Description:Affectionately dubbed Karaoke 2, this is the sequel to Atlantean Karaoke Night (http://astrum-presul.livejournal.com/339314.html) in the Season 2i universe. It's Karaoke Night again on Atlantis, with all the usual 2i players, along with a special guest or two from the SGC. Songs are sung, drinks are had, hilarity ensues, and maybe just maybe a certain couple learns what they really mean to each other. Pairings include Sheppard/Weir, Beckett/Cadman, mentions of Ronon/Teyla, Ford/OFC, and possible Sam/Jack.

Description:

"Working In Groups" (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3429000/1/Working_In_Groups). Deja Q, the anti-deus-ex-machina remix. The Continuum does not intervene to save Q from the Calamarain, or stop the Enterprise from doing so. Q has to work together with the Enterprise crew to deal with the Calamarain, or end up dead. Gen, ensemble TNG cast. I would like to finish this in full, but I'm expecting 30,000 words or less more on the fic, so that is all I will commit to.

Description:

"Quest" - Slightly AU. The Fellowship has not travelled together for long but already it is apparent that the One Ring’s influence on Frodo Baggins is growing. As he struggles to keep his increasingly dark thoughts at bay, his companions are finding they also are subject to a subtle increase in moodiness. Before long, a blizzard traps the Fellowship in a cave where their problems escalate, and suspicions grow difficult to ignore. . . (http://www.storiesofarda.com/chapterlistview.asp?SID=6383)

Description:"Ancestress"-- this is a story written in chapters of 300 word fixed-length-ficlets. After sailing to the West, Frodo and Bilbo meet the famous "faery wife" of the Tooks, and she tells them the story of her life with their ancestor. The first 14 chapters are up ( http://www.storiesofarda.com/chapterlistview.asp?SID=6159 ) , and I envision at least 20 more chapters to go. Possibly more.

Description:

"Book's Legacy", aka "Watching River" - Post-movie, Mal discovers something the Shepherd left for him: the last remaining relics of the Watcher's Council... and the care of the first true Slayer in hundreds of years. A slow discovery of what this means for River, for Mal, and for the rest of the crew, from Mal's POV with background ships but very team-fic-y. Currently at 12 parts totalling 27,200 words; would commit to 7,000 more (or story's end).

Description:

Heaven and Earth. Tara dies and becomes Immortal. Methos is her teacher and she leaves her mortal life behind her but, one year later, tragedy strikes Sunnydale, and Tara needs to know that her loved ones are okay. They go to Los Angeles, and Methos reluctantly tags along. Has a Tara/Willow slant, so femslash rather than slash, but I figured both would be covered by the slash ticky box! I started this fic years ago after the series ended, but I lost my wind towards the end. It's about 4/5 done, and I'm hoping a little push mght finish it.

Lords of Gondor -- "Every Boromir fan dreams of how the story might have gone if Boromir had not died that day upon Amon Hen, and wonders how having a living Boromir might affect the outcome of the story. This is that tale as I have imagined it -- an AU tale of Boromir alive, doing what it takes to get back home."

Currently stalled at 45 chapters -- no idea how many more it will be, so this one is basically epic.

Description:DI Sam Tyler woke up in 1973, and after months there still isn't sure whether he's mad, in a coma, or back in time. John Smith--a copper, he claims, but Sam's not so sure--muscles into the most disturbing case Sam has ever worked, and Sam begins to see in Smith what he suspects others see in him: a skewed outsider's perspective verging on insanity. Has Smith also traveled through time? Or is there something more sinister in play than Sam has yet figured out? (Might be a tiny bit of het sprinkled in here, Sam/Annie, but should mostly be gen.)

Bartender gets tired of hearing people's troubles so makes a deal with the Sidhe. Into the bar comes Harry Dresden, who's working on an unrelated case. And it turns out that cheapest on tap (which he feels guilty for even getting, as hello, Mac's brew is best) was a new recipe to render drinkers speechless. Literally.

Will be Harry/Karrin. No sexy times, though, probably just a kiss.
