Ficathons

I did some ficathons towards the end of last year and didn't talk about them (although one of them has only just had author reveals).

Doctor Who
There was [info]tardis-festivities where I received a Six and Evelyn fic where Evelyn is right and saves the world, which is what I love about those two:

Fit for a King (838 words) by lurking_latinist
Fandom: Doctor Who (Big Finish Audio)
Rating: General Audiences
Relationships: Sixth Doctor & Evelyn Smythe
Characters: Sixth Doctor (Doctor Who), Evelyn Smythe
Additional Tags: Historical, Fluff, Baking, Dessert & Sweets
Summary:At the end of an adventure, Evelyn faces one more challenge that will call on all her skills...

I wrote an Amy/Rory fic. I had a blank sign up for this, so I went through various ideas for plots before realising that I had no idea how to solve them/they didn't make sense. I remembered that they had bunk beds on the TARDIS and decided to write something about that.

Wedding Nights are Cool (972 words) by paranoidangel
Fandom: Doctor Who (2005)
Rating: General Audiences
Relationships: Amy Pond/Rory Williams
Characters: Rory Williams, Amy Pond (Doctor Who)
Additional Tags: Wedding Night, Beds
Summary: It's Rory and Amy's wedding night, but their bedroom isn't quite what they expected.

Star Trek
And then [info]startrekholidays carries on with the cookery theme for my gift, which had Pike finding bugs in his flour and then it all goes interesting from there:

When There are Bugs in the Flour (2076 words) by Ljparis
Fandom: Star Trek, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds (TV)
Rating: General Audiences
Characters: Christopher Pike
Additional Tags: Food, Starship Enterprise (Star Trek), Cooking, Bugs & Insects
Summary: Captain Pike finds something unwelcome in his pantry.

I kept looking at the sign ups for this, getting excited about various characters/pairings and adding them to my offers. And then ended up getting the most recent pairing I got excited about, which worked out quite well in that respect. And then I once again came up with a plot that just didn't work before I remembered an idea I'd mostly forgotten about.

Baby Dream (2077 words) paranoidangel
Fandom: Star Trek: Enterprise
Rating: General Audiences
Relationships: T'Pol/Charles "Trip" Tucker III
Characters: Charles "Trip" Tucker III, T'Pol (Star Trek)
Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Pregnancy
Summary: Now is the time for Trip and T'Pol to have a baby, but nothing is ever easy for them, especially where children are concerned.

Yuletide
I didn't sign up for Yuletide. I didn't want to overdo the ficathons like I did at the end of last year. But I did manage to write some treats in that last week before Christmas when everything's quiet.

When all the requests were visible I was off work ill. It was sad that SJA wasn't requested, but Rani Takes on the World was, so it was a good excuse to re-listen while I was ill.

Time Bubble (1434 words) by paranoidangel
Fandom: Rani Takes on the World (Big Finish Audio Drama)
Rating: General Audiences
Characters: Rani Chandra, Clyde Langer, Samira Rustami
Additional Tags: Timey-Wimey
Summary: Rani's trapped and Clyde is going to save her. Just like old times.

And hhertzof's Chalet School request was just begging for some present day silliness. I think I wrote the fic in less time than I spent looking at the Maynard/Bettany/Russell kids names to come up with all the prefect's names.

The New Prefects of the Chalet School (1041 words) by paranoidangel
Fandom: Chalet School - Elinor M. Brent-Dyer
Rating: General Audiences
Characters: Original Female Character(s)
Additional Tags: Worldbuilding, Post-Canon, Tongue-in-cheek
Summary: It's September 2023 and the first prefect's meeting of the new school year is about to take place.

Auction
I also bid in an auction for the first time and got a long time loop fic:

Breakfast of Champions (12729 words) by sunlitroses
Fandom: Star Trek: Strange New Worlds (TV)
Characters: Erica Ortegas, Christopher Pike, Number One | Una Chin-Riley (Star Trek), Christine Chapel, Joseph M'Benga, Spock (Star Trek), Nyota Uhura, La'an Noonien-Singh, Pelia (Star Trek)
Additional Tags: Time Travel, Shenanigans
Summary: The Captain was hosting a breakfast gathering in his quarters. Number One was passing drinks. Spock was burning the pancakes. It was a morning like any other.

Until it wasn't.
