It's quite a while since I last posted, the reason being that real life has been so busy I've barely had time to think, much less write. But I figured I should try to keep it from being completely quiet around here, so I'm reccing two fics instead, for the show Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.

A Jack Knifed Juggernaut (I am born again) by arenotvalid. Cameron-centric. A look at her perspective on things, which isn't the easiest thing to write, considering what she is, but it's wonderfully done. Spoilers up to episode 2.01.

smoke in your mouth by fated_addiction. John/Cameron. I'm not really into the pairing, but this is gorgeous. Spoilers up to episode 2.03.

Back from my Big Adventure, vacationing with geekmama and jenthegypsy, and hendercats joined us for a bit, too! It was such fun, and I didn't get quite as much writing done as I had hoped, but I have one of the request ficlets here and I'll try to finish the others as quickly as possible.

Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: The characters and settings referred to here are not mine. No infringement is intended and no profit is made.
Summary: Hook (Jason Isaacs' version)/Adult Wendy. Companion piece to Fearless.
Author's note: For scatteredlogic. The prompts were "silk fan" and "orange". Thanks to geekmama for editing.

( Breathless )

I don't think I've posted this much in... ever. But as I mentioned in a previous post, I'll be going away for a while. I have a long journey ahead of me, and I'll need something to occupy my mind, so I've decided to take requests.

I’ll write something for those of you, up to five persons, who comment on this post with a character or a pairing of your choice and a prompt, which can be a word, several words or maybe a situation, something you want to read about.

I promise a drabble (100 words), at the least, but it might end up longer, depending on the ideas. I’ll finish and post as soon as I can after I get back home. I think most of you are aware of what I’m okay with writing—if in doubt, ask—otherwise, go ahead and request.

ETA: I've five requests now, but since none of them were J/E ones... I'm extending this to one more person, the first who gives me a J/E prompt. After that the spots are filled.

Title: Fearless
Rating: PG-13 (sexual situations)
Disclaimer: The characters and settings referred to here are not mine. No infringement is intended and no profit is made.
Summary: Hook (Jason Isaacs' version)/Adult Wendy, for whitemunin's birthday.
Author's note: Um. I said that was it, didn't I? Apparently I was wrong. With thanks to geekmama for looking it over for me!

( Fearless )

So, in case there are any of you who haven't seen it yet... If you like Joss Whedon, or Nathan Fillion, or maybe Neil Patrick Harris, or think you might like a quirky, funny story about, and I quote, "a low-rent super-villain, the hero who keeps beating him up, and the cute girl from the laundromat he's too shy to talk to," then you should watch Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, which airs online in three short episodes this week. You can see it here, if that doesn't work, go here.

As for me, I can't wait until the next episode on Thursday...

Title: Shredded Sails
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: Disney's. I don't own it. No infringement is intended and no profit is made.
Summary: Pre-CotBP. The crew of the Black Pearl in the early days of the curse.

Title: Diversion
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: Disney's. I don't own it. No infringement is intended and no profit is made.
Summary: One of those vague post-AWE snippets.
Author's note: Posting a lot lately, or a lot for being me, at least. This is a little thing for my dear geekmama, who knows why.

( Diversion )

Title: In the Kitchen
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: The characters and settings referred to here are not mine, they belong to Joss. No infringement is intended and no profit is made.
Summary: All dialogue. A conversation in the kitchen.
Author's note: Because these are like little cheer-me-ups to write, and I needed that. Also, it's been a long time since I posted one. Set, like the rest, more than a year after the movie, at a point when the two of them are in an established relationship. Thanks to geekmama for looking it over for me.

Disclaimer: Disney's. I don't own it. No infringement is intended and no profit is made.

Title: Wicked Games
Rating: R (hard R, I think)
Disclaimer: The characters and settings referred to here are not mine, they belong to Joss. No infringement is intended and no profit is made.
Summary: Mal and River alone in the galley, late at night.
Author's note: Something rather different from my usual posts... This is dedicated to geekmama, who encouraged me to write it and then to expand on what I first sent her, because we both really needed some distraction. Of course, I also owe her thanks for editing and excellent suggestions. It's set more than a year after the movie, and I'm thinking it belongs to the same storyline as Playing With Fire, though it takes place later on, when they are in a relationship.

Summary: One version of a post-AWE encounter.
Author's note: Real life got in the way, but here's the fic I was originally going to write for geekmama's birthday. She requested Jack and Elizabeth meeting for the first time post-AWE and/or dreams vs. reality, and I tried to fit that in. Thank you goes again to jenthegypsy for beta reading.

( Crossing Paths )

Wishing the happiest of birthdays to my friend and beta, the wonderful geekmama! *throws roses and confetti* I still remember the first time I ever asked you to beta-read something for me, it was way back in 2004, before we knew each other properly. I was so nervous and you were, as always, so very kind. Your advice and support, on fannish and other things, means more than I can say and I hope you know how much I appreciate it. I wasn't able to finish what I meant to give you for your birthday in time, for which I'm sorry, but I managed to pen down this little thing to tide you over until later.
