On the bright side, I wrote more fic than last year! I wrote a Hart of Dixie ficlet, a Harry Potter three-sentence fic and posted a one-shot for Sanditon in March. (It makes for a total of 2,694 words.)

On the Table, Hart of Dixie, AnnaBeth/Lavon, post 2.13 ‘Lovesick Blues'. Summary: After AnnaBeth, er, went into Lavon’s place. Teen, 290 words.

About that. Not long. Skipped the questions again. )

I have managed to repost more fic here and at AO3 over recent days, and to update the text on LJ and ff.net where necessary.

I found I’d saved this link to a real The Washington Post article from 2018 about nostalgia for The West Wing, specifically channelled through The West Wing Weekly podcasts. It’s around the time of their live tour when they were discussing the end of season 4.

I’ll try to do this disc by disc, after this post, but a guest asked a question about the characters’ choices at the end of this ep in response to my fic about it, and this seemed like a good opportunity to get my thoughts about Walter and Paige at the end of this episode down.

I posted two X-Men: Dark Phoenix ficlets over the weekend. One was ‘broken promise’ a Scott POV prompt fill responding to the events of the movie, and the other was ‘The Most Dangerous Player on the Tour’, a tennis AU take on the events of the movie. Jean being the player in question. This is what happens when I go to see X-Men Dark Phoenix on the closing weekend of the French Open. I’ve started many tennis AUs in my time, but never posted any before. I suspect no actual newspaper would publish anything like that, but it was fun translating characters and their mutations into the world of tennis.

I saw that people were doing a first lines meme just as I was about to post the above – dilemma! What do you do? I swept through my first lines of the last 10 fics on AO3. Some I liked more than others. I was chuffed that they were all from 2019.

Fine. I’ll do the last lines meme.

I posted The Art of Getting Along, a Sky High, Warren-centric ficlet about friendship yesterday. It was inspired by the prompt ‘Any fandom, getting along with someone in your friend group that you don't particularly like.’ Read more... )

2019 has been a wasteland of TV dramas I wanted to watch so far, so I perked up when I heard about this: a spy show set in post-war London. Now, I’ve seen it, I’m less enthused. spoilers )

I intended to continue last week’s ‘space’ theme for Music Monday, and link to Blur’s Far Out, but I can’t find the album version, which is my favourite. Bah.

It's an appropriate day to do some shipposting, right?

Selina Kyle/Bruce Wayne AKA Catwoman/Batman (most iterations of Batman, but most recently Gotham).

Verbiage )

Phew. If I do more shipposting, it's likely to be less extensive.

For maximum stun effect, Portishead’s cover of S.O.S. (yes, the ABBA song) probably needs to be heard straight after watching the weird, sporadically brilliant High Rise. But if you’d like to hear an eerie, powerful take on the song, click on.

And now for something chirpier! Maybe.

I posted #blessed (enough to set the phone aside) yesterday. Mary Poppins Returns. Teen. Jane Banks/Jack. 456 words. Because I am that person who came out of Mary Poppins Returns with an idea for a modern day AU ficlet!?!?

I posted five ficlets yesterday: Doc Brown’s [Sky High, Medulla]/Career Pathway [Harry Potter, Luna, Flitwick]/The Pop-up Shop [Mr Magorium’s Wonder Emporium, Mahoney]/”Hello?” [MCU, Darcy]/Still Learning [X-Men Alternate Timeline Movies, Hank] - here.

They were written during January, and are in movie fandoms (well, the Harry Potter one is more book canon). Four are definitely gen and one a bit cracky. Three were fills for ‘any, any’ prompts, which is all on my brain. One fandom was new, in that I wrote X-Men alternate movie timeline fic – I have strong feelings that there are many subtexts to the X-Men, and I suppose the newer movies are better at bringing out race and disability issues. I wrote that one at the start of the month and can’t remember where the OCs’ names came from. That and the Mr Magorium’s Wonder Emporium one have been posted at ff.net and AO3.

List the first sentence (or two because a couple of those first sentences are quite short) of each of the last ten fics you posted.
