More TMA things

I just listened to that bloopers reel from the post-season 4 TMA extras.

1. I cracked up. Usually I don't find this sort of thing funny, but oh boy, yes.

2. Michael's voice actor (Luke Booys) has a really nice voice. I mean, I already liked it (and oh man is that casting ever perfect), but hearing it out of context (and without the effects) was very surprising. I guess I didn't expect him to sound the way that he sounds. It's whatever the audio equivalent of "aesthetically pleasing, but in an unexpected way" would be.

He's involved in some kind of sketch comedy thing called Casual Violence. Maybe I'll check that out later? When I have a moment. After poking through some descriptions, it seems like it would either be very much my thing or very much not, and it's hard to tell which it'd be without actually jumping in.

3. I discovered that my mp3 player downloaded Season 5 of TMA without my knowledge. I'm pretty sure I turned that off - generally I prefer not to have things download without me explicitly telling it to do so - but I can't help but be very mildly amused by that. It's fitting that it'd be TMA doing that. And it wouldn't be too hard to spin it into an ~oooh, spooky~ TMA-style statement. Most likely the Web, of course. ...Hold on, is this a fic idea?

Multifandom Drabble Reveals (mostly TMA + some Witch Door)

Fics for the Multifandom Drabble Exchange have been revealed! Yay! The collection for this round has over 330 fandoms, wow.

I wrote two works:

☆ Borrowing a Door for Fencesit. The Witch Door, Katariina/Tzofiya, 400 words, G/0+. Snapshots in the course of a relationship.

☆ Happenstance for laughs_in_distortion. The Magnus Archives, Gerry Keay & Michael Distortion, 100 words, G/0+. Gerry has a chance encounter after acquiring a Leitner through dubious means.

And I received two Magnus Archives works! Voila:

☆ Wasteland Waiting by LookingForDroids. Adelard Dekker, 100 words, G/0+. A fragmentary audio recording, found among the personal effects of one Gertrude Robinson.

☆ My heart is thrilled by the still of your hand (It's how I know now that you understand) by laughs_in_distortion. Sasha James/Michael Distortion, 200 words, T. Sasha thinks of her encounter with Michael.

There were a lot of TMA fics in the collection for this round, and I enjoyed all of them (except the one that I didn't read due to spoilers).

Of the fics that weren't written for me, my favourite was:

☆ Memento Mori by LookingForDroids. Original statement giver, 300 words, G/0+. Statement of Sarah Chandler, regarding an archaeological text.
