Finally Going Friends Only.  



 


Hi there.



Not FO for any interesting reason or dramaz, just simply because I'm not sure I'm
comfortable with putting all this stuff out there where any of the people I know could stumble across it.

If you're just here for the fic, it all goes up public.

However, if you'd like to be able to read my journal (can't imagine why,
but people are strange), just comment here and there's no reason why I shouldn't add you back.

i thought i was supposed to be accepting my emotions? well, my emotion is that i'm sorry.  
I will talk about stuffs eventually, but not tonight, because it's almost 4am and I stayed up finishing this and and and I AM GOING TO DIE.

Title: To The End
Fandom: Torchwood/Regeneration
Summary: An AU, based around the events of To The Last Man.
Warnings: This is basically as tame as anything, but it is a crossover, so. I’ve tried to make it understandable for anyone who hasn’t read Regeneration, but may have failed entirely. WHATEVERS. Also there’s a bit of swearing? Occasionally?
A/N: For [info]strangeumbrella 's birthday! ILU MADDIE. This is a bit late, but I haven’t finished anything since February and have been really struggling to write for quite a while. But here it is, thank god, and I hope you get something out of it at least.

There is no other course open to us but to fight it out. Every position must be held to the last man: there must be no retirement. With our backs to the wall and believing in the justice of our cause each one of us must fight on to the end. )
 
 
I Feel: tired

climb the wall to make the sun rise in time, but the night had already begun.  
Title: Causality
Fandom: Being Human
Pairing(s): George/Mitchell
Warnings: Swearing, some violent content. Hops about in time a bit.
Summary: Causality. Noun. The principle of, or relationship between, cause and effect.
A/N: [info]strangeumbrella is an actual life-saver, seriously. I’ve been writing this on and off for about a week, and would never have finished it if it weren’t for her.

A is called the cause, B the effect. )

part two: electric boogaloo.  
A sequel, of sorts, to the last piece; this one pretty much definitely won't make sense unless you've watched Two-era oldwho, or are very aware of its canon.

Title: the Heart is Dumb and the Heart is Blind.
Fandom: Doctor Who
Characters: Ten, Jamie McCrimmon, an original character (who we should probably call "Bobby McPlotdevice" - no worries, folks, he's barely in it).
Summary: Curiosity killed the cat, but one last visit probably won't hurt anybody. Right?
Warnings: I am a big soppy girl. Mention made of Season 6B.
A/N: For [info]ailcia . Please remember how long ago I wrote this, and also that I mean it when I say it's very reliant on some knowledge of canon, new and old. Feedback is love.

it is a fact, jamie, that i do tend to get involved with things. )

i'll show you why i ran away, the other day.  

O HAY YOU GUYS. It's Old Unposted Fic time! I wrote this just under a year ago, and didn't post it because I didn't think there was an audience for it - but a community post I saw the other day suggested I was wrong, so here I am.

(Immense times recently, by the way. Proper post coming soon. I'M SURE YOU JUST CAN'T CONTAIN YOURSELVES.)

Title: The Nights We Used to Linger in The Hall
Fandom: Doctor Who
Characters: Ten, Martha, mentions of oldwho characters, especially Two-era (and particularly Jamie McCrimmon).
Summary: Set, and indeed written, mid-way through series three. Martha just wants him to trust her, just once, without having to fight him for it.
A/N: For [info]ailcia; title/cut-text from a Kay Kyser song she sent me mental with. Please remember how long ago I wrote this, and also that it should (in theory) make no less sense if you're not an oldwho fan, but may be a little bit less fun. Feedback is love.

here we are, just about the same. )

he is dashing, you have to give him that.  
In the middle of all my being-rubbish and being-busy, I somewhat bizarrely ended up writing Torchwood fic. Why? Well, I...don't know. It's a show of dubious quality, and I'm sure there's more than enough fic out there, but I had The Urge for some reason and it just sort of happened. OH WELL. (Apologies for the lack of Tosh, by the way - that's another story, which is to say that it may literally become one. I suppose that depends on if this goes down well or not. We'll see!)

Title: Chronology
Fandom: Torchwood
Pairing: Jack/Ianto
Summary: Various little scenes and moments, interactions with the team, just things that I kind of wanted to add.
A/N: First fic in this fandom, written at speed due to various commitments, usual warnings apply. Much love to [info]strangeumbrella, who was as limitlessly awesome as ever while I was writing this.

chronology is the science of locating events in time. )

i don't feel so far away from you lately, love me on the sly  
O HAI EVERYONE. I has birthday fic for Moog!

Title: Loose Ends
Fandom: The History Boys
Pairing: Irwin/Dakin
Summary: For [info]moogle62 ’s birthday, because special occasions like birthdays deserve some kind of resolution. (I'm really sickly at the moment and can only apologise for all that follows. Hope you don’t hate it. ILU VERY MUCH.) Thanks go to [info]cathamarine and [info]strangeumbrella for taking a look and telling me I hadn't gone [too] mental.

at least i asked. )

you're beginning to write like him  
Arghhhhhhhhhhh. I'm trying to put this up quickly before I lose my nerve - I'm between college and youth theatre right now, and really need to head out soon - but LJ hates me and is making me want to STAB MY HANDS OFF. So anyway, er, I accidentally wrote History Boys fic? (Lolwhat.)

Title: Proteus
Fandom: The History Boys
Pairing: Irwin/Dakin
Summary: "Uncomplicated, is that what you mean? Outgoing? Straight?"
A/N: Such huge, MASSIVE thanks go to [info]moogle62 for help and encouragement and generally being MADE of awesome. ♥ Short-ish, but this is my first go at writing these characters so feedback would really be appreciated.

above these clouds, these rains, these sleets of lead  
I was planning to write a series of five Life on Mars fics this summer. It was going to be called Five Lives That Weren't, and work like this: if we're to accept that Sam was in a coma, why the seventies? Surely he could have woken up anywhere at all? I would have written five Sam Tylers in five alternate universes, but unfortunately, it didn't work out; with one thing and another I just never got around to writing them, and I finally gave up today and admitted to myself that I'm never going to finish the series. I did, however, finish one of the fics, which should hopefully work perfectly well as a stand-alone. So, here I am!

Title: The Thoughts That Hung the Stars, pt. 1

Rating: 12-ish, I'd say.
Pairing: Sam/Gene
Summary: What if Sam hadn’t woken up in 1973? What if he’d woken up in another year like, oh, I don’t know... 1918? Yes, you heard me: Life on Mars during World War One. God help us all.

A/N: Massive thanks go to [info]strangeumbrella for her beta, not to mention all her help and encouragement, and also to my heterosexual life partner, [info]maestro1123. I apologise in advance for all that occurs; all mistakes are mine (but, hey, it's all in his head, I can do what I like! Suck it, history!).
