Fic Request Post (Hurrah, new personal challenge!)

[eponymous_rose]

Because I haven't done one of these in a while, and I don't think it can possibly hurt, right? Can it?

Now that summer's on the horizon, and with it a teensy bit more flexibility in terms of timing and such, I'd love to start filling requests for various fics and such. I know several people have posted lately about the sort of fic they'd like to see in their favourite fandoms - now's your chance to get me to write 'em! I would be extremely happy to write in Doctor Who (any era), Man from U.N.C.L.E. (please?), Sapphire and Steel, and Sherlock Holmes fandoms, though you can push your luck and try something else to see if I'll go for it.

You know my style - I write gen, mostly, but am more than willing to dabble elsewhere if need be. Anything above PG-13 tends to come out a bit silly, though. Apart from that, anything goes!

(I also have a bad habit of twisting prompts to suit my own nefarious ends. Be forewarned.)

So here's my offer - give me a list of the sorts of fics you'd like to see, in whatever fandoms (as detailed as you like), and I shall do my utmost to work through the list in the coming months. I've still got a ton of fics left to write for 2008, so don't worry about loading me down with prompts!

Oooh! Oooh! Mistah Kottah!

Absolutely anything in Sapphire and Steel, preferably with some nice Sapphire/Steel UST (within the bounds of genfic or mild het), the creepier the better. And/or something more comic featuring Silver. And absolutely anything featuring the Fourth Doctor, your choice.

Re: Oooh! Oooh! Mistah Kottah!

[kricketkris.livejournal.com]

violetisblue hit everything I want (SS! SS! SS!), but substitute Third Doctor for Four, and add in a dash of U.N.C.L.E. with plenty of Illya!

[livii.livejournal.com]

Heeeex! Anything with Hex, really, though if it's got at least good subtext with Ace, you know I'll be thrilled. Maybe a missing-adventure style fic? :D

I'm always still on the lookout for (hopefully fluffy) Seven/Mel, and for someone to write Two/Polly.

[tigerkat24.livejournal.com]

I want John Chesterton! And Ace and Doctor Watson teaming up. Perhaps to save the Doctor and Holmes?

[elliptic-eye.livejournal.com]

-Who: The weather on a planet or moon with some kind of atmosphere inhospitable to human life, like Titan. Crack quite acceptible. Hey, I'd read it.
-There ought to be fic about an adventure that starts by taking the Doc's coat to the drycleaner—something about something going wrong while he's without it, something he accidentally leaves in the pockets, something. Because Doc/Coat = OTP. Any Doc, any coat, any companion along for the ride to bitch about it.
-Planet of Quarries
-While Sherlock is Great Hiatusing himself away in Switzerland drinking cocoa, Mycroft Holmes is—God and you alone know how—compelled to take a direct hand in some practical matter. Watson okay but not required.

All these intended as prompts/suggestions rather than demands, obviously. :)

[rachelbeann.livejournal.com]

"Because Doc/Coat = OTP"
I second this! ^^

[rachelbeann.livejournal.com]

Wee! I like this game ^^
I would really love anything with Four and Romana (I, II, all good!) Shippy crack is good, but gen is fine, too.
Oh! And Four/Romana/K-9 is love! *puppy dog eyes* :D

[happydalek.livejournal.com]

Doctor Who: 9/Not-Rose. Put him with somebody completely different, and see how it plays out. Non-traditional companion-types ftw.

Any Who/Holmes crossover would make me very happy. There is not nearly enough of these fics out there. Not nearly.

Good luck, and thanks for taking some of these bunnies away from me!

[jtree.livejournal.com]

Oh, I second the Doctor/Holmes crossover.. And there've been hints to that direction, haven't there? :) I would dearly love to read it.

[seularen.livejournal.com]

Oh dear god yes on the 9/not-Rose.

Who/Holmes would kill me. Kill me dead. Especially if it was Four or Five.

[ghost2.livejournal.com]

I'm watching First Doctor serials right now and I am in love with Barbara and Ian. So I'd like to request something centering around them. Fluffy, happy.

I'd also be interested in reading anything at all about Steven, Vicki, Ben or Polly (take your pick) after they've stopped traveling with the Doctor.

[stunt-muppet.livejournal.com]

I would like to request something with the Second Doctor, Jamie, and Zoe, please. No specific prompt, just, you know...them.

