idk if this was said or not i wasnt reading too closely but what if we do a flashback and then end with a black and white screen. we could do like 2 sides. you know how some crossovers do one episode from one view and then the other episode the other view. i think that would be cool. but since this is psych maybe more psych centric?

Actually I did say that about the flashback and everything but that's ok
I really don't think it matters though so we could go either way.

Okay...I'll try writing that "Inconceivable" idea - McNabb, Inigo and Shawn in the woods.

And PsychLuvr and PsychFreakILoveJamesRoday had a cool idea about the flashback and the black/white one...that sounded interesting too.

EDIT: Sorry PsychLuvr..you did mention that too!

Ok so we'll have it start with flashback and every "commercial break" break start with the flash back black and white picure, sounds like a plan! Everyone agree?

Agree

Agree[even if it is my own idea]

(on the topic of the Psych/NCIS crossover)

It would be cool if the flashback with Young Shawn had something to do with NCIS... seeing them somewhere when young and asking who they are (not the Gibbs team, obviously, just a few random NCIS peeps)... Henry deriding them as not real cops in some way or another... It would also be a good way to explain what NCIS is for those of us that aren't very familiar (as you said you wanted it to lean to more Psych) though dialogue

Great idea! I am totally gonna use that idea for my fanfic[as long as you dont mind] but I figure since you are telling me about it, its ok!
I loving jumping to conlusions! Its part of my daily workout

LOL, nope, don't mind at all.

good, I dont need to be sued for all my pineapple pudding pops! lol

this Psych/NCIS thing is looking really good!! I'm really excited about this! Great work everyone! i know im not doing a lot of help, im sorry

Its ok slackers are an essential part of every team!

Snipet of script:

Ziva: Shawn, lets not jump to conclusions with this

Shawn: Are you kidding? Jumping to conclusions is part of my daily workout, how else would I get these toned calves?

[Jules glances at his calves]

Tony: Nice one! *fistbump*

[Gus looks in diselief and Gibbs smacks Tony's head]

Tony: Sorry boss anyway........

Thats a little of what I have right now, comments appreciated

That is funny! I like it so far

I'm diggin' it!

Thanks! Here is what I'm thinking for the whole flashback scene.......................

1987
Shawn is sitting at his dad's desk rumagging through it

Shawn: Where did he stash my cards?

All of a sudden a team of NCIS team walks in and into the cheif's office passing Shawn giving him a glance.
Shawn's dad come back to his desk

Henry: Are you looking for those cards again, I already told all the guys not to play with you unless they want to loose all their money again.

Shawn not paying any attention still looking at the NCIS guys

Shaw: Who are they, someone needs to tell them their jackets have a typo. How could they think thats how you spell CSI?

Henry: Shawn thats not CSI thats NCIS. It stands for Naval Criminal Investigative Service

Shawn staring at him confused

Henry: They're navy cops they just investigate Navy crimes. They're incompetent I bet no of them has ever even done a real patrol in their life.

Shawn: I think they're cool

Henry: Shawn, They're not cool

Shawn: Not to you, forget being a cop I want to be a NCIS agent

looking very proud of himself while he says this and Henry just puts his head in his hands trying it have it make sense

Present day

Shawn is sipping coffee contently annoying Lassie

Shawn: Lassie please!

Lassiter: No, Spencer, I will not chip in to buy a pineappl upside down cake for the office!

Shawn: Ok, but dont complain to me while the rest of us are eating pineapple upside down cake and you don't get any.

Lassiter: I won't complain

Shawn: Do you know of its delicious flavor?

Lassiter: If you value your life you will leave right now.

Shawn: Fine, but your missing out!

Shawn walks away

Lassiter: Wait, Spencer,..........

Shawn: I knew he couldn't resist

Lasiter: Give me my damn coffee mug

Shawn: I dont see your name on it

Lassiter: It right there it says Lassiter in big bold letters!

Shawn: Thats ridcuous! Don't be a mullberry bush weasel!

Lassiter: Spencer!

Cheif calls from her office

Cheif: Lassiter here now!

Shawn: Bye Lassie!

Jules walks up to Shawn

Jules: Hey shawn!

Shawn: Hi jules, whats up with Lassie today? He wouldnt pitch in for the pineapple upside down cake.

Jules: You annoy Lassiter more than anyone, including his ex-wife, and you think he's going to give you money for cake.

Shawn: Yes

Jules: Your way too optamistic

Shawn: No, just blissfully ignorant

The NCIS crew walks in the door

Jules: Who are those guys?

Shawn: Seriously?

Jules: Yeah I've never seen them before

Shaw: They're the Naval Criminal Investigative Service squad

Jules looks at Shawn confused and shocked

Jules: You know that how?

