So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Yeah, I'm totally into the 2015 extras, should anyone be buying extras. (Vids are love.)

So, I, uh, committed Sherlock fic: Polishing School. What can I say, they had a drabble fest and I wanted to try my hand at a 221B.

"Below" by SpinnerDolphin is a really fine Neverwhere/Sherlock crossover fic. [link]

By the way, that was great Sail. I was coming here to rec that as well without knowing it was you.

That's hilarious, Typo! Thanks for putting a word in.
I'll have to take a look at Below. I had it marked for later, but my marked for later list gets so long I lose fics constantly. I've downloaded it now so I can load it up to my Kindle.
If you like Neverwhere/Sherlock TV crossovers, and haven't found them already, there's a couple more really good ones:
Above, Below (Through the Cracks) by doodle.
The Riddle by AxeMeAboutAxinomancy. She even throws in a gratuitous Sherlock from the ACD canon.
They're both slash, so if that's not your thing, you can bypass them.

I had to laugh when Watson shouted "Bullocks!" In the current fic I'm reading. Maybe if it was Al Swearengen saying it, it might work. Or someone who hates Sandra's entire family.

I have a hard time not back-buttoning out of fics where I run across things like that. I figure that the author is an American who doesn't have a clue about British slang, and is either a) too lazy to find out what it should be, or b) don't bother to find a Brit-picker. One or the other! It's not hard; it's called research.

thinks fondly of the days where every fucking Dark Angel fic seemed to involve jumpers and car parks, bless.
So I'm at almost 32k with the Push fic now. Today, I added project targets in Scrivener. I really, really want to finish the story so I can go work on something totally unrelated. In a totally different fandom. A fandom containing more than the approximately five people in Push fandom.
I think I set my goal date for finishing at two months after I started. Which probably isn't too bad for a novel-length piece, though my writing speed's been cut in half because of employment.
You know, I'm actually over 32k. I forgot I have a few handwritten pages to type in.
I should go do that now.
Also... how am I in this fandom again? I feel like my brain owes me an explanation. And a stiff drink.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Typo, SpinnerDolphin wishes me to convey thanks for rec'ing "Below". I left a rather enthusiastic comment after reading it.
