Okay, so it's possible I've signed up for a couple too many ficathons in the next couple of months:
1.
sga_genficathon, about which I can't talk since it's secret, but which is driving me *insane* trying to figure out how I want to structure the story. Not the plot, not the characters, not even how it's going to end, but the damn structure. April. Done
2.
femme_fic: prompt tbc (and may I just say that it's pathetic how excited I get every time I check my email, hoping there'll be a prompt. Seriously. Pathetic), but femslash of some description. 1st May. Done
3.
lgbtfest #1: "Generation Kill, Brad/Nate, leaving the corps didn't mean he no longer had to worry about the UCMJ. He might be a grad student at Harvard, but retiring definitely wasn't on Brad's immediate horizon," which I swear I chose solely because I have this girl's voice in my head telling Nate that Brd's never going to leave the marines for him. No context, no idea who she is, just this one line. 12th May Done
4.
team_sga AU fest: Pegasus B&B, which is a prompt that makes me dorkily happy, but I want more au fic where everyone's always been in Pegasus instead of always been on Earth. Actually, I want *any* fic where this is true, since it seems to be non-existent. 14th May. Done
5.
lgbtfest #2: "Any fandom, any character, Being gay in the U.S. military means you've always got a secret -- but it also means you've always got a community," which I mainly chose because, as much as I liked the fic that was around a few months ago wherein there's a little male gay community on Atlantis, coordinated by Rodney (though, seriously, Rodney? I know, being a McKay/Sheppard fic it had to be one of them and couldn't be Sheppard, but seriously).... Um, right, as much as I liked that story, I got to the end and was all, but what about the girls? Lesbians and bisexual women exist you know! Which is possibly a spurious reason for choosing a prompt. 15th May Done
6.
thelittlebang, which will be Firefly and for which I have kind of an idea, but it's one of those where I need to start before I figure it out. Also, it has to be 15,000 words. 20th May. Done
Which is not to say I can't probably manage it all, but just... now would be the time to panic, right?!

And......... Did you see Numb3rs?

I saw...the one where Liz was undercover. But nothing since then - I've totally lost track of when it airs.
I am however looking forward to these stories
:o) I promise, there will be no gay/bi Rodney in them. Probably very little Rodney at all, actually, except in the team au one, for which he's kind of required. Sadly, most of the sga lgbtfest prompts are fairly Rodney-centric, which makes me sad - I love that ficathon, but not enough to read about Rodney, especially considering how many of the prompts have John as the 'bad guy'. Which is not a complaint worth rehashing, since we just debated it in this journal a couple of months ago!

That's the last one. Not nearly as much Colby as I would like. But David was great. And I missed Nikki (although Liz is probably happier that she wasn't around for this one and is hoping that no one is going to say anything to Nikki.)
no subject
Though his 'what did I do?' when Don called them all in to yell was by far my favourite moment in the entire episode (though yes, it would have been vastly improved with the addition of Nikki, as all episodes would)