Shawn: I dunno, look at that head guy he doesnt look happy, and the dude on the end nickname's gotta be McGeek.

Jules: You do know.......anyway they're probably here because there was a dead Petty officer on a boat in the marina.

Shawn: Why haven't you told me about this?

Jules: Why do you think I called you to the station?

Shawn: I thought you missed me.

Jules: At any rate I think they might be taking over the investigation and I know Lassiter is not going to be happy about that!

A yell comes from the cheif's office "WHAT?"

Shawn: I think you may be right about that

Black and white still of Shawn and Jules looking a little frightened



Thats as much as I feel like typing right now! OW! *hand spasm* Must stop for now*hand spasm*
Comments?

I like...nice opening.

I'm liking it so far

Shout outs continue (yes..still hyper..I'm sick in bed...so typing is all I can do for the next few days)

This is for McLovintheburn and Spenstar

The Chase - Henry's former partner, Mick Burn, or to Shawn and Gus, Mick "Lovin' The" Burn, needs a babysitter for his 28 year old daughter, Cia Burn. Cia has gotten in a little trouble in the past, so when Mick must head oversees for a business trip, he asks Henry and Shawn to check in on his daughter. Easy right..not. The first night after Mick heads on his trip, Cia is gone. Henry, Shawn and Gus have an "adventure in babysitting" that they will never forget.


Lassie and Two Smokin' Barrells - Due to Lassie's great work on Cinco Reyes' gang, Lassie has received lots of attention. Unfortunately, not all of it was good. There is a hit out for Lassie and Chief Vick hires Shawn and Gus to "halt the hit" before it can even happen. Of course, Lassie is none too pleased with the Chief's decision. McNabb is also assigned to help with the investigation along with a transferred officer from LA, Sharon Spenstar. Together, the gang will thwart the hit and find out who put the finger out for Lassie.

Thwart..LOL! I finally got to use that word!

I love Lassie and the Two Smokin Barrels! Shawn could take the job of bodyguard a little too seriously, try to man-handle Lassie...and the rest is comedic history. That would be awesome

If we were to have a bodyguard Shawn I have a feeling we would see a reapperance of the Bounty Hunter vest!

Thanks for the positive feedback on the crossover! Any thing you guys want to be different in any way, so far?

Nothing for me.

and yes...the vest would return..the funnest part about that idea is that Lassie, Gus and Shawn will have to stay in the same room all night. And you know that won't be pretty.

You'll see when I write it.

especially Shawn hair "routine" every morning and his pineapple cravings! Just having Shawn near Lassiter would drive him crazy all night,
This is gonna be good

A hit out on Lassie?! That's awesome!!! Yay for Lassie angst!

thats awesome!! sorry i havent been here for a while, ive been very busy. but thats awesome!!!! i am definitely lovin the Psych/NCIS. you rock!

Thanks I try!

Okay...here's the begining of Inconceivable. The flashback is still being tweaked. Let me know what you think..and when I finish it..I'll pop it on a fanfic site. I just need a little guidance. Here you go:

Act 2 INCONCEIVABLE

*Present* McNabb and is friend, Inigo Montanya hiking at Point Sal.

Inigo: So how long do you think it will take us to get back to the campsite.

McNabb: Probably one more day. We did go all the way off the ranger trails. We have at least 10 more miles before we hit the marker for the main trail.

Inigo: Nice. We can take our time..unless you need to get back.

McNabb: No..my wife is spending time with her sister in Boston, and I'm not due back at the station until next week.

Inigo: Great. We can do a bit more fishing before we...

*Inigo stopped in his tracks*

Inigo: What the....

McNabb: Inigo?

*Inigo was starring off in the distance.*

Inigo: That's strange. There's someone over there..see..sitting on that rock. I thought we were the only ones out this far. And they don't look like they should be out here.

*As they got closer, McNabb recognized who was sitting on the rock.*

McNabb: Shawn? Shawn Spencer?

Inigo: You know this guy?

*Shawn looks around, but he was not startled*

Shawn: Excuse me?

*Shawn was calm and collected as if he were waiting for something or someone. He was dressed in his regular clothes, green button-down shirt, jeans, and his black Pumas. There was no sign of camping equipment or camping apparel around him.

McNabb: Ah, what are you doing here? Where is your gear?

*McNabb felt like he was "placed" here. He had no mud or dirt on his sneakers, no evidence of treking through the woods, but his 5 o'clock shadow had two days of growth. He appears to be a bit groggy.*

*Shawn was looking at McNabb as if he did not know who he was*

McNabb: Shawn, it's me. McNabb.

