Seriously, I'm trying to wrap things up here...

[quaggy_mire]

So, I've been thinking about fic writing and writing in general and have decided that I will try to finish ever pending fic I have languishing around by next spring. So, I wrote down every fic I was either actively working on or mulling over.  I figured if I posted a fic a week, I would be done with time to spare. Ha.

The problems with the plan:

Thank you! You're really wonderful, you know that? You make me think I can finish ever fic on this stinking list. :-)

Witch Hunter Robin is probably my favorite anime series. I should warn you though, it's set post-series, so it's very spoiler heavy. And it's a non-canon pairing. I actually don't mind them now at all, but the first time I watched the series, I really didn't like the Robin/Amon pairing at all.

And as for Mickey/Martha... I've always wanted both characters to have a happy ending and the fact that they get to have one together is actually all kinds of awesome.

Isn't lucky we prefer the same ships?

I totally agree with you about Martha & Mickey. (Note to self: I need a Martha icon.) I really loved the idea of Martha/Tom and if it had been anybody other than Mickey, I would have been really PO'd that they hooked her up with someone else. Actually, I know I should still be annoyed since it's technically "hooking up the spares"... or worse, "hooking up the ethnic minorities", but it's Mickey & Martha, so I honestly don't care.

And not to tip my hand too much, but my basic idea is that the Doctor (who knows this things being a Time Lord and all) chose a time in the future when Mickey and Martha were both together, but it had taken them years to get to that point. The fic is Mickey sort of admiring Martha from afar while she is married to Tom and what happens after she becomes a widow.

Rumors (Casey gets upset over the idea of Dan/Dana. Yes, it's actually Dan/Natalie.)

Ooh, finish this one!

I can actually picture scenarios wherein Dan/Dana makes a weird kind of sense, so - I like, I like!

[quaggy_mire]

I think I'll be able to finish all the Sports Night ones pretty easily. I make no promises as to WHEN, but I promise they will be done and posted eventually. I think I've made it my own personal mission to convert as many people as I can to the idea of Dan/Natalie. :-D (And yeah, Dan/Dana could actually work as a pairing, but I could never realistically see it happening.)

[flippet]

Oh, goodie. :-)

Yeah, I really like Dan/Natalie, there's a sweetness there that I would have loved to explore.

As for Dan/Dana - I could see that as a 'friends-with-benefits' kind of thing, or as a 'substitution' for what one or the other really wants. Something mutually (possibly silently) agreed-upon, but without emotional strings. Too many, anyway - you need to manufacture one or two if there's going to be a quality fic out of it!

I could see that as a 'friends-with-benefits' kind of thing, or as a 'substitution' for what one or the other really wants.

Yeah, I suppose. But honestly, I see it more of a case of them having to much history to ever see each other in a romantic light. They had known each other for years... but if they had just met, they probably would have really hit it off. Instead, their shared history just cements their friendship into something wonderfully strong and permanent.

I vote Destination (post-Transition fic combined with destination wedding fic. . Happy Josh and Donna would be nice on the scale of niceness.

[quaggy_mire]

I will do my best, but I'm not kidding when I say that fic is a royal pain in my side. I was experimenting with style and POV and the experiment failed miserably.

[quaggy_mire]

Look, look! I have a Martha icon now!

I can't wait to read it :)

Heh. You're unfortunately, going to have to wait a while. I only just started it. I am tempted, though, to send you the opening I've written, just cause I like it. :-)

[quaggy_mire]

Well, where there's an opening, the rest of the fic is sure to follow! Especially when you like what you've done so far.

I keep telling myself that, but the Muse does not agree. :-P But I'm sure I'll finish it eventually. I even found an appropriate Mickey/Martha icon in anticipation.
