Both breathing-orbitals valence-bond theory and symmetry-adapted perturbation theory have to deal with non-orthogonal orbitals, so why not combining them for a multi-reference method for intermolecular interactions? I will show some quite crude (too crude) approximations as a first step in this direction, for obtaining the electrostatic E100 and the E200 dispersion term, the simplest ones in the SAPT expansion.
