LadyFest '10 recs, part 2, pages 11-20

Sherlock Holmes (recent film), Mary and Mrs. Hudson (and Gladstone), Damnation, PG by indiana_j in which Holmes and Watson get themselves in a pickle and Mary and Mrs. Hudson show themselves more than equal to the task of getting them out. I love this because everyone is so in character for the films.

House, Cuddy, To Thine Own Self Be True, G by 25lively Origin fic for Cuddy.

Star Trek XI, Winona Kirk, And Her Ruins, PG by sinuous_curve Winona Kirk keeping on keeping on despite people's best efforts to be "helpful".

Star Trek: Voyager, Seven of Nine, I Like Your Body When It's With My Body, PG by gabby_silang Seven of Nine becoming human, with a great sense of dislocation and loss.

Music Meme - Day 19 - A Song From Your Favourite Album

Well, we've already had 'No Surface, All Feeling', I'm going to go with Removables

Watch on YouTube

Now, this is generally held to be the worst song on the album.

Yeah, other albums wish they had songs this good to be their worst.

( The other days )

Meant to post this yesterday

chronometric's weekly challenges help keep me sane when I have to go into work on Sundays.

Title: Communications Breakdown
Fandom: Star Trek XI
Characters: Uhura
Disclaimer: Not mine. The Who and Cool Hand Luke also don't have anything to do with me.
Chronometric theme: Failure
Rating: G
Summary: What we have here is a failure to communicate.

( The universal translator was broken and Uhura, plus two engineers and half the Comms crew on the ship were trying to fix it. )

End Notes: Uhura's fondness for Swahili is taken from the Original Series, and M'Ress is from the animated series, although she gets a promotion between this and then.
