I just found this on my hard-drive - I did it a few weeks ago as a writing exercise and forgot about it. (And I'm definitely stretching the definition of a sentence to breaking point in some cases. Heh.) I can't remember where I found the meme - somewhere about.

One sentence Press Gang fics )

(It's hard. I think I prefer word limits!)
thisbluespirit: (pg lynda editor)
44 x Sapphire & Steel icons and 53 x Press Gang icons. The S&S icons seem to have been growing slowly on my PC since this time last year, so are a bit of an odd mix. The Press Gang icons were made in the summer, I think and about 20 or so were posted to [livejournal.com profile] fan_flashworks for challenges.

Teaser:

Contents: Please note the Press Gang set includes an icon of a clown holding a gun. (There are 12 from S3 "The Last Word").

I'm not responsible for everything, I just make it look that way )


The usual rules apply: want, take, credit, no hotlinking. For texture credits etc., see my profile.

thisbluespirit: (pg - Julie Lynda shock)
Okay, I'm a little startled to be making one of these posts today, because I finally (a week or so back) got round to typing up one that had been in my notebook since April:

Prompt 35: Lucky Break
Kenny’s been reunited with the girl who may be the (accidental) love of his life. Too bad he’s only got one hour to make an impression – and the rest of the news team seem determined to get in the way…
Lucky Break
(999 words. All ages. Kenny Phillips, Frazz Davis, Tiddler, Sarah Jackson, Colin Mathews, Kelly. Kenny/Kelly).

...And then decided that barring the two I've been saving on my hardrive to finish with, I would give up the claim, because I'd done all I wanted to with it, and I keep going way over the limit and having to cut back when I do write them. So I can only blame putting together the previous post, and watching an episode for the following. Either that, or I went crazy, of course. Many apologies for committing Kenny/Lynda and any implied cruelty to animals. Again, see the previous post...)

Prompt 37: Feeling Good
Kenny’s only ever cruel when he’s in a really good mood…
That Time of the Week
(453 words, All ages. S3. No spoilers. Kenny Phillips, Lynda Day.)

Prompt 39: Chaos Theory
Kenny ends up on the first year school trip with Colin, and the body count keeps rising…
Cruelty to Dumb Beasts
(963 words, All ages. Pre-series. Kenny Phillips, Colin Mathews, Lynda Day.)

Prompt 17 : Love/Hate
Lynda’s always screwed up the emotional stuff, but maybe there’s a reason for that – one that has nothing whatsoever to do with Spike Thomson…
Inevitable
(993 words. All ages. S5 / Post series AU. Kenny/Lynda. Julie Craig, Kenny Phillips, Lynda Day).
thisbluespirit: (pg - spike & Lynda)
For various reasons (including explaining the unexpected ficlets I wrote for [livejournal.com profile] 50ficlets this week), I feel it's time for the Press Gang edition of these posts. There won't be much I haven't mentioned previously, because it's a rare fandom, but I've not put it all together before.

Also because this returned to YouTube, and it's one of my favourite scenes from anything, and can be watched and enjoyed even if you don't know what I'm on about with this show, or don't want to. Basically, Colin (Paul Reynolds) asks Julie (Lucy Benjamin) out on a date, but ruins everything in a record one minute. (Any spoilers are in that line I've just typed. And, yeah, no Kenny, Lynda, or Spike!)

"Act normal, say nothing dumb, don't scare her..."


(Plus a further 30 seconds of random Colin if wanted).

Press Gang fanvids and fic and more under here )

Well, this post certainly got epic - but I did fish out one or two new things, at least.
thisbluespirit: (pg - Lynda Smiling)
This is for [livejournal.com profile] belantana, in honour of her enduring love of anything involving zombies or the end of the world.

Story: The End of the World As We Know It (Looks Pretty Much the Same to Me)
Author: [livejournal.com profile] lost_spook
Rating: All ages
Word Count: 3205
Characters/Pairings: Lynda Day, Spike Thomson, Sarah Jackson, Julie Craig, Colin Mathews, Tiddler, Frazz Davis, Kenny Phillips
Warnings: None. No spoilers (S5 AU)

Summary: “Lynda, I know the Gazette’s important to you, but you think this is the way to fight off the impending apocalypse?” added Spike. “Edit a newspaper?”

Special Zombie fighting edition here )

In case anybody's feeling bored, or down.

Actually, this is the fault of [livejournal.com profile] dbskyler who had me checking out 'vvj5' and 'lost_spook' searches on del.ici.ous, and it turns out that my only non-fic bookmarks on there are fanvid recs, so have some more...

Let's have some Very Dramatic Trailers )
thisbluespirit: (Kenny/Wrong Number)
Two more:

Prompt 19: Lost & Found
Stars collide and Kenny runs into his Wrong Number, but as usual the universe hasn’t finished with him yet.
Love, Fate and Destiny
(864 words, All ages, Kenny Philips, Kelly/Dublin Girl. Kenny/Kelly. Set between S3 & 4.)

Prompt: 15 Good or Bad
Sometimes life is a mixed up fairy tale with no guaranteed happy endings, Prince Charming doesn't want to know about the damsel in distress, Red Riding Hood is out to get the wolf; the wicked queen's not so evil and Jiminy Cricket has his dark side.
Not A Fairy Tale
(999 words, All ages, S3, No spoilers. Kenny Phillips, Lynda Day, Tiddler, Spike Thomson, Sarah Jackson, Colin Mathews, Frazz Davis. This is the one I was complaining about…)
thisbluespirit: (Kenny writing)
Whoops, the ficlets are getting longer. Better watch out, before they turn into fic!


Prompt 28: Flash back
When Kenny met Lynda.
Red Letter Day
(830 words, All ages, Mrs Day, Mrs Phillips, Kenny Phillips, Lynda Day.)

Prompt 14: Heaven & Hell
Kenny finds himself in Colin’s world and before he knows it, he’s been seduced, set-up, packaged and sold.
Kenny Phillips Rock Star
(973 words, All ages, Kenny Phillips, Colin Mathews, Lynda Day. Spoilers for S2 ep Rock Solid.)

Prompt 46: Coming Out
Sam wants Kenny centre stage, but Colin, (and Lynda, Spike and life in general) have got him cowering under his desk.
I Need A Hero
(906 words, All ages, Kenny Phillips, Sam Black, Lynda Day. Follows on from the previous ficlet, so again, spoilers for Rock Solid. Sam/Kenny)

Prompt 04: Missing You
Shouldn’t I Be Kenny?
(470 words, All ages, Julie Craig, Kenny Phillips, Lynda Day. Spoilers for S4 & 5 generally.)
