Randomising...

[thisbluespirit]

For reasons, I am still not possessed of much brain again today (though more than most of last week) and I may just have been amusing myself with the Unconventional Courtship Generator again. You know what this means. Yes, I had to share. Again.


138) In the Flesh- Portia Da Costa
Victorian society already believes he’s a scarlet man. Why not become one? the Tenth Doctor’s reputation is in tatters. With scandalous photographs of him being scrutinized by the ton and his brother running them into debt, Ten’s only hope – a respectable marriage – is dashed. Then powerful, wealthy Sodoff Baldrick offers an indecent proposal: for one month of hedonistic servitude he’ll pay off his brother’s debts. But nothing can prepareTen for the worst, for discovering that he enjoys his degradation and delights in the dark fantasies that Baldrick has awakened. In fact, he’s fast becoming addicted to a life, and a man, who can never wholly be hers…

Struggling to keep her desire at bay, Liz threw herself into discovering the truth behind her mystery man.

Getting the adventurer to meet deadlines is hard enough, but turning down the flame on their uncontrollable chemistry soon proves impossible!
Holly has traveled the world but has never encountered a delicacy as delicious as Sec. Sure, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, but will Holly stay for Sec… especially when the chips are down and he suddenly stands to lose it all?

(That's Red Dwarf Holly, so... goodness only knows what happens with that one, but it probably involves curry at some point.)

Comments

[astrogirl2.livejournal.com]

These, as always, are hilarious. Oddly enough, I think Dave Lister/Mel Bush may be the most terrifying of the bunch, just because I can actually just about imagine it, and it would go so horribly badly.

Also, Delenn would, indeed, smack the crap out of Rumplestiltskin, and should really not turn her back on him afterward. Although the confrontation would be extremely interesting to watch.

[thisbluespirit]

I think they were probably set up by Rimmer, or if not, he'd really enjoy her efforts to reform Lister to a healthy lifestyle.

I know! And Rumplestiltksin waiting years for revenge, what are the odds of that? :loL:

Also (because obviously I can't come back here to reply to comments without clicking on the link again), I want this:

A sweeping tale of discovery, danger and passion From rugged Cornwall to the palaces of Venice and Rome


("Donna, put that pirate down - you don't know where he's been!")

[astrogirl2.livejournal.com]

Both LOL and wow to that one! And he thought Emma was a handful... :)

[persiflage-1.livejournal.com]

22, 8 and 49 had me laughing so hard I had a coughing fit!! I am SO glad I wasn't actually drinking at that point or I'd have spat the tea everywhere!

[thisbluespirit]

Yes, drinking and eating are not advised when playing with that randomiser! :-D

[persiflage-1.livejournal.com]

I'll say!!

[taiyou_to_tsuki.livejournal.com]

11 is clearly the prequel (or possibly the sequel?) to That Photoshoot. You know the one. Amazing.

[thisbluespirit]

Oh, yes. Jo Grant just can't leave the Daleks alone, can she? :-)

[lolmac]

BWAHAHA

Because Steel wanted a baby. Silver’s baby.

"This one will do."

"Under no circumstances, Steel! Put that baby back. You can't use it as bait."

"Why not?"

"It's not mine. I simply promised its mum I'd look after it for a minute."


Servalan doesn’t expect to find it so difficult to walk away…

"Ow!"

"I tried to warn you, Supreme Commander. Didn't you realise those shoes were a dreadful idea? Especially when visiting other planets?"


Londo Mollari has been a paparazzi target for years, with his rugged Roman looks, glamorous lifestyle and, most recently, a family tragedy.

Not to mention that amazing hair!


powerful, wealthy Sodoff Baldrick offers an indecent proposal

Well, that's certainly true to character!!

[shannonsequitur.livejournal.com]

I think that any proposal offered by Baldrick is, by its very nature, an indecent one.

[lolmac]

As Avon would say, "Demonstrably."

[thisbluespirit]

LOL!

And I was thinking the Silver/Steel one sounding more like accidental horror, given S&S: I mean, how, why... and what does he want it for?

[swordznsorcery.livejournal.com]

Dalek Sec and Holly. Yes. I don't know how, I don't know why, but yes. Also, Sheriff Dayna! And I'd love to see her tackle Six.

