Beyond the Roundels

1. The classic Who reactor I'm following at the moment managed to reach Earthshock somehow totally unspoiled, which produced a great reaction, both last week in Pts 1&2 at the Cyberman reveal (she loves Cybermen), and then at the final two parts here, pretty much as JNT intended, I'd say. /slightly sadistic, I suppose, sorry, but as someone who read so many of them in Target novelisation form first and got spoiled further by years of DWM first, it's completely fascinating to me.

(I do like this reactor - if you're looking for someone currently going through Classic Who, I'd recommend them - they're thoughtful, enjoying the ride and certain SFX and costumes & guest stars, adored the original Team TARDIS (important), but also willing to be critical sometimes too.)


2. Rarest of Rare Pairs Ficathon, which is actually a commentfest (for all types of fanworks) for rare pairs, so that's fun.


3. small_fandoms has a fest going on for posting works in small fandoms there in August, based on a set of Rolling Stones lyrics prompts, which you can check out here.


Otherwise: ♥ all. (it was summer for at least a whole day here, and I'm still not any better at that yet.)

I have been beginning to feel a bit better, or at least the virus, after hanging around for just short of three weeks, suddenly departed halfway through Wednesday, leaving me still an ME weakling, but at least a good deal more human than I'd felt in a while.

Anyway, I thought I'd try to drabble for small_fandoms current Drabblethon, and ended up with a drabble for that and a ficlet for 100fandoms and allbingo because the first of my two drabble-ideas ended up being impossible to squish into drabble format.

These are both for Louise Cooper's Time Master Series, particularly the Chaos Gate Trilogy, for two characters I never expected to write anything about, but they promised good drabble-material and the fandom was unquestionably rare enough!

Summary: Order is not Chaos. It is perfect, unchanging. But it is methodical and may try all things in their turn with time enough, and reason.


While I was ill, I did manage to do some fic-reading and I have another (particularly ill-advised but I feel much needed) rec list pretty much done as well - and I do hope I can catch up more generally soon. I won't count on anything, though, as I'm still pretty low in all other terms.
