Fire in the Hole

Okay, so since I realized that the amount of fics I have in my LJ has increased surprisingly (and not just because of Fanfic100), I decided to do something I've seen in a few other journals: Give you a post where all of them can be found with title (plus link), summary and short additional info such as pairing or content warnings. Also, all of them are posted in correct reading order, not necessarily writing order and I decided to break them up by category, so here we go:

( Stargate )

( Star Wars )

( Battlestar Galactica )

( Leverage )

( Warehouse 13 )

( EUReKA )

( The Lord of the Rings )

( Firefly )

( Harry Potter )

( Disney )

( Crossover )

PS.: Wholly unrelated to the stories but... if you friend me out of not quite obvious reasons for me (i.e. not being member of one of the communities I'm member of or being a friend of a friend or sharing interests with me), please have the decency to drop me a line why you friended me. Otherwise, I might feel compelled to think you're a bot and I really don't like bots, you know.

Important note regarding my posting policy: 

As of now I actually have a new job and because I'm probably even more paranoid than Fox Mulder, I will post more or less all entries regarding personal issues as friendslocked. I might even decide to f-lock the journal in general and only post the fannish entries as public. Anyway, if any of you lurkers would like to read the personal life entries as well, please notify (either here in the comments or via private message) and friend me.

Title: Close Encounters of Another Kind
Fandom: Warehouse 13/Leverage
Rating: K+
Genres: gen
Recipient: rodlox
Prompt: Leverage/Warehouse 13, Parker and H.G. Wells, Parker and H.G. watching Stargate Universe
Summary: Television is something that keeps fascinating Helena.
A/N: Holiday Fic Request Meme. That was fun to write! No, seriously, once I had the idea for the actual setting, it was fun but honestly? I was very tempted to make it Wormhole Extreme: Universe... What? I told you my mind is hardwired to Stargate. And I'm not ashamed of it! Anyway. Hope you have as much fun with it as I had :D

Title: With the Left Over You
Fandom: Stargate/Leverage
Rating: K+
Genres: gen, apocafic (kinda)
Recipient: mackenziesmomma
Prompt: Leverage/Stargate, Eliot Spencer and Laura Cadman, More alike than you know
Summary: Eliot Spencer is back in the US, in search of his old team. He finds someone else first.
A/N: Holiday Fic Request Meme. Yay, part two of the crossover! And no, no 'verse name for it. As you all know, if you name something, you can't kill it and you have to keep it. I have enough 'verses as it is. I ain't keeping this one. Seriously, I won't. Not... until I'm done with all the other 'verses in the queue. At least. Yes.

Title: Go On
Fandom: Leverage
Rating: K+
Genres: gen
Recipient: abvj
Prompt: Leverage, Parker, like a blister in the sun
Summary: You know you can't stay at Archie's. Pre-series.
A/N: So. Holiday Fic Request Meme, here we go. First piece was requested by abvj and she threw me a real tough cookie with her prompt. I actually agonized a while over this because, you know, it's the first one and I'd wanted to have at least this one finished to post it on schedule (so far, I have 11 finished and am trying hard to finish a twelvth. I'm still determined to finish them all on time but I'm making no promises. Deal?). This fic only came to you because mackenziesmomma pushed me in the right direction. Just saying.

( Go On )

Since I vaguely annonced in one of my latest story posts that I would do another "30 Days" post in the next couple of weeks and I have a spare day today and mackenziesmomma poked tentatively asked me to write one, I'm hereby doing exactly that (even though I'd rather like to write a post on how stupid the statement "There are only very few "legal" ways to stalk a person" is, seeing as rareb and I once found out real name, real address, real trained for job and real current job of a girl from that forum with only her forum nick and forum profile in a little unter 30 minutes... but I guess there will be time for that later). Yes. But first of all, all answered questions:

1. Tell us about your favorite writing project/universe that you’ve worked with and why.
2. How many characters do you have? Do you prefer males or females?
3. How do you come up with names, for characters (and for places if you’re writing about fictional places)?
4. Tell us about one of your first stories/characters!
5. By age, who is your youngest character? Oldest? How about “youngest” and “oldest” in terms of when you created them?
6. Where are you most comfortable writing? At what time of day? Computer or good ol’ pen and paper?
7. Do you listen to music while you write? What kind? Are there any songs you like to relate/apply to your characters?
8. What’s your favorite genre to write? To read?
9. How do you get ideas for your characters? Describe the process of creating them.

And that's the current one:

10. What are some really weird situations your characters have been in? Everything from serious canon scenes to meme questions counts!

Title: Take You Higher
Fandom: Leverage
Characters, Pairings: Eliot, Parker, Eliot/Parker
Word Count: 1,109
Rating: T, to be on the safe side
Summary: They were supposed to take the direct road from A to B... but Parker wanted the scenic route. And what Parker wants, Parker gets.
Author's Notes: This is just a silly little something I wrote after being inspired by the song I used (and which is not related to the Fragments 'verse)... and my beta mackenziesmomma tried to bribe me after the end... ah, just read it ;)

Anyway, as always: Not a native speaker, so please excuse any weird grammatical constructions, run-ons and typos. Feedback will earn you a cookie, flames will roast my marshmellows.
