Purple Garters

Disclaimer: The following characters are property of their respective creators and owners. No copyright infringement intended.

Author’s Note: Sarah Jane/Maria has made me want to start writing fanfic again. This is a future fic, quite possibly the first in a series, set about five years after series one of the Sarah Jane Adventures.

O O O

Rated: PG

Type: Sarah Jane/Maria. Future fic/AU. Fluff with a pinch of angst.

Spoilers: None.

Summary: Sarah Jane suspected her life was easy to outgrow, and maybe that was why no one seemed to stick around.

( Sarah Jane Smith had faced death, so many times, and lived to face it again. So why couldn’t she stop shaking? )

I made two headers, one with text and one without, in honour of the comm doctordonnarose.

There is an icon to match as well... it's a bit small but I couldn't fit them all on it as a square!

Disclaimer: The characters in Stargate SG1 do not belong to me. Too bad, too. Cause season seven would have ended a lot differently. But that’s another story…

Author’s Note: Written for and dedicated to the lovely deejay435, for the "Five Things" meme. Where ever she is, I know she is happy and at peace. Thanks to my BFF okeananaya for the beta.

Rated: 13+ (language)

Type: Sam/Jack, Angst, Episode-related

Spoilers: Minor spoilers through season 8

Summary: Fraternization was never a choice, but neither was letting her go.

Title: Extraordinary Day
Sung By: Delta Goodrem
Video By: purple_shoes
About: Ten/Rose, Doomsday
Episode: Up to "Doomsday"
Size: 4.29MB (.zip)
Notes: This song, also know as "July the 8th", was written by Delta in response to the day she was told she had leukaemia. I felt that it was appropriate for Rose for two reasons: first, the episode "Doomsday" aired the 8th of July, a strange coincidence. Second, I felt that it echoed a similar, pinnacle moment when Rose realises her life, like many of our lives, is decided by fate, and the certain helplessness and strange comfort that can come from this realisation.

Many thanks to misssimm for so kindly being my webmistress and hosting my videos!

My internet has been down for the last couple of days, so I haven't been able to bring forth any updates in regards to the 1st Annual Doctor Who Limerick Project over at fandom_limerick.

The cut-off was originally tomorrow, but considering my inability to post a warning I am extending the cutoff to this Saturday, the 17th.

I'll have voting up as soon as I can after that, but please make sure that you limericks are posted by midnight (US mountain time) to help me make putting voting together less painful and disorganised.

And thanks to everyone who has so far participated! The limericks are great and it's looking like a fantastic year.

You have until June 15th to submit your limericks. Please pass on the word around your flists and comms!

Hosted by the wonderful theemdash and fandom_limerick.

( Reinette stands before her, her shoulders pulled back, her face still. Her frock spills across her front like a waterfall: tendrils of clothing envelop her like bursts of light. Rose thinks she is an angel. )

I used katrina87's fantastic iPod tutorial and made a ton of fandom iPod screens for various characters.
