Functional subject line: writing and grumbing

I posted a ficlet! A Practical Solution (Sky High, Warren/Layla, future fic). It’s wintery, if not Christmassy fluff. First drafted after I saw the prompt, polished and posted on Sunday (yesterday on AO3). I may have more to say about this in my annual fic round-up, but this means I’ve posted something every month of this year.

I caught the first hour or so of the Star Trek reboot movie on telly, and boy, do they borrow from what happens to wee!Spock and fresh-on-the-Enterprise Kirk for Michael in Star Trek: Discovery, not to mention the mentoring of Pike. Was that about reassurance: you liked the movie, now here’s us hewing close to it?

Now this is where my thoughts about episode 2 of Star Trek: Discovery should be, but it’s unavailable for catch-up on All 4. I’m irked, and I’m going to be irked every time they advertise it on E4 etc now. If you want people to watch a show (when you’ve been changing the timeslot) and aren’t making it available online even for a week as I’m used to with some American shows, good luck with the viewing figures. I presume it’s a rights thing, but it’s a bit useless.
