We Can't Rewind, We've Gone Too Far

Maybe if there is productive activity in one area I will actually go and listen to my microcontrollers lectures.

Three Sentence Ficathon is now at a new post, so if you were thinking "Oh god 50 pages of comments" now you can start there. It's fine, you don't need to read everything!

That said, these are mostly from the previous post.

( Marvel (2) )

( Narnia )

( Hamlet )

( The Little Mermaid (Hans Christian Andersen) )

( Fin-de-Siecle RPF )

( Calvin and Hobbes )

( Harry Potter )

( Cordelia (Movie Poster 2020) )

Taking a break from scrolling through to post about Three Sentence Ficathon!

I am having so much fun again. (Possibly I should be thinking about microcontrollers instead, but whatever.) Fun is what I need in writing right now, and I hoped this would help, and it really really has.

So actually the first of these is not for this Three Sentence Ficathon, it's for the one at be_compromised which started Friday and is still open if you want MCU specifically and Clint&/Natasha more specifically.

( MCU )

And for rthstewart's, from the last couple days:

( The Old Guard (2) )

( Calvin and Hobbes )

( Harry Potter )

( Narnia )

All of that was just yesterday. Today so far:

( Original Horror )

( Much Ado About Nothing )

( Greek Myth )

( The Addams Family crossover )

So much fun.

A lot of these are drabbles or longer and will go up on AO3 eventually.

More from Three Sentence Ficathon!

( Hamlet )

( Agent Carter (2) )

( Good Omens )

( Original Science Fiction )

The Hamlet drabble above and the Agent Carter drabble from last post are now on AO3.

Okay, so my Yuletide presents were The Adventure of the Great Heart by donutsweeper and The Red-Furred League by Rosencrantz (Great Mouse Detective) and The First Goblin Market by Neshnyt_Jackalsson and Hellspawn by sweetcarolanne and Tantalus by El Staplador (Goblin Market) and yes, I got five gifts and they are all wonderful and I am ridiculously lucky.

And I wrote:

Title: From the Presence of the Sun for kitsunealyc
Author: Violsva
Fandom: Midsummer Night's Dream, Greek Mythology
Rating: M
Warnings/Enticements: Infidelity, Fairies
Word Count: 1827
Summary: They ring the world, and decide their politics and goals behind the lesser shorter lives of men, and interfere when it suits them, and laugh at rules, and make their own; and every act of theirs is known by its reflection in the lives of those they scorn and taunt and swive.

And

Title: Come Through Stone Walls for breathedout
Author: Violsva
Fandom: Carmilla (the book)
Rating: E
Warnings/Enticements: This is actually just 1800 words of slightly creepy lesbian porn
Word Count: 1806
Summary: I saw, or fancied I saw, the room and its furniture just as I had seen it last, except that it was very dark, and I saw something moving round the foot of the bed, which at first I could not accurately distinguish.

And drabbles in The Circle of Magic, Goblin Market, Pride (Steph + Joe), Othello, Pride again (Cliff), and Carmilla (the show).

And also I've been writing drabbles all month - Carmilla (Laura and LaFontaine), Carmilla (The Dean), and BBC Sherlock, but specifically verymorstan's threesome semi-AU.

Wow, that was a lot of links.

William Shakespeare

Th’ expense of spirit in a waste of shame
Is lust in action; and till action, lust
Is perjured, murd’rous, bloody, full of blame,
Savage, extreme, rude, cruel, not to trust,
Enjoyed no sooner but despisèd straight,
Past reason hunted; and no sooner had
Past reason hated as a swallowed bait
On purpose laid to make the taker mad;
Mad in pursuit and in possession so,
Had, having, and in quest to have, extreme;
A bliss in proof and proved, a very woe;
Before, a joy proposed; behind, a dream.
All this the world well knows; yet none knows well
To shun the heaven that leads men to this hell.

Excerpt from Shakespeare's lost play, The Aduentures of Sherlocke Holmes, Prince of Deduction.

Holmes. What's that? It's witchcraft? No, it's simply art,
Not artifice, not magic, just my eyes. I see
What all see, Watson, but I then observe,
I think, I make conclusions. Any man
Could do it, but no other man has tried.

Watson. Not any man, I think. You're marvelous.
I know your methods, but I cannot learn
One half of what you see. I say again
That, if not witchcraft, then you are a god -
Say witchcraft, or make me idolatrous.

Holmes. Blasphemous, either way. But there's no time
To argue details of theology.
I hear a knock; Watson, the game's afoot.
Just sit and take your notebook; you assist
Immeasurably.

Enter the King of Bohemia, masked.

King. Have you got my note?
I must insist this matter be privy
Between us, and no other ear intrude
Upon our counsels.

Watson. I -

Holmes. No, prithee, sit.
The doctor is my closest trusted friend.
No word that I hear shall be barred from him.
Go on.
