Title: Doctor Melody Williams | AO3 | Teaspoon
Author: merryghoul
Wordcount: 1672
Rating: General Audiences
Characters: River Song, Amy Pond
Contains: fictional, canonical hallucinogenic drugs
Prompts: ladiesbingo: Thank God it's Friday... Again: Time Loops | hc_bingo: hallucinations | fic_promptly
Notes: I've always wanted to toy with the idea of "Melody Williams, schoolteacher" since "A Good Man Goes to War." This fic, which plays with a Groundhog Day-style time loop, is inspired by Signs from The Diary of River Song. (But you don't need to listen to any part of The Diary of River Song to understand this.) also I was not expecting to write ~1700 words about a time loop, but oh well
Summary: Doctor Melody Williams: professor by day, adventurer by night. Or is that the other way around?

Characters: Mels Zucker, Amy Pond, Jack Harkness, Alex Hopkins
Prompt: family
Medium: fic
Wordcount: 1083
Rating: Teen
Warnings: no standard warnings apply; fic does contain creature death and canonical thoughts of killing a character
Summary: Mels would be the one to protect her mother from a wolf.

For hc_bingo as well as onlyonebed (just not in time for the latter's ficathon). Does contain a creature from the Marvel Comics run of Doctor Who comics, but it's not necessary to read those comics to understand the creature.

I did Google up the British education system and Welsh outdoor camps for some of this fic, but please tell me if I goofed up on anything.

Guise, I accidentally a fic while I'm supposed to be working on Ship Swap. Oops?

Title: My Name Is Not Fiona Glenanne | AO3
Fandom: Burn Notice/Press Gang
Wordcount: 1737
Rating: Teen
Character(s): Fiona, Carlos, Andrew Strong, Sam Black
Pairing(s): Fiona/Carlos
Notes: For Burn Notice, this story is set after Strong breaks into Fiona's house in "Exit Plan" (705) and goes AU after that moment for Fiona, Carlos, and Strong.

For Press Gang, this is set well after Sam left the Junior Gazette. Sam is roughly the same age as Fiona here.

This fic is for the April 2015 amnesty crossover challenge at HC Bingo; from my card, I used the prompts "purgatory" and "atonement." It's also for the Fic Promptly prompt Burn Notice/Press Gang, Sam Black, she moved to Miami to work on a magazine, not get arrested for another woman's crimes.
Summary: Sam Black is arrested for a crime Fiona's set up for. Only Fiona can free her.

Notes: This story is a fork-in-the-road apocafic, set during and after the episode "Center of the Storm," where there was a canonical hurricane threatening Miami. There's a mention of a past violent incident from the episode "Psychological Warfare." But no canon knowledge is needed to read this fic at all.
Summary: Michael and his friends rebuild their lives after a hurricane and a massive flood hits Miami.

I modified the table, by the way. I don't like the background and I don't like the white text. (Also, lj-cut doesn't work on Dreamwidth.)
