P&F/Avengers ponderings
May. 8th, 2013 06:35 pm I know, just yesterday I was commenting that I have seven stories I'm actively pondering, and that number's probably gone up since then - two more FFFF bits are starting to gel.
And I'm starting to get ads that (I assume) are for the forthcoming P&F: Mission Marvel, with Phineas in a Captain America costume and Ferb dressed as Captain Britain. So I think that if I want to do my Avengers crossover, sooner is probably better than later.
What got me thinking along these lines was the similarities between the typical Darcy/Steve relationship and the Isabella/Phineas relationship, where the women is madly crushing on a guy who she at least sees as too innocent and pure to directly talk to about these things. So that's the start of our cast - Phineas Flynn as Captain America, Isabella Garcia-Shapiro as the snarky intern. This totally works for me.
So let's fill in the rest of our cast. We need a womanizing gadgeteer for Iron Man, and Ferb has been described as a ladies' man, so he's the man in the can. Baljeet turning into Buford as he hulks out is too appealing to pass up, there's our Hulk. Vanessa would probably be a good Black Widow, but she's not a redhead - I'm torn on whether to give it to her anyway, or hand it to Candace instead. Monty would totally be a better Hawkeye than Jeremy - he's even got the acrobat background - so that's another point in Vanessa's favor. We still need a Thor - I haven't watched the Thaddeus and Thor episode, but hey, the names match, so that's a decent first cut. (It also gives Thor a villainous brother, which could be useful.)
Supporting characters: my wife's first reaction to this fusion was "Who's Coulson?" and my answer pleased her: Perry. This makes Major Monogram be Nick Fury, and Carl's female equivalent is Maria Hill. Gretchen's got reddish hair and gets shipped with Ferb, so she's Pepper Potts. We can pick somebody to be Jane - any of the Fireside Girls will do, so let's use Adyson.
For an enemy, I don't see how we can pass up Dr. Doomenshmirtz. (Which would be a point for Candace/Jeremy as BW/Hawkeye, but hey, BW is supposed to have come over from the side of the bad guys, right?) Normbots instead of Doombots.
So the cast is mostly worked out. Now I just need to figure out WTF to do with it...
