Not Prime Time is revealed, and I don't suppose anyone will be in the least surprised to learn which fics I wrote. I picked up the pinch hit because I've been meaning to write some of
karanguni's wonderful Aral/Simon prompts for ages, and in the end I came up with two ideas that made it all the way to completion,
Spectator Sport which is outsider POV on Aral/Simon, and
The Economy System which is Aral/Simon trying for sex without the chip recording it. I had a blast writing them both, though I did get into a pickle with the Jole section of Spectator Sport when I realised I'd misremembered precisely how Aral and Jole got together in canon, I had them getting together while they were at the Hegen Hub, but in canon it was before then. So I had to do some emergency rewriting there, but it worked out in the end. So that's kept me out of trouble for the past few weeks :-)
