EXCHANGE INTERFACE

With hopefully a fifth to come...

fffc is a flashfic community that is running a challenge for their 10th Birthday. I'd never been involved before, but I signed up.

Every week they nominate fandoms (randomly, so far as I can tell) and sort people into teams and then get people to make fanworks for which points are assigned. So far, the two fandoms I could write for have been Star Trek and Batman. Neither of which I have written for a number of years now.

And now I'm 4K deep into a story that was only supposed to be 1K with an adventure and a mystery and I've been writing the bloody thing for four weeks and I am CROSS because I cannot seem to finish it and post it! We just hit Part III, which will hopefully be the solution.

Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply

Summary:

No dating for the Batman.

I'm half disappointed, half relieved that MCU hasn't come up. I might end up flooding the comm with all the stories that I'd suddenly be motivated to actually write from the sketchy notes/ideas I had for them once upon a time...

My exchange fics tend to fall into a pattern. The recip and a couple of others respond during the anonymous period, but no-one else. Then, after reveals, my usual readers come in and make up the bulk of the response.

title: Now A Diff'rent Measure Try
summary: As she follows the road that winds around the edge of the lake, Diana glimpses the boxy, modern house of glass and steel and thinks, Is this not purpose?
tags: Diana (Wonder Woman) & Alfred Pennyworth, Alfred Pennyworth & Bruce Wayne, Diana (Wonder Woman) & Bruce Wayne, Diana Prince (Wonder Woman), Alfred Pennyworth, Bruce Wayne, First Meetings, Friendship.
notes: For Apricot in the DCEU Exchange. I was hoping to write Part 2 with Diana and Bruce sparring, and Part 3 with Diana and Bruce sex, but that didn't happen this time. Maybe next DCEU story.

Waiting for the rarepairfest to do reveals...