Bit amused by Ten's random sex change halfway through the first synopsis. That'll please the people wanting a female Doctor! And Jack's story couldn't be more suited to him if it tried. I think Nyssa's head needs examining though. Baldrick?! Brave?! And then sexy Dalek Sec loomed on the horizon, and everything else ceased to exist. :D

[john_amend_all]

<hastily re-uploads> If you happen to come upon that prompt with a male character again, that won't happen, and I shall deny that it was ever any different :-)

Also,

85) THE BUSINESS OF STRANGERS by KYLIE BRANT
A woman without a past…She didn’t know her name, she didn’t know her nationality. The newly manufactured ‘Irene Adler’ only knew that her martial-arts skills and weaponry and assassination techniques went far beyond the average person’s…
A mark that became a death warrant…
The men who’d tried to assassinate her all shared one common trait: a tattoo of winged horse, exactly like the one on her ankle. Where had it come from – and what did it mean to her survival?
A man who was more than just a stranger… It was dangerous for Irene to share too much with anyone – much less the criminal hired to kill her – but she couldn’t resist Vicki Pallister’s arms, her bed. With her shadowy past hot on her heels, would Irene’s business with Vicki be passionate…or deadly?

[swordznsorcery.livejournal.com]

Spoilsport. ;) But congrats on a good bit of coding. You've done several of these generators, haven't you?

[john_amend_all]

I've got eight linked from my resources page, and I've written a couple more variations as one-off jokes. I'm not sure if they've inspired anyone other than me to actual fic, but I live in hope :-)

[thisbluespirit]

You've not got the cake fic one in there - a bit of an oversight, surely? *munches virtual cake*

ETA: What I was meaning to say before I pressed post too soon was that I definitely wrote fic for the cake fic generator, and was going to say so, but then it wasn't on your list. I semi- did fic for the unconventional courtship one for your birthday, too.

[john_amend_all]

Definite oversight; it must have got lost when I added the two 12-characters generators. I've fixed it now.

And how could I forget Eleven in his ballgown, particularly when you'd been recalling his exploits as a ballet dancer elsewhere in the thread?

[thisbluespirit]

Sheriff Dayna and Six (and the inevitable Bayban misunderstanding) would be priceless, I'm sure. :-)

I think the randomiser has got wise to Jack's nature!

[a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com]

OMG...this is frigging awesome and stupifying and -

I'm hoping you will do this again, because EPIC!!

*HUGS*

[thisbluespirit]

:lol: Thanks! And I did nothing, other than get bored. Click the link and you'll get more! (But don't eat or drink while playing with it.)

That said, I think it is pretty much a dead cert that I will at some time get bored, play with random generators and share the results with everyone. :-)

(One of the first times I did this, btw, it gave me Eleven, a classically trained ballerina... :-D)

[a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com]

LOL!! I look forward to it...well, not your boredom, but - you know what I mean!

*Grins* There is a picture for that you know...*laughs harder*

[oonaseckar.livejournal.com]

Ten and Baldrick. My God. The mental images can never be erased, you sadist, you.

And, River Song with a runaway bride of her own... No wonder she kept yammering about spoilers, I don't think Eleven was quite sharp enough to have kept track of the convolutions of her love life. It's a soap opera. And I wish someone would write it.

[thisbluespirit]

I had to share! Sorry. ;-p

Hee!

[liadt]

Ha, ha #22 must be done! Baldrick's never had it so good. I'm worried about what Gene Hunt's come back single will sound like though and the video 0_o Jo needs to leave the Daleks alone;p

[thisbluespirit]

You simply cannot get Jo to stop pestering the Daleks! It's getting past a joke... ;-p

[jaxomsride.livejournal.com]

Are you sure this is random?

Especially the Jack Harkness as a billionaire and Sodoff Baldric's parenting methods being outdated

[thisbluespirit]

I'm pretty certain. Ish. (there is one random generator I swear is sentient and actually can tell the difference between fandoms in the prompts it gives, but this is not that one. This one has summaries where G'Kar marries Adric. Though, to be fair, it wasn't his idea... ;-p)

:-)

[flowsoffire.livejournal.com]

Love these! They're so weird and wonderfully entertaining and enthralling to read :D Vicki/River made me go ":O :D :O :D". So odd to imagine, but perfect! And Jack/Regina! And Jo/Dalek Sec! And Rose being ‘Cavewoman #1’ XDDD I LOVE IT.

[thisbluespirit]

They're so weird and wonderfully entertaining and enthralling to read

Absolutely! I can't help keep going back every so often and playing with the generator. :-D

[flowsoffire.livejournal.com]

Hehe :D All the fun things.
