Oh dear - I have a whole pile of WiPs, and little time to work on any of them. The Purimgifts one has to be done, so it is being prioritised. (It's about 2/3 done). But of course once I decide to work on one fic I get ideas for the others. *headdesk*

ETA: Well, shit. My computer crashed and lost a whole half of what I'd written. Dammit.

In actually finished fic news, I have written a couple of things for the Three Sentence Ficathon. Fill prompts, leave prompts! Teeny tiny fics!

Via cangetmad: Someone is Putting Cowboy Hats on Pigeons in Las Vegas No one knows why. A rodeo was in town but denied any connection. The Las Vegas police said it “does not appear to be a police matter at this time.”

Pain Relief Ligur has a toothache.

Tokens of Affection Hastur finds Ligur can be sentimental.

Building the House Aziraphale worries about the building work at the Temple during Solomon's reign.

Kuntillet 'Ajrud Aziraphale inadvertently causes a place in the middle of nowhere to be of archaeological interest.

If you'd like a little more information about what I like in the fandoms I asked for, here's what I enjoy about them:

( Fix Bay'netsCollapse )


( Hut 33Collapse )

It's that time of year again! Time to work on the Yuletide letter. *stares at blank page*

In lieu of that, the most recent fics I have posted at Ao3 are:

Production Values - Weiss Kreuz, drabble sequence. Schwarz get themselves into ridiculous monstery trouble.

The Folk of the Sea - Good Omens, drabble. Aziraphale, Crowley and a seal.

Announcement - Good Omens (TV) - The archangels Michael, Uriel and Gabriel bicker over discuss their work.

Luckily I remembered about Yuletide nominations before they closed (four hours before they closed *facepalm*)! So I have nominated:
Fix Bay'nets (Characters: Bill Gedge, Bracy, Roberts),
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Characters: Arthur Dent, Ford Prefect, Zaphod Beeblebrox),
RH Plus (Characters: Michitaka, Kiyoi, Seto Ageha, Nogami Makoto).

Some recent Good Omens fics I posted at the Ao3:

Two bookverse ones -

Parliament - A ficlet in which Hastur and Ligur attend Hell's Parliament.

A Strong Archer - Crowley finds himself under an embarrassing spell.

And one TV!verse one -

Dagon's Mid-Week City Break - Dagon just isn't appreciated. Now Crowley has to deal with that fact.

Indulging in some nostalgia before work, I am listening to The Ambassadors of Sorrow (and their bandcamp site ), and "The Birds of the Air" really is King David looking back on his youthful love affair with Jonathan.




Anyway, they're great! Well worth a listen.

Ooh!

My Weiss Kreuz AU The Road towards Kamakura was remixed by Quillori to The Road Towards Kamakura (the fishing boat adrift remix). An older Mamoru looks back at the course of his life and what it has done to him and to others.

and my Fix Bay'nets! drabble series Want was remixed by Lady_Ganesh to Truth Hits Everybody (the Time and Place remix) Many years later, Roberts meets Bracy and Gedge again.

Thank you both, they are really fantastic remixes!

I wrote a Weiss Kreuz/RH Plus fic, Things Can Only Get Better (The Flying Fur remix), a remix of lady_ganesh's Things Can Only Get Better. Mamoru has to accept that there are weirder things than psychic assassins in his life.

The most recent Good Omens fics I've posted at the Ao3:

Two set in Iron Age Israel:

In Presence of My Foes - G

Crowley checks out a young singer from Bethlehem, and is glad to see he's no threat to his plans.

Depart From Me - G

Aziraphale and Crowley listen to music during an evening in King Saul's house in Gibeah, and find they're not the only creatures listening.

And one in a series focusing on Hastur and Ligur:

Five times Hastur and Ligur Weren't Betrayed, and One Time They Were - M

Hastur and Ligur succeed due to the hard work of others. Until someone tells a secret.

Wow two of my fics were remixed in this year's Remix Revival! The second is a remix of a drabble series, Want (Fix Bay'nets!)
It's a really good look at Roberts and his inner self.
