Ha, turns out you can write even when you're a wiped-out zombie. Maybe it lowered my inhibitions or something. And hey, if you're in due South/C6D, do sign up for the drabble tag at

dsc6dsnippets, people! It's only 100 words.

Title: Gap

When I count, there are only you and I together
But when I look ahead up the white road
There is always another one walking beside you." --T. S. Eliot

Summary: Bob counts the days.
Notes: For the drabble tag at

dsc6dsnippets. Sorry about the angst, but it kind of flowed from the prompt.

Title: Bones

Rating: PG-13 (references to canonical character death)

Title: Tying-off
Fandom: due South

Title: Strings of Hair, Pegs of Bone
Fandom: due South
Characters: Fraser, Vecchio (implied Fraser/Victoria)
Rating: PG-13 for creepy folktales
Length: 370 words
Summary: Fraser tells stories in the night.
Notes: Set pre-Victoria's Secret. This was meant to be for the

dsc6dsnippets challenge, inspired by "harp" and "bark", but alas, it grew too long and I couldn't trim it down. And yes, I know, I'm obsessed with the Child ballads.

Title: Bonds
Fandom: due South
Pairing: Bob Fraser/Ellen Stern, but mostly Ellen gen.
Rating: PG
Length: 300 words
Prompt: fool
Summary: Bob had fallen asleep, but Ellen lay awake, listening to the snowstorm outside that had made Bob seek shelter with her.
Notes: I wish we'd gotten to see Ellen on screen. Or hmmm, I suppose what I really want is a whole TV series about Fraser family backstory. *g*

Title: Pattern
Fandom: due South
Pairing: Fraser/Kowalski
Rating: R
Length: 300

Title: Anachronism
Fandom: due South/Jurassic Park crossover
Characters: Fraser and Kowalski and velociraptors (gen)
Rating: G
Prompt: response
Length: 286 words
Summary: "Wait, they have feathers?" Ray said, his voice low. "They didn't have feathers in the movie."
Notes: Written for

dsc6dsnippets. Back during the alphabet challenge in December,

lamentables gave the alternate prompt "velociraptors" for the letter "v", and I didn't have time to write something for it back then, but apparently it's stuck in my head.

If velociraptors appeal to you, I recommend Up Close and Personal, by

Sheila_Snow. It is basically 40,000 words of platonic Alan Grant/velociraptor kidfic, and it is awesome. No, I am not kidding (and it's not crackfic, either).

Okay, so, I wrote a science fiction Fraser/Thatcher card for

sage! Or not a card, exactly--more a computer printout. This was probably the easiest C6DVD card I ever made, because as soon as

sage suggested a space AU, this popped into my mind, and it was so much fun to write. It turned out strangely retro, because to make it clear what the message was, I wrote it as a sort of command-line interface, which is not how most people read their email these days (although I used Pine on Unix, which does have this kind of interface, to read email until about 2008).

Er, this is possibly the geekiest thing I have ever done.

A while ago I posted a snippet with the due South pilot told in the style of Tolkien's Silmarillion. And now I have translated it to Quenya. Yes, I actually spent a summer about ten years ago learning Quenya, although I had to look up most of the vocabulary and grammar again to do this. Thanks to fellow geek

bghost for taking a look at the translation!

Hmm, I wonder why there is no fic in Quenya on the AO3 already? I sent a support request asking them to add it as a language so I could list this as a translation, which they said they'd do. But I'd have expected someone who actually writes in Tolkien fandom to have done it before this. Also, I'm totally going to podfic this just so that the audiofic archive can have a tag for Quenya. *g*

Title: Past
Fandom: due South
Pairing: Fraser/Kowalski, Kowalski/OFC, Fraser/OFC
Rating: G
Length: 300 words
Summary: Had he really been that person?
Notes: La la la, Yuletide procrastination. For the

dsc6dsnippets prompt "echo". If you're feeling particularly OTP-y, you might want to avoid this one.

( Ray was rifling through the mail--phone bill, holiday card from Laura's sister, flyer from some new pizza place--when he saw it. )

Title: Comfort
Characters: Stella Kowalski, Barbara Kowalski
Rating: G
Length: 300 words
Prompt: laundry
Summary: Stella gets a phone call after "Strange Bedfellows."
Notes: Just a quick little Sunday-night snippet. I couldn't recall any fic about Stella and Barbara, even though they're canonically close, so I had to write one...

Title: Divide
Characters: Ray Vecchio, Victoria Metcalf
Rating: PG-13
Length: 209 words
Prompt: flag
Summary: Ray sees Victoria in Vegas.
Notes: This theme seems to be going around, and of course there's the classic take on it, too. So here's my version. (Yes, yes, I know, I should be working on my Midsummer fic.)

Title: Real
Pairing: Frannie/Elaine
Rating: PG
Length: 300 words
Prompt: lord, lady, castle

Title: Snow
Pairing: Fraser/Victoria
Rating: PG-13
Length: 100 words
Summary: "Is it snowing out?"
Notes: This fits the photo prompt at

dsc6dsnippets, but really it was prompted by tonight's rewatch of Victoria's Secret. Aaaaah, it's tough to watch alone. Not that I can really watch it with anyone else IRL, though, because I'm not sure I could stand to watch it with someone who's not fannish.

Pairings: Fraser/Kowalski, Bob/Buck/Caroline
Rating: G
Length: 280 words
Prompt: "You can’t live your life in the baby seat."
Summary: Benton speaks up about his relationship to Ray.
Notes: For

dsc6dsnippets. The use of the prompt is a bit oblique, but I hope it's all right! It made sense in my head, anyway.
