Like, Avengers as 1930s detectives and gangsters and so on?

I am intrigued.

That would probably be the best way to go in order for Steve, Bucky and Peggy to be more than just a flashback. = ]

I'm imagining a few camps:
P.I.s
Government Agents (Either working to stop Nazi/HYDRA spies pre-WW2 or working to take down gangsters ala Eliot Ness)
Gansters

I think Sam would be a PI that gets pulled into something bigger than he imagined.

Or Sam could be a barnstormer who moonlights as a PI.

I have a whole AU where May is a noir detective, so.... yes. yes yes yes.

(If I manage to be around!)

OMG, May and Sam running a detective agency and screw your social discrimination. =D

(She'd be the boss, of course.)

Y E S let's do it!

We'll see if anyone else is interested. If not I'll just run with Sam and if you have time, we can make it work.

Though I may have to play with a Falcon/Hawkman Amalgam in the sandboxes. = ]

I checked the dates, and I'll almost definitely have the time then! Sounds good.

I'm kind of rotten at coordinating with big groups, but sure if anyone else wants to join in! I just might be flakey or goofy.

I think those who want to participate being in the same AU is the intention, rather than a big plot. I don't think the logistics would be possible for a big group, really.

But a bunch of guys and dolls sounds like fun to me.

Agreed. My take is that if you want to have a big plot, you can but it's more of a "the world shifted" kind of thing. So May and Sam for example could be working on the case of the waved hand, while Steve and Bucky are dealing with the Italian mob trying to muscle in on the neighborhood.

We all, in theory, just share the world and don't have to share the story.

[BTW: I am about to run to the gym but hopefully will be able to do some tagging with Sam here in an hour and a half or so.]

Cool. I'm home from work and should be up at least another three hours.

Ah, A+! So just figuring out who knows who from what

Yeah, exactly. The thought of trying to do a big plot makes my eyes cross, personally, but a bunch of us being from the same AU? I can do that.

(Sorry for the weirdness of my previous comment--typing on the phone doesn't lend itself to elocution.)

Eeeheehee. I'm intrigued!

I'm also no good at noir style, so I'll probably end up tossing Thor into the DC/Marvel/etc superhero mashup AU Debi was suggesting over in the other post. But if anybody wants to know (or know of) noir!Thor back home, I am totally fine with that. (Mayor Odinson's golden boy, playboy and athlete and as a poor second a businessman, while the dark family secret is his younger brother's seedy adventures putting hiw own sharp business acumen to use in building a mafia empire?)

I love this! I am also strongly tempted with a Sam Wilson/Carter Hall mashup, Falconman?

Belated - I am intrigued!
