Beyond the Roundels

As I mentioned the other day, no_true_pair posted the prompts for this round, and I'll share mine under the cut, because there are some fun ones. Currently feeling not great yet again, but who knows? Writing could happen before the posting begins in September.

(If you want to sign up, there's still plenty of time - just don't look at the prompt post first. They're very laid back.)


The prompt post is here.

The Crossover set generated some fun ones:

Crossover List:
1. Sister Boniface (Sister Boniface Mysteries)
2. Charley Pollard (DW)
3. Cassandra Cillian (The Libs)
4. Death (Discworld)
5. Sandra Pullman (New Tricks)
6. Madeline Maxwell (Chronicles of St Mary's)
7. Mona Wu (LoT)
8. Seventh Doctor (DW)

September Three - Charley & Seventh Doctor - "just what I needed"
September Four - Death & Mona - it's dark and there's only one flashlight
September Six - Charley & Mona - too many cupcakes
September Seven - Death & Sandra Pullman are temporary neighbors
September Eight - Max & Seventh Doctor - with the title "dreams"
September Nine - Charley & Max - "what's that noise?"
September Eleven - Cassandra & Seventh Doctor - stargazing
September Twelve - Death & Max with the title "subdivisions"
September Fifteen - Mona & Seventh Doctor - with the title " biggest fan"
September Sixteen - Sandra & Max go on a lakeside picnic
September Seventeen - Cassandra & Death - seasons change
September Nineteen - Charley & Death - long weekend
September Twenty-two - Max & Mona - it was a good idea on paper
September Twenty-three - Death & Seventh Doctor - when it rains it pours
September Twenty-four - Cassandra & Max "what is that thing?"

I don't know which of these I might be able to write (although I really must try and do 17, because Cassandra and Death has to happen). I do not think I'm up to Death and Sandra being temporary neighbours, but it did make me laugh a lot. And clearly someone or something had Mona Wu's measure - hers comprise being someone's biggest fan, having too many cupcakes and Legends-typical shenanigans implied.


I also put in a Doctor Who list, because DW is my old reliable of fandoms:

Doctor Who list:
1. Fifteenth Doctor
2. Ruby Sunday
3. Clara Oswald
4. The Brigadier
5. Thirteenth Doctor
6. Bill Potts
7. Kate Lethbridge-Stewart
8. Tenth Doctor

I particularly liked:

September Seven - the Brigadier & Thirteen are temporary neighbors
September Ten - did Fifteen & Kate have the same dream?
September Eleven - Clara & Ten - stargazing
September Twelve - the Brigadier & Bill with the title "subdivisions"
September Thirteen - Fifteen & Thirteen get in a ridiculous argument about [x]
September Twenty - Thirteen & Kate - ignore previous instructions
September Twenty-one - Fifteen & Ruby "what did you say?"
September Twenty-three - the Brigadier & Ten - when it rains it pours
September Twenty-five - Fifteen & the Brigadier - with the title "old emotions"

But overall these turned out well. The rainbowfic set less so, but that was my fault, because I could not decide who to put in it, but the list I used was:

Origfic list:
1. Viyony Eseray
2. Leion Valerno
3. Iyana Valerno (Leion's mother)
4. Karpeldis Reohrsyn (Viyony's father)
5. Atino Barra
6. Kadia Barra
7. Osmer Nivyrn
8. Tannis Kellen

Most of these worked out very unhelpfully, although with some possibilities and one unexpected but workable little thread that I already have some scribbled words on, comprising

September Nineteen - Leion & Reohr - long weekend
September Twenty-one - Viyony & Leion - "what did you say?"
September Twenty-five - Viyony & Reohr with the title "old emotions"


Has anyone else signed up? Did you get some fun ones?
