My Shield And My Shelter
Hello everyone. I'm delighted to have discovered this comm, I don't know why it didn't occur to me ages ago to see if there was S&S fandom on LJ. I tend to come back to this wonderful show every few years, having first discovered it when a friend recommended I watch it in the days when if you didn't see it on broadcast, you were never going to see it again! Unfortunately, I started with Assignment 6 - oops - and that was my lot for many long years. I was always intrigued by what I'd seen, but it's amazing to remember now how incredibly difficult it was to find out anything about a show that was off the air in those distant pre-Internet days.
Eventually, they invented DVDs and they invented the Internet and I was finally able to see the rest of the show and connect with other fans. My last great wave of enthusiasm happened just before Internet comms like this one had really taken off, so although I wrote some fic, it wasn't as easy as it is now to find a forum for it online unless you were prepared to set up your own web site. It was then that I wrote this substantial but as yet incomplete story, but never posted it anywhere.
Having been reminded recently of how uniquely wonderful S&S is when I finally got round to watching the DVD set I bought a couple of years ago, I remembered this story and thought this comm might enjoy it. Hopefully it will encourage me to finish it!

Title: The Great Chicken Wars
Author Spikesgirl58
Rating G
A S&S/ Doctor Who cross. My thanks to my Betas and to Kittenmommy for the great plot bunny.
“Have you gotten them?” The war god, Nafanua, although proud and strong, kept well hidden behind his boulders. He was a god, but he was defying one of his brother gods, one who had a notoriously short temper.
“Yes and they are more precious than pearls, I’m told.” Losi dropped his burden to the ground. The bag writhed, heaved and created a huge racket. He looked around, hoping the pounding surf drowned out the noise.
“They are noisy pearls.” Nafanua studied at the sky. This island was far from the other, but not far enough in his considered opinion.
Tuli was not a god to annoy and they had just stolen a dozen of his finest and most loved birds for a feast to honor Tagaloa, the mighty God of Gods. Had they asked, Tuli might have just handed some over, but he wasn’t known for his generosity. He would be selfish and surrender only a few birds and they would be sure to be skinny and old, not the succulent feast they now had.
It was only right that all the gods should share some of the delicious bird flesh for themselves. When it was steamed with coconut milk, it was indeed a feast worthy of the gods. And, after all, they were gods.
A bolt of lightning lit up the sky and a bush beside Nafanua exploded into flames.
Losi drew a breath. “I think he’s noticed and I don’t think he’s happy about it.” The tree to his left lit up like a giant torch. “Really really not happy.”
Thus began the Great SamoanChicken War.

Just a quick post to let you know that the fantastic
mab_browne and I have been given control of
element_flash, and that I've been posting monthly fic prompts.
We've got new fic and some activity going on, so please come join the fun! :D

Quest For Two
I made yet another S&S fanvid to Hayley Westenra, but it's the last (for now), so forgive me for the spamming of the comm with my efforts.
Across the Universe of Time
Sapphire/Steel (or Sapphire and Steel, whichever way you prefer to look at it) to Hayley Westenra's Across the Universe of Time. (Gosh, why would I use a song with a title like that for S&S?) Clips from all Assignments; thus potential spoilers, especially for 4 & 6. Link goes to YouTube.
So it turned out there was a prompt for Silver over at
whoniverse1000 & therefore I wrote this (with added Coda for the non-comment!fic version.)
Silver, Tenth Doctor (Silver/Ten), Sapphire, Steel.
All ages, 806 words.
When it comes to seducing the Doctor - in this incarnation at least - Silver has certain advantages over other beings.
Warnings: None, no spoilers. (Although possibly I should warn for not being entirely serious and nothing much actually happening?)
( Sidetracked )
Posted together to save me spamming the comm, as they're all of them short and on a similar theme - that of Silver, Sapphire & Steel together.
Silver/Sapphire/Steel fanvid:
Always With Me (Link goes to YouTube)
Sapphire, Silver and Steel and the dance that they are. To Hayley Westenra's (English lyrics) version of 'Itsumo Nando Demo'. Clips from Assignments 3 & 6.
( Links to two ficlets )
The last post reminded me that I also had another fanvid - I'd made it in March but never posted here (I was a bit unsure whether it was a good idea, and also I realise now I seem to have stopped posting to comms lately; I've probably got other things I need to fish out...):
The Carnival Is Over. (Link goes to YouTube).
Silver, Sapphire, Steel. Assignment 6, so SPOILERS, and, well, Assignment 6. To The Carnival Is Over by The Seekers. (Er. Yes. Sorry.)
