Delightfully Useless

The new episode of Doctor Who has entirely fried my brain. I am therefore joining the crossovers100 challenge with a claim of Three-era Who.

(Because, yeah, deciding to write 100 crossovers featuring the same fandom is so much more sensible than joining Death By Aspirin, which was my first inclination. *eyeroll* Hey, I'm shy, okay?)

Sorry to kind of asplode your friend pages, but tables apparently don't like being behind cuts any better than polls do...

Okay, I have two things here I'm combining into a single post. First is a meme, ganked from clocketpatch:

If there are one or more people on your friends list who make your world a better place just because they exist, and who you would not have met (in real life or not) without the Internet, then post this same sentence in your journal.

I've been meaning to do this one for a long time - since I got my LJ, in fact - but I just never got around to it before. And now I'm sort of glad I didn't, because I've met so many more awesome people here since joining LJ! *hugs you all*

The second thing is a hyper-fangirl announcement: I FOUND A WORKING LINK TO THE SUNNY DAY AFFAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Which, if you have not heard of it, is the best UNCLE fluff piece ever written. Seriously. It's by Loretta Ross aka Lorlie on FFnet (whose whole File 40 page is well worth checking out), gen, a lovely UNCLE/Sesame Street crossover. (It's also the source of my favorite, and most-quoted, fanfic quote ever: "When he smiled, he smiled with his whole soul, and the light of it was like sunshine. A person could get addicted to a smile like that.")

Many, many thanks to togsos for pointing me to the linky!!!! *happy dance* *handstands* *random happy singing* *goes to read for the second time in fifteen minutes*

Okay, it seems 600 words is a bit long for a dw100  post - it is "dw100", after all - so at the mod's request, I'm shifting the edited version of "Well, That's Just Ducky" over here.

Once again, many thanks to primsong  for pointing out the plot-hole that this version fixed!

Title: Well, That's Just Ducky
Summary: Three meets Ducky in L-Space. And they save MarySue!me's life.
Notes: Gen, 600 words, fluffity pointless fluff. ;-)

( Clicky to read... )

Okay... this one is basically pointless. Challenge word #4 was "crossover"; what I actually wound up doing is more of a Doctor Who/NCIS/Mary Sue MacGuffin, frankly. (Or in English: "Ow, I can't write with this headache, I just want to be the filling in a Three-and-Ducky sandwich right now.")

Being me, it's extremely G-rated. Just a nice little piece of unabashed cuddlefluff - which is actually a first for me, I normally get quite flustered writing cuddlefluff. Maybe primsong 's finally rubbing off on me...

Oh, and I apologize for the title. ;-)

Title: Well, That's Just Ducky
Summary: ...Summary? Um... Three, Ducky, and MarySue!me in L-Space...
Notes: Gen, 550 words. Fluffity pointless fluff!

First off: I haz big news! Four years, four months and three days ago (yes, I counted), my family moved house. Since then, we've been doing a major remodel on the old house and trying to sell it - not exactly at the same time. My mother and I did most of the work: plumbing, electrical, carpeting, drywall, flooring, cabinets, everything but roofing (which I refuse to learn, being acrophobic.) I even wrote a Doctor Who ficlet, Liberation, inspired by the subject.

Anyway. Today - today, right now, as I type - is the closing on the old house! Going, going, gone!!! Out of my hair! No more flitting around like an UNCLE agent in miniature, never knowing what will go wrong next or where I'll spend the night; no more camping without running water or a working stove! (Granted, these experiences do help me get inside the boys' heads when I'm writing, but I'd just as lief not have any more for a while, y'know?)

So, in celebration, a plumber!Illya LOL. (You know you're going a little bit crazy when you seriously consider dreaming up a scenario where Illya takes a long-term undercover assignment as a handyman just so you can turn around all the crazy things that happen to you and happen them to him. No, I didn't do it.)

I must be the only person on illyushadarling 's flist who, when confronted with this particular Illya-costume from The Off-Broadway Affair, saw something besides Baby Ducky. (I absolutely love this costume... but that's a bit beside the point, isn't it?)

If you don't get the caption, there's an explanation below the LOL.



Okay. If you didn't get it: it's a MacGyver joke. Mac occasionally goes undercover as a computer geek named Dexter Fillmore; the disguise consists of scruffy clothes, thick glasses, and really seriously good, Illya!Nexor level, acting. This is Mac (in Dexter's clothes, but not in character); this is Dexter.

And if you haven't seen MacGyver, you should.

"Start with nothing, take it away..." Sorry, wrong ep. ;-)

Start with Lothi's "Baby Ducky" pic (in the comments here), add one "Deadly Toys Affair" screencap just begging for a really tight crop, combine in the brain of a zoned-out and slightly hyper curuchamion, and stand back. Cross-fandom LOLs are potentially explosive.

(Y'all do know you can click through for a larger image, right? Just checking. *looks innocent*)

ETA: Now you don't have to! happy grin

Just a quick ficrec here, as I spent most of my spare time today working on a comment for the mfu_canteen post "Illya as Cutter?", which I sort of inspired with a comment on tgabrielle 's Summit Five Affair review.

Anyway. The rec: Weapon K by C Wehst on File 40. Slight X-Men crossover; I'd have written this fic myself if it didn't already exist. Summary: Ever wonder what happens to all of Illya's scars?