Also, I would like something with Silver/Steel subtext. Because I've just discovered that Silver is excellent, yes.

[nentari.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah. I second the Two, Jamie and Zoe request.

[hms-surrender.livejournal.com]

I'd be happy to read anything with Four or Harry or Sarah or all of the above. And not too much Four/Leela exists at the mo. Same with Three/Sarah.

And Random Pairing Generator K-9 / TARDIS / a dragon is a must.

[paranoidangel]

More of The Deepsky Atlas! Like an ending :)

How about Steven & Vicki and Steven & Dodo? And adventures with Three & Jo and Seven & Ace?

[wondygal.livejournal.com]

Ooh, I'd love to read anything about Peri! I love everything you've done with her so far, but I still don't think I get Peri, and how she feels about adventures, for example(so you should do the thinking for me). Also, you do awesome things with some characters fandom doesn't pay too much attention, like Liz and Susan and Vicki.

I haven't watched Sapphire and Steel yet, but I will, and if there's fic waiting when I'm done, that'd be all kinds of great. *g*

[tigerkat24.livejournal.com]

Oh oh oh! (yeah, hi, me again, I have a bad habit of this) Sarah Jane Adventures/Doctor Who. I want to see the Doctor's first reaction to Luke. :D

[mad-march-hare.livejournal.com]

I would really, truly love to see a cross-canon fic for Eight. Parallel universe, dimension shift, whatever, but the end result is Fitz Kreiner and Charley Pollard in the same room. Whether there's only one Eight or one for each companion is at your discretion. I just want to see what happens when Charley and Fitz get to meet and interact! ^_^

[subsequent]

Oh yes. ♥ Seconded! :D

[northern_magic]

I second Leela-fic and (*smirk*) K-9 / TARDIS / a dragon.

Also: Romana, last of the Time Lords, meet Mickey. And the (Doctor's) TARDIS, who likes her coral desktop thank you very much.

Don't suppose you'll turn your hand to a bit of House fic?

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

Don't suppose you'll turn your hand to a bit of House fic?

Definitely not until I've seen the latest season, but after that? Possibly.

In the meantime, there's always this one (http://stormmedicine.livejournal.com/951.html) I wrote in the midst of my Great Writerly Hiatus. Hurrah, nonlinear!

[subsequent]

Anything with Fitz and Eight would be wonderful please. :D Or - have you read Unnatural History? I'd love to see a piece with Dark!Sam. Prompt? Ummm... The meaning of a sound that is never heard. How's that? And thank you! :D

[avendya.livejournal.com]

Seconding Dark!Sam, because she's awesome.

[finmagik.livejournal.com]

I like to see all the Six Doctor's female companions Discuss him over tea.

[avendya.livejournal.com]

Anji and Martha, discussing a return to normal life after traveling with the Doctor. (Your choice on how Anji knows Martha.)

Clyde (from SJA, if you've seen it) at university. Girls vs. saving the world - decisions, decisions.

Oh, and seconding livii's request for MOAR HEX.

[paranoidangel]

Some happy Jo & Cliff fic.

[scarletsherlock.livejournal.com]

Oooh Ooh...sorry I've been behind my f-list...

How about something with Ace and Jack? Flirts, insults, stuff blowing up? Martha or Donna could make a cameo and I would die of squee.

Lestrade hits on Charley; hilarity ensues when Eight gets jealous.

How about a little bit of a difference in your theme: Holmes wonders why Watson is always messing around with that damn fob watch.

[seularen.livejournal.com]

-Holmes being genuinely snarky and cold.
-Mycroft and Sherlock interaction.
-Five and Turlough interaction, please please please.

Meetings:

[persiflage-1.livejournal.com]

Martha and Eight

Donna and Martha bonding

Martha and Harry Sullivan

Jack and Sarah Jane

[rapunzelita.livejournal.com]

*reminds you to write some wacky adventure!fic with the Eight/Charley/C'rizz team Tardis*

There. My duty is done :D

[dree-drey.livejournal.com]

More Deepsky Atlas pretty please!

