Feb. 8th, 2009 11:46 pmYeah, I just signed up for
tardis_bigbang. Because lord knows the obscenely plotty Rose!fic I'm working on isn't enough; no, I have a burning desire to write another 20,000+ words in the Whoniverse.
But hey, the plotbunny bit hard.
So: In 1919, at the start of the Irish War of Independence, Harriet Derbyshire was killed while investigating Torchwood 4, which went AWOL after the Easter Rising. In 2009, UNIT pulls a dying man out of the Irish Sea with a one-word message: Torchwood. Martha joins up with Jack's team in Cardiff to track down the errant branch of the organization at last -- and its mysterious leader, who's a bit too familiar with wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff herself. Also known as Oh Dear God What Am I Getting Myself Into Now.
740 words down, 19,260+ words to go. Featuring post-"Exit Wounds" Torchwood + Martha (+ possibly Mickey), the Doctor may well make an appearance (as he is wont to do), and I'm trying to figure out a way to work Donna in somehow as well. Plus, um, the leader of Torchwood 4, who is NOT an OC. But come ON, you totally know Torchwood Dublin would have gone all Sinn Fein after 1916, and then the Irish War of Independence happened, and then it went underground NEVER TO BE HEARD FROM AGAIN (UNTIL NOW).
I think I'm gonna have fun with this. Or possibly die. One or the other.
