Title: Sam Meets The Doctor (1/5)
Fandoms: West Wing, Doctor Who
WC: 589
Characters: Sam, The Doctor (Ten)
Rating: PG
Summary: Sam was used to people not knowing the High Holy Days. He wasn’t quite used to strange men coming out of Police Call boxes not knowing the year, but he was lonely after the death of Toby, and this man reminded him of Toby, in some way that he couldn’t quite place his finger on.
Notes: Written for tww_minis round of 'isolation', and daysofawesome. It's a 5-part, 5-day look at Sam and the Doctor's journey towards forgiving themselves during the high holy days- for the events of the past year. Set 2017- post series 4 for the Doctor (so the Doctor and 'past year' are meant to be taken liberally), and post Toby's death for Sam.

Notes: Written for lgbtfest. My prompt was: 761 [Harry Potter, Tonks, presenting as one gender is easier but why?]. Much love to econ_cat and chasingtides for the betas- especially Cath, because she did it last minute.

Rating: PG
Summary: Of being so god-like when the Decalogue clearly stated, right there in the third verse, second commandment, that there was only one God, and Huck was to have no other besides
Notes: Written for raedbard; prompt was looked at, inspired, and then totally thrown to the wind (er, sorry. But I promise you'll like it! I've even included ambiguity that you can decide what happens!); many thanks to my betas: dreamboat_kicks, quirkytaverna, and lolaleopard.

Title: Silences
WC: 1385
Characters: Jack and Meg Sloper, mentions of a smattering of others
Rating: Um, mild, for thematics
Summary: It was loss, bitter and deep. It was a hungering pain in the hollow of her belly. It was an empty bundle of blankets in a misty green room.
Notes: Written for hhhellcat. All characters belong to J.K. Rowling, but the characterisation of these characters are based on the Walpurgis Night RPG.

Title: Deconstruction
Characters: Toby/Sam
WC: 555
Rating: NC-17
Summary: A blow job is a work of art, deconstructed in stages. It is simple, yet complex; it is ordinary, yet beautiful.
Notes: Um, hai, this lacks any and all plot, unless you want to pretend really hard that there's plot involving the lights going out, then go ahead. But mostly? All about the blow-job.

Title: Never an Absolution
WC: 1,381
Characters: Andromeda Tonks, Charlie Weasley, cameos by Bill Weasley and Teddy Lupin
Rating: PG-13 for thematics / character death
Summary: Charlie goes to speak with Andromeda after the Battle of Hogwarts
Notes: Spoilers for DH. This combines several Charlies that I've played, along with canon!Tonks and several Tonks' that I've played. And of course, Andromeda is taken from the best Andromeda I've ever seen played. :) Yes, the title of the fic is from James Horner's Titanic, but you know what? The man is a god, seriously. And that song is amazing (especially the first 54 seconds). And it fits the theme of this fic. So there.

( Never an Absolution )

Title: Codex
WC: 1577
Characters: Reinette, angels, Satan (references to the Doctor)
Rating: Pg-13 for thematic
Summary: Satan takes on the angels for the fate of Reinette, who are themselves taking on the Doctor for the fate of Reinette.
Notes: This was written for alixtii as a pinch hit for ninebillion and her prompt was: Reinette. Choirs of angels, seraphim and cherubim, and Satan who rebelled against God.
Obvious spoiler is Doctor Who 2.04, The Girl in the Fireplace. Title derived from Reinette's line about her life being like a book and the slow/fast paths. Also, I'm not sure how great the French is in here, I used BabelFish.
Warnings: I took the Catholic Tradition of God (and Satan) and turned them on their heads to mesh it with the world of Doctor Who. God more so than Satan. God in this story is not all-powerful within the reaches of the Universe. I'm just going to put that out there in case anyone decides to get good and offended. It's not meant in any way to be offensive, but if you get iffy about that stuff, don't read.

Title: The Native and the Greek
WC: 357
Characters: Toby, Leo
Rating: G
Summary: Name one interesting thing about Ohio ...
Notes: prompt was car ride. Title refers to the names of both cities, both of which combine Native American themes/words and Greek words. Also, Toby says 'sir' which is just beyond awesome.

