RIP, Mary Travers and Henry Gibson—Plus, Fannish Items

Mary Travers—from Peter, Paul, and Mary—has passed away, at the age of 72, after a battle with leukemia. I only know her because of Puff the Magic Dragon—here’s a clip of that. I used to watch that movie when I was little. May she rest in peace.

Henry Gibson (perhaps best known from Laugh-In) also passed away, also after a battle with cancer. He was 73. May he also rest in peace.

There’s another new trailer for Merlin.

Currently trying to think of a plot/idea for a fanfic using the prompts from spook_me. Anyone else have any ideas or requests using any one of those? Just for Doctor Who. If you missed it in all my posts yesterday, here’s a repost of what I was assigned. The creature prompt is Mad Scientist. (The Doctor has the hair for it, at least) The two secret prompts (using the covers of pulp novels) are Death Watch and Donovan’s Brain. I’m going to be digging through the TV Tropes page for Mad Scientist in a few minutes.

Edit: As I mentioned yesterday, with that link to Donovan's Brain, it keeps saying Forbidden when you click on it. However, if you cut off the url after /sf/, and then click on sfmisc, and from there click on bantam_819.jpg, you should see it.

Fic: No—Not The Fuzzy Handcuffs!

Title: No—Not The Fuzzy Handcuffs!
Author: calliopes_pen
Rating: PG-13
Fandom: Doctor Who
Word Count: 502 words
Summary: The Doctor thinks Jack is corrupting his TARDIS, and should face the consequences.
Author’s Notes: This was written for yamx, as a drabble incentive for the Support Stacie Auction. The prompt was this: "Jack annoys Nine and has to face the consequences. *g* (Can be Jack/Nine or Jack, Nine or include Rose or be undetermined, I'm not fussy. *g*)" I do believe this is the closest I can get to smut. It was supposed to be an innocent conversation about how the TARDIS shouldn’t be corrupted by Jack, and it just went off somewhere else. Thanks to seandc for both causing it to go off track, and for beta reading. It’s Jack/Nine.
