An actual up to date little post of nice things

[thisbluespirit]

I thought it might make a change to write something here and post it straight away, instead of in two weeks or three or four months, idk, shocking but still. (I continue as before, getting a little more useful with every few days.) In the meantime, here are some fannish things that made me happy in this last week:

1. Another Enigma fic! \o/ 0_o

Rating: Teen And Up Audiences

2. Sesskasays, whose Classic Who reactions I have enjoyed so much... is going to be doing Blake's 7! I did not dare really hope, but yay. I cannot wait for her to meet Servalan.


3. Small Prophets, on the iPlayer, a 6-part comedy from Mackenzie Crook, who did The Detectorists. It has all the mix of slow build, appreciation of small things & being v down to earth of the former, with actual supernatural ingredient in shape of six humunculi that Michael Sleep (Pearce Quigley) grows in his garden shed, for reasons. I haven't watched most of ep6 yet, but cannot imagine it producing any reason in the last 27 minutes for me not to rec it warmly here.


4. Another magnitude of miraculous on from Enigma-fic - a Rufus/Adam vidlet for A Fatal Inversion (Jeremy Northam & Douglas Hodge in 1991/2) from someone on YT:

Watch on YouTube

Like. This is why I wrote Rufus/Adam fic that nobody wanted! And this doesn't even have the shots with the dinner party and the make up, but, lol, I feel like it is a much more compelling argument for watching it than me saying it's very good. XD


Anyway, creative people continue to be a Good Thing is all. <3

I have been hearing nothing but good things about this show since before it came out and it is currently zero percent accessible to me, but I am still glad it's that good and accessible to people who aren't me!

I am glad the universe is catering to your fannish interests.

It does seem usual for there to be at least a 2 or 3 months between UK broadcast and it getting to other places, so hopefully in time it will turn up somewhere - maybe even when you have bandwidth for watching it. <3

Thank you. I am still feeling desperately blurred and brainless. I dreamed a British noir that doesn't exist and when I woke was depressed that even if it had, I probably wouldn't be watching it.

*hugs*

I can't ever work out if it's worse when I dream I'm doing something I couldn't possibly and then I have to wake up, or the fact that most times even in my dreams, I am too ill to do the thing. But I hope you get to watch all the noir again soon. Real, existing noir, even! <3<3<3

Yay for more small fandom things, and I’m glad you’re slowly recovering! <33 There’s nothing like the joy of a new fic or vid for an obscure fandom.

I continue to be creative-blocked, but I’m thinking of making some nominations for Unsent Letters (opening shortly) and seeing if that can spark some writing energy…so perhaps more small fandom things will emerge from that. xD

Aw, sorry about you feeling creative-blocked! I hope Unsent Letters does the trick. I shall keep my eyes open! <3
