This idea struck me in the shower this morning, and I just had to write down at least a teaser for it. Maybe someday I'll actually write it.
Once upon a time, a beautiful witch left her magical world to
marry an ordinary, non-magical man. He was a devoted, hard-
working husband and loved her very much, and she him, and so she
broke the rules of her magical world by showing him that she was
a witch. He didn't like it, at first. Nor did he like most of
his in-laws, once he learned of them. But he coped, and he
adapted, because he loved his wife.
And they had many many happy -- and magical -- years together.In
time, their marriage was blessed and the witch had a daughter.
She was a special little girl and a witch like her mother, as her
parents learned soon enough.
The little witch girl grew up in the non-magical world, although
she knew of her magical relatives, and she learned well how to
use her powers. And unlike some of her mother's family, she
never thought ill of the non-magical people among whom she had
grown up.
Then, in 1995, she learned from her mother that she had a distant
cousin, a boy who was as magical as she, and that he needed help
against an overwhelmingly powerful foe. He could use family,
however distant, at his side, she said. His own parents were
dead, she added, and he had been treated badly by the non-magical
relatives who had given him shelter in his youth. He needed to
be shown what *true* family was like. And another witch to help
fight the so-called "Dark Lord" certainly couldn't hurt.
The young witch thought about what her mother had told her, and the
suggestions she had made. She spent a day and a night consulting
her other magical friends and relatives, getting their insights and
hearing their opinions. And in the morning she made her decision.
Which was how it came to be, a week later, that Tabitha Stevens
arrived in England, seeking her cousin, Harry Potter.
LOON 'N' TOON PRODUCTIONS PRESENTS
A TEASER/SEED:
HARRY POTTER AND THE CALIFORNIA BLONDE
I did a bit of research after writing this; as far as I can tell with Google, there are only two Harry Potter/Bewitched crossovers in existence on the whole of the Web: Mischievously Yours by "featherxquill" and Tabitha Stevens in Hogwarts by "scholcomp25"
Both are terribly short, but the first is quite nicely done; the second, however, is an abandoned prologue and rather ineptly written at that.
The lack of crossovers between these two sources strikes me as quite odd -- they are quite compatible, and you would think more people would think to write crossovers between them.
Anyway, as it's unlikely that I'll get to this as a serious project any time soon, anyone who wants to take the idea and run with it is welcome to. Some background information to save a bit of effort: Tabitha was born in 1965; she has a younger brother, Adam, who was born around 1972 and would be considered a squib. Her family clearly specializes in wandless magic. If I were to pursue this myself, I would ignore the 1977 television series "Tabitha", if only because it's horribly out of continuity with Bewitched -- it has a 20-something Tabitha when she should be no more than 15 years old at that point -- except inasfar as I like the idea of Tabitha looking like Lisa Hartman Black.
Ideas I was considering:
Samantha herself not playing a big role because she is home attending an ill or dying Darren (parallelling both actors who played him)
Endora as a closet Death Eater, or sympathetic but apart because Voldemort is tacky
Doctor Bombay and Poppy Pomfrey having a rather... tumultuous... history
Uncle Arthur and Snape in a snark-off
Cho, Hermione and Ginny suddenly very jealous of the beautiful blonde woman who is spending way too much time with Harry.
Things like that. -- Bob
Edit: Finally got around to fixing the wrap issue that Yuku caused oh so many years ago. And of course, since this was originally posted there have been other Potter/Bewitched crosses. Still, I want to finish this one someday. And correct it, since Tabitha is a Connecticut girl, not a California girl. At least she is if we're ignoring the Tabitha "sequel" series. Which we are.

Well Bob, we're out of room in The Legendary. We got Sharon Kov in this morning but had to kick someone off. They hadn't been there in a while, but still...
So, did we want to start an auxillary? Marianne Mac Hine is in a position she could start one. We could move less played toons over there. This could also give us access to more teleporters once/if there's a base.
I open this for discussion.

I just finished watching fate / stay-night.
(spoilers below)
And I was absolutely certain of the fact that Archer == Shiro. This would be accomplished by simply going back in time with Saber. Que semi happy ending and making enough of a historical impact to be summoned by Rin. So many things would then be neatly wrapped up (at least in my opinion) that were left open in the series.
Now that it sprung into my consciousness and wasn't fulfilled on screen I can't get to leave. So I set it loose here in hopes that someone else will be able to run with it.-Terry

It's not really relevant to anything, but... "Don Henley Must Die" I think by Mojo Nixon (it sounds like him) was on my playlist earlier and stuck in my head - except that lately the lyrics that keep looping through my head are "Ron Weasley must die." Not that I'm espescially hostile to Ron, or anything - I don't want to kill him any more than the rest of the main characters in canon, and fanfic portrayals vary as widely as anyone else - but then I don't have any special antipathy for Don Henley either, and the song was stuck in my head for hours before it turned into a crossover. There's probably enoguh that it could be turned into a full length filk of the song, and possibly enough "Ron getting knocked around" footage from the movies for a music video... but I know I'm not going to bother, so if someone else wants to see it, they'll have to do it on their own.

Sooo, one of those spur-of-the-moment things...
Wide Receiver, Bella Fuego, Minuet Mac Hine, ElectroEagle, and Superball ran the Katie Hannon TF earlier today. Along with one stranger...jeez, I forget the name. V...v...something Vixen, since we needed six to start.
(As I pointed out at the start, she matched our colour scheme. The ideal pick-up member!)
Laughs, good times, multiple archvillain hammering...a couple of team wipes, but we made out okay. Cool stuff.

Doug only learns that he's been visiting fictional universes in DWX, if I remember correctly, which is why the concept of him meeting Bugs Bunny tends to keep getting shelved/killed/forgotten. After all, he knows that the LT-verse is fiction, and him living it would ruin the plot.
Even though transfictionality is taboo until then, what's to prevent transdimensional fictionality? In English,
Why isn't Doug looking for more Looney Tunes?
DWII- set in the 2030s. Surely Warner Bros. wouldn't let a series that important stay idle for another three or four decades?
Besides, *our* universe has seen the occasional LT release since the Year Of The Walk...Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines...
