Title: Boys Keep Swinging
By:

daasgrrl
Song/Artist: David Bowie
Length: 2.29
Fandom: BBC Sherlock
Characters and/or pairings: Sherlock/John friendship
Warnings/kinks/contents: general silliness
Thanks: to

evila_elf for beta
Notes: For the lovely

dioscureantwins, who suggested this song might make for a fun vid. I hope so!
Summary: Boys will be boys. With guns.

These were already linked from the 2012 round-up post, but I'm also posting them here for completeness.

Title: Drabble/221B collection (8)
Also at: AO3 (link to complete work)
Status: Complete
By:

daasgrrl
Fandom: BBC Sherlock
Characters/Pairings: Sherlock/John (7), Sherlock/Lestrade (1 - Bribery)
Rating: G to R
Word count: 1,321
Warnings/contents: I tend to rate kissing as a G and go up from there, but ymmv.
Notes: I read and voted in the lovely BBC Sherlock Last Drabble Writer Standing challenge, but couldn't bring myself to enter, because I've never been able to write to prompts very reliably. However, I decided to attempt them as a private challenge, and managed to keep up... for an entire three weeks. However, I kept plodding on, and finally finished the last of them on New Year's Eve, a mere five months after the challenge wrapped up *g*. So, the brilliant single-word prompts are from the Last Drabble Writer Standing mod, who originally posted them under

sherlock_mod (I did attempt to contact them before posting; happy to change the credit), and I've used them as titles, but the interpretations are mine.

( Possession - PG-13, 200 words )

( Fraud - R, 100 words )

( Piracy - R, 100 words )

( Conspiracy - G, 100 words )

( Trespass - PG-13, 100 words )

( Bribery - G, 221B )

( Arson - R, 100 words )

( Treason - G, 300 words )

Yes, this is a little weird. It's also the first time I've ever written actor!RPF rather than reality show RPF, and oddly, it does make a difference. If you happen to read this and find there's anything I need to fix or rethink before this goes to the comms, I'd really appreciate it if you let me know *g*

Title: In His Image
By:

daasgrrl
Characters: John Watson, Mike Stamford, Benedict Cumberbatch
Rating: PG for themes
Word count: 3,500
Summary: In which a rather different John Watson returns to London, runs into an old friend, and meets someone new. As usual.
Warnings/contents: general absurdity, dubious RPF elements, crossover, gratuitous meta, so AU it hurts.
Notes: Thanks very much to

evila_elf, beta and to

xanthe, consulting Brit. All remaining errors are tragically mine. This is what happens when you try to embrace canon and fandom from too many angles at once, but I swear to you it all made perfect sense in my head. Set in early 2011, for reasons which shall become apparent. Also, please do note the fictional aspect of the RPF component. Thank you.

( In His Image )

1. I finished Twilight \o/. Thanks for all the "encouragement" (postive and negative, lol) because it kept me going when the going was tough. I'm done, though. I was not even tempted by the preview chapter of whatever the hell the sequel is. Done.

2. karaokegal's awesome Come As You're Not party is on again. I don't know if I can find anything to wear, but hope to see you there!

3. In correspondence regarding the above, she practically dared me to write Twilight fic, which... no. But the Twilight hangover persisted, so I wrote this instead. Sorry.

Title: The Twilight Zone
By: daasgrrl
Pairing: House/Wilson
Rating: crack, AU, PG-13
Word count: 1,400
Beta: Thanks to evila_elf for the read-through.
Summary: Badfic with a twist of lime. No redeeming value whatsoever *g*
Notes: Product of a recent encounter with Twilight combined with karaokegal's evil nature. I realize some people love those books - I'm not judging, 'kay? Spoilers, though, in case that matters. Thanks to my flist for being there ♥

( The Twilight Zone )

I had no intention of writing anything any time soon, but then I made the tactical error of reading nightdog_barks' nanofic, There's A Hole In My Head (Where the Rain Comes In) a couple of days ago and it... followed me home? You know how it is *g* Just a ficlet, unbeta'd, crit very welcome, but I may screen anything substantive if/when I post to the comms (because I compulsively tidy for visitors).

Title: One and One and One is Three
By: daasgrrl
Pairing: gen, Wilson, House
Rating: PG-13
Word count: 1,000
Summary: Things are finally working out for Wilson. Maybe.
Notes: A riff of sorts on nightdog_barks' tiny-yet-disturbing There's A Hole In My Head (Where the Rain Comes In), but essentially stand-alone. Slightly cracky, but it makes sense in my brain. Which is only fitting. Title taken from a Beatles lyric. Thanks as always to my f-list for being there ♥

( One and One and One is Three )

I thought earlier this year that maybe I was done with House fic. Turns out I was wrong. Concrit gratefully accepted, particularly stuff that I can, you know, fix *g*

Title: Through the Looking Glass
By: daasgrrl
Rating: Gen, PG-13
Characters: Daniel Wilson, James Wilson
Word count: 1,900
Beta: Thanks as always to evila_elf for looking it over.
Summary: “Well, it's no use your talking about waking him,” said Tweedledum, “when you're only one of the things in his dream. You know very well you're not real.” - Lewis Carroll, Through the Looking Glass
Notes: Essentially a missing scene from “The Social Contract”. Bizarrely inspired by the discovery of Daniel H. Wilson’s book, How to Survive a Robot Uprising, but not nearly as cracktastic as that might seem to imply *g*

( Through the Looking Glass )

Title: The Penultimate Resolution
By: daasgrrl
Rating: PG-13, House gen, crack
Word count: 2,100
Beta: Thanks very much to blackmare_9 for coming to the rescue and to bironic for an assist. Remaining incomprehensibility is mine.
Summary: It had been five days, nothing was working, and House had become so frustrated that half the hospital had been unwillingly drawn into a high stakes, high-pressure game of Name That Disease.
Spoilers: Takes place after the events of “Birthmarks”, S05x04
Notes: Inspired a comment nightdog_barks made regarding her post-ep to the above episode. I had been so distracted by the H/W that I hadn’t realized it was the perfect opportunity to ‘fix’ something about House that has been bothering me for seasons. Originally intended as a drabble but developed a will of its own. Any resemblances to other fanfic OCs, living or dead, is entirely coincidental - well, as far as it goes *g*.

