Drabble Meme and Various News

Now, who the sod is this guy? "Staunch conservative"? Be still my heart... I sense that the more liberal side of the US is none too happy, I do.
Am slowly plotting an AU Doctor Who fic with the "Bad Wolf" theme. Plotting is a pain in the ass. But I shall prevail! Should be a long fic, too. Mmm-mmm.
In other news:
UN rejects US offer for Guntanamo visit until it involves detainee access
Iraqi reconstruction hampered by attacks
Neo-Nazi website confusing youth with Holocaust doubts
Male mice serenade females in courtship
The Rules of Sarcasm (Heh.)
Can you pass the UK citizenship test?
Bringing back an old classic... Drabble meme!
How to play:
1. Pick a fandom offered: CSI, LotR, Babylon 5, X-Files, Harry Potter, Doctor Who (I know a few more, but I'll restrict it to those because I'm mean).
2. Choose a pairing or characters, and one more specific if you'd like. Examples: Grissom and Sara plant a tree or Kosh talks to a fluffy bunny about coffee.
I am willing to do slash, and any genre within reason. Crossovers are also cool.
3. You can also pick a Wild Card- choose a fandom and I will write a drabble that combines it with one of your interests listed on your LJ profile.
I will bust out a drabble somewhere between 75-150 words for you.

Date: 2005-11-01 12:23 pm (UTC)Oh, it wasn't that he wasn't tempted. She was beautiful, returned his flirting, didn't have any hideous deformities, didn't drool in her sleep, didn't snore. And if he'd met her anywhere else, he would have swept her off her feet and watched her sleep in the stillness of night.
And then, being who he had been, he would probably have left her and never know her at all.
But he hadn't met her anywhere else and it was the TARDIS who watched her sleep and the Doctor watched the TARDIS and Jack, Jack watched them all and went on being tempted and nothing more.

Because Nine is the number of your counting ;)

Date: 2005-11-01 01:07 pm (UTC)Everyone else seems to be requesting Doctor Who...but I'm not familiar enough with this fandom (yet). Problem is, I'm not really in the mood for CSI either...So, I think I'll have to go for Harry Potter.
The Weasley twins and a Wild Card.
Grazie!!!
200 words. Kant.
Date: 2005-11-01 01:26 pm (UTC)It had been any other day. Any other save the world, with a little pain thrown in. He hadn't minded, he was used to it. Rose wasn't.
“I can't believe you're just letting him go!” she'd raged at him, eyes blazing.
He'd merely shrugged. “Love thine enemy.”
“I can't love a guy that tortured you! That's impossible!”
“You should have a chat with Kant. He reckons there's a love by will. Practical and in principles of actions, not pathological.”
“I would tell him to stick his principles a certain place,” she'd said and of course, he'd been unable to resist the temptation. Kant's ears were probably still burning from all she'd said. He knew his was.
There was love by will and there was love above will, and somewhere on their fifth beer in a German tavern, Rose had kissed him and his will had been powerless.
It was really all Kant's fault.
Just as he planned on it being Aristotle's fault after that. And then maybe Descartes'. Or Hume.
Any other seduction by philosophers, he thought and gave up on free will and let her lead him.

Date: 2005-11-01 01:29 pm (UTC)I adore Kant. I heart Kant. I am a Kant fangirl.
This is wonderous beyond measure!

Date: 2005-11-01 01:48 pm (UTC)“Rose?”
“It's Jack!” she gasped, and didn't stop, running on until he caught her. “He came by mum's! He's alive!”
She wasn't sure if it was an embrace or a dance he engaged her in, but she didn't really care what word it was. Spinning around madly, she felt him mirror her delight, her mirror his until she could feel nothing else.
“Come on,“ he said, clutching her hand. “Let's find our wayward companion and let him kiss us both.“
They ran. She couldn't stop laughing, and neither could he, and even changed, his laughter was enough to make her dance across planets with him.
205. Triple J.
Date: 2005-11-01 02:02 pm (UTC)"Yes, well, after regeneration, the TARDIS tends to adjust a bit too," he muttered, switching on his sonic screwdriver. "I'll have mastered it today, I promise. Or tomorrow. Next week at the latest."
"And how many accidental landings and following near death experiences are we gonna have meanwhile?"
"Just a few."
"Right."
She didn't look too pleased, he noted.
"Rose? I know it's a lot to get used to... But you think you'll get used to this? Eventually?"
For a moment, even the TARDIS seemed silent.
"I will have to be," she finally said, and a shadow of a smile crossed her lips. "Takes more than a new body and new clothes to get rid of me, Doctor."
He grinned, unable to help himself. "Delighted."
"But," she said, and poked a finger against his chest, "if you don't get that ship to stop broadcasting Triple J, Australia's youth radio, in my bedroom very, very soon, this ship is going to have a serious accident involving me, the sonic screwdriver and a lot of accidental jabs to its fine machinery."

121 words. Smut.
Date: 2005-11-01 02:17 pm (UTC)Jack's is rough, demanding, coaxing moans out of her with his hands, body warm against her back, breath hot against her neck, teeth hard against her shoulder.
The Doctor's is soft, gentle, ever slightly hesitant, but hard, so hard against her stomach, fingers at her nipples, lips warm against her and welcoming her moans.
Hers is curves and skin feeling so beautiful between them, welcoming both, one hand behind her feeling Jack, one hand feeling the Doctor. Three angles, three sides, and when Jack leans over her shoulder and kisses the Doctor too, she think geometry the most beautiful thing in the Universe.
