And the creativity demons strike back.

I hate my creativity demons.

I really really really do.

They keep pestering me with plotbunnies that I know will never get written because they're too lazy to actually work out a plot or anything that requires logistics - and of course, this particular plotbunny would be a mystery, so I'd have to script out the details and plan like WHOA. Of course, they haven't given me any real useful details like that, oh NO. Nor will they bother to close plotholes you could drive a truck through.

But still, they will NOT SHUT UP.

So I'm going to kill it by mentioning it here, after which people will get excited and then they won't want to write it anymore.

Basically, what's been gnawing at me for a week now? A Phoenix Wright/Power Rangers Dino Thunder crossover. Phoenix has to defend Dr. Tommy Oliver in a murder case, and the evidence against Tommy isn't that rock solid... but his client cannot supply an alibi. He was kind of fighting monsters at the time.

No, I have no good details, no, I haven't worked out the details of the setup yet (although I know it starts with Hayley and Ethan dragging Tommy to a tech expo in LA), but the idea won't go away. Worse, I got the notion of Maya and Ethan teaming up to investigate - and driving Hayley insane in the process. And they're giving me scenes!

ETA: Changed POV of one of the scenes, it'll make a bit more sense to non-PW fans that way.

( 'I've got a girlfriend,' Trent said, his eyes still closed. 'A really hot girlfriend who is *standing right there.*' )

*sigh* So if this ever gets anywhere - which I doubt - anyone willing to beta?
