I wonder what would happen...if you used Swords to run a game about two drastically different universes crashing together and getting mixed up? For instance, something like LEGO and Film Noir, or Star Wars and heavy metal Vikings. Each universe involved in the smash-up gets a Mood to itself, emphasizing the elements of that universe which don't show up in the other universe. (For example, the LEGO universe could get Vibrant, while the Noir universe gets Brooding.)
The Overtone would indicate which of the two universes the current scene was favoring, while individual rolls get tinted with attributes of one universe or the other. Double the fun when characters start displaying the attributes of the other universe!
