Advent #2: The Policewoman

Prompt: Cutting through the Nevernever is not always a good idea, as Harry finds when he meets Clara Godwin. Prompt from Puck last year that I never got around to.
Title: The Policewoman
Fandom: The Dresden Files/Tortall
Spoilers: None.
Characters: Harry, Clary Godwin.
Rating: G

She looked exactly like Murphy. Well, as much as a tall, stonefaced brunette can look exactly like a tiny cute blonde, but you know what I mean.

Besides, it was the expression that really did it. The “I know you’ve done something and I’ll make you suffer if you don’t tell me of your own free will” expression. That, and the cop stance, the wide-legged, “do you feel lucky punk” stance. You know what I’m talking about.

The crossbow pointed at my nose was, admittedly, new.

But she really looked exactly like Murphy.

Which meant that I was so screwed.

Advent #1: The Doctor's Angels

Title: The Doctor's Angels
Fandom: Doctor Who
Spoilers: None to speak of.
Characters: The Brig, Sergeant Benton, and by mention the Doctor, Liz, Jo and Sarah Jane.
Rating: G

"The Doctor's angels," the Brigadier remarked, watching through the window as the Doctor tried to hug all three of them simultaneously, with a remarkable amount of success.

Benton, beside him, blinked, and stared, and tried not to comment.

After a moment of this, the Brigadier asked in an irritated tone, "What? You haven't seen Charlie's Angels?"

"I've seen Charlie's Angels," Benton replied, and searched for a diplomatic way of putting it. Finding none, he continued, "I'm just trying to wrap my head around the notion of you having seen Charlie's Angels. Sir."

The Brigadier harrumphed, and proceeded to ignore him.

Advent Drabbles!

I totally forgot about these, so let me begin them now.

Adventfics are precisely what they sound like, a sort of advent calendar of drabbles. Every day in December up to Christmas Day, I will write and post a drabble on my journal.
Where you come in is this. I can't write these drabbles all by me onesies, savvy? I need prompts! Drop me a prompt on the drabblepost of the day, and if one strikes my fancy I'll write it. I can't promise that it will be yours, but one will be written. Here's the thing, though. If there's a particular prompt you have your heart set on seeing, keep posting it. Don't assume that because it's on one post, I'll see it and write it. The more you suggest one, the more likely it is that I'll write it.
So drop me suggestions for the next drabble in the comment boxes!

List of fandoms behind the cut! )

Fic: A Brother Is Born for Adversity

Title: A Brother Is Born For Adversity
Summary: Being a Brief Correspondence between Lady Cordelia Vorkosigan and her Brother, Benedict Naismith, following Shards of Honor.
Author: TigerKat24
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: The Vorkosigan saga and all its characters belong to Lois McMaster Bujold. I am but a humble student playing in her sandbox. I lay no claim to anything here except, perhaps, Ben's general character.
Notes: It's always scary writing in a new fandom, isn't it? On top of that, this is unbeta'd since my regular betas either haven't been introduced to the Vorkosigan saga (not for lack of my trying) or haven't read Shards of Honor. Please be gentle with me.
Cordelia's brother is mentioned a couple times during the series, but never by name, and we never meet him. So I decided to give him a day in the sun. This was the result. Pretty much all details about him have been made up by me.

Cordy, what the hell were you thinking? )

Fic: Survival

Title: Survival
Author: TigerKat24
Rating: NC-17. This fic contains explicit rape and cursing. DO NOT READ if this bothers you.
Book or TV verse: Bookverse.
Summary: The things we do to survive. Maggie Lefay and Lord Raith. A prequel of sorts to Kyrie Eleison.
Disclaimer: The world of the Dresden Files and its attendant characters belong entirely to Jim Butcher. I do this out of love and not for any money. No copyright infringement is intended.
Notes: For Chox, on her birthday. Um. Please don't hate me?

Writing Meme!

To pass the time for you while I reread His Majesty's Dragon and sequels and finish Victory of Eagles.

Post the first lines from your last twenty-five fics and see if there's a pattern (or something like that).

Here we go, in reverse order. )

Hmm. General patterns seem to be me playing with language more and more. I start out messing around with Space Between the Seconds and by the Dalek Invasion of Discworld I've nearly gone overboard. Thank you, darling beta! A few of these, namely all the Dresden Files fic and The Dalek Invasion of Discworld are me consciously trying to mimic the author in question. Interestingly, I've only started out with dialogue in three fics; I was under the impression that I did it a lot more. I also seem to start out right in the middle of the story and explain things later. Very Doctorlike of me, I think. So! What do you think?

FIC: Ten Times Trouble (2/2)

Title: Ten Times Trouble (2/2)
Author: tigerkat24
Pairings: Ian/Barbara is the only explicit one.
Characters: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Ian, Barbara, Jamie, Victoria, Sarah Jane Smith, Romana II, Evelyn Smythe, Ace McShane, Fitz Kriener, Jack Harkness, Donna, numerous OCs, and Ben and Polly mentioned. Yeah.
Rating: PG-13 for Captain Jack (and to some extent Fitz).
Spoilers: Nothing specific, a lot of general ones, but most of them are episodes that were shown for the first time a minimum of nineteen years ago. If there’s a spoiler statute of limitations, I think we’re past it.
Prompt: All ten Doctors show up at Ian and Barbara's wedding, and all of them have very bad timing.
Author's Notes: Wow, this turned into a friggin’ monster. I hope you like it. Two’s line about lacy cravats originated in the finaleclipse community with suitboyskin, so all credit goes to him for graciously allowing me to use it. Also fits in timeline-wise with my story Listening, but reading that is not remotely required.
Bonus: Tell me where the OC names came from and I'll give you a cookie.

Thank God that's over. )
