Ficlet:: State of Grace

This one is for ancalemon, who wanted Battlestar Galactica and Doctor Who to somehow collide. (I did consider cheating and making this gamesiplay's request too, but no, she'll get her own BSG fic fairly soon.)

This one, however, surprised me in how dark it ended up. Also, I haven't seen BSG season two - we don't get it till September - so mistakes are probably par for the course.

Real life stuff

I didn't go on the Phantom trip, in the end. This is because of some bad communication but mostly total disorganisation on my part, and to all concerned, I'm really sorry. I don't mind missing the trip, but I do mind pissing people off. I'm sorry.

Today, therefore, has been busy. The day after the results came out, I got a big massive huge package in the post from Balliol (hence this icon, which I can now use without fear of jinxing myself), and have spent all my time since sifting through it. I need to fill out medical registration forms, go and see my doctor and get vaccinated against, well, everything (specifically, MMR and meningitis C, and I may as well finish getting vaccinated against hepatitis B), go and see my dentist too (this would be my much-too-attractive-to-be-a-dentist dentist), get several passport photos of myself, fill out attached forms, and just read the things they have sent me.

Also, need to sort out tution fees and other stuff. (I get a Bodleian library card! Is it wrong that this makes me squee?)

Once this is all done, if it ever is, I need to go into Pritchard's as well, have a word with Tony about finishing work, and go through my reading list (might as well put the discount to good use) before getting back and then perhaps looking into booking my driving test. If I don't pass before I leave, I'll cry, but crying does seem likely as I don't get any better.

Argh, real life bites back. Briefly on the fandom front, anyone who requested a fic will get a fic (or drabble). Additional requests may be considered. And I may even attempt to finish watching Destiny of the Daleks today.

Still, I'm quite excited about all this. I'm actually going away to university in a month. Hee.

[If I disappear and don't come back, it's 'cause the internet is cranky today.]

Ficlet:: Freshers' Week

minttown1 wanted Daniel/Rodney, but had no thoughts on setting. I happened to get her comment while making my first excavations of the massive paper mountain the college sent to me, so a topic for her fic naturally suggested itself.
