Fulgent Engineering by deepandlovelydark
- Crossover: MacGyver (1985)
- Recommended by: pointillist
- Status: Complete
- Synopsis: MacGyver wanders a hundred years back in time, and ends up signing onto a zee-farer's ship as a mechanic. There, he takes the place of Sunless Sea's Tireless Mechanic, and starts trying to build the Fulgent Impeller. Fantastically characterized OCs round out the rest of the ship's crew.
- Notes: nothing beside remains is a complete sequel of comparable length, branching off as a sort of AU. It's about MacGyver seeking Mr. Eaten's name. Yes, that MacGyver. Yes, that Mr. Eaten's name. No, I don't know why this Crack Fic premise works so well.
- Notes: There are also a good handful of sequels and related works, some of which are random oneshots, some of which are crossovers with Stargate SG-1 or Doctor Who instead, and some of which are larger stories in various states of completion.
