Unfeathered Notes

Signup for intoabar completed! I haven't done much fic writing over the last year, and not a hell of a lot RP either as multiple health issues and personal issues have drained a lot of my energy. But the medical issues at least are mostly sorted now and I'm feeling an awful lot better, and anyway there's no way I could pass up Intoabar!

Signups are still open until Sunday if you want to join in!

After much deliberation, I decided to go with the easy option this year and plumped for Giles as my main character.

The four fandoms from which the character he'll meet will be drawn:
1. New Who
2. Sarah Jane Adventures
3. Fawlty Towers
4. WandaVision

A very eclectic mix, but all the more fun for it! Also, if I don't end up with Wanda (who's so incredibly similar to Willow that that pairing kind of HAS to be done!) or someone from Fawlty Towers (Ripper in 1970s Torquay, anyone?), I may just have to write those at some point anyway... (Well, I could use one or other for summer_of_giles instead)

At last, the follow-up to Bridge Over Troubled Water that I began last summer but which fell by the wayside due to lack of motivation and the unfortunate intervention of Real Life... Thank you to Summer of Giles for giving me the kick I needed to finish it! :-)

Title: Stronger Together
Fandom: Buffy The Vampire Slayer/Torchwood
Pairing: Rupert Giles/Jack Harkness
Rating: R
Warnings: None
Word Count: 1313
Spoilers: Set after Torchwood: Children of Earth, which means it's a long way post-Chosen for Buffy
Disclaimer: Not mine
Summary: Jack's missing his wrist strap. Giles comes up with a replacement.
Author's Note: This is part of my Connection series, but each fic is separate and you don't need to have read the rest; all you need to know is that Giles is Jack's part-time Dom. This particular fic is a direct follow-up to Bridge Over Troubled Water so you might want to read that one first.

Written for summer_of_giles

Read it on AO3

...I may have just set up a Giles RP account.

It's been - god, how many years? - since I roleplayed anyone but Jack, but my Giles muse is so strong at the moment, I figured why not? I am, slowly, starting to run out of new things to do with Jack, and it would be nice to explore someone else.

Now I just have to get up the courage to try him out somewhere!

I just realised the posting day for the Buffy/Doctor Who fic exchange over at sonic_hellmouth has past - and the fic I wrote is the first one up! You can visit it over there too - and I suspect the others will be well worth a look too. I'm looking forward to seeing what was written for me!
