Fandom Mashups (30)

Fandom Mashups is a feature hosted by Lunar Rainbows Reviews. There's a different scenario each week, and you choose a "dream team" of five characters from five different fandoms whom you think are best suited for the situation.

This week's topic is:
You found a map that seems to lead to hidden treasures (Pirate Booty!) Who's part of your swashbuckling team?

I had some difficulty thinking of pirate-y characters this week (note to self: read more books/watch more movies & TV shows with pirates in them), so I just tried to come up with people who I think would be good at the treasure hunting thing.

  1. Jack Sparrow (Pirates of the Caribbean): If we're going on a swashbuckling quest, Jack is definitely coming with! But we may have to hide some of the rum.
  2. Lila Bard (A Darker Shade of Magic): Lila's career aspiration? Pirate. She doesn't need any convincing to join this party because she's all about going on an adventure.
  3. Harry Potter: Accio treasure! OK, finding it probably isn't going to be that simple, but if Harry can find the Horcruxes, he can find anything!
  4. Gansey (The Raven Cycle): Yeah, I know I've mentioned him two weeks in a row, but I. Love. Him. Also, when he sets his mind to finding something (or someone), he doesn't give up. Ever.
  5. Superman: Because you never know when superhuman strength and x-ray vision might be useful in locating the treasure, especially if it's very, very well hidden.

  1. Holy sh!t, how did I forget Lila Bard?! Man, I suck hahaha! Seriously brilliant pick there Lee^^ Of course, I adore that you went with my beloved Harry - you're right too, if he can find Horcruxes, he can find ANYTHING! And Gansey! He'd search far and wide to get us what we need :D Superman's another clever pick, you'll have some treasure found in no time ;)

    1. I'm practically drooling waiting for A Gathering of Shadows to come out next year, so Lila is on my mind like all. The. Time. (And so is Kell.) XD Sometimes I'm still in total awe of how Harry, Ron, and Hermione tracked down all the Horcruxes. If I'd been tasked with that job, Voldemort would be ruling the world right now, lololol.

  2. A Pirate would be my immediate recruit. Then I remembered Robert Langdon and Nicolas Cage in National Treasure. Woot!

    1. Oh, nice! I ran out of pirate characters quickly and so had to think a little outside the box, lol.

  3. Superman is a great addition! I wouldn't have considered him but the x-ray vision is great. Harry too would definitely be invaluable. Jack Sparrow is the ultimate pirate so I love seeing him on the list. I'm very late with mine, but it'll be up tomorrow.

    1. I definitely couldn't leave Jack off of this list; it was tailor made for him! I'll be over to check out your post in a few; it's been a really busy week, so I'm only now just catching up with comments.
