Happy new year! This will be a shorter post that in past years. ( Read more... )

On Sunday, I reposted With those lips (it'd be a waste) (Dark Angel. PG-13. Max, OC, Original Female Characters, Alec. Max/Alec. Words: 2,929. Summary: Girl talk. Flirtation. Realization. Response.)

I wrote this back when I was capable of writing fics above the 2,500 word mark, and it was first posted in May 2006. It was the next fic to be reposted (the old version is up on Livejournal, but this version can now also be found at AO3 and ff.net too. I went back to it that weekend my plans changed at the end of February. Apparently, I’d been editing it in September 2021, although when I read through it in February, that seemed to have involved introducing more punctuation errors. I think I set about editing more on this go around. My sense in doing so is that this fic says more about me then than I realised.

I’ve made a list of all my fics that are currently only available on my LJ or ff.net, so at least I know the scale of it. None of them are Dark Angel fics. I can’t promise to repost these fics any faster than I have done. I know I ought to try importing again (I don’t think I did back when I started on Dreamwidth) because there are reviews and meta that probably only exist there, but I haven’t minded editing old fics before reposting them, it’s just everything else that goes along with that and the time and energy for it. On the other hand, I’m not really writing fic now.

Well, I wrote a three-sentence fill. Original, OFC/OMC, fluff. Ice-cream melt But there isn’t a sff twist or anything to it.

Then I watched the BAFTAs ( Read more... )

And then, during the week, while watching The Ipcress File (I’ll get to that) I saw that Sanditon is coming back…to Britbox. Oh, ITV etc, that’s not enough to make me subscribe to it. I wonder if it was only after Bridgerton that they got the second series.

My contributions to the Three-Sentence Ficathon this month (I was several days, if not weeks, behind everyone else and I have yet to look at the second post).

For the prompt ‘Harry Potter (books, EWE), Draco/Luna, bittersweet’ 112 words. PG. ( as if we were other people )


For the prompt ‘harry potter, ginny weasley, size is no guarantee of power’ 80 words. Universal. ( The Little One )


For the prompt ‘10 Things I Hate About You, Kat Stratford (and optionally Patrick), any’ (Kat, Mandella, Kat/Patrick). 102 words. Universal. ( Options )

For the prompt ‘lotr, sigrid, queen!sigrid’. Triple fill. AU. 256 words. PG. Summary: Three ways Sigrid became queen. (  Hail, Sigrid Queen )

I posted a ficlet! Old, Forgotten Things (Ghosts (TV) ensemble, gen. Summary: It’s hard to remember things when you’re trying to reunite your head with your body or when Thomas is being really annoying.) I drafted it when I saw the prompt, back in April, when I got the central idea. I’ve kept coming back to it, managing to bring in more and more of the ghosts (sorry, Robin!) Seeing on Saturday that the second series is airing tonight (yay! I may not watch it live but I will watch it) gave me the boost to stop dithering and edit it again with an eye to posting it.
