shallowness: Kira in civvies looking straight ahead (Nashville irresistible Juliette Barnes)
I wrote a fic, The History Boys and Girl some days ago, (Nashville, gen, universal), which came to nearly 2,000 words. That’s long for me.

As I say in the notes, I wanted to have Scarlett, Avery and Gunnar bask in what they’d done and for there to be some lead-up to Gunnar speaking for the band with Noah, so I wrote this missing scene, giving the characters (more Scarlett and Avery, who have their mental blindspots too, of course) a moment of introspection after the gig about all that had happened. The title comes from the play ‘The History Boys’ and was inspired by Gunnar’s line about how the three of them have some history, which is one way of putting it. I’m glad I got it out before watching the next episode – I feel as if I played within the canonical lines, but of course, things moved on, especially for Gunnar and Avery.

Title: The History Boys and Girl
Fandom: Nashville
Rating: Universal
Characters: Scarlett O’Connor, Avery Barkley, Gunnar Scott, Micah Brenner.
Summary: Missing scene for 3.08, Two Sides to Every Story. Set between ‘Well, I’m happy to fill in for you, if you’ll have me’ and ‘Well, the three of us have, uh, history’.

Disclaimer: Not mine, don’t profit.
Author's Note: I just wanted Scarlett, Avery and Gunnar to bask in what they’d done and to have a bridging scene between the performance and Gunnar’s phone conversation with Noah. 1,881 words. With thanks to gpgurl50 for the beta; any mistakes are mine.

Would anyone be willing to beta read a Nashville fic? 1,800ish words, gen, featuring Scarlett, Avery and Gunnar - a missing scene from 3.08.

I found myself in the weird position of checking I could find Dave on the EPG in the house the other day. (An explanation for people outside the UK, Dave is the name of a free-to-air TV channel that claims to be the home of witty banter, in an attempt to fight people like me’s long-established perception that it’s the place where ‘funny’ panel shows and Top Gear air on repeat.) It’s now the home of Parks and Recreation, which was on last night in the much more sensible 8 p.m. slot than BBC Four’s late-night one - seriously, I remember an interview where the cast were criticising it.

But although 8 o’clock on a Monday night is a good slot in theory, in practice, it was a relief I’d also checked that Dave has a catch-up facility online, because my life being what it is at the moment, there was no way I was going to be able to watch it live. So I’m probably going to sneak in a few more season 3 Leslie/Ben fics before I do – does that make me a bad fan? A selfish one. I want Dave to be glad they bought the rights, but I also want to read more fic before canon moves on.

(In other TV news, I plan to catch up eventuallyon Tuppence and Tommy’s adventures and Person of Interest, which is back this week. SHAW! BEAR! MACHINE! Strong likelihood of helicopters and defenestration!!!)

What I did do last night was catch up on Nashville

My reaction to the news about Harry Potter and the Cursed Child:

‘What, she’s doing a play? Huh, of all seven books? How is that going to work? Adults playing the kids? Multiple actors? Puppets? How long is it going to be? Is it going to be a musical? Or a flop? Wait, it’s a new story. Huh!? Is Harry the Cursed Child?’

And a slow realisation that I’m probably going to end up seeing it, like the proverbial moth...

I found out via a BBC News report that interviewed a girl, red-headed (to remind us of Ginny) and a boy, blonde (to remind us of Draco) asking for their reactions. All of the film footage used was from the early films for maximum cuteness.

I caught up on Nashville last night - I know the next episode is literally airing now, but I don't feel like watching anything straight after The Good Wife, when I want to process.

I read that the show has been renewed for the third season. I wasn't really aware that that was in doubt. I think it's improved, and got me to care more about more characters. Plus, after souring me on my favourite ship in the second half of season 1 (although I still think they're endgame), it gave me a new favourite ship in the second.

It really is better to be able to watch one episode at a time. A double bill was too much, as I was complaining all last year.

Admittedly, the show’s filling a soap-sized gap for me, but I also love that it’s about (mainly) women being creative and what that means for them.
