Posting my

Thanks to everyone for the help and encouragement with this! And apologies for the cheapness of some of the shots.

Pirates! In an Adventure with an Ex-Seminarian

This is the masterlist of fics written for Running Hot III (2013):

The Avengers

The Burning House Paradox by fairy_laughing. Banner, Richards, and Stark are playing with a time-machine when it backfires and mini-Tony walks on through. This wouldn't be nearly as big of a problem as it is except that the time-space paradox of too much Tony Stark is causing them both to become horribly ill.

Fantastic Four/X-Men

I Hold With Those Who Favor Fire by

katekintail : Johnny Storm(Human Torch) /Bobby (Iceman)--When Johnny gets sick/delerious he can't control his flame - how far does Bobby have to go to keep him from incinerating himself into oblivion?

H50

In the Thicket of It by

thegrrrl2002: After being missing for a few days, Danny finds Steve 'somewhere' with an infected bullet/stab/shrapnel wound. Cue bad guys closing in and Danny being all BAMF getting Steve out while taking care of him.

Track Record by

ariadnes_string. Gen. "You," said Danny, "are the most uptight sick person I've ever met."

Lewis

The Last Man Standing Just Got Felled by a Lion by

thesmallhobbit. There's a nasty flu going around Oxford CID and Hathaway's been putting in long hours manning the fort. How long 'til he succumbs himself?

Unsound Mind by

wendymr. and Part 2. Robbie has flu, and he isn't the easiest of patients, as James discovers.

Ripper Street

A United Front, by

alizarin_nyc: Reid is ill--woozy, voice-less, unable to make good decisions. For whatever reason, this needs to be hidden from the bad guys/power that be, and it's up to Drake and Jackson to make this happen. What's worse, they actually have to work together!

Sherlock

Doctors Make the Worst Patients, by

themallhobbit: Doctors make the worst patients.

White Collar

Predisposed by

marieincolour, (gen): Neal gets sick with a high fever and goes walking outside of his radius. The US Marshals come to get him but don't realize he's sick until Peter (or another character) comes to collect him.

Untitled (WC S1) by

embroiderama: Out of his mind with fever, Neal thinks Peter is going to send him back in prison because he is useless.

The

lewis_challenge Secret Santa Exchange fics have been revealed! The masterlist is over here and includes many wonderful fics, including my lovely present, A Christmas Story. (Lewis fandom is an astonishing thing: the whole challenge went through without a single pinch hitter).

Here's my contribution:

Title: What Flowers are at my Feet

Rating: PG
Genre: h/c
Wordcount: 3,651
Warnings/Spoilers: n/a
Disclaimer: not mine, no profit.

a/n: thanks to

garry_owen for the beta!

What Flowers are at my Feet (on AO3)

you can also read it on lj at the exchange site.

I got two (two!) wonderful stories for Yuletide!

Lines of Salt (6359 words) by Anonymous
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: The Killing
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warning: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Sarah Linden & Stephen Holder
Characters: Stephen Holder, Sarah Linden
Summary:

He’s sitting in the waiting room (gauze on his cheek and elbow. His hoodie is destroyed and he sort of thinks that’s the true tragedy of this entire operation), watching Carlson’s triumphant press conference on the criminal he just collared, when Linden hobbles out of the back. He stands gingerly and meets her halfway. “Want the good news or the bad news first?”

There is so little fic for the awesomeness that is The Killing, and this is wonderful. The relationship between Holder and Linden is absolutely my favorite part of the show, and this writer captures it beautifully from Holder's point of view.

Other Days for Dreams (2751 words) by Anonymous
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Homeland
Rating: Explicit
Warning: Author Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings
Relationships: Nicholas Brody/Carrie Mathison
Characters: Carrie Mathison, Nicholas Brody
Summary:

What brought them together was gone; what was left?

This is a great fic focusing on a pivotal scene at the end of Homeland S2. Carrie and Brody's relationship is endlessly fascinating--and this writer brings out the hotness as well

Also! My gift for the Lewis Secret Santa exchange was posted last week--the very first one!

A Christmas Story (PG, v. mild Lewis/Hathaway first time).

A lovely story featuring H and L as the good eggs they are. It made even a non-Christmas-celebrating Grinch like me melt.

Hope you all had a good holiday, whatever it is you do or do not celebrate

omg, I finished my

kink_bingo card literally at the wire. This is G kink. It is also blink!kink--as in blink and you'll miss it.

Title: A Slice of Chocolate Gateau
Rating: G
Pairing: Lewis/Hathaway
Warnings: None
Word count: 2165
Disclaimer: not mine, no profit

a/n: for the "food" square on my

kink_bingo card.
a/n: also for the "accident" square on my h/c bingo card.

Summary: Dr. Hobson breaks her ankle. Lewis and Hathaway bring her cake.

A Slice of Chocolate Gateau (on AO3)

Between that and Halloween I'm just gonna go faint now. Hope y'all had a good night--catch you in the morning.

I've been lurking around this fandom for months: here is my first fic!

Title: As Holy Palmers Kiss
Fandom: Lewis
Pairing: Lewis/Hathaway
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: n/a
Word count: ~2.4K
Disclaimer: not mine, no profit.

a/n: for the "writing on the body" square on my

kink_bingo card.
a/n: thanks to

thirdbird for the beta! Any remaining mistakes my own.

Summary: Lewis doesn't fancy a second career as a writing pad. Hathaway has other ideas.

As Holy Palmers Kiss (link goes to AO3)

electricmonk333 has done an wonderful podfic of “Two Boys from Kansas in King Uther’s Court”, my SPN/Merlin xover, for

podficbigbang. At 36k, this is by far the longest thing I’ve ever written, and has more action scenes than the rest of my fics put together, but

electricmonk333 has a beautiful voice and does a wonderful job of sustaining the pace of the fic over 3 hrs and 38 minutes (a better job than the pacing of the story actually deserves, tbh).

As people always say, it is weird to listen to your own fic read by other people, but even though I sometimes wished I’d taken a red pencil to the fic before it was recorded (too many adverbs and epithets *facepalm*), I still laughed at an embarrassing number of my own jokes. Listening to the fic, which is set in SPN S1 and Merlin S1 (I even had to invent an extra knight for Camelot, as there were no knights in S1—can you believe it?), also reminded me of how much fun it had been to write SPN fic, which I haven’t thought about in a while.

**
Inspired by that, I, perhaps foolishly, decided my sons were old enough to watch SPN—S1 at least.

Son #2 drifted away, but son #2 and I devoured the pilot and “Wendigo” in one sitting. Omigod the boys were cute in those days, weren’t they?

( cut for my son immediately taking sides in fandom’s oldest debate )

I’ve run three times this week, and done two of my three 10k workouts (more on the other blog). Wondering when I’ll get the last one in, though, since the weather is supposed to be between 100-104F tomorrow through Tues. With a low of 75. Which means that if I run at 7am, it’ll already be 80. *wipes away anticipatory sweat*

**

In conclusion: Why can’t I go see Magic Mike the minute it opens, people, why? I will be kid-free on Tues., though, and that is the first thing I’m gonna do, I tell you what. I need that movie like whoa.
