Approximately twenty million years ago (in 2006!), I started andraste 's 100 fandoms challenge ( table ). I am finally nearing the end, with only 6 fandoms left to cover. So, I'm taking prompts: fandom, character, key word (the 6 remaining are key, dust, clip, waves, lighting, trailed). The catch is, it has to be for fandoms I haven't written for before (the list of covered fandoms is below the table). But of course, I haven't written for ages, so that should be fairly easy.

So go on - prompt away.

I took the day off today. This is in response to my body basically breaking yesterday, which I suspect had something to do with me going out to dinner Thursday evening. (Spent Thursday night sick as a dog, not fun. I think my body has decided to be allergic to anything not caffeine-related.) I did mostly nothing, but caught up on some reading and watched the second half of The State Within. Am contemplating either a really brainless movie or a really arty one this evening. I have enough stock-piled so I don't need to rent anything, but I may have to venture out to the corner store for popcorn and chocolate. Horrors.

In non-work related matters, I am trying to get my social planner back on track. This coming week and the week after look rather busy, and my weekends have basically disappeared until the new year. I have no idea how that happened, frankly, I'm a little surprised as I don't recall planning anything during those months. But what with birthdays and hen parties and a wedding to attend, that's wrapped up most of the remaining year.

So - what I really need to do is find a winter dress for a wedding. For two weddings, actually. I have formal wear for the summer, but nothing suitable for the winter. Any thoughts or suggestions?

The fandom nominations are open for yuletide! I look forward to yuletide every year, it's the one ficathon where I always have time to write and don't feel rushed. I don't usually submit fandom nominations, as there is always plenty for me to volunteer for, but as it's here...

After much to-ing and fro-ing, I finally decided on:

( fandoms )

I love plenty of other small fandoms, but I suspect that things like Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and Secretary will have plenty of nominations, whereas the above are small even for yuletide. So. :)

In honour of yuletide (and of me taking the weekend off), comment with a rare fandom, a character suggestion and a prompt, and I'll drabble you something. (Caveat: this offer only stretches to fandoms I've actually heard of, so if you're not sure, offer a selection, pls.)

From sidewinder:

Comment with a sentence from one of my fanfiction stories. Without looking, I have to try and guess which fic of mine the sentence is from. If I fail, the challenger wins a drabble request.

I promise not to cheat. :)

The drabble request can be in any fandom for which I've already written stuff, or you can try your luck with something I haven't attempted before (I am still working on my 100fandoms, after all); for prompts, please give me a character/pairing plus a word/concept.

My fic can be found here (and the listing was recently updated, too).

I've done all the work I can do, and both my boss and supervisor appear to have disappeared for the day. I'm stuck here for another hour and a half, though, as I have a work dinner later. So, in lieu of actual entertainment, I'm going to amuse myself.

Comment with a fandom and a character and a word or phrase, and I'll write you a quickie drabble. In fact, comment with as many as you like - I'll keep writing them for as long as I'm stuck at the office.
