Yearly WIP Post

[redfiona99]

Version 2 of the Modern AU - "Plus it had to be better than the garden centre." - It's 10419 words long and I'm about half way through the second section of 4. Help!

Version 1 of the Modern AU which is stuck - "Alex knew how this was going to go - he'd get bounded up to by random relative number thirty-four and the first words out of his cousin's mouth would be, 'you look just like your father'."




Delayed lgbtfest fic, stuck on Xander's section - "'I know I said I wouldn't do anything, but I'm offended that they've sent you.'"

Another delayed lgbtfest fic - "Because what they had done was wrong, and Ethan couldn't see it, more than that, refused to even try to see it."

The infamously unfinished Giles/Ethan fic - "Because if we don't, he'll burn the place down and we've got nowhere else to kip." Part of the problem is I know what comes next, but I know I'm not a good enough writer to write it.




lgbtfest fic about the Corsair, which has mutated into a 'the Corsair acting as the Doctor's mentor while growing up' fic - "The Corsair wasn't anywhere near as old as the Hermit, that gentle old soul who'd taught the Doctor so much, he was barely a hundred years older than the Doctor."

Before The Impossible Planet - "The trouble only started when they reached Krop Tor."

EleventyandtheMaster - "And she'll help him tell Rory; although he thinks Rory will be much easier to explain this to, Rory asks fewer questions." In need of an ending.

Eleventy/River fic - "And it wouldn't be her usual flirty cry of spoilers." Where I finally have the DVDs to rewatch, I just need to find time for it.




Teddy Lupin was a dangerous young man - "His hair was thinning, his waist was thickening and he was refusing to accept that what his children were listening to was music."

Pictures of You (don't worry, it's getting re-titled) - "Albus's portrait was apparently doing all the travelling Albus hadn't managed to do in his life, and was last seen sneaking through the galleries of the Uffizi in Florence." Stuck.




RDJ-verse:

When Chambermaids were more amenable - "If it was so important, he should have looked after it better." - Needs a middle. Or rather, I need to get Holmes and Adler from a wardrobe into a bed.

Sherlock:

Avoidance - "She'd suggested that he try to write again, but he hadn't been able to write anything, not even a general "still alive" blogpost, since." Post-Reichenbach Falls fic, which is stuck until I can watch the episode again. But hey, I suddenly have free time :)

lgbtfest fic - "Both Irene Adler and Irene Adler, the whip hand, are interested in Sherlock Holmes."

Mycroft's Schooldays - slightly stuck - "He's still not entirely chosen what he will do, but he thinks government work might be best, because there must be a way to run the government more efficiently."

Sherlock Holmes (books)

Delayed lgbtfest fic - "I have, of course, Holmes's permission to set this down." Need to do some research.




The perpetually stuck and thoroughly Jossed Pepper/Coulson fic - "She'd expected a few rows about it, it had happened often enough with pre-even-dating-Tony boyfriends, but it had never happened, nor had Phil tried to out-anything Tony, he'd just been himself and that was refreshing." Which may have unstuck itself while I've been putting this together, hallelujah!

Delayed lgbtfest fic for the glorious prompt of 'Iron Man (movie), Tony Stark, "What do you mean Proposition 8 passed?!"' - "Anyway, what's the point in being Tony Stark if I can't do the things I want to do."

Thor fic - "It was a harsh thing to say aloud, but truth was truth, there was no changing it." Stuck.




Being Human:

The fic which is going to need one heck of a frontice piece - "For one moment it looked like Mitchell was going to put himself out of his own misery." In need of an ending, which wraps things up satisfactorily. All the endings I come up with aren't and don't.

The Champions:

Untitled Champions fic - "In another situation, she would have laughed." I really need to rewatch the series.

Chuck:

The post-series Chuck/Sarah/Bryce AU - "He never quite gets around to moving out." - Which has recently unstuck itself. It's not going to be finished any time soon, but at least I know now how it's going to get to the ending.

The Expendables:

Slowly moving towards completion - "Barney tried to be sympathetic."

GI Joe:

Delayed lgbtfest fic - "Duke would have preferred it if he could have spoken to Heavy Duty off-base, but Heavy Duty has a different idea of what "off-duty" meant than the rest of them."

