I am very very very tired - got up sixish following a very unsettled night and spent several hours race-marshalling on Queen's Green. (Got up before my AO3 kudos email! that is my definition of early.) It's for charity, it was good fun if freezing cold, and there were literally more than a thousand runners - it seemed very much like every local business and every university faculty had a team, which made for a feeling of general camaraderie if very unwieldy team names. (It's quite difficult to shout, "Go, go South Cambridgeshire District Council!" but people womanned up and did it.) Work had four teams. I stood there in my high-vis and attempted not to yawn.

Anyway. I am tired and trying hard not to fall asleep. To that effect, let's do this, nabbed from [personal profile] fahye:

Pick a trope from this list and provide a fandom/pairing and I’ll tell you something about the story I’d write for that combination (i.e. write a snippet from the story or write not!fic or tell you the title and summary for the story I would write)

1. genderswap
2. bodyswap
3. drunk!fic
4. huddling for warmth
5. pretending to be married
6. secretly a virgin
7. amnesia
8. cross-dressing
9. forced to share a bed
10. truth or dare
11. historical AU
12. accidental-baby-acquisition
13. apocalypse fic
14. telepathy
15. High School/College AU


I should probably warn you I'll just end up writing you snippets. My fandoms are all listed on my AO3 page.

edited to add: haven't seen yesterday's Doctor Who. So anything but that but things related to yesterday, I mean. Doctor Who in general is fine!

Fic(lets):

for [personal profile] philomytha, Aral and Simon and telepathy

for [livejournal.com profile] ladymercury_10, Amy/Rory, huddling for warmth
philomytha: airplane flying over romantic castle (Default)

Lots of sympathy for the sleep deprivation - my son has been on a not-sleeping jag this weekend, and ugh, it's no fun at all.

I will run true to form and say, can I have Aral and Simon and telepathy, please?

Vorkosigan canon manages so many of those, but: Vorkosigan, apocalypse fic.

I'm not sure I am good enough at fandoms to um fandom at you, but I merely want to state how deeply beautiful I think a fanfic containing all fifteen of those tropes at once would be.

I am not being greedy but I can't make up my mind, so write one of these: Mark and Miles, forced to share a bed, or Simon and Alys, pretending to be married. Thank you! (and your one for Philomytha is spectacularly lovely).

Oh hell. M*A*S*H*, either bodyswap or secretly a virgin.

Remus/Sirius, amnesia!

Vorkosigan, Aral/Alys, pretending to be married or historical AU. (I can't decide between the two, so whichever you prefer.)

Doctor/River, huddling for warmth.
(Belated edit: obviously this does not have to include last night's Doctor Who in the slightest.)

Yay for race marshalling, although not for being tired. A while ago I was on a water stand for a local half-marathon that the charity I work for was involved in, and it is good fun, even if it involves getting up at the crack of dawn. (There's another race that we organise in a few weeks; I am thinking about volunteering, although it would probably involve getting up at 6.)

Would it be all right to do Doctor Who, but either barring spoilers for yesterday's episode, or waiting until you get to see it? If so, how about Amy/Rory and #4?

You are great! I've been thinking about your recent post with autumn and mental health. I don't really have much to say, there, other than that it's something I've been thinking about as well. Race-marshalling sounds fun; I've thought about doing it, but have yet to person up on that one.

I'd love truth or dare, or accidental-baby-acquisition in the Firefly universe.

I am liking 'womanned up' as a phrase. :D

The West Wing and 15 could be fun since Josh often acts like a teenager anyway!

Not sure if you're still taking requests on this one, but if you are: Sherlock/John, truth or dare

This may be too easy, but Middleman: the Middleman and Wendy Watson, truth or dare.

Alternately, bodyswap John Watson and Wendy Watson.

I'd really like some MASH apocalypse fic (since several of the tropes are canon and Korea could be fairly apocalyptic).

I know I am super late, but... Douglas/Martin drunk!fic? Because I am nothing if not predictable. *sigh*
