Yay - another excellent story from Clya Brown - and with marvellous illustrations too :grin:

I'd call it a treat, Chris - not a threat.... :wink:

Very entertaining! Well done, Clya!

Oh damn... :oops:

I applied the correction. Thanks Marion!

Thank you, everyone! I confess that I adore Elaine, and have been meaning to try to find something for her to feature in for ages - and Rick seems to be extremely popular with everyone else around here, so the solution to the problem was pretty obvious!

Concerning the illustrations, my thanks go to Brindlewhite for her close-up screen-shots of Elaine, and to Carrie for the close-up of the bearded Rick which appears in both montages. I must however make an apology here to Carrie for using hers without remembering to ask first: fortunately she insists that she doesn't mind - but I apologise anyway. (Apart from anything else, I may need to ask again if I ever get around to dreaming up a rematch - though that would probably raise some quite interesting questions about how this multiverse came into existence, given the two shows' conflicting canon histories!)

Fans of both series of the show have to be adept at suspending their critical faculties when it comes to explanations, Doc. So you shouldn't worry about the 'how', just focus on the 'what happened when' aspect of the story. :grin:

Oh, Doc, you are very sweet...the illustrations were 95% yours...and they were wonderful...as was the story. Rick in a leather jacket on a bike..how could you go wrong? :grin:

Doc,what a great multiverse !

I had no idea it could be done so well - or even that you were such a fan of NCS Ochre :wink:

Since the proof of the pudding is the brilliant Scarlet/Stingray crossovers, all doubts are superfluous.

You could, of course, just write an NCS story and disregard all these pesky OCS influences..... I would regard that as a true crossover :-D

'PESKY OCS Influences'????

Skybase Girl! How could you? :grin:
