Alphabetical Fic Meme
New-to-me fic meme snagged from astrogirl:
Rules: How many letters of the alphabet have you used for starting a fic title? One fic per line, ‘A’ and 'The’ do not count for 'a’ and ’t’. Post your score out of 26 at the end, along with your total fic count.
LIkeastrogirl, I went for the first fic for each letter, saving only once or twice where I really didn't want to, because it's not as if it's a rule in this meme.
A - An Absolutely True And In No Way Fabricated Account of the Difficult, Dangerous and Entirely Improbable Invention of the Biscuit (Bleak Expectations, Sir Philip Bin)
B - Baby Don't Get Hooked On Me (Public Eye, Frank Marker/Helen Mortimer)
C - Cameo (Sapphire & Steel, Jasper, Tin, Jet)
D - Damned Giraffe (Discworld, Death, Death of Rats, A Giraffe)
E - Each A Glimpse And Gone Forever (Chalet School/Doctor Who, Seventh Doctor, Hilda Annersley, Ace McShane)
F - Fading Fast (Spooks, Ruth Evershed/Harry Pearce, Beth Bailey)
G - A Gallifreyan at Blandings (Blandings/Doctor Who, Tenth Doctor, Galahad Threepwood, Earl of Emsworth, Constance Keeble, Beach, the Empress of Blandings).
H - Half an Angel (Shadow of the Tower, Henry VII/Elizabeth of York)
I - I Do, I Do, I Do (The Month of Sundays Remix) (Doctor Who, Thirteenth Doctor/Most of her other selves, Yaz, Graham, Ryan).
J - Jo Grant, Assassin For Hire (Doctor Who. Jo Grant, the Brigadier, Third Doctor).
K - Keeping Secrets (Blake's 7, Dayna Mellanby/Del Tarrant)
L - Ladies in Waiting (The Hardest Part) (15th C RPF, Margaret Beaufort, Elizabeth of York).
M - Made For Each Other (Adam Adamant Lives! Adam Adamant & Georgina Jones).
N - Nature Is Red (Doctor Who, Tenth Doctor/Leela).
O - Of Elements and Existence (Sapphire & Steel/Discworld, Steel, Death, Sapphire, Ridcully, Silver, Nanny Ogg, Granny Weatherwax, Ponder Stibbons).
P - Painted Smiles (Blake's 7, Servalan).
Q - Quandrangle (Sapphire & Steel, Sapphire & Silver & Steel).
R - Random Factors (Good Omens/Doctor Who, Aziraphale, Vicki Pallister).
S - Salt of the Earth (Doctor Who, Mrs Martha Tyler, Jack Harkness, Twelfth Doctor).
T - Take the Second Path (OUaT, Regina Mills/Emma Swan, Rumplestiltskin, Cora Mills).
U - Unbreakable (OUaT, Regina Mills).
V - Valley of the Shadow (Dracula 1968, Jonathan Harker/Mina Harker).
W - Waiting For the Sky to Fall (Enemy at the Door, Philip Martel & Dieter Richter).
X -
Y - you asked me how i knew (my true love was true) (The Lady Vanishes, Iris Henderson/Gilbert Redman).
Z -
That was an interesting way to go through the fic, and a pretty representative mix of fandoms, really. Most surprising thing to me was that I only have one work beginning with K. And that's 24/26, as I don't have either an X or a Z, but those are hard letters to casually have in your titles. I clearly need to work on that, presumably in the SFF fandoms, heh.

Age: 61, but reversed lol.
I mostly post about: Anything I want to express, but I usually talk about my life experiences and my thoughts on random topics.
My hobbies are: Writing, drawing, making comics, petting my cat, taking photos, observing nature, sometimes reading, imagining surreal things, watching YouTube animations.
My fandoms are: I’m not really a fandom guy, I like some media, but I don’t interact with the fandom often. There are some media I like: Madoka Magica, Dandadan, Deltarune, Undertale, Ghost and Pals, Gorillaz, Weezer, Vewn Channel, Ghosttundra Channel.
I’m looking to meet people who: Enjoy things like romance stories, horror stories, surrealism, nature, and people who don’t mind me being a little weird.
My posting schedule tends to be: irregular lol.
When I add people, my dealbreakers are: extremists, people over 19.
Before adding me, you should know: I’m Brazilian, so my English isn’t the best, I’m kinda obsessed with certain words, like “lol,” I’m a bit insecure and anxious, My memory is kinda bad, and I don’t know very well how to start a conversation.

SGA: Living Will series by Toomuchplor
Fandom: Stargate Atlantis
Characters/Pairings: John Sheppard/Rodney McKay
Rating: Gen
Length: 1133 & 700
Content Notes: No AO3 warnings apply. There are explicit details about a normal full-term delivery in Plus Ça Change.
Creator Links: toomuchplor on AO3
Themes: Uncommon settings, Friends to lovers, Complete AU: hospital, Humor
Summaries: Technically he *wasn’t* Dr. Sheppard, not for another two months, but it was standard for medical students to introduce themselves that way. It reassured the patients. It didn’t do anything for John’s sense of inner calm.
“Unh,” said McKay, and folded his arms under his face before flopping down again. The position pulled the sleeves of his scrubs top taut around his biceps. “If I hide here it’s harder for the interns to find me.”
Reccer's Notes: For a fandom rich in AUs, there are very few medical AUs in SGA. This is an excellent two-part series and I recommend reading it in reverse series order, as the second part is a prequel. In Plus Ça Change, John blunders into an unexpected ER situation as a 4th year medical student doing an ambulance ride-along, and meets Rodney, a medical resident. The other story, Living Will, is set 3 years later by which time they know each other well and John's an ER resident, Rodney now being chief medical resident. The stories are funny, with great characterisation and snark, and accurate medical details. Very much recommended!

no_apologies) wrote in add_a_writer2025-10-25 07:31 amLooking for creative writing partners that I hope to inspire in return. <3
Name: Marianne (I also don't mind being referred to as Kitty, short for one of my main online aliases, Ancapikitty.)
Age: 41
Location: Northeast coast of the U.S.
About Me: Well, there's a LOT I could say about myself, but I'll just briefly describe my current life as is! I have been going through a lot over the past two years. I have been going through some really trying times. I have my own complex and personal spiritual connection with God but I am not heavily religious. He knows that I haven't been entirely happy in life lately, and I sometimes still have my moments in which I feel heartache and frustration over uncertainties, and doing all I can to steer clear from despairing... Thankfully, I have this really creative side to myself that gives me escape whenever reality feels too painful and unforgiving. Whenever I need to vent or express my inner emotional storms, or thoughts that just won't go away entirely.
Music and creativity is a healing and coping tool for my very sensitive heart and soul.
About My Journal: Lately I've been using this blog of mine over Google Docs to write out music style prompts and song lyrics, without having to worry about taking up too much space for my Google Drive. I keep a bunch of my songs stored on it, and I often listen to them from my phone. I share my songs with friends that way. And I often share them with my friends online as well.
What I Write: Sometimes I vent when I need to about whatever it is in my life that weighs me down or stresses me too much. Other times I write out songs that either help spread awareness to others about real-world issues that should be addressed, or just me expressing my thoughts about things I strongly think are so crazy-backwards and self-destructive things. (AKA, Liberty-Minded Tunes. I haven't been writing anything new in that area, but I have been remastering some of my favorites at times. My latest remaster is of and old song, a satirical as well as a critical stab at a very collectivist, socialist and communistic organization. It's a lengthy commercial jingle of a song. UNESCO rhymes with the old snack company, Nabisco. That's why the song is styled like that, lol)
I also have been writing a lot of songs centered around fictional characters. I recently used my Suno persona of this eldritch goddess of insanity, Xel'lotath, to make a new song that would be very in-character to her very, very awful and horrifying schemes. (This old and revived/renewed muse is the one who ENABLED me to get into the Suno personas.) Have a listen! Suno did a great job in making sure that her secondary, more chilling whispery voice is included. Xelly here is the one in charge of a 4-member Cosmic Horror/Psychological Horror music group that I decided to call "Team Insanity". I have a playlist that is meant to be ongoing for them. I already finished my epic and awesome Xel'lotath Album. (I'm a diehard fan of this old 2000's video game known as Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem. That album is my own custom soundtrack of Xelly, her creatures, her emissary, and other game lore. Even a funny song about the 4th wall breaks that occur, whenever a playable protagonist's sanity meter is very low.)
I have others, two others that are apart from Team Insanity; a Kirby and an really gentle and enigmatic ancient spirit of an original character, named Necrosan. I'll get back to them when I feel very inspired to. My own interpretation of that cute pink Nintendo character is a very cutesy and silly friend who is looking forward to his own "music career". The Necrosan songs are like chapters in a story about him, from his own narrative. Very interesting!
What I Don't Write: Pointless drivel, or content that lacks substance or doesn't carry any meaning for me. And, sexually explicit stuff is also not an interest of mine.
What I Have Been Reading: Most currently, I have been reading this manga series known as The Promised Neverland! It's a mix of cute and fantasy thriller/suspense. These kids have escaped from a place that appeared to be an orphanage on the surface level when in truth, they discovered the horrible secret that Grace Field House has been a place to raise and nurture children to be shipped off as food for demons. The oldest among them are really smart.
I have felt most drawn to the character Norman. He's a bit like me; being a sharp, smart strategist and very caring soul. But I'm not very good at math the way he is though, lol. (I might have a Norman Suno persona in the near future! Oh gosh that would be so cool.)
I would love to connect with kindred spirits! I yearn to write creatively with others, with these characters of mine. (Story writing or RP writing, or just coming up with song lyrics together--that'd be fun.) I have been riding on this creative momentum that's been uplifting and exciting for me. Let's have a grand time. Let's brainstorm! Let's experiment! My own ideas tend to be very big and crazy at times.

Starfall Stories 50
I've left it a while since I did a crosspost for rainbowfic, which was because I was doing a very long sequence divided up into five parts and wasn't sure what to do about it now it's complete - it's something like 28k altogether (this is what has been absorbing my whole writing time for four months, when I've had any). Anyway, I've decided I might as well crosspost all the parts at once and move on. People certainly aren't obliged to read any of it, let alone all of it.

SGA: When the City Wakes by esteefee
Fandom: Stargate Atlantis
Characters/Pairings: John Sheppard/Rodney McKay, Radek Zelenka, Elizabeth Weir, Ronon Dex, Teyla Emmagan, Carson Beckett, Evan Lorne, Aiden Ford, Bates, Laura Cadman, Jack O'Neill, Harry Maybourne, Jeannie Miller, Original Non-Human Characters, Imaginary Creatures from Story and Song, Atlantis.
Rating: Mature
Length: 30,758
Content Notes: no AO3 warnings apply. The author warns for kidnapping and children in peril. "They aren't injured, and they are rescued. One of their kidnappers is kidnapped in the process and then returned to her friends." There's also a warning for passages with creepy clowns - see the endnote.
Creator Links: esteefee on AO3
Themes: Uncommon settings, Worldbuilding, AU: apocalypse/dystopia, AU: fantasy/magic, Friends to lovers, First time, Humor, Action/adventure
Summary: Major John Sheppard was starving, delirious, chased by monsters to the edge of the world, when he raised the City from the sea.
Ten years later, Dr. Rodney McKay comes to the peaceful City, bringing war in his back pocket.
Reccer's Notes:
This fits the "unusual settings" category as the world depicted in this fic is extremely strange, surreal, and quirky. I've reccd it before but in a different category, and it's a story that's well worth re-reading. Despite the tags for fantasy and dystopia, it isn't traditional fantasy/magic at all, and it mostly isn't a straightforward dystopia. Yes, it's post-apocalyptic and the rest of the world's very dystopic, but Atlantis herself is a solarpunk refuge in the chaos. The story is set after the detonation of a quantum unreality bomb which plunged Earth into fantastical chaos where very few laws apply consistently - certainly not those of physics, or normality. Weird monsters, fantasy creatures, and dangerous improbabilities now abound, although much reduced in Atlantis. The worldbuilding's terrific, and woven into this new world is a story where John and Rodney meet and become friends, and more. There's also plenty of plot, including a daring rescue. It's an excellent read, and highly recommended!

every day interactions, projects i’m working on, movies, mostly just my every day life! i’m probably going to start posting some photography too.My hobbies are:
photography, cinema, writing, art in general, cooking, reading, watching obscure films & shorts, learning italian, thrifting, collecting vhs tapesMy fandoms are:
not really in fandoms much, but some of my media interests include: horror (halloween series, five nights at freddy’s, no i’m not a human, giallo films, killer7, deadly premonition, etc), speculative fiction (kathe koja especially), psychological thrillers, internet ephemera, weird niches in general. i’m really into things like mannequins, dolls, masks, and animatronics as well.I'm looking to meet people who:
are artsy & weird! people who always have a project going (doesn’t have to art related - stem can be included here too), activists,My posting schedule tends to be: just returned to dw (lifelong online journal-er though) sand i am fairly busy so it’ll most likely be weekly
When I add people, my dealbreakers are:
not really anything besides the obvious! just be respectful & tag warnings appropriately :)Before adding me, you should know: i had a deadjournal since i was 11, i think that says everything about me hahaha

Dear Yuletide Letter 2025
Thank you for writing for me! This letter is bound to be long, so tl;dr: I love all kinds of different things at different times, I love these fandoms and characters, and I'm sure to enjoy whatever you come up with.
Any prompts are intended purely for inspiration, not to restrict your choices. Take what's useful and leave what isn't. I hope you have a lovely Yuletide.
