Many happy returns to thisbluespirit!

I have managed to write birthday fic, which may be UNIT dating fic, or it may be me breaking the rule about never AUing S&S. Or both. Or neither.

Oh, and if you've saved any Teaspoon links between 26 September and yesterday, they probably point to completely different fics now; Teaspoon had to be reverted to a backup, and though at least some people (such as me!) have re-uploaded their stories it won't have been in the same order as before.

So I finally scraped together enough tropes for a line in trope_bingo. One of these made its debut in the Obscure and British Commentfest; the other four are new.

{ At AO3 } { At Teaspoon }

I handed Liz and Donna another fanfic cliché.

19. Liz / Ace — putting away the groceries. Suggested by daibhid_c. This was one of the randomly-generated pairings.

Author's notes: Yes, it's another alternate Season 7. I think, as well as the prompt, there's at least some lingering influence from the fic-substitution meme, where derekmetaltron suggested putting Jamie in Season 7.
Summary: The Earth has been saved from the Nestenes. But UNIT's scientific advisors really aren't getting on with each other.
