Fic: In the Moment
Jul. 24th, 2009 09:10 pmFic: In the Moment
Well, I won't lie to you, folks; I was in the mood for a bit of shameless Four/Romana love - here's hoping you are too! This sort of straddles the gap between Season 17, which to my mind was all about having fun and holidaying around the cosmos, and Season 18, which is all about getting old and waiting for the other shoe to drop. And some random Doctor origin-story stuff for the hell of it. Obviously, I do not own Doctor Who or any of the characters or concepts connected to it; that is very much the BBC's prerogative.

Fic: Doctor Who and the Temple of Chrysogonax, or; The Quatermain Xpedition
Act Three
It's been a while, I know! This one seems to take ages to write, though; I'm not very good at coming up at jokes in a hurry, and then there are those musical numbers (I didn't even manage to do a full one for this part, just a couple of verses)... At this rate, it should be finished by about 2012. Not much plot here as opposed to Four and Romana being silly, but I felt like some silliness after that angsty Seven fic I just finished, and isn't that part of the charm of Season 17? I worry that I make the Sontarans look like dopes here; they have enough credibility problems as it is! Anyway, hope you enjoy; next on my to-do list is some more of Battlelines; I want to put that one to bed in the not too distant future too (you know, before I retire!).

Without going overboard, I can't say what a relief it is to actually write a proper bit of fic after my barren couple of weeks; I sat down with a couple of beers and my iPod and it just came pouring out. Thank the Lordy... Now, as to how good it actually is, I leave that up to you.
Thanks also tolost_spook and
akashasheiress for their vital input on a crucially important point; you know the bit I'm talking about. :)

Random Warriors' Gate Love
Mar. 7th, 2009 04:36 pmDrabblefic: Nemesis
Warriors’ Gate is, for a variety of reasons, one of my very favourite Who stories; reason enough by itself not to write off Season 18 as the beginning of the end (and there are other reasons, to be sure). So, a drabble inspired by that great story, and by my good buddy Clocketpatch’s fictional meditations upon it. Obviously Doctor Who and its associated copyrights are the property of the BBC and of their individual creators.

Fic: Dancing
Well, I blame community.livejournal.com/calufrax/ for stoking up my innate Four/Romana shippiness with their reckless and inflammatory recommendations of various fine examples of said ship during the course of the past week. I also have had this idea about Four/Romana "dancing" together (either literally or in the Stephen Moffat sense) for some time now, from where I came by it I could not say. So, even though I have WIPs in progress, I wrote this instead. It maybe gets a bit racy, but rest assured I bottled out when it came to portraying, er...actual physical relations. Feedback etc. always welcome. As always, while it would certainly be nice and possibly financially rewarding were I to own Doctor Who and its associated properties, alas I do not; they very definitely belong to the BBC:

Carry On Up The Jungle, Doctor!
Feb. 23rd, 2009 07:51 pmFic: Doctor Who and the Temple of Chrysogonax, or; The Quatermain Xpedition
So, there I was trying to fight off a ravening horde of Liz Shaw and the Cybermen-related plot bunnies, and I decided to be conscientious about one of my WIPs. I posted the first chapter of this on the Teaspoon back in, like, October or something, and have had the second one lying around half-finished ever since. So, I finished it (the chapter, not the story!), and here it is:
www.whofic.com/viewstory.php
If the third chapter takes the same length of time to complete, it should be up in about June!
I'll admit it's all a little bit Season 17 silly, with Four and Romana II reminiscing about a recent adventure on some back-of-beyond planet, featuring a group of none-too-bright jungle explorers, hostile alien natives and a bunch of annoyed Sontarans-on-a-mission, while at the same time watching a theatrical version of said adventure as dramatised by none other than Messrs Litefoot and Jago, the toasts of London's theatreland cira 1899. So, you can't say I didn't warn you up front...
