So I decided that darn it I was going to finish my springkink  fic yesterday. I'd just sit down and power through it. And then I'd work on my essay.

Yeah. That ended up as "stay up all night until nine bloody thirty a.m. finishing the thing because of course it spooled out into something huge and then remembering that technically I'm not actually a member of springkink  even though I'm signed up so I can't even post it, skip dee doo." Tell me again how enormously smart I am.

Anyway, most of the people who read this thing (if they read it, hah) will probably read it once I post it to the comm proper, but I like having things organized and in one place so I'm also posting it here. Plus, this way I can just do all the coding now, including the header (it tends to take an hour) and just copypaste it when it comes time to post it in the comm.

So, yeah. Not only is it my first Optimus/Elita fic, it's also my first G1 fic and my first shippy Transformers fic and my first fic involving robot sex of any description. Clearly I've gone completely mad. Also? Not doing this again. Ever. Chaste robot romances from here on out. I swear.

Title: Connections
Author:  that'd be me
Rating: Between PG-13 and R, I'd say - let's go with low R.
Warnings: Robot sex between a male-identified robot and a female-identified robot, plug'n'play, sort-of medical play. A splash of probably ill-handled angst.
Prompt: Transformers (G1), Elita One/Optimus Prime: doing maintenance on each other, washing (no sticky) – My beloved equal.
Wordcount: 2,525 (rrgh)
Summary: Optimus and Elita aren't who they used to be.
Notes: Takes place pre-G1 series, in the early days of the war. Which is why I felt comfortable making Optimus and Elita a bit more angsty here than they are in canon - I figure by the time we hit "The Search For Alpha Trion" they've had nine million years to get over their Issues.

I cannot decide if I should go to sleep or deny myself sleep as punishment for being an idiot and staying up writing fic. Hmm.

Um. Yeah. So I wrote it.

Yes, while I was taking a break from my exam. And, yes, this means I'm going to have to stay up late doing my exam. But you know what? This is the first time I've written anything spontaneously in months. Totally worth it.


Title: Epistemological Mysteries (Or, Your Optics Can Deceive You)
Fandom: Transformers: Animated
Characters: Prowl, Sari

Summary: Prowl ponders perception and receives a Christmas present. Post-ep for "Human Error".
Word Count: 637
Notes: First TFA fic, so...yeah. I really don't know if I've got the characters' voices at all. Advice would be appreciated.

So...yeah. I not only wrote TFA fic, I wrote Christmas-themed TFA fic. Because that's apparently how I roll.

Ooooh I don't know if I want to post this on tfanimated_fic , what if it isn't any good or I've got the characters all wrong? And the Transformers fandom is big and scary and I don't know if I want to get into it yet. I already have one big scary fandom with enormous amounts of canon! Why do I need another?

You know if one of you all was watching this show you could help me with this. *nudges*

fuck yes I finished. oh yeah.

And now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go sleep for the rest of this weekend.

Title: The Strength to Hold On (The Halley's Comet Remix)
Fandom: Doctor Who (Classic and New Series)
Characters/Pairings: Liz Shaw/Martha Jones, Liz Shaw/OFC, Third Doctor, Eighth Doctor
Rating: PG-13/Teen
Summary: Forty years in the life of Elizabeth Shaw, waiting for a paradox to unravel.
Word Count: ~6,600
Original Story: The Strength to Let Go by atraphoenix
Notes: For the first round of who_remix. With many apologies to astrophysicists everywhere for my more-or-less winging it with regards to their profession, and especially to Charles T. Kowal for co-opting his work to make Liz look good. Many thanks to livii and eponymous_rose for all their help in giving this fic direction, beta-ing, and listening to me angst about this far too much.

And now I really, really must sleep. Why do I always post fic late at night? I shouldn't do that.

Happy Valentine's/Singles' Awareness/Hey Look Cheap Candy Day to all and sundry! You are all excellent, excellent people, whom I adore and am glad to know. *spreads the love*

Anyway, slightly randomly: A (long) while back, I did that "three fics you think I'd never write" meme. Predictably, I half-completed all of the requested ficlets and then forgot about them, because I just sort of fail at having an attention span memes that way.

