I will try and make a post again soon, but am now recovering from parental visit (due to me and the ME/CFS, not any fault of said parents). Yesterday, though, I got lucky at the BNA while searching for a newly-discovered address for an ancestor's siblings and found him accidentally involved in a plot to steal a painting by Petrus van Schendel. (London ancestors are v hard to find, especially when they have common names, but the joy of London is that every so often your relatives are briefly entangled with someone or something famous).

Anyway, the fraud was discovered, I was rewarded by a description of two rooms in a relative's house (29 St Mary-at-hill) and I thought some of you might enjoy the resulting magistrate's hearings:

Inspiration from 'Processed' Canon

[personal profile] g_uava posting in [community profile] fan_writers
How inspired are you to write new fic if someone else has picked out and organised the parts of canon most interesting to you? Think of it as if a fellow fan has 'processed' the raw ingredient of canon for the creation of creative works. Examples of 'processed' canon include meta/fan analyses, screencaps, timelines, supercuts and detailed guides locating the appearances of certain characters or important events.

Choose two characters, preferably two that know each other in canon. They are together in a private place, such as walking down a forest path, watching TV in a room and no one else is within hearing range, or driving somewhere in a car. One of them takes the opportunity to talk to the other about something private. It could be good (e.g., they want to tell them a good secret like they just bought an engagement ring; they want to compliment the other; they want to share good gossip about someone else) or it could be bad (e.g., they want to chastise them about something bad they did; they want to share bad gossip about someone else) or even neutral (e.g. they want to talk to them about something that's troubling them).

Write that. Bonus points for not choosing the easiest-to-write conversation.

October Theme + Request Post

thisbluespirit: (dw - two)
[personal profile] thisbluespirit posting in [community profile] tardis_library
Recs of any sort may be posted at any time, but in addition we have monthly themes. [community profile] tardis_library's theme for September is now closed, and here is our new theme for October:


Second Doctor // Fall

"If we'd have fallen into the Master's trap, we would have become fiction."


This month is for celebrating the Second Doctor's era and your favourite work involving anything and anyone from it! You can also rec works that involve the theme of fall in any way - from the season, to pitfalls, pratfalls, falls from grace, pride going before a fall, falling into a trap, etc. etc. Or, as ever, both combined!

Post your recs to the community in the normal way any time from now until midnight on 31st October 2025 in your timezone. (See Info & Guidelines for posting template and instructions). Recs posted for monthly themes have their own tag with banners at the end of the year for reccers who posted a rec for 6 or more of each year's themes.

When making your post, add the tag "other: monthly theme". (The mods can take care of any other needed tags if you prefer, but a challenge/theme tag could easily be missed.)



Request List
Anyone may also request any specific recs they'd like to see. (e.g. "Fourth Doctor fic, not on Teaspoon," "Cheerful Bill Potts artwork," "Leela vid," "recent Ten/Rose," etc.) If you are only interested in one medium (fic/vid/art etc/), don't forget to specify.

Current requests:
* Classic Who fanvids, any Doctor/TARDIS team (music, no/minimal audio quotes preferred), especially out there on tumblr/YT - [personal profile] thisbluespirit
* Twelfth Doctor h/c that's not on AO3 (any pairing or gen) - [personal profile] ruuger
* Rose/Nine fic, any genre, anywhere - anon
* Jack/Esther fic (Torchwood) - [personal profile] chamilet
* Babyfic and/or de-age fic, any era/any team - [personal profile] romanajo123
* Fanworks in more unusual media (not Art, Fic, or Vids) - [personal profile] lurking_latinist
* Gen fic featuring the Doctor's scarf any era - [personal profile] liadt
* fic set after Planet of Giants that focus on the events of that story - [personal profile] scifirenegade


Make your requests in the comments here to be added to the list. (Anon commenting is on.) If you make a rec that fills any of these requests, please add the "other: request" tag to your entry so it can be found easily.)


Any other questions? Ask here or at the Info & Guidelines post, or PM the mod.

Challenge 276:
MOONLIT KISSES
A meeting with a secret lover? A romantic date night? Or maybe it’s just been a long day, or a long week, and all our heroes have the energy for is a single exhausted kiss in the dark.

Kissing under the moonlight can be the perfect end to a lovely date: a nice dinner or a boat ride or a walk through the garden, ending under a beautiful full moon. But the moon can also be an unwanted spotlight on a rendezvous the people involved would rather keep in the dark – a forbidden relationship, a politically dangerous romance, or just a relationship everyone involved wants to keep private.

Write a story about moonlit kisses.

BONUS GOAL: “Did you hear something?”

If your submission features this line, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!


Challenge ends Monday, October 6 at 9:00PM EST.
• Post submissions as new entries using the template in the profile
• Tag this week's entries as: [#] submission, 276 – moonlit kisses
• If you have questions about this challenge, please ask them here
