Well, firstly, i'd been thinking of you, cos I remember you said things had gone quiet - and right now that tends to be bad rather than good somehow. So: :-( You have all my sympathy (& good luck with those escape routes - none of them was that dodgy ejector seat I seem to recall from somewhere, was it?)
And secondly, I knew you probably wouldn't want to do a ficathon right now - I thought you might like to pimp your fic there, like this. (If not, I can & will rec them, but you can only do recs in the comments on one specific post and yours is way too good to hide like that.) I like the idea of a central bank to find obscure character fic, I have to say.
Besides, you might like to note that someone else has written a story with Gerald in it!!! I was shocked. I count him and the rest as being completely yours; I don't care what the BBC say.
But I looked at the prompts and thought pretty much that. (Although I'm willing to bet just about anything it wasn't the same prompt. There's another been added since that I thought was fun. I think I may be signing up - the timing would be ok for me, and I don't have to worry about the Boar of Arvswood.
But - what a week. I'm trying to do what I can to stop the gov't casting the public library service to the four winds (yup, it's a windmills moment, I think, but absolutely true!), while being sent off to deal with grass-cutting and dog-poo, and you're not the only one on my flist who's been put out of job on the same day. But why worry? The woman on the news says the recession is over. Talk about ironic.
:-( Fic doesn't cure all ills, but it does help when it comes to catharsis. (Even of spurious morality, if you want.)
