Title: In Summer's Parching Heat
Rating: G
Pairings/Characters: Olivia/Kristen (pre-femslash), Jon(/"Stephen"), John Oliver, Wyatt

Teen-through-young-adult AU: Jon[athan] and "Stephen" are gay dog groomers in California, while Olivia and company are eighth graders nearby. Oh, and a cute new British kid just transferred into their class. And Kristen maybe likes him?? Drama!

Wildly out-of-season, I know, but I needed a last-minute fill for the hc_bingo round 2 card, prompt "heat stroke."

( 'I've just moved here from England, so you're welcome to ask me any questions you have in preparation for our inevitable re-conquest of your charming little nation. Cheerio.' )

After a couple years of noninspiration (or at least, nonmotivation), I finally finished a new vid :D

Disclaimer: #NotIntendedToBeAFactualStatement. Characters belong to the Report. Names of real people are used in a fictitious context, and all dialogue, actions, and content are products of the author's imagination only.

Ficlets written for a series of requests: what happens when people from various fakenews AUs cross paths. Featuring the liberalverse, the happy!verse, Jon's Beck incarnation, and the universe where Wyatt hosts the 11:30 timeslot.

( 'Ooh, is this your Jon? He's just like mine! He's so cute, isn't he? Come and sit! Can I play with your hair?' )

Title: Afterwards, Wyatt Was Never Able To Look At Salad Tongs The Same Way Again
Series: TDS
Characters/Pairings: Wyatt/Kristen/John-O/Sam/Jason(/Aasif/???)

The prompt demanded something NC-17. This is what I ended up writing instead.

( Her hair fanned out along Wyatt's shoulder, where she had started to doze off without even bothering to shed her thigh-high leather boots first. )

Title: Four Times Aasif Shared His Food (And One Time Someone Shared With Him)
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Foreplay
Characters/pairings: Aasif/Jason, Aasif/Sam/Jason, John Oliver, Rob Riggle, Jon, Larry, Wyatt, "Stephen"
Disclaimer: Follow the fake cut.

Summary: Pretty much what it says on the tin. Five stories about Aasif, the whole crew of correspondents, various types of food, and an Important Life Lesson about sharing.

Aasif's movie isn't out yet, but IMDb has the specs, and there's a nice article here that talks about the food. Also, special thanks to sirdrakesheir and canadian_plant for yelling at me to get this finished.

( 'Are you trying to intimidate me with the same routine we used on Anderson Cooper this afternoon? Because it doesn't work when I know you. Larry, you got that shirt at Nordstrom's. Wyatt, that's not a gang sign, it's American Sign Language for 'algebra'.' )
