For all you shatter is our seeming, And in breaking we are free

I had to split my old Miscellaneous Fandoms List in two, because it had finally grown too big for LJ to handle. This is part II of the new list, with smaller fandoms that I've only written a handful of stories or less for.

Fandoms include: Blake's 7, Tin Man, Doctor Who, Sapphire & Steel, Neverending Story, Babylon 5, the Valois Romances, the Mummy movie series, Brimstone, the Pretender, Moulin Rouge, SGA, Tron Legacy, Wild Wild West (TV), Looney Tunes, Arsenic and Old Lace, Glass Books of the Dream Eaters, The Queen's Thief, The Pagemaster, The Magnificent Seven (TV), Dark City, L.A. Confidential, Haven (TV), Chess (musical), Saiyuki (manga), The Last Unicorn, the Vorkosigan Saga, Inception, Ouran High School Host Club (anime), the James Asher series (Barbara Hambly), Airwolf (TV), The A-Team (TV), RED (movie), Lewis (TV), Pacific Rim (2013), Once Upon A Time (TV), Alias Smith & Jones (TV), The Musketeers (2014), Penny Dreadful (2014), Team Fortress 2, Nirvana in Fire/Lang Ya Bang (TV), Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter (1974), the Miike Snow 'Genghis Khan' Music Video, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003), The Fantastic Journey (1977), and Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them (movies). Phew!

This is a surprisingly long story for me, for a canon I only rewatched recently and which a lot of people seem to despise. Heh. However, a) I really enjoy this movie, shite as it is in places, b) I really love Nemo, and c) I really ship these three. Two, three. So. Have eight thousand odd words as a result of my recent rewatch?

Part 3 of the gay supervillain fic. In which we deal with fair treatment of henchmen and a wee bit of supervillain backstory. I swear I'm not obsessed with this vid. Honestly I'm not.

This music video is the most adorable thing ever. Um. I don't know if Secret Agent Man and Mr Supervillain have official names, I just made these ones up out of whole cloth. I just really wanted something about this vid. It's amazing.

Okay, so when I said I wanted some Kronos & Grost fanfic, I was being serious. I have no idea how many people have even seen this movie, and given that there’s no AO3 category for it I’m guessing there’s not much of a fandom. I just wanted a little something post-movie regardless, though. So I wrote it. Heh.

Title: Morning Truths
Rating: PG
Fandom: Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter (1974)
Characters/Pairings: Hieronymus Grost, Captain Kronos. Slightly slashy Grost & Kronos
Summary: Two days after the destruction of Dr. Marcus' vampires, Hieronymus Grost wakes up with his head pillowed in his friend's lap and struggles to face the day without embarrassing himself further. Kronos, for his part, saw nothing embarrassing at all
Wordcount: 1396
Warnings/Notes: POST-MOVIE, vampires, aftermath, sleep, mornings, aches & pains, comfort, companionship, friendship/love, continuing on

I went on a mild Roddy McDowall kick following Legend of Hell House (in between my ghost story kick, I mean), and I ended up watching all 10 episodes of a cancelled 70s show called The Fantastic Journey (said 10 episodes being here on youtube).

It is ... It's kind of amazingly shite, like throw the worst episodes of Trek TOS, Blake's 7 and Logan's Run together, that kind of shite, and the special effects are gloriously terrible when they're not just terrible-terrible instead (there is one episode, it's damn near actually good, except for a truly dire 'spectral voice' effect for one possessed character that had me going WHY?! at the screen every time he opened his mouth). A bunch of people whose ships/spaceships/aircraft disappeared in places like the Bermuda Triangle end up on a strange interdimensional island divided into separate time periods, and try to figure out a way back off again. The main cast include a telepathic guy from the future, a young doctor from the 70s, a scientist's kid played by Ike Eisenmann, and then later a telepathic Atlantean/alien lady and Roddy McDowall's 60s 'rebel scientist' who starts out as a villain. The plots are a bit hackneyed, the characterisation wobbles around the place for a couple of characters, the cast switched around more than once in only ten episodes, and as stated previously the special effects vary from cheesy-bad to actual dire.

