This is the LAST ONE I'm allowed today. Then I have to go back to my studying (that's why I've been all-around slow to comment today). Really, I should be doing that now. But I saw this at
Feel free to kick me if you see me around for the next few hours, because I've an English test tomorrow and I've GOT TO GET WORKING.
The Work-In-Progress Fic Meme:
(Currently covering only long!fic and chaptered works, not smaller one-shots. Does not by a long shot cover everything I'm working on.)
The Memory Always Lies
Third Doctor: I seem to be in a fobwatch at the moment.
Corporal John Smith: Hallo! I’m the Doctor’s personality while he’s fobwatched. I’m much more compliant and cheerful.
Brig: …I think I kind of like you better.
Fobwatch!Three: Really?
Brig: Well, he does listen to me more than you did.
Liz: *has the lab to herself*
Benton: So someone who looks and sounds exactly like the Doctor is taking orders from me? This is awkward.
Smith and Benton: *are vaguely subtexty*
Eyeless corpse: *is mysterious*
Fobwatch: *is missing*
Wackiness: *ensues*
The Archimedes Butterfly
Random UNIT soldier: *iz ded*
Brig: Looks like suicide, but we’ve got to investigate it anyway. He is our personnel, after all.
Doctor: Actually, he was poisoned.
Liz: And look! So were five other people in the past six-and-a-half months.
Doctor: By the same compound. Which can’t be found on Earth.
Another Random Person: *ded of poison*
Doctor and Liz: But what does it mean?
PlotMonster: O HAI.
Timey-Wimey Stuff: *occurs*
Doctor: You know, maybe if my TARDIS wasn’t broken I could do something about this. Hint, hint.
Time Lords: Nice try.

churchontimefic (Prison in Space)
Doctor: Well, this new planet we landed on looks nice enough…
Jack-Booted Secret Police: *seize*
Other Citizens of Planet In Question: What secret police? Our Scary Dictator Queen is just and wonderful and would never do such a thing.
Scary Dictator Queen: Ooh, I love a man in a kilt. Marry me and be my love slave, Jamie.
Hypnotized!Jamie: I make a right bonnie bride, I do.
Hypnotized!Zoe: I’m through with being an oppressed, thankless tool of the patriarchy. Shapeless jumpsuits FTW!
Imprisoned!Doctor: Does this mean you won’t be springing me from jail so I can go save my husba—Jamie?
Hypnotized!Zoe: Get out yourself.
Other Untitled Doctor Who fic
Doctor and Master: *bicker*
Jo: Maybe we should do something about the insane war god out there thirsting for our blood? Just a suggestion.
Doctor and Master: *grudgingly cooperate*
Doctor: I sort of anticipated being tied up at least once, but tied to you I didn’t see coming.
Master: Stop nattering and help me get us out of here.
TARDIS: *takes an awful lot of abuse*
Little Brothers Chapter 6
Officer Yelina Salas: So it looks like this was a hit-and-run; the driver didn’t even slow down, if the skid marks are any indication…
Detective Raymond Caine: Hey, baby.
Yelina: …Are you trying to pick me up at a crime scene?
Raymond: Yep.
Yelina: And yet this is somehow less skeezy than it sounds. You want to go get coffee?
*later, on the phone*
Ray: Hey, big brother, I’ve almost made it with this fantastic chick.
Horatio: Isn’t this the one you picked up at a crime scene?
Ray: Yeah.
Horatio: …I can't believe I'm related to you.

OMG THIS IS AWESOME
PlotMonster: O HAI.

Plots in a nutshell, excellent.
And just, everything leading up to Horatio's facepalm...heeheehee.
Re: OMG THIS IS AWESOME
I certainly hope so. These are significantly easier to write, what with the ability to encapsulate the plot in about three words. :D
