Creator Links: esteefee on AO3
Themes: Uncommon settings, Worldbuilding, AU: apocalypse/dystopia, AU: fantasy/magic, Friends to lovers, First time, Humor, Action/adventure
Summary: Major John Sheppard was starving, delirious, chased by monsters to the edge of the world, when he raised the City from the sea.
Ten years later, Dr. Rodney McKay comes to the peaceful City, bringing war in his back pocket.
Reccer's Notes:
This fits the "unusual settings" category as the world depicted in this fic is extremely strange, surreal, and quirky. I've reccd it before but in a different category, and it's a story that's well worth re-reading. Despite the tags for fantasy and dystopia, it isn't traditional fantasy/magic at all, and it mostly isn't a straightforward dystopia. Yes, it's post-apocalyptic and the rest of the world's very dystopic, but Atlantis herself is a solarpunk refuge in the chaos. The story is set after the detonation of a quantum unreality bomb which plunged Earth into fantastical chaos where very few laws apply consistently - certainly not those of physics, or normality. Weird monsters, fantasy creatures, and dangerous improbabilities now abound, although much reduced in Atlantis. The worldbuilding's terrific, and woven into this new world is a story where John and Rodney meet and become friends, and more. There's also plenty of plot, including a daring rescue. It's an excellent read, and highly recommended!

Doctor Who: "The Time Warrior"

They really went for competent, feisty, and full of gumption off the bat with Sarah, didn't they?
Linx was an interesting introduction to the Sontarans, actually.
Irongron is a pill of a brute of a villain, but I really liked Eleanor of the other castle.
This is the best line: "Is this Doctor a long shank rascal with a mighty nose?" and sums up the Third Doctor well.
Deep Space Nine Drabble
Oct. 21st, 2025 07:18 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Elim Garak, Julian Bashir
Additional Tags: Drabble
Summary:
Someday, Julian will avoid the test
Julian did his best to ignore Garak with his unblinking stare, focusing on his own meal. Surely he could be patient enough to let Garak come to his conclusions and speak first.
It couldn't be that hard to ignore the pointed behavior.
Really.
"Alright, what is it? Denebian spots on my face today?" Julian demanded when he still had at least five bites left of the salad.
Garak smiled. "A new record for you, my dear doctor," he said, and Julian flushed as that made it another psychological test.
"Someday, I will make it a full meal."
Garak laughed skeptically.

Fradrian Week 2025
Fradrian Week is a fan-led event celebrating the femslash ship of Franziska von Karma x Adrian Andrews from Ace Attorney! This prompt event runs from December 8 - December 14, 2025. We're so excited to see what everyone will create 🩵💛
Prompts and How to Submit
Main Prompts (SFW)
Day 1: Work / Relaxation
Day 2: Wounds / Healing
Day 3: First Dates / Mishaps
Day 4: Facade / Showbusiness
Day 5: Trust / Reliance
Day 6: Future / Celebrations
Day 7: AU / Free Day

To submit your work, post to the #fradrianweek2025 (for SFW creations) or #fradrianweek2025nsfw (for NSFW creations) on tumblr or bsky and/or submit to our AO3 Collection. We will be sharing creations throughout the week!
Late submissions will be accepted up to 1 week after the event.
General Guidelines
You can submit fanfiction, drabbles, podfic, poetry, sketches, a mixtape—whatever medium you feel passionate about! There is no minimum word count.
This event is meant to be for fun—don't feel like you have to create something perfectly polished in order to participate (although if you want to, you can!)
We encourage you to cheerlead others' work by commenting and sharing. A kind comment or tag can go a long way!
The main (SFW) prompts are open to all ages, but you must be 18+ to create NSFW works.
SFW works can be up to T-rated. They can contain swearing, light substance use (alcohol, smoking), mild suggestive language, "fade-to-black" or implied sex, but can't contain explicit sex or graphic violence.
NSFW works can be M- or E-rated, and must be properly tagged with kinks and relevant content warnings. Please take care to warn for topics like suicidal ideation and suicide, especially if you are exploring them more graphically than they are shown in the text of the game.
We do not allow the use of generative AI for this event.
FAQs
Can I combine days or prompts? Yes, you can do that if you wish. You can also combine SFW and NSFW prompts.
Can I include other pairings? Yes, OT3s and polycules are fine, as long as there is a focus on the Fran/Adrian dynamic.
Can I interpret the prompts broadly/loosely? The prompts are meant as inspiration, and you're welcome to interpret them how you want to! We've tried to make them open ended to give creators the option to make them their own.
Can I combine the Fradrian Week prompts with prompts from other fan events (like AA bingo)? As long as it's okay with the organizers of the other event(s), we're fine with that!
Have fun, and happy creating!

AMNESTY
During amnesty challenges, you can post works for any of the challenges we've had to date: ( Complete list of prompts )
Both reports have a random "Any Challenge" button, and the Creator Report also has a random "Unfilled Challenge" button.
Of course, you're always welcome to post multiple works to any challenge if you finish them before the challenge closes, but that isn't always possible. So dust off those unfinished works and half-formed ideas -- now is the time!
In amnesty rounds, include the challenge you are posting for in the subject line of your post (eg, Garden: The Untamed: Icons: Bunnies!).
Each work created for this challenge should be posted as a new entry to the comm. Posting starts now and continues up until the challenge ends at 4pm Pacific Time on Saturday, 1 November. No sign-up required.
Mods will tag your work with fandom, media and challenge. When you've posted entries to three consecutive challenges, you will earn a name tag, and we'll go back and tag all your previous entries with your name.
All kinds of fanworks in all fandoms are welcome. Please have a look at our guidelines before you play. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to contact a mod. And if you have any suggestions for future challenges, you can leave them in the comments of this post.

Chilling Adventures of Sabrina/Doctor Who Drabble
Oct. 20th, 2025 06:03 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (TV 2018), Doctor Who (2005)
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Characters: Missy (Doctor Who)
Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Fusion, Drabble
Summary:
Missy thinks she can make this work to her advantage
Humans and their superstitions were so easy to manipulate, Missy decided. She was alluring, seductive, beautiful even, so of course this simpleton of a man thought she had to be a witch able to grant his fantasies into reality.
Only… sometimes superstitions had a grain of truth. This Zelda and Hilda seemed to have her confused for someone with significant power, and Missy could take advantage of that while studying their occult energies.
After all, it might prove to be the way to get her decrepit TARDIS back to functionality, preferably before the Doctor stumbled over her in this time.