Shawn: McNabb? McNabb! McNabbster..Slap-Happy McNabby...right..ahuh..ah

*Shawn looks at Inigo*

Shawn: Oh and Lassie..yah..I know Lassie. *Shawn smiles at Inigo*

Inigo: I'm Inigo Montanya, Mr. Spencer. McNabb's friend.

Shawn: Very fancy...yeah..whatever you say, Lassie. So what are you doing here anyway?

McNabb: Ah..hiking. What are you doing?

Shawn: Waiting apparently.

Inigo: Waiting for what?

Shawn: Oh I don't know...for the price of gas to go down?

McNabb: Do you know where you are?

Shawn: Sure..ah..*Shawn looks around a bit confused* ah...suppose you tell me where I am.

*McNabb and Inigo exchanges looks*

Inigo: You are 10 miles off the main hiking trail of Point Sal.

Shawn: *Laughs* Really? *Shawn's eyes start to close*

McNabb: Yes and we.. Shawn..Shawn! *Shawn passes out.*


Okiedokie...let me know your thoughts..I will finish it offline and post it on a fanfic site once I get feedback. Thanks! BlackTsChica (whose last fanfic was written like 5 years ago..I feel very rusty!)

Edit: Oh.and I tried to fix the 'blocks' and typos - I wrote in in Word first. LOL

Well Chica, you've got me hooked! Now you'll have to add more!

Honest Concrit?

I would definitely recommend a beta before you post on a fanfic site, because there is so much promise there, but also some typos and grammar stuff that can easily turn some readers off on fanfic sites (none too horrible, but even a few can stop the flow of a story). Feel free to message me if you want some beta help.

The other concrit I'd have is that you might consider forgoing the "script" format and just writing the story... some of your descriptor/direction lead me to believe you could have so much more of a story there that you haven't told. (Example: *Shawn was calm and collected as if he were waiting for something or someone. He was dressed in his regular clothes, green button-down shirt, jeans, and his black Pumas. There was no sign of camping equipment or camping apparel around him.)

I'll be honest, I have a feeling that if I was familiar with "The Princess Bride" (all I can remember of it is the giant rat... which I hate as it appeared in some horrible childhood nightmares) I would get some type of joke that I'm missing out on...

BUT: I do think what you have so far is interesting and fun and I really want to see more! I *like* it and all the concrit is just in hope that it can be even better or suggestions for you to consider

Thanks Winky..I do need a beta...and was not sure which way to write it (story versus script). I'll try the story next time.

For the Princess Bride reference..it's part of the "shout outs" to folks on the board (I changed the last name to protect the innocent).

So you will be seeing emails from me.

Thanks!

Ooh..and thanks PsychRulz!! I'll get better!!!

BlackTsChica... I really want more of this script. It's good so far! But like winky said, you may want a beta or just do some proofreading. Spelling mistakes bug me

Will do..sorry...I didn't have one..and I just stuck it out there.

Winky will be my beta.

I love it! Better than half the fanfics I've read today[thats a compliment I'v read a LOT of fanfics today] Its summer I have nothing better to why not?
Anyway enough with me, I love it I hope when you finish you tell us what fanfic site its on I have to know the ending!

Thanks.I needed feedback to make sure I was on the right track. I'll improve for sure now that Winky is helping me..and I'm seeing now that typing while supine is not good for spelling. LOL! (did I make you laugh again, Acubound..now it's making me giggle!)

Thank you all for your feedback..and when I get it going and with Winky's mad Beta skillz with a Z, I'll let you know where I post the full fic.

Again..I truly appreciate it!!!

(whoa..I feel loopey again..time for another nap and more Gatorade!)

Very nice Chica!!! I love the Princess Brideeness. I can't wait to see more!

"Okiedokie...let me know your thoughts..I will finish it offline and post it on a fanfic site once I get feedback. Thanks! BlackTsChica (whose last fanfic was written like 5 years ago..I feel very rusty!) "

I second the constructive criticism that Winky Cutto gave you about ditching the script format and going for straight story. I know that, for me personally, when I read fanfics the script thing takes me out of the world the writer is trying to create. It "flows" better as a story. It also gives the writer more freedom to be creative, in my opinion.

I will also confirm that Winky is an AWESOME beta. I e-mailed her my recent fanfic and she was really fast with a reply. She caught a ton of grammatical errors and misspellings that I had overlooked. I immediately corrected everything and edited my story online using her suggestions, easy as pie (pineapple pie?).

Nice start on your fanfic! I'll definitely read it when it's posted. I am curious to see where you go with it. And YEAH for a Buzz fanfic!


