    Time Event
    3:42p
    I've been posting Slings & Arrows stories (and one DCU/dS crossover)
    They're over on my livejournal, and I keep forgetting to announce them here because it doesn't seem as though anyone's reading them over here. But, for the sake of completeness, this is what I've been up to lately.

    Title: Travelled on his looks
    Fandom: due South/DCU
    Summary: For reasons that do not need exploring at this juncture, Benton Fraser is on a rooftop in Blüdhaven, New Jersey, a city which Ray describes as having "all the charm of a pig farm in July without the damn bacon."
    Characters: Fraser, Ray K., Dick Grayson, Tim Drake
    Rating: All ages (some cursing)
    Notes: For Jack, because there are only so many characters who crossdress for justice, and they ought to have a chance to commiserate now and then -- although this is not one of those chances either. Thanks to [info]sageness for beta reading.

    Title: Un-, sub-, or supernatural forces
    Fandom: Slings & Arrows (no spoilers)
    Summary: Geoffrey Tennant and Darren Nichols are Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, or vice versa.
    Rating: All ages
    Note: [info]likethesun2 said, "One of my favorite things about this fandom is it gives you such free rein for theatrical self-indulgence. Have an obsession with a play? Cast Geoffrey Tennant as one of the characters!" She was not wrong.

    Title: All thee Dysk's a Stage
    Fandom: Slings & Arrows / Discworld (Wyrd Sisters; any Unseen University novel)
    Summary: The Librarian is part of Darren Nichols' Art.
    Rating: All ages
    Note: I started it by mentioning the other Canadiana/Discworld story I'm writing (currently in progress) to Jamjar. She got me off on a tangent by mentioning Geoffrey et al. at the Dysk. Instead of writing Geoffrey and Tomjon's passionate relationship, I wrote this.

    Title: Pawn their experience (12,000 words)
    Fandom: Slings & Arrows (begins 15 years before the show, no spoilers)
    Summary: Due to a childhood spent in eight different cities and a career in which being on tour equated naturally with getting paid, Geoffrey's proprietary interest in his living space was approximately equal to the average fruit fly's sense of maternal pride.
    Rating: Adult
    Pairing: Predominantly Geoffrey/Oliver, Geoffrey/OFC, Geoffrey/Ellen
    Notes: Thanks to Carla, Jack, and Adri for hand-holding, and to Epigone, Jam, and Sage for beta-reading.

    Title: Sore labour's bath
    Fandom: Slings & Arrows (mid-season 2)
    Summary: Anna is getting better at subtle hints.
    Rating: All ages
    Notes: For [info]sisterofdream, who types faster than me and is fond of Anna.

    Title: A foolish wit (3900 words)
    Fandom: Slings & Arrows (spoilers for s3)
    Summary: Sloan doesn't know a lot about the theatre, but he sure as hell knows more about real life than the dead guy who's been talking to him lately.
    Rating: Sloan enjoys using the F-word.
    Notes: Adri suggested this collaboration. She and Carla cheered me on while I wrote. Mme. Bahorel beta read it. All remaining errors and misapprehensions are mine.
    Disclaimer: None of these characters are mine and I make no profit from this story.

    Current Mood: adrift
    Current Music: Buck up, you melancholy Dane
