going to write it, so I am posting what I know about it here, in hopes that somebody else decides to write it for me. (And if you want to use only bits and pieces of the idea and ignore any parts you don't want, that is fine.)
So Harry Dresden has set up the Paranet, which connects low-level practitioners, mostly women, it seems like, in an effort to make it easier for them to find help. And he gets a call from the University of Iowa that there is a spirit haunting their Special Collections reading room and stacks. And at first it seems like a pretty standard haunting, and not really worth Harry himself going all the way to Iowa City, especially since they can't pay his usual rates, but then he starts getting phone calls from people begging him to take care of it.
Because, you see, when people come into their power, they stop being able to use computers. And this usually reaches the critical point when they have to give up the internet when they're around their late teens or early twenties, which means there's a whole cadre of magically talented women who were just getting into fandom when suddenly, their only source for fic became the 'zine archive at UI (which obviously has a secret 'zine-lending service just for practitioners who can't go online). So everyone from Elaine to Molly to Georgia to Ivy to Luccio (who is asking for her trainees, not herself, clearly) to Lara to Lily and Maeve are begging him to handle this ghost personally, because the safety of the zine archive is really, really important if he cares about preserving the emotional stability of magic-practicing women all over the Midwest.
...and so he gives in, and then I am not sure what happens, except the archivist who is acting as his guide is (clearly) also a fangirl, and obviously the ghost winds up being the spirit of a fangirl who started her fannish career publishing in those early slash 'zines, who has recently died and is haunting the zine archive because she has passionate yet conflicted feelings about her art becoming part of the public historical record, and obviously there is a lot of squeeing about Harry being a total woobie and full of whumpings, and Harry has to learn at least the basics of slash fandom just so he can communicate with this woman (much to his own sheer embarrassment and Bob's joy, and if you can work him being obliviously slashy in front of the ghost with Marcone or -- ooh! Kincaid, showing up to keep an eye on things for Ivy, and maybe pick up some zines for her! -- or Michael who is wondering why Molly and Charity are so totally invested in this case! -- or Thomas, who Lara has sent along to check into his progress! -- into it that would be awesome,) and oh! It would be really cool if the resolution involved something about truenames and fractured identities - like, he has the spirit's legal name, but he can't lay her with that, because so much of her is bound up in her fandom pseudonyms which are just as much her as her legal name, and he has to trace down all her identities through all the things she's created, because she bound a bit of her soul into every fanwork and every fandom ID, so he has to work out a new theory of names (maybe with the help of Ivy or Murphy or a couple of the more internet-savvy Carpenter kids, or, hey, bring in chat-verse and Butters), that would be so much fun.
...anyway,
darksnowfalling just posted a really neat account of a visit to the UI 'zine library: http://darksnowfalling.livejournal.com/1904.html : if you want actual locational details to work into the story. Because somebody is going to write this, yes? Please?
p.s.: I will beta read if you want. :D I have never been to the IU special collections, but I have been to the UMD one, while it was being run by fangirls. ^_^
p.p.s.: Captcha is 'Lash adept'. Yes, sorry, Lash, dear, I clearly shouldn't have left the Denarians out of this either, I'm sure you read Aziraphael/Crowley whenever you get a chance.

As it turns out, John is really, really ticklish. Hey Bob, know any tickle spells?
Have you ever heard about how an awesome foot rub can be better than sex?
Harry getting off on a foot rub. Harry/Marcone or Harry/Thomas please.

So....I, for reasons unknown, decided to watch the Blade Trilogy and really, how has no one made a crossover as yet? Vampires, check (this would have to be set before Changes, natch). Two guys who appreciate a good leather duster, check. And, in the case of Blade Trinity, Hannibal King (a personal favourite of mine) and Harry each get someone who gets their pop culture references! It's a win win situation! Aaaaaand GO!
I was thinking about the joys of Fem!Harry, when I realized that, if that was the only genderswap that occurred, and if she was straight, there would be a decent chance that poor Harriet would be a virgin by circumstance alone. Because there have been a whole bunch of ladies in her life, but not many guys.
So I would LOVE a story about Harriet being the pushiest, mouthiest, snarkiest virgin ever. Because she has waited long enough, dammit, and if Marcone doesn't get his act together she won't be responsible for the consequences. Or the burned buildings.
Please, Anon. Make my year!

Preferably Dresden/Marcone but this kinkmeme has made me ship everyone, so.
DANCING! I would love someone dancing with Harry or teaching him to dance. Not so much looking for ballroom/formal dancing as "hey, this song has a great beat, c'mere" thing.
And I prefer John if only because that leather jacket-wearing young punk we get a glimpse of in White Night? He can dance. You know he can.
Bonus points for not being in public. IDK why, just like the idea of barefoot dancing to favorite songs.

anon has only vague idea about Ghost story and haven't read preview on principle
Since Harry is a ghost now no mortal boundaries can stop him. He takes some time out of his busy afterlife existence to visit Marcone - maybe to spook him or just to see what is he up to now that Harry is dead. He is surprised to find John if private mourning.
Further development is up to author but I'd prefer that in the end Marcone finds out about Ghost!Harry and helps him return to life.

Based on the hostage scene in Laurell K Hamilton's Skin Trade.
Harry, along with some friends/allies get caught up when bad guys take over a public area, like a charity fundraiser or something. The heroes are told to perform varios acts to get hostages released. Refusals get civilians hurt. I'm looking for a fuck-or-someone-else-dies. Angst is probably unavoidable but a happy-ish ending would be preferred.

Alwaysagirl!Dresden/Marcone. They get hitched. Tell me everything, anons.
Is the world ending? Is it spontaneous or planned? Who marries them -- a priest? a judge in Marcone's pocket? Lea? Does Harry have a ring? Do they argue at the altar/desk/burning crater? Who does the asking? Do they have a honeymoon, or do they just barricade up somewhere in Chicago and fuck for days?
Basically, I want a story about the bits of western christian wedding/marriage tradition that they keep, and the bits that they really, really, really don't.

Let's try for some more Morgan fic. Morgan/anyone, something that shows him in a more sympathetic light.
I had a dream last night it was marcone/hendricks, with marcone worshiping hendricks ass at his desk. And when marcone is finished playing he puts a butt plug in hendricks before zipping him up.
