"...raw, ferociously funky stuff that nods toward 70s Miles, with Artanker driving the whole train from behind his kit." -Time Out New York

"Artanker Convoy played a heavily psychedelic, dub-inflected set. The Brooklyn six-piece channeled Can and Spacemen 3 with their dense sound, and differentiated themselves from like-minded contemporaries with the prominent use of hand drums and a saxophone." -Spin

Title: This is Forever (3/?)
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: The BBC owns all, I am merely borrowing.
SPOILERS: 4x13 Journey's End

Part Three: "Oh." He grimaces. "That’s just...wizard. Coffee I can live with, but complimenting Jack’s physical attributes..."

( Previous Parts and Summary Beneath the Cut )

Willkommen to a crack-filled musical (theatre!) tribute to Doctor Who's magnificent Martha Jones! There's plenty of the Doctor, too, and special guest star Capatain Jack as the irrepressible 'Elsie'.

Life in the TARDIS? It's only a Cabaret, old chum.

Essentially this is a companion vid to this, this, and this.

Have fun. Comments are ♥! :-)

Title: The First Five Times
Author: pellnell
Character/Pairing: Ten/Rose
Rating: Adult
Summary: Set post-"Journey's End," I felt inspired by a Stars song, "The First Five Times." It's not necessary to have heard the song, but each segment is loosely based upon the song.
Disclaimer: Oh, how I wish I owned them and not the BBC. Then I would know what all that stand-in hubbub is about.
Author's Notes: So, this is the official smutty chapter. Sex, and also my love of Stardust and Joss Whedon shines through a bit. Also, mood music can be found here.

( Fourth time, I said 'that's that.' You've agreed to give me everything. )

Do do do do do doooooooooooooooo, dun na na na na na, dun na na na na na, doo doo doo!!!

That's me singing the X-Files theme song. Y'know, I wasn't really excited about the film at first for some reason, probably because it was so far off, but now that it's premiering tomorrow I CAN'T WAIT. All my old XF fangirly squeeishness is coming to the forefront! Mulder! Scully! Aliens! YAY! I even got out one of my old T-shirts (and I mean old, from 1995!) to wear.

I am also completely unspoiled. COMPLETELY. Which means, shhhh, nothing in the comments, please.

In honor of the movie, I put two episodes of the show onto my Playstation Portable. I used a great, free piece of software called DVD Catalyst that converts DVD files into mp4. Mp4 is also the format needed for iPod video. In a few minutes you too can have Mulder and Scully on your iPod or PSP, for free! I put "Bad Blood" and "Small Potatoes" on there, and they look fantastic.

*bounces*

And here's a great article about Scully from Slate writer Rebecca Traister (thanks to dashenka).

I'm going to see it tomorrow night. *squee*!!!!

I wanted to be a Gladiator when I grew up. You know, blue and silver spandex and a wicked handle with the hairdo to match? It didn’t happen.

( Not even close... )

the rest here at my journal

Er, yeah. Where to start? There is so much backstory to this I don't have the full idea of and probably never will. But I became aware of it when a friend linked me to ithiliana, who says:

The purpose of this post is to call out somebody who actively seeks to harm other fans. She lies. She outs fans by connecting their real life identities with their fannish identities. She is trying to make money from a site which is billed as "history" and which contains lies, damn lies, and misinformation as well as the public outing of fans which, despite her claims, she will not remove if asked, not if the person asking fits her definition of an "influential" fan although many influential fans are *not* outed in the journal.

Fairly strong language - and the target of it someone who was on my flist up until this. I've never had any negative dealings with her, but I have defriended her now because I am extremely uncomfortable with what she did in the now deleted entry on fanthropology. Clearly, there's a whole lot of other stuff going on too - backstory, agendas, grudges, bias, the debate over OTW (which I remain uncomfortable about, but stay on the fence) and I'm getting a headache.

The post I linked to have a lot of links and information if you want to read up. There are also some defenders showing up in the comments. metafandom is also involved - the rule change here is specifically come from this situation and they've linked to several opinions on it here.

If you missed the fanthropology post, this post explains what went on. To summarize from that:

apparently the owner got her hands on [lj name]'s real name. And added said name, and several details of her offline and professional life, to the FanHistory page about her. And if someone tries to remove [lj name]'s real-life details, saying "she doesn't want these things linked, please stop," the owner reverses the edits and restores the revealing page. And when challenged, said owner made a giant post to fanthropology proclaiming your real-life details fair game if you've ever posted on an archive, made an online journal, or joined a message board.

Again, there are some defenders in the comments - I haven't found a post that actively defends what was done, or I would link it in the interest of balance. If there is such a thing in all this.

ETA: Oh, here's one defending FanHistory and the posting of RL name.

I spent far too much time yesterday trying to get a sense of this all, and I pretty much only got a headache and an urge to cheer self up by ordering stuff on Amazon. I think it's time for the wankshelter bar again. Anyone want a drink?

Someone make me write Adama/Roslin fic fast before my brain gets devoured by really unfunny stuff, PLEASE?

Title: Thoughts, Like Threads
Author: rachelbeann
Character/Pairing: Nine, Rose, implied Nine/Rose
Rating: PG
Summary: She is weaved into every construction; she is the muse of every artist, the math of every carpenter.
Disclaimer: Mine. Not mine. :D
Author's Notes: Beta'd by momdaegmorgan and dedicated to Liv (AKA the_magpye ). Consider this a big, sharp stick prodding you to finish up the first installment of the Magpies!Verse, m'dear.

Thoughts, Like Threads 

Title: Same as Always
Rating: Adult
Summary: In which much sexual tension is generated and resolved between Rose and the Ninth Doctor.
Beta: vyctori
Spoilers: Nada, zip, nothing - spoiler free zone, please comment accordingly.
Disclaimer: Do not own.
A/N: Because In Human Hands was getting to me.

( It starts off the same way it always does. )

Just a little something short and sweet, in response to a few trends I'd seen in post-Journey's End fics. :) The link below goes to my journal.

Title: A Matter of Timing
Author: casirafics
Pairing: Rose/Ten (Journey's End-compliant, minor spoilers for finale)
Rating: R
Length: 600 words


( Wherein at least somebody was thinking ahead.... )

morwen_peredhil - I just saw a promo for SCC season 2, and for the first time since Fox started showing them, I actually spotted Derek in it - twice - and he was blowing shit up. 

Seriously.  He had like a rocket launcher in one scene.

That will SO need to become an icon at some point this year. ETA: Thank you miniglik!

Story: Dancing Lessons
Author: Melinda Kitty melindakitty
Characters: Ninth Doctor, Captain Jack Harkness, Rose Tyler;
Rated: oh, so Adult for slash, bisexuality, mature content, language, violence, and lots and lots of sex (multiple pairings/groupings)
Disclaimer: I don't own 'em, 'cause if I did there would have been no parting of the ways, Rose would be happy and walking funny, and a love of tech isn't the only thing Nine and Jack would be sharing.
Spoilers: AU. If you haven't seen the first three series of Doctor Who, you may be spoilered. I like to mess with canon.
Summary: By popular request: OT3 Nine/Jack/Rose. One of Jack's exes is out for a bit of revenge. Can the Doctor and Rose figure a way to rescue him before he has to pay the piper? Watch for fancy footwork, a bit of intrigue, occasional plot, and a large excuse for love and smut.

Shimmy: A sexy-sexy dance move that is part of several different disciplines. A dancer has to move his/her shoulders very, very quickly. Often combined with an intense or coquettish look. This one requires more than a little practice, skill, and confidence to pull it off effectively.

(Nine does a solo only a Time Lord would attempt.)
