Housework Meme: Results (Pt1)
16 Jul 2012 06:18 pmThe first four bits of resulting nonsense from the meme. As predicted, there was very little shippiness. I mean, have you got time for that sort of thing when you're doing the housework? ;-)
1. Doctor Who - Five/Tegan: mowing the lawn From
eve11 (170 words)
( Lawn-mowing ficlet )
4. B7 - Avon/Servalan: changing the light-bulb From
lolmac (112 words)
( How many enemies does it take to change a light-bulb? )
13. The West Wing - Sam Seaborn/Ainsley Hayes: washing the car - From
astrogirl2 (213 words)
( In which there may possibly be doughnuts )
Sapphire & Steel - Silver/Steel: alphabetising their CD collection From
pitry (515 words).
Just imagining Steel and Silver having a shared CD collection to sort amused me muchly, because they really, really wouldn’t. And if they did, Steel’s would be tiny to non-existent, consisting of select instrumental pieces that he felt were not a potential threat to reality (taking a moment of time, physically recording it, and playing it over and over? That’s just asking for the end of the world, people). Silver would have by far the larger part of the collection, and it would be almost entirely made up of music he bought to annoy Steel (and a few things he thought were pretty). And in any case, he’d probably get bored with them and turn all the discs into something else.
So I wrote this:
( Alphabetical order is vitally important )
(I've only used 9 out of 20 pairings, if anyone wants to assign any more tasks to the remaining people - the original post is here.)