( The Native and the Greek )

Title: Lemonade
WC: 384
Characters: Toby and Josh (pairing is ambiguous at best), some vague Huck and Molly.
Rating: PG
Summary: He liked the weekends because sometimes he could tiptoe down to New York and no-one would notice.
Notes: The prompt was weekends. Like it says, the pairing (if there is one) is ambiguous at best. It's all in how you want to read it.

( Lemonade )

Title: How to (Not) Cook a Frozen Pizza
WC: 334
Characters: Sam, Josh, references to Donna and Toby
Rating: G
Summary: I'm telling you, I've studied this ...

Title: An Alley Near Orange and Hicks
WC: 553
Characters: Toby/UMC
Rating: um R for the details? I FAIL AT THIS
Summary: The lonely days when boys were too young to be drafted, but old enough to lose their girlfriends to those that were.
Notes: prompt was alleyway. It's another of Toby's 'first times' with a male. Orange and Hicks are, conveniently enough, two crossing streets in Brooklyn.

( An Alley Near Orange and Hicks )

Title: Ballroom
WC: 325
Characters: Toby/Ellie
Rating: G
Summary: You were married to a Congresswoman. You have to know how to dance

Title: Humidity
WC: 332
Characters: Toby/Sam

Summary: It was too hot to fuck and just cool enough to sleep

Title: Redding
WC: 562
Characters: Toby, Huck, Sam
Rating: PG
Summary: written exclusively for Em, as a continuation of Otis, in which Toby lives.
Notes: Written for Em, because she wants Otis to have a happy ending (it doesn't really). The ending to this is ambiguous as well.

WC: 2164
Characters: Helen, Hector (various others from Troy and Sparta)
Rating: PG
Summary: Home was outside her doorstep and she did not know which way she wanted to go.
Notes: Hokay. So, Helen doesn't go to Troy willingly. Title references the Nine Worthies. And yeah, those are the only notes you get.

( They Should Sing To His Name (Hector of the Worthies) )

Title: The Slaying of the Children of Niobe
WC: 674
Characters: Artemis and Apollo; Niobe and her children
Rating: PG, for light violence.
Summary: well, the title pretty much says it all
Note 1: Hokay. Greek Gods are HARD. Some of the children of Zeus are named in the story, but really, I think he had like, 50. At least! So just the major ones, really. (And even then, there's discussion on whether they 'count' or not! Rhadamanthys doesn't even make the list, poor thing.) Further complicating matters, Tantalus is ALSO a child of Zeus. Like I said, Greek Gods are HARD. This doesn't even BEGIN to cover it, though I did reference it for the conversation Artemis and Apollo have.
Note2: I used some of the more uncommon myths surrounding the twins and the Niobids. There are twenty in this story, and while Chloris and Amyclas are mentioned, I may not have kept them alive. I might have though. Which is why you should finally read. :)

( The Slaying of the Children of Niobe )

Title: Artemis the Hunter, Artemis the Hunted
WC: 1251
Characters: Artemis/Apollo, references to several other gods/characters
Rating: R (non-con)
Summary: They were born into it, the world of the gods, and this was the price they both paid for it.
Notes: Um … yeah. I don't know what to say about this, really. It fits the prompt, though not in a way I think the prompter might have suggested/wanted. I stayed with early mythology; Artemis is a hunter and not yet associated with the moon. Chione is regarded as an affair, thought I tweaked that a little bit. Several of the myths referenced have different outcomes/explanations attached to them; for those I went with the one that fit this particular story better.

