thisbluespirit: (blake's 7)
[community profile] remixrevival has now revealed the authors for the main collection, so I can now own up that this was my effort, though I doubt it'll come as too much of shock to anyone who read it and knows me!

Autumn Mourning (The Falling Leaves and Elephants Remix) (4329 words) by lost_spook
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Blake's 7, Doctor Who (2005)
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: Major Character Death
Relationships: Orac & The Doctor's TARDIS, Kerr Avon/Orac, The Doctor/The Doctor's TARDIS
Characters: Orac (Blake's 7), The Doctor's TARDIS, Kerr Avon, Vila Restal, Dayna Mellanby, Soolin (Blake's 7), Del Tarrant
Additional Tags: Remix, Artificial Intelligence, Computers, Canonical Character Death, Post-Canon, Post-Gauda Prime, Jokes
Summary: Orac has data to share with the TARDIS. The TARDIS reads more than Orac knows or wishes – about its humans, its sad state, and its non-existent electric heart.

From Grieved It on its Way by [personal profile] still_lycoris. My remix is thoroughly spoilery for Blake's 7 in multiple ways (should anyone Doctor Who side be interested).

The first fic I read when looking for what to remix was this one, and it was so obviously the one I was going to have to remix, I was almost affronted. Anyway, the original is a lovely/sad post-canon crossover about Orac and the TARDIS, with Orac sending files to the TARDIS, so I could switch it to the TARDIS's end and explore the files she receives. Plus, there's an old joke about elephants and trees.


With thanks to [personal profile] aralias who beta-ed the original, and who asked the important question: where was Gan? (Whoops. Sorry, Gan!)

1. I defaulted on Not For Prime Time. I know by now I shouldn't sign up for exchanges, excepting only Yuletide (because once a year come hell or high water to see how it goes is a good thing) and possbly Remix (because it works differently). But of course I love exchanges and it's hard to remember that they don't mix well with being ill even in the best circumstances. So I'm kicking myself for giving in and signing up, and also for defaulting on a really lovely assignment that I had a perfectly workable idea for, but I'm immediately a good deal less stressed. Bingos are fine, Runaway Tales, prompts, commentfests, but not exchanges and only some ficathons. I know this by now. *kicks self again*

(When I'm well enough, one day, sometime, never, I shall sign up for ALL THE EXCHANGES. And run some. And ficathons. All of them. Well, maybe, lol.)


2. While not doing NPT, I did quite a lot of family history (tidying, small bits of transcribing and typing up mostly, but more and more consistently than I've managed for six years), which is amazing. If I have been quiet lately, that was one of the reasons.


3. Also I wrote some more ficlets (while not writing my NPT fic, I know, I know. I should be able to do it; it's just never quite that simple). Two more for the meme, one for the Commentfest (it hasn't entirely ended yet):

I've kept seeing this around, and while I never want to do a consecutive 30 Days Meme again, ever, I like the idea of this one. I have, however, left out Doctor Who, because that would have taken up all 30 days, and [livejournal.com profile] infinitejoys is doing very nice work on that front as it is.

So, starting with Blake's 7 in a sort of reverse chronological order, because when I think about awesome female TV characters, even though B7 is a recent thing for me, all of the main B7 female characters are people that Leela and Ace would approve of. (Even some of the passing minor characters, and then there's Servalan, who is in a category all her own, obviously.)

There are two classic ways of dealing with an hysterical woman - you didn't expect me to kiss her, did you? )

I can't be all that repulsive... )
