I went out (briefly, with my friend, to town), on Weds, am still not recovered (bah), but feeling a bit better today, I think. Anyway, two nice fannish things:

1. B7 is going to be released on blu-ray! S1 coming out soon! (They'll finally include the Making Of documentaries that got left off the DVDs.)



2. I idly looked at Sister Boniface Mysteries on AO3 as I do sometimes, and this time there was a delightful fic. Well. delightful for me, less so for Sam, but it's traditional to suffer for fic:

Summary:

“There’s been a slight accident,” Sister Boniface says.

“I suspected as much,” Reverend Mother Adrian says. “Since Inspector Gillespie is bleeding all over the floor.”

These things will happen to try the Reverend Mother, especially if Sister Boniface is around. Top notch voices. I'm only surprised this has never happened in an ep. XD

So, I was wishing I was well enough to write fic no one would ever read for Craddock and Co because I'm still thinking about it. Well, actually, I was wishing someone else would at least have drawn art on tumblr or something, but also fic.

Anyway, I resorted to trying to draw the scene where Lucy and Uncle Charles are starting their lives of crime-fighting together myself. Apologies for the bad drawing, but in my defence a) i do not practice the art sufficiently to do it well and b) please admire my choice of suit for Lucy because I feel it is Canon now:

( But it's Indian silk! )

And talking of comforting fictional period detectives, I was shocked and delighted to find on my reading list today that someone had written Sam & Sister Boniface fic. Can Sister Boniface possibly have been EATEN BY A BEAR? Sam is DISTRAUGHT. Felix is trying to patiently point out that there are no bears around in the UK any more. (spoiler: Sister Boniface has not been eaten by a bear.) <3

(I'm also sorry because I seem to be over-achieving on the "post the stupid thing anyway" resolution, but I'll be ill again in half a week cos I have to go out and things and I'm still barely able to anyway. although that might just lead to worse burbling.)