[wondygal.livejournal.com]

More prompting! Well, I am very much in love with Donna, so: omg I just had a thought, Catherine Tate is a West Wing fan, and you watched the West Wing, wacky crossovers are begging to be written, someone stop me Donna with her family, post Runaway Bride? Or moar Liz Shaw please. Or the First Doctor! With whoever! Ooh! Jenny! Write Jenny! Jenny and Sarah! Jenny adventuring! Smiling and running!

[rapunzelita.livejournal.com]

(Raaah, damn LJ)

Not a request, not really, but I thought the idea might be interesting to you: Charley meets Irene Adler. Wouldn't that be just the most mwonderful kind of awesome?

[elyssadc.livejournal.com]

I can do prompts! Considering your career choice...how about the Doctor and companions stuck in a hurricane? Or even a tornado. I would love to see Six/Evelyn or Five/Nyssa or Seven/Ace/Hex the best. Something with them dealing with violent weather conditions and cut-off from the TARDIS. :-)

[rachelbeann.livejournal.com]

Alright, I'm going to go out on a limb...I would love to see X-Files fic from you ^_^

[oldstarnewshine.livejournal.com]

Hello! You don't know me from the moon or stars, but I read "The Wanderer Fantasy" on Teaspoon and as I don't have a username there, I came to LJ to beg and plead that you might finish it eventually, as I adored every word and the cliffhanger is driving me batty. (It's about fic, and it's a request, I'm in the right place, I hope.) I will grovel if necessary.

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

Hi there!

Wow, I hadn't expected anyone still remembered that fic. ;) Haven't updated since January, but the whole thing is hovering somewhere in my brain, just waiting to be, er, disgorged. You've encouraged me to sit down and plot the thing out, the better to finish it up! Though it may be a slow and meandering process, I will get the fic finished (sooner rather than later, I hope!).

(In the meantime, if you don't mind the utterly shameless self-pimping, I've got about a billion stories (http://eponymous-rose.livejournal.com/21929.html) up on this LJ that I haven't posted at Teaspoon. Yes, this is a diversionary tactic. Excuse me while I dash off to finish writing while your back is turned. *winks*)

Totally random note: Ainsley quote in your profile! Hurrah!

[oldstarnewshine.livejournal.com]

Shameless self pimping? Not when you write so well. *skips away happily to read* Glad I could give the fic a push!
I love Ainsley. She talks as weird as I do.

[tamlover.livejournal.com]

Not sure how you feel about the Sarah Jane Audios or Sarah Jane Adventures, but here is my request:

The gist of it is that after "Dreamland" Sarah pushed away Josh and Nat (from her investigations) for safety reasons - fitting in with early SJA where she's not wanting anyone else's life on the line. She and Josh were rescued by aliens, but Josh was unconscious and doesn't know that. Sarah claimed she lost consciousness, as well. Sarah may or may not still have social relationships with the two, but does not involve them in her work.

Would take place sometime during the Sarah Jane Adventures or shortly after "The Lost Boy." Josh absolutely does not know anything about aliens at the beginning of the story (excepting the prophecy stuff, which is a bit wonky).

Three major elements to the story:

1. Josh becomes suspicious that Sarah knows what happened on that spaceflight and is keeping secrets from him/lying to him. Tying this into his beliefs about the prophecy would be great. He suspicions could arise directly after the flight or only be happening now. But it causes tension and perhaps some distrust.

2. Sarah is not at all certain she would continue to work with Josh, even without fears for his safety (she kind of doesn't have that excuse anymore, with the kids involved) because of a strong distaste for his methods, and because she's not sure if she can trust him (due to the previous lies).

3. Josh finds out the truth about the prophecy and how it came to exist and must deal with what that means - how it affects his beliefs, his views of his actions, etc.

I prefer no Sarah Jane/Josh shipping. Heck, I don't even like Josh that much (the second and third big lies really bug me). But there's lots of interesting ways for his character to go, given the circumstances, and I'd just enjoy seeing some of them explored.

*sheepish*

I feel like a total dork for asking, but I would love to see what you could do with an MfU/DW-with-Three-and-Jo crossover. Even if you were only inclined to write a fairly short scene, that would still be fantastic.

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

...okay, I adore this idea like nobody's business. Something's going to come of it at some point!

[shannonsequitur.livejournal.com]

Perhaps this will help inspire you.

...I love the Internet.

[curuchamion.livejournal.com]

(I say. Did anything ever come of it?)
