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?

I most likely am not going to be doing any exchanges after Yuletide until shipswap, if that comes back, so I decided to pick up a card and try for a line. (I think I'll also do Trope Bingo, but that'll be it, in terms of bingo challenges. And maybe I'll do Case Story, if that comes back as well.)

While I was trying to figure out my eleventyfest fic, I came up with this for fic_promptly and ladiesbingo. (But the eleventyfest fic is done! Don't look at me.)

Breaking a promise to myself to not get any bingo cards this year except for origfic_bingo and kink_bingo (which is next week, btw).

And signups started today! They're ongoing until January 14 of next year. :D Go here: ladiesbingo!

( card! big! )

I'm figuring out a way to promote this, and I really want to promote it on Doctor Who comms, especially on LJ (because there are more of them there). At worse, I'll end up promoting it in my own edition of who_daily. But I do hope to promote it elsewhere.

As for fic plans: I think I'll end up doing Burn Notice and original!fic, at the very least. And maybe Rizzoli & Isles, which seems to be a seasonal thing with me, ha. Not sure about other fandoms, because I keep quietly dropping them. And no, I won't be aiming for a blackout--just at least a minimal bingo. But with this bingo, a blackout is tempting, since I'm excited about most of my card. Hmmm.
