Summary: It's hench week at Ask a Manager!

Reccer's Notes: Ask a Manager is an advice column for workplace issues, and Hench is a comic about henchmen. This hilarious story is a series of good advice for both evil henchmen and people who manage evil henchmen, dealing with all sorts of workplace hazards ranging from the aftermath of sex pollen to how to manage someone who is using their evil to annoy their own team and beyond. It's amazing and funny whether you know either canon or not.

SGA: Rodney's Bad Day by boochicken

[personal profile] mific posting in [community profile] fancake
Fandom: Stargate Atlantis'
Characters/Pairings: John Sheppard/Rodney McKay, Ronon Dex, Teyla Emmagan, Elizabeth Weir, Carson Beckett, Radek Zelenka
Rating: Explicit eventually
Length: ~33,000
Content Notes: no AO3 warnings, mentions of blood
Creator Links: boochicken on LJ
Themes: Crack treated seriously, Friends to lovers, First time, Vampires, Action/adventure

Summary: none

Reccer's Notes: Rodney gets turned into a vampire by rogue technology on a mission. This is crack taken seriously as there's no fantasy element, and for the initial part Rodney himself is adamant that vampires don't exist. The story takes this premise and plays it out in a canon setting, with Rodney having to develop coping methods for the downsides - like bursting into flame in sunlight (his super sunblock helps a bit), and accessing a supply of blood. Apart from the blood drinking and risk of immolation (and not having a pulse) he's very much his usual self, and, as ever, even manages to save the day despite these problems. It's a delightful story with lots of plot and action, and a friends to lovers romance with John. Gripping, and very well written!

Rating: Gen
Length: 4,700 words podfic is 29min 10s
Creator Links: written by always_a_slut_for_hc
Podfic done by PolynomialPandemic
Theme: Crack Treated Seriously, angst (with a happy ending), crack, fix-it, humour

Summary: The Jedi Council was nervous. The Jedi Council was very, very nervous, so much so that the usual meditation-and-releasing-emotions-into-the-Force shtick had failed and High General Mace Windu had broken out the spotchka.

If anything called for drinks, it was discovering that your whole Order was sitting on a primed thermal detonator - well. More like a million of them.

Reccer's Notes: A bit less Crack-Treated-Seriously and a bit more Serious-Treated-Crackily. Starts out super funny, veers into heartbreaking, and then swings right back to being funny again. I love the attention to detail that makes every single character (and there are a lot) feel unique and in character even if they only get a couple lines. The Clone Commanders chat is also super fun and is a feature I've seen used before but never so well with so many characters.

Theme: Crack Treated Seriously

Summary: In this house we respect the Jedi Order, the Force, and our Very Holy General Kenobi (peace be upon his beard).

Obi-Wan is back on Coruscant. Wary, famished, and deeply not ready for what’s waiting.

He thought the clones would hate him. Instead?
They built shrines.
They quote his sass like scripture.
And someone really needs to stop printing stickers.

Featuring: false sightings, reverent memes, emotional breakdowns, and a commander who never stopped waiting.

Reccer's Notes: A very fun fic which mixes modern media fandom things (e.g. the clones have a kind of Discord chat), a fix-it AU (well...some things are fixed, anyway), and heartfelt feelings platonic and otherwise.

[#287 | Hot Water] Challenge Post

Challenge 287:
HOT WATER
Hot water is one of those things many of us take for granted. Just turn the tap and there it is, ready to heat up a little further for a nice hot bath, fill the sink to clean something, or take a nice hot bath! But it’s not always that simple. In a lot of places, hot water’s not that easy to come by, and even when it is, there’s a fine line between comfortably warm and far too hot.

In the metaphorical sense, “hot water” refers more to the latter than the former! Someone who’s in hot water has found themselves in some kind of trouble. No matter how nice the water seemed originally, it’s getting a little too hot…

Write a story about hot water (in either sense of the phrase).

BONUS GOAL: Sparkling Skies

If your submission features stars, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!


Challenge ends Monday, January 19 at 9:00PM EST.
• Post submissions as new entries using the template in the profile
