So. Um.
If one were, absolutely hypothetically, writing a Doctor Who/Rocky Horror Picture Show crossover, in which Ten and Donna landed on the planet Transsexual pre-movie and Ten got kidnapped by Dr. Frank-n-Furter and forced to help him find the Secret of Life while wearing a sparkly corset while Donna had to save him by leading the biggest and most rousing musical number that Transylvania had ever seen...
...what would one do for a title? Not that I'm actually writing this, or anything, because I am a good student and am doing schoolwork and stuff. Obviously.
1. A line from one of the RHPS songs. (Personal favorites including "Then At A Deadly Pace (It Came From Outer Space)" and "Come Up to the Lab (See What's on the Slab)". Lines from "Time Warp" are way too obvious.)
2. Some cheesy pastiche of B-science fiction and old-school serial titles (Doctor Who and the Curse of Frank-n-Furter! Doctor Who and the Time-Warped Transylvanians!).
3. Something a bit more meta, in keeping with RHPS itself ("The Doctor Who After-Hours Novelty Musical Revue" and the like).
4. ...wow, let's see how many more people we can offend. Go on. Let's just see.
Also, is there any way of doing this besides songfic? Because not only can I not write songs (which I'd have to, because having Donna invent the Time Warp would be a cop-out), I can't archive it on Teaspoon if it's songfic.
...which doesn't matter, because I'm totally not writing it. Ahem.

Also, it's slightly depressing trying to find fluffy fic of one's pet pairing to read as a late-night pick-me-up, only to realize that one has pretty much already read all of it. Including drabble-tag stuff, kinkmeme stuff, and stuff one has written oneself. The lot of an old-school shipper is not a happy one, Internet, let me tell you.