( The Penultimate Resolution )

What with one thing and another I still haven't actually managed to rewatch any of the last few eps of House, but I suddenly got attacked by this early one morning. I suspect it was probably some kind of weird reflex response to several days spent with a decidedly non-fannish houseguest. Emergency! Write fanfic! Use pen and paper if you have to! (And I did have to *g*)

Therefore the result was short, thoroughly self-indulgent and not all that interesting. I suggest reading

t_eyla's frighteningly accurate post on fic and ficlets (aka Why I Feel Like I'm 'Cheating' When I Post Short Fic) instead.

Title: Miles to Go
By:

daasgrrl
Pairing: H/W friendship
Rating: PG for themes
Word count: 670
Beta:

evila_elf swears she turned the TV down long enough to read it
Summary: And then in the middle of it all there’s a voice, the one he wasn’t expecting, not yet.
Notes: The world may never run out of post-eps to Wilson's Heart. Spoilers, etc.

( Miles to Go )

Title: Second Chances
By:

daasgrrl
Pairing: Monk/Stottlemeyer
Rating: PG
Summary: Missing scene(s) from Mr. Monk and the Bad Girlfriend. Misery loves company. Maybe.
Word count: 2,300
Beta: Thanks very much to

thsfuhqinsux for great suggestions and insight. And for sharing the continuing Monk-love.
Notes: Because it took a random comment from deep in the archives of TWoP to actually make me notice Leland reaching out to Adrian at the end of Mr. Monk Takes Manhattan. The slash glasses obviously hadn’t yet arrived in the mail. Also, I must say Shamrock’s wonderful post-ep to that episode made a hell of a lot more sense after that *g*

( Second Chances )

Title: Inanimation
By: daasgrrl
Pairing: House/Inanimate Objects (not that way)
Rating: G
Word count: 800
Notes: Crack response to karaokegal's Inanimate Objects poll and the brilliant crackfic drabbles Jealousy by karaokegaland Envy by drunken_hedghog. Written in 40 minutes, for completely inexplicable reasons.

INANIMATION

It was chaos. Everything was trying to speak at once, and nothing was listening. The Piano had had enough. It started playing the opening chords of Beethoven's Fifth, going heavy on the loud pedal. After a few repetitions, the hubbub finally died down enough for it to be heard.

Title: The Sound of Bells
By:

daasgrrl
Pairing: House/Wilson
Rating: PG-13
Word count: 3,100
Costume Warnings: Songfic. Sappy. Wanktastically self-indulgent (particularly if you know me). And relentlessly PG-13. Wait... where are you going?
Summary: House arrives home to find Wilson engaged in an unexpected activity.
Beta: Thank you to

evila_elf and

topaz_eyes, who claimed to like it.
Notes: This fic was written for

karaokegal’s "Come As You’re Not" costume party, so I’m afraid I can’t be held fully responsible. I wanted to take a scenario that I would normally not want to inflict upon people, and make an utterly serious attempt at it, queasiness and all. And believe me, there was queasiness. Also, yes, I was slightly obsessed with the shiny white suit, thanks for asking *g*

Comments/feedback much appreciated.

Title: Grieving
By: daasgrrl
Pairing: House/Wilson
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: YABD - Yet Another Bloody Deathfic. Sorry to those who think the fandom already has too many.
Word count: 5x100, excluding titles
Notes: I’m not actually a member of housefic_pens as yet but I stole the linked drabble challenge from the other people who were doing it, so I thought I’d mention it. Thanks to evila_elf for giving it a read through. Indirectly prompted by someone on my f-list, who can probably guess who they are.

Title: The Photograph
By: daasgrrl
Rating: PG
Words: 1,615
Prompt: #52 Wilson as Dorian Grey in the modern world
Disclaimer: All hail David Shore

Notes: Thanks very much to evila_elf for beta (and apologies for forgetting while trying to get all the formatting right!)

The Picture of Dorian Grey, for anyone unfamiliar with it, is the story of a young man who remains beautiful, despite his many vices and evil deeds. He has a painting of himself done in the prime of his youth, which he keeps in the basement (correction from bloodanna: in the room at the top of the stairs), and it is the painting which ages and becomes ugly, instead of him. In the end the painting is destroyed, and so is he. Although this has obvious possibilities for Wilson, I didn’t want to retell the story; this fic is very much a variation on the theme rather than a straight rendering.

Written Feb/March 2006, hence before the fallout from Wilson's marriage breakup. Later became the basis for a separate, much longer fic, Nothing Left to Lose, which is why the themes may sound familiar if you’ve read that one.

( There is a photograph. )

Title: Missing scene - House vs God
By: daasgrrl
Rating: PG for language
Pairing: House/Wilson implied
Disclaimer: Not David Shore
Summary: Boyd makes a detour to Wilson's office
Notes: Just a little snippet that wouldn't go away after the episode last night.
