Title: Inevitable
Author: professor pangaea
Fandom: Sherlock Holmes
Disclaimer: Mr. Holmes and the eminent Professor James Moriarty are now in the public domain, but of course I give ultimate credit and thanks for their existence to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
Summary: The immutability of the autumn, the inevitability of the spring.
Notes: Written to cheer up eponymous_rose; she gave me the prompt "Holmes, Moriarty and a tree". Thanks to lizbee for looking it over.

"Hello," said the Doctor. He waggled his eyebrows in a fashion that was meant to be sexy and yet mysterious. He was hindered by the fact that he really didn't have any eyebrows to speak of. The waggling was just drawing attention to that unfortunate fact.

"You realise that you're just making me notice that you've got no eyebrows to speak of, don't you?" River asked. She went back to recording the locations of pottery fragments into her datapad.

"Oh yeah," said the Doctor, deflating a bit. "I forgot again."

"Well," she said, drawing her stylus across the screen, "Even if you do seem a little too... fresh, your bone structure looks a bit more solid now. I won't have to be worried I'm going to break you in half anymore."

"We could test that hypothesis out," he replied, a little bit quickly. River glanced up at him, her mouth quirked upwards. "Er. Perhaps. At some point. After your very important and not at all useless work is completed for the day. Yes."

River looked back down at her datapad, but her smile only got wider.

"Meet me at my shuttle at 1400 hours, young man, and we'll discuss it." She looked up at him again, a serious expression on her face. "Oh, and don't forget the hand-cuffs."

Title: Lifetimes
Author: professor pangaea
Fandom: Doctor Who
Characters: Seventh Doctor, The Rani, The Master (Ainley)
Spoilers: None, as far as I can tell.
Summary: Once again, the Rani discovers why she should avoid associating with the Master. The Master discovers that there seems to be one subject he is not very logical about. The Doctor discovers how good the Rani is at programming her security system.
Notes: Erm. I think the term is "pointless and embarrassing". Also probably not as fun as the summary makes it out to be. ;___;

epilogue: And then Ace blows up a bunch of stuff and rescues the Doctor, probably. THE END.

Title: Infinite Probabilities
Author: professor pangaea
Fandom: Doctor Who
Characters: First Doctor, Susan, Koschei
Spoilers: None. Unless you count that one about the Doctor stealing the TARDIS and running away from his home planet. So... The War Games? Not really.
Notes: Thanks for betas and general "WRITING: YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG" from cesario and lizbee. Any awkward phraseology or excessive adverbiage that is left is obviously the result of my not paying attention to them. Also: I like to think that Susan and the Doctor travelled for several decades, at least, before meeting up with Ian and Barbara. Thus, I made this story.
Summary: "Our most glorious experiences are a kind of regret. Our regret is so sublime that we may mistake it for triumph. It is the painful, plaintively sad surprise of our Genius remembering our past lives and contemplating what is possible." -- Henry David Thoreau

Title: Tea and Variable Resistance
Author: professor pangaea
Fandom: Doctor Who
Characters: Tenth Doctor, Martha, Ian and Barbara (a bit)
Spoilers: 42, Blink, and extremely vague oldschool mentions, so vague, in fact, that they only really exist in my brain, but just in case anyone has access to that I mention the possibility.
Summary:The Doctor hadn't mentioned any third eyelids, but he hadn't mentioned quite a lot of other things either.

Title: Observational Analysis (The Even Bastards Have Brothers Remix)
Author: Professor Pangaea
Fandom: Sherlock Holmes
Disclaimer: Mr. Holmes is in the public domain, but as always, credit for his creation belongs to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
Notes: This piece is a remix of the short story The Other Brother, by serenissima (also known as killalla), and written for the Remix...Redux IV, organised by the wonderfully hardworking musesfool. Thanks must be extended to them both for the inspiration and opportunity that they provided, and an extra thanks to serenissima for her excellent remix of my story, Five Things That Never Happened to Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John H. Watson. Her remix can be found here: The Player of Games Remix
Summary: "All emotions ... were abhorrent to his cold, precise but admirably balanced mind. He was, I take it, the most perfect reasoning and observing machine that the world has seen."

Observational Analysis



As always, feedback and criticism are both sought after and cherished.

Since authors were revealed on Sunday, I can now lay claim to having written Observational Analysis, which really wasn't a mystery on account of the fact that there were only two authors who wrote Sherlock Holmes. However, even if there had been many, I fear this story would have been fairly obviously written by me. The name alone is a giveaway, but of course there's also the strongly repressed emotions, long silences, chronological messing about, Mycroft being a bastard, and of course, rampant gazing. Sigh.

Also, don't forget to read killalla's awesome remix of my story, namely Five Things That Never Happened to Mr. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson (The Player of Games Remix). And my lady, I thank you again for it.

Title: All Nature Is Our Satellite
Author: Professor Pangaea
Fandom: Sherlock Holmes
Disclaimer: Mr. Holmes is in the public domain, and I give thanks to both Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and to Henry David Thoreau for being such an inspiration to so many people, not least of all myself.
Notes: The text of Mr. Thoreau's journal entry used herein is not, unfortunately, from the fourteen volume 1906 edition published by Houghton Mifflin, but from the more recent Princeton edition. There are marked differences in punctuation in the two texts, but the words themselves are usually the same. Nevertheless, when and if I can locate a usable copy of the 1906 edition I shall be sure to emend the text of this story accordingly.

Especially as this story is unbetaed, feedback and criticism shall be much appreciated and cherished.

Title: Sub Rosa
Author: Professor Pangaea
Fandom: Sherlock Holmes
Disclaimer: Mr. Holmes and sundry other characters are now in the public domain, but of course I give ultimate credit and thanks for their existence to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
Summary: "One of the most attractive things about the flowers is their beautiful reserve. The truly beautiful and noble puts its lover, as it were, at an infinite distance, while it attends him more strongly than ever." -- Henry David Thoreau

Title: If Clothes Make The Man...
Author: Professor Pangaea
Fandom: Sherlock Holmes (Mary Russell)
Spoilers: A bit for The Beekeeper's Apprentice, plus slight mentions of events in A Monstrous Regiment of Women and The Game
Discliamer: Though Mr. Sherlock Holmes is in the public domain, Miss Mary Russell is most assuredly not, and so I let it be known that I do this not for profit but for love. I'm sure Laurie R. King would be slightly confounded at my take on her characters.
Notes: This is incredibly not-betaed, and in fact I've taken much more time on it than I meant to. Still, it is rather off the cuff (for me), and mostly written because the idea randomly sprang into my head one day and I thought, Someone should write that. But then I realised I was the only one who would ever do such a thing. Mostly finished to see it it would make cesario's head explode. And maybe a little bit of an eruption from lizbee. Also, I'm really not sure why I've titled this thing as I have done, but ah well.