Texasartchick

This is for you, Inigo! It was one of the shout-outs to the folks on this board. So even though dude is sitting on a rock (and the title Inconceivable), the only "PB" reference will be your first name. So this fic's for you.

I'm working on the next part tonight so my mighty beta can help me. Whoohoo!!

Thank you too, Texasartchick! I look forward to the help and I am extremely thankful for everyone's feedback! It will definitely make for a better fic (and one without typos! LOL!)! Yes, this Buzz fic will also have some Lassie-ness in it. So ah, wait for it...wait for iiittt!!!!

My friend has been bugging me to put out this idea for an eppy so here it is.

The halloweenish/thriller eppy they do in every season

They find a body in an old mansion with what appears to be a vampire bite mark on their neck and wrist, cause of death appears to be external bleeding but the blood is nowhere. No signs of a struggle or anything that suggests it wasn't self inflicted, but once again where's the blood? So the SBPD call in their paranormal expert/psychic to try and make sense of it, when the next day another victim is found in a haunted house run by the local high school, he was suppose to be playing Draculas victim, so no one in the haunted house thought anything of the bite marks, how he looked pale, and the puddle of blood around him. Then at the end his friend came in and found he wwas dead and once again nothing to suggest that it wasn't self-inflicted. SO what is going on in Santa Barbra?

Also Gus would be freaked out, refuse to go into haunted mansion or haunted house[shawn tricks him into going into both], all of a sudden were a lot of garlic and always have a steak handy.

That's awesome! Along the lines of Shawn (and Gus) of the Dead, so there would have to be some significant differences. Lassie is afraid of vampires, maybe? If Lassie is afraid, and we all know how superstitious Gus is, it could be their big chance for some Lassie/Gus bonding time. It could make for a good halloween episode. I can just see lots of garlic jokes and Shawn berating Lassie for pulling his gun (after all, everyone knows that regular bullets don't work on vampires...)

Ooo great line, with the bullets the idea of Lassie and Gus both being scared is a good potential bonding moment! Also if Lassie tried to pull a gun on a real bat at the mansion then a fake one at the haunted house! Shawn would have a feild day mocking Lassie and his BFF!!! Awesome addition to the idea! Exclimation point!

Exclamation!

"Lassie is afraid of vampires, maybe? If Lassie is afraid, and we all know how superstitious Gus is, it could be their big chance for some Lassie/Gus bonding time. It could make for a good halloween episode."

I agree it would make for a good Halloween episode, but I think it would be tremendously out of character to have Lassiter afraid of vampires. Too down-to-earth for that. He's much more likely to not believe in them, or anything else supernatural, at all (much like his opinion of one so-called psychic). Actually it would still work as a plot to have Lassiter not afraid of vamires and Gus terrified of them, therefore he is constantly clinging to Lassie for protection. Have poor Gus latched onto Lassiter for dear life like a panicked schoolgirl. There's your opportunity for Lassie/Gus bonding time! Then you can have Shawn berating both Gus and Lassiter about the gun vs. vampire thing. It would be much more in character for everyone involved and there's plenty of room for humor.



Texasartchick

True. I thought it might be out of character as well...but then again he is afraid of snowglobes...so I figured it's a possibility

I concur! Fears aren't always rational, ok they are never rational that's why they are fears, so even if it is out of character it is still within the relm of reason, so maybe.

The gun joke though is a must, its too funny and too perfec t to pass up! Lassie would be embarassed/angry, gus a little aggrivated, Shawn satisfied with his mockery, and Juliet giggling because it was funny.

Anybody got any new ideas?

How about a crossover with 30 Rock. Alec Baldwin's character hires Shawn to find out who is blackmailing him. LOL!!

Or Henry is falling in love with a lady, but the lady is hiding a disturbing secret. Shawn is not happy with anyone dating his father, but he feels this lady is not who she says she is.

Or Gus goes to a coin collectors convention and comes home with a few trinkets, a couple of coins, and a tail. Apparently one of Gus' trinkets was a stolen item worth over 3 million dollars. It was stolen the night before and the robber's contact passed the coin off to the wrong person.

Lassie, let me see, I need to think of an idea for Lassie. I'll be back

That would be soo cool. i agree with the whole shawn getting injured thing. It could show the feelings Henry REALLY does have for his son and you can see how Gus and Jules react. Shawn's apartment would be so Amazing! And I really wanna see his apartment!

Wal-mart has these funny little pineapple lamps and everytime I see them I laugh and think of Psych. I want them to do an episode where Shawn and Gus are walking around a Wal-mart type store and Shawn is carrying this stupid pineapple lamp, trying to convince Gus to buy it and they happen upon a case.
