Fannish things

May 30, 2014 20:39

Still feeling grumpy (and still unable to manage being a pirate and thus still have no OUaT. *pines and sulks*).

However, fannish things!

apocalyptothon is taking votes for fandoms to include in a multi-fandom apocalyptic exchange.

Random generators do have their little preferences. I think Sam was either the first or second character I typed into the list, not that that would make a difference.

73) Society Page Seduction - Maureen Child
Millionaire Irene Adler's bride to be left her standing at the altar and wedding planner Lucie Miller was dumbfounded when she was asked to fill in. Be Irene’s bride. For a year. What better way to escape her situation than by marrying a gorgeous, powerful stranger?

... well, I suppose Lucie was last seen in a situation that needs to be escaped.
146) Deeper - Megan Hart ( ... )

154) The Prince Who Charmed Her- Fiona McArthur
His princess in scrubs... Dr Rose Tyler knew that Prince Dalek Sec was not the man who would give her a happy-ever-after when he disappeared after their whirlwind affair. Even if she was the only woman who had infiltrated the steely barriers around his proud and dutiful heart. But now they are doctors working together aboard a cruise ship, and Sec realises there's one duty that has completely eluded him - his duty to himself. If he wants Rose to be his princess, he's got to prove that he's her Prince Charming after all...

The initial premise is scarily close to canon. Plus two metaphors that aren't metaphors any more: "whirlwind affair" and "steely barriers"...

Yes, after that, it wanted Polly/Sherlock to be a thing. :-)

I've been poking round the Mills and Boon website in search of more prompts and WHAT IS THIS?

Penniless Mary Rennie knows she’s lucky to have a home with relatives in Edinburgh, but she does crave more excitement in her life. So when her cousin’s ring is lost in one of several fruitcakes heading around the country as gifts Mary seizes the chance for adventure.

Oh, well, feed it into the generator. "Penniless %alice_l% knows %anom%'s lucky etc." and turn the handle a few times...
