They Fight Crime!

[stillsostrange]

cristalia's crime-fighting story is live at Strange Horizons this week.

I checked the file with my first batch of TFC ideas. Snake Charmer was:

He's a notorious voodoo assassin on the hunt for the last specimen of a great and near-mythical creature. She's a mentally unstable red-headed snake charmer with an evil twin sister. They fight crime!

And there was Ebb:

He's a globe-trotting vegetarian ex-demon on a mission from God. She's a pregnant gold-digging deep one descended from a line of powerful witches. They fight crime!

The others I saved are:

He's a suicidal alcoholic cultist with a passion for fast cars. She's an enchanted extravagant medium with someone else's memories. They fight crime!

He's an oversexed dishevelled assassin fleeing from cultists. She's a pregnant French-Canadian Lilim from aristocratic European stock. They fight crime!

He's an obese coffee-fuelled vampire hunter from the Mississippi delta. She's a beautiful thirtysomething college professor on her way to prison for a murder she didn't commit. They fight crime!

Which of these should I work on next? I'm partial to the alcoholic cultist or obese vampire hunter, but I'll take audience suggestions.

The cultist and the medium!