I've been trying to finish up old memes lately, since I have quite a few of them backlogged, and I came across the document with the requests for that meme. Most of them are still in incomplete bits, but nentari  requested Jack/K-9, and the snippet I wrote for hers actually a)was finished and b) sort of stands on its own.

And, well, I haven't posted anything to whoniverse1000  in ages and ages... (We're at 218/1000 as of my posting this, by the way. Keep on writing! We're 1/5 of the way there!)

Title: Castaways
Ship: Jack Harkness/K-9 Mark II
Rating: PG/All Ages
Words: 212
A/N: Post-ep for "The Parting of the Ways". Also, crack.

( Here in the Whoniverse 1000 ficbucket )

Possibly cross-posted to my Teaspoon ficbucket as well.

And now I must go out and legitimately accomplish something, now that I've spent two hours reformatting the stupid ficbucket line-by-line, bloody HTML. *grumble* Happy Valentine's to all!

I...kind of considered not posting this, because today has already produced a downright bizarre level of Three-related content. And I didn't want to be spammy.

I've never thought that about my old-school fic before.

And then I realized that this must be how some fanwriters feel every day. It's kind of awesome.

Title: Made Up Your Mind
Fandom: Doctor Who (old-school)
Characters/Pairings: Third Doctor/Jo Grant
Words: 673
Rating: PG-13 for non-explicit sex
Summary: All of time. All of space. Show me. After Llanfairfach, the Doctor dreams.
A/N: Written for the anonymous kinkmeme at sizeofthatthing, prompt was "Three/Jo, the Doctor dreams about Jo post-The Green Death". This is me, owning up. Thanks to livii and rhia_starsong for being betas par excellence and holding my hand/cheering me on through this whole sordid affair.

Off to class; back soon.

 I'm really thinking about disconnecting my internet after today, except on a strictly as-needed basis, because I'm still wasting so much time and procrastinating on my work and I really shouldn't be doing that. 

But, since I'd already more or less wasted today, I decided to make a pretense at getting something done. And so I finally fixed up that Five/Adric fic I wrote way back when, because kayliemalinzawas lovely enough to beta it for me and I just never got around to making the changes she suggested. Maybe this'll even get the writing mojo flowing again.

I'm already running late for something, so I'll have to cut and run before I can do the whole dwfiction/Teaspoon/who_otpthing, but I figure I may as well post it here so it looks like I got something done today instead of fiddling around the internet.

And now to do some actual damn schoolwork.

Title: Block Transfer Computations
Fandom: Doctor Who (Old School)

Words: 987
Summary: He hasn't been thinking about what came between before and after. Episode tag for Castrovalva.
Warnings: Angst. Present tense. Math. Stream-of-consciousness and the deliberate grammatical errata that implies.

Crossposted. Later.

*cuts and runs*

Title: Concerning Multiverse Theory
Fandom: Doctor Who (Classic)
Rating: PG-13/Teen

What? It's a ficbucket; it's a catch-all place where all the commentfic I write for a single challenge will be posted. They'll all be tossed in here as they're written until I run out of space. Hence, bucket. Shut up, that's what I'm calling it.

In this case, this is the ficbucket for the whoniverse1000 challenge; various commentfics of varying ships and varying lengths will be put up here as I post them in the main thread, for the sake of organization.

Watch this space for more, and while you're here, go contribute some fic to whoniverse1000; every little bit helps, and if there's nothing you like in the requests, you can feel free to write any ship that hasn't been written yet! /pimp

Title: You Really Should Have Specified
Ship: Third Doctor/Liz Shaw/Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart
Rating: PG-13/Teen
Words: 364
A/N: I'm...probably not going to post this in the comm unless of course the Season 7 OT3 doesn't make an appearance in the next week or so; in fact, I'm probably going to hell just for writing it. And besides, I really ought to be writing a Doctor other than Three, just for variety's sake. But this rather demanded to be written, so...here it is. *hides face in shame*

Title: All Manner of Surprises
Ship: Third Doctor/Delgado!Master
Rating: PG/Not-Quite-All-Ages. For implications.
Words: 451
A/N: Um...I'm not sure what the Doctor and the Master are doing together. Call it a Claws of Axos AU where they're traveling together, if it really bothers you. But without the Earth getting destroyed, because that puts a rather grim tone on the whole proceedings. Er.

Inspired by, but not a response to, a prompt at the anonymous kinkmeme at sizeofthatthing.
