( All Roads Lead To Capitol )

Here's the breakdown:

* Slipping Through (co-written with totally4ryo was nominated once again over at Children of Time Awards Round 2 for Torchwood WIP and Torchwood Crossover, and was nominated at forbiddenawards in Round 10 for "The Raunchy Rift Award" (best crossover, LOL).

* Different Sort of Science was also nominated over on forbiddenawards in Round 10 for "The Kiss and Bang Award" (best slash).

* To Days To Come was nominated at Children of Time Awards Round 2 for Jack/Ianto.

* Footnotes was also nominated at Children of Time Awards Round 2 for Torchwood WIP. No idea if that one will be staying, since there's a possibility that it counts as 'two nominations in one category'.


Thank you so much to those who nominated us!

children_time is handing out their banners! I got a stopwatch. *grin*






The second round opens tomorrow for nominees!

Title: To Days To Come

Author's Notes: Thanks so much to my gorgeous betas totally4ryo and katestamps, who are my sounding boards, my muses, and people who listen to my insane ramblings and go, "Uh, you can't do that, crazy." I love you, girls! *hugs*

Okay. So here's the deal. Yes, I am writing a sequel to Different Sort of Science. However, I've also signed up to do redismycolour, which I'm totally stoked about. The only problem is that I'm going to follow the same idea I used with horizonssing, which means you're going to be getting 31 one shots. Which doesn't leave me a lot of time to work on the sequel.

I wanted to start posting the sequel around this time, New Year's Eve/Day ideally, but it would be unfair to post one chapter and then leave everyone hanging for a month. So the muses wrote this lovely little bridge piece, which was inspired by one of shayasar's manips, who graciously allowed me to use it as a bookend.

Now. I've ranted enough. On with the fic! And look for Different Kind of Magic starting in February!
