November, eh?
So as some of you may be aware I have been doing Nanowrimo and... not much else for the last two and a half weeks. Behold, a status bar!
38216 / 50000 words. 76% done!
So that's been consuming my life a little. It's going to be a giant Arthur/Gwen, Merlin/Gwaine futurefic. With bonus Lancelot and the screwed up family of Carbonek.
I did manage to sign up for yuletide though! Somewhere between my villains evilly plotting evil things and Gwaine getting drunk (again). Don't actually remember what day that was. My yuletide letter is posted, if any of you are curious. I've gotta say, I'm pretty excited about this! Both about writing something new and getting new fic in one of my book fandoms. (I didn't set out to pick all book fandoms for yuletide, it just worked out that way.)
Before I forget, here are some excellent things that people have written this month:
Doctor Who/Merlin
The Future is Full of Possibilities (and chocolate biscuits) by the inimitable
netgirl_y2k
The Doctor and Donna accidentally kidnap Morgana and have adventures. Definitively proves that Morgana is not, in fact, evil, just in need of more chocolate hobnobs.
Merlin
Go-Between by
such_heights
Arthur/Merlin/Gwen coda for 3x10. I love things where Merlin acts as a matchmaker for Arthur and Gwen. Especially if he gets mixed up in his own meddling. *g*
Blackbird by
isabear
Freya/Morgana for the wingfic challenge at kinkelot. AU of episode 2x09 set in a world where... well, I wouldn't want to spoil the surprise. Suffice it to say I'd love to read more set in this universe.
It's not easy having yourself a good time by dollsome
Extremely cracky take on Merlin/Morgana in season 3. Will make you spit out your tea *wipes off monitor*.
Merlin/Harry Potter
Meeting the Minister by magog_83
Merlin/Arthur. Arthur is the new Muggle Prime Minister. Guess who the Minister for Magic is. Hilarious and classic Merlin and Arthur.
Sherlock (BBC series)
When first we practise to deceive by anonymous
Mycroft/Lestrade fic for the prompt: "Lestrade thinks Mycroft is only occupying a minor position in the british goverment."
Absolutely great, sweet, hilarious take on Mycroft trying to conceal the truth about his job while dating Lestrade. Complete in 16 parts. Scroll down from the prompt to read them all.
bonus!older fics that I came across while trawling for a Discworld fix on the AO3:
Sherlock Holmes (2009 movie)/Discworld
Expert Help by
lillian
Sherlock Holmes, um, "assists" with one of Sam Vimes cases. Extremely amusing.
Discworld
Class Action by
rivkat
Pecunia Loquitur, new lawyer in Ankh-Morpork, goes up against Vetinari on behalf of public health and safety. Excellent Discworld fic with classic footnotes.
