sophinisba has recorded my House/Wilson ficlet "In Gear" as a podfic!

The story was originally posted in 2005, and I'm totally tickled that it still has life.

You can download it and/or listen to it streaming at her journal.

I've got two new fanworks up at in_the_beginning! (The fest officially runs over the weekend, but I'm not sure how much I'm going to be online tomorrow, so I'm posting early.) One is a vignette (a Bible/Doctor Who crossover), and the other is a podfic.

Last night slinkling and I watched a bit more of the first season of the Vampire Diaries. (We're up to "The Turning Point" and "Bloodlines" -- episodes 10 and 11.) I'm having a blast. They really do pack as many plot twists into a single episode as some shows include in a season.

Do any of y'all have Vampire Diaries recs to share? Slinkling's seen through the end of S3, so she isn't worried about spoilers; for my part, if you could include a mention of how much canon one needs to have seen, I'd appreciate it.) Thank you kindly!

I've been reading a ton of really fabulous long fic lately. Here are a few of the things which have absorbed me the most wholly and brought me the most joy. Three recs in Avengers (one Clint/Natasha, one Tony/Steve, one multiple pairings) and one rec for a crossover series (Generation Kill + the Iskryne books by matociquala and truepenny.)

( Recs right this way! )

Date: 2012-05-21 20:23 Subject: Traken Security: Public Tags: doctorwho

Tonight's viewing was another Fourth Doctor four-parter: The Keeper of Traken. (Wikipedia entry; Tardis.wikia.com entry.)

I watched the first two parts while looking after Zaphod, making him dinner, etc. So I didn't manage to liveblog or to watch terribly closely.

Part 3 I managed to watch after Zaphod went to bed, with wineglass and laptop to hand.

( Whee! )

Alas, partway into part 4 the audio cuts out. And when I try to restart the ep, the same thing happens. I can't fast-forward to see if the audio later returns; that just crashes VLC. So I am now watching the rest of it silently, and reading about it on tardis.wikia.com, instead. Oh well.

Tell me someone has written the story where Rodney McKay meets up with Tony Stark?

I'm not necessarily looking for the slash; I'm not certain the universe could contain that collision. But -- having spent several years with Rodney, and having just met Tony last week when I saw Avengers -- I can't help feeling that their meeting would be epic and amusing and full of snark.

kouredios and I just watched the end of the first season of the Tenth Doctor. "Doomsday."

Hold me?

(Seriously -- what an amazing two-parter. Action-packed and awesome! Until the end, whereupon I wept like a baby.)

It occurred to me that the way to manage to see the movie that everyone else in fandom is talking about, even though I'm solo-parenting a lot of the time right now and my spouse has negative interest in the Avengers and so forth, was to play hooky for an afternoon and see a matinee.

So kouredios and squirrelhaven and I had lunch (mmm, half-price sushi) and went to see a matinee. In 3-D, even, because that was the only showing which would allow us all to get to daycare in time to retrieve our kidlets.

It was wildly entertaining, as promised. And now I'm pretty sold on needing to see the first Iron Man movie. And if you happen to have recs, feel free to drop 'em here. *grin*
