Length: 7000 words
Fandom: Big Bang Theory
Prompt: I used the second fifteen prompts in order from the Paradox-o-rama Fiction Friday thing, and all of these are day-after continuations of the first fifteen prompts that I used for Through the Looking Glass.

A/N: Um. I do not even know. Seriously. But there were fifteen picture prompts left that I didn't get to use for the Paradox-o-rama thing, so here they are. Unbeta'd; would love any feedback, as always!

HUGE THANKS to my betas: inkdot for the hand-holding above and beyond the call of duty; the_wanlorn for the cheerleading and always letting me know when my lampshades are crooked. Thanks also to allthingsholy for an unexpected gift ♥

I also want to say thank you to the artists who created beautiful things for this story when I totally fell down on the job. Make sure you visit their posts and tell them how awesome they are!

"What are you waiting for?" he asked, then motioned at the road stretching out ahead of the car. "Let's go."

She still wasn't an expert on Sheldon — who could be, really? — but she knew that voice. That was his barely-holding-on-to-sanity voice. She threw the car into drive and slowly pulled out of her parking space. With any luck, she thought, her eyes would adjust before she hit anything too important.

Twenty minutes later, she would have given anything to be as blind as the proverbial bat.

She stood on the hood of her car and shaded her eyes with her hands as if that would erase any of what she saw. Sheldon, standing next to the front left tire, made a noise in the back of his throat and sagged against the car.

Title: Long Time Waiting
Rating: PG
Length: ~1800 words
Fandom: Big Bang Theory (Penny/Leonard, Sheldon)
Prompt: "secretly a virgin" from the tropefic meme

A/N: This is the tenth of eleven lightning round fics I offered at help_haiti. The incomparable dashakay donated and asked for Penny/Sheldon with a twist - instead she gets Penny/Leonard with the same twist. IDEK. (my matching donation for 4-11 of the 11)

Totally unbeta'd and a bit of a departure so I would TOTALLY love any concrit or feedback.


"I'm not talking about this with you, Sheldon. Get out so I can go home and back to bed, or I'll come over there and kick you out."

Once again it occurs to me that I should have posted something here instead of in my regular journal. I will get the hang of this fic journal thing someday!

Excerpts from all 23 current WIPs in my writing folder

And yes obviously I am in over my head slightly a lot.

howtoswim, damalur, and dashakay requested some DVD-style commentaries for the following fics:

30 Rock:
no one's going to save you

Big Bang Theory:
Kafka, Schmafka - very long, in three parts
Warm Gulf Wind

All three have links to the un-commentated fics in case you missed them the first time around.

Title: No Time for Codes and Manners
Rating: PG for language
Length: 1400 words
Fandom: Big Bang Theory (Penny/Sheldon)
Prompt: from the tropefic meme but telling you would be giving it away :P

A/N: This is the third of eleven lightning round fics I offered at help_haiti. The ALWAYS AMAZING juniperlane donated $5 to UNICEF (and another five for another trope that is upcoming, but I donated to AfH because I am fail)! (my matching donation) Completely cracked out Doctor Who crossover set in a larger universe that is still WIP. Title is from "The Edge of Destruction".

Read it at AO3!

The lovely and talented irrel offered up a chance for a custom fanart as part of help_haiti's lightning round, and I am unashamed to admit that I JUMPED ALL OVER THAT.

And then she drew the following for me based on a few lines in Kafka Schmafka, and it is just the MOST ADORABLE THING EVER.