... I sort of love it. Which is bad, because there is ZERO fanfic, and I want some. Particularly, and I'm sorry to be cliched about it, but I kind of want Fred/Jonathan slash (they've a bit of Spock/McCoy vibe, okay?), and maybe Jonathan/Varian fallout from that Funhouse episode. It's not likely to happen, however :(

This is the problem with discovering old TV shows. It really is. Heh.

I have been watching horror movies/series the past couple of days. This is always an uncertain venture for me, because I am BAD at horror movies, or at least ghost movies, I get scared ridiculously easily. Only with ghosts, for some reason, anything that's a physical threat isn't half as scary to me, which common sense would say should be the other way around. Anyway. I've been giving a few of them a go anyway. I rather like Legend of Hell House (1973), actually. I do like paranormal investigation stories.

The one I'm on now, though, a 2008 BBC miniseries called Crooked House. It's pretty good too, it's just the third episode. Look, love. You've just been told that this door knocker is a relic of the most spectacularly haunted house in Christendom, you've spent a couple of hours being regaled with tales of gruesome goings-on there across the centuries, why the flying fuck would you bring said door knocker home and hang it on your front door?!? That is literally asking to be haunted. I mean, I know people in horror movies never know they're in horror movies, but there is such a thing as tempting fate, my love. If you have to bring it home, at least don't bloody hang the thing on the door waiting to be used, now matter what the creepy museum keeper says.

(Okay, it turns out later in a nice twist ending that he was gonna end up in the supernatural shithouse no matter what he did, but still. Don't go bloomin' hanging it on your door after being told it's haunted, what is wrong with you?)

I don't play the game, but someone who does showed me all the 'Meet The Team' videos, and this has been niggling at me ever since 'Meet the Medic'. It is, please pardon the language, fucked up beyond belief. I have never written anything like this before, and I sort of don't know what to do with it. So. Ah. Warnings in advance, heed all the warnings, and I'm so very sorry.

Title: The Tell-Tale Heart
Rating: HARD R
Fandom: Team Fortress 2
Characters/Pairings: Heavy, Medic, Heavy/Medic
Summary: "Do you know ze first time I saw my own heart, Heavy?" Medic offers Heavy an utterly horrifying demonstration of adoration, as only Medic can
Wordcount: 4015
Warnings/Notes: GORE, BODY HORROR, MEDICAL EXPERIMENTATION, MEDICAL TORTURE. Backstory, World War II, mention of the camps. Horror, romance, love, declarations of love.

For this prompt on comment_fic: "The Rock Biter + family, It's good to have them back, but he still has nightmares about losing them to the Nothing". That scene in the movie, 'they look like good, strong hands', broke my heart. I remember bawling at it as a kid, that and Artax. But. Ahem. I'm using elements from both the book (names, mostly, though there seem to be at least three different spellings for the English version of Vooshvazool) and the movies (that scene, the wife and son). I also gave the wife a random name, because I couldn't find her original one, if she had one? Sorry for the mess, really. Heh.


Title: Companions in Adversity
Rating: PG
Fandom: The Neverending Story (mostly movies)
Characters/Pairings: Rock Biter's wife, Pyornkrachzark|Rock Biter, Vooshvazool|Nighthob, Gluckuk|Tiny, Rock Biter Junior, mention of Atreyu
Summary: There are still scars left by the Nothing, though the Empress has been named and Fantasia is whole once more. In the aftermath, one Rock Biter watches as her husband, her family and her friends slowly begin to heal
Wordcount: 1145
Warnings/Notes: Discussion of nightmares, PTSD, healing, recovery, but happy ending

Not festivids. My sister sent me a link to this last night/this morning, and I've been in tears every goddamn time I've watched since. Thanks for that. I showed my parents, and they've been in tears since. And I thought I'd share the ... I don't even know. Misery/love/grief/joy/emotion?

So. Have Carl & Ellie's story from Pixar's UP set to Alan Jackson's 'Remember When': Remember When

You're all welcome.