Hamlet:

Delayed lgbtfest fic - "Beauty as reason, I can understand that." - slowly coming along.

Heinz Mayonaise advert:

"Artie looked like the epitome of stress, red-rimmed eyes, hair sticking up at all angles and un-ironed shirt." I think I might finally have solved one of the problems.

The Hobbit:

Castle AU - "It involved standing on a discarded brick, but he could see over it, to the back of the warehouse." - Or the comment_fic which ate my brain. The prompt was "Thorin Oakinshield + Bilbo Baggins, Castle AU -- Thorin's the cop and Bilbo's the writer using him for inspiration)" and it's grown exponentially. It's already 2915 words, and has only just started the second of the three sections.

It Ain't Half Hot Mum

This Time Next Year, We'll Be Playing At The Palladium - "The weather had been particularly grotty though, the sort of dull, continual London drizzle that he'd missed in Deollaly and been sick of the minute he'd got home, and it hadn't got any better today." See also, coming along, slowly.

James Bond:

The Die Another Day fic- "He dreamt that night, which was unusual." Oh hell, I may need to watch the film again.

Last Of The Summer Wine:

Delayed lgbtfest fic - "Well you did, but to your mates, and it was all done in a sort of elbow-based mee-mawing."

The Mummy:

Delayed lgbtfest fic - "It's just they're so ... frustrating." Help I'm going to end up rewatching Tomb of the Dragon Emperor.

The Shadow Line:

Rattalack fic - "Instead he went to night school, did his BTEC in accountancy, and learned what all the long bloody financial words meant." Not sure how to write the last part.

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy

The unspeakably long one - "The German essay was not completed that afternoon." Slowly (very slowly) coming along.





Delayed lgbtfest fic - "Jack had always been easy going."

Delayed pornbattle fic - "Jack had been round the universe a few times, and he can think of a few ways round the problem." - apparently the trick to avoiding writing Owen is writing it from a tightly-tied-to-Captain-Jack third person.




Swings_and_Roundabouts, or that damn first person Jindrak/Orton fic, which has also unstuck itself slightly. Or rather, has moved forward to get stuck at a new point. Which is progress, I guess. - "I never did find out where Randy found this chick, because she was a freak."

CrimsonMorgan - "He couldn't afford to have Crimson injured, he needed him to keep hold of the tag team belts." - Stuck because it's refusing to fit into the form I originally intended to give it, so I'm having to change my original masterplan. And I'm not sure how to segue between the second and third sections.

Stuck lgbtfest fic - "Which was typical ODB."

Opera's Birthday fic - "There were a thousand thoughts flying through Chris's head, mostly managing to shout down his first reaction of 'finally'."

The perpetually stuck BG James + Billy Gunn fic - "Which was good, he was too old to be talking to his Dad about things like this." Which might at least have gained a title.

50 Kinky Ways fic:

28. Dominant - Randy/Maryse - "But she doesn’t take it out on him, although he’d let her, he’d eat it up because she’d be the one flogging him." Which might finally be taking shape.

6. Restraints - Randy/Stacy - "Randy made his way up her calves, wonderful calves, dancer's calves." on the other hand is hella stuck.

13. Bloodplay - Randy/Anderson - "It was a useful place, the scars didn't show too much and every time Anderson sweat for a couple of days, it would sting and remind him of this." Which will be great fun when it is done. But that requires an ending and fixing some tense issues.




Becoming Part 4, which is finished, I'm just waiting to finish part 5 before I post it. - "It had been easy enough to escape from the police and the FBI."

Becoming Part 5, which is stuck on a conversation that Hank and Mystique have to have and are just refusing to have. - "Hank climbed over walls and ran along buildings, tricky for a human but not for her."

A delayed lgbtfest fic - "A few of the others had said 'thanks, but no thanks', and one, Dr. Celia Reyes, had said that when it all went wrong and they needed a medic, they should call her."

The Gambit between Wolverine Origins and X-2 fic - "'Course that involved him coming back, and she could tell by his tone that he thought that had the same odds as a royal flush coming up." - slightly stuck

Beast/Storm fic - "Professor Xavier said it was a kind gesture, but it's as pragmatic as it is altruistic." - Jossed and horrendously stuck.