( Artemis the Hunter, Artemis the Hunted )

Title: It Started On A Monday
WC: 574
Characters: Toby (and then in order of appearance): CJ, Josh, Sam, Ginger, Donna, and President Bartlet.
Rating: PG
Summary: Toby liked the violent atmosphere of 1968.
Notes: AU- the world is on the brink of nuclear war with China, or Russia, or Iran. Doesn't really matter. The events of 1968 are not necessarially told chronologically, though most of them are. Also? Despite the violence, and the war, 1968 America sounds like such an exciting time to be alive. Not happy, really, but exciting.
Prompt: Fire, for writing_rainbow

( It Started On A Monday )

Title: Knots With Promises
WC: 1272
Characters: Jack/Ianto
Rating: R
Summary: How does Ianto get out of the ropes in Meat?
Notes: there are snippets from the scene of Meat of Ianto getting out, I've italicised all the dialog. Spoilers for Countrycide and Meat. The knot that Ianto notices (and describes as symmetrical) is a pruisk. All the other knots you can leave up to your imagination. :)

( Knots With Promises )

Title: Taken
WC: 1831
Characters: Toby/Sam
Rating: NC-17

Title: Hesitation (Part Two)
WC: 1135
Characters: Toby, Ellie
Rating: PG
Summary: Ellie is summoned to the office directly after the events of 17 People.
Notes: Because Em said she'd cry publicly if I didn't keep writing them. (And also, you know, they're awesome. Timeline notes: This part takes place the day after 17 People, before Bad Moon Rising.

Title: Hesitation
WC: 1922
Characters: Toby, Ellie
Rating: PG
Summary: Set after "Ellie", Toby takes Ellie for a cup of coffee
Notes: The street names used do actually have coffee shops on them, small, independent coffee shops. Just the type you'd expect someone like Toby to frequent.

( Hesitation )

Title: Song of a Nightingale
WC: 1174
Characters: Jack/Ianto
Rating: PG, though there are sex references, so probably pg-13
Summary: Things change after the Year that Never Was. Jack touches him with more desperation. There are always more bruises
Notes: Written for round seven of rounds_of_kink.

( Song of a Nightingale )

Title: Misquoting (Another Lover of Toby Ziegler)
WC: 2059
Characters: Toby/Ellie, Ellie, Toby/Sam, UFC (briefly)
Rating: Pg-13
Summary: on Thursday nights, when she is not there, she can hear the whispers
Notes: There's so much I want to say about this fic, about how it all ties together, losing the baby (implied), the drowning, the need of Toby as almost a drug, the final surfacing for air and finding some redemption in it, but I couldn't say it right, I don't think. So I'll just leave you with it. Prompts for it were: Ellie, underwater. Toby/Ellie, sidewalk (um, didn't really do this part), friends with benefits. Oh, um, spoilers for Otis as well? Totally unintentional. And I hope it still works. The whole thing is really dialog happy, and I don't know if I like that. And it assumes that Toby was seeing multiple people at the same time. Which I think works, if it's done right. Because he's ok with being what he is to different people. With loving them in separate ways. Alright, done rambling. All yours now. Feedback/Concrit is love.

( Misquoting (Another Lover of Toby Ziegler) )

Title: Whispers (He's Not Mine)
WC: 1369
Characters: Juno, Vanessa, OMC (Juno/Vanessa's son). A bit of Bleeker.

Title: From Loss
WC: 925
Characters: Toby/Ellie
Rating: PG
Summary: His voice is always unassuming, never judging. He's guarded, but in a different way than most.
Notes: Because on her list of things Em said she wanted more of in Fandom, she put for Atticus to write more T/E. :)

( From Loss )

Title: Dresden
WC: 613
Characters: Don and Charlie
Rating: PG-13 (for thematics)
Summary: It hardly seems fair that the power to end the world lies in the hands of mathematicians
Notes: I have no idea how something like this would actually work, just merely speculation. The title is taken from a famous town in Germany that Allied forces firebombed, destroying the down and killing thousands.

( Dresden )

Title: Belief in Free Love
WC: 1088
Characters: Toby/Sam/Josh references to Huck, Molly, and Andy
Rating: R
Summary: There is nothing to say as they move, three of them together as one person
Notes: right. Don't read if gay sex isn't your thing. Also, slight bondage. The title is taken (loosely) from a line from the musical Huck performs in. Post-series. Set when the twins are around 13.

Title: When My Father Was A Youngling
WC: 1200
Characters: Molly, Toby, references to Huck and Andrea
Rating: Pgish?
Notes: inspired by my crack-chat with Em. A word is still a word. A word is significant. A random jumble of twenty-six characters. Molly walks through memories with her father and tries to understand. Some excerpts from an old journal entry on my father taken and used.
