RIP editor Chris Willingham

Another loss in the Ten Thirteen family -- editor Chris Willingham passed away aged 74. He had worked on all four of Ten Thirteen's shows, most importantly in all thee of Millennium's seasons (16 episodes, among them Lamentation). He also worked on The X-Files (7 episodes during season 8, including This Is Not Happening), Harsh Realm (2 episodes) and The Lone Gunmen (pilot). He also worked on productions led by Ten Thirteen alumni (Morgan & Wong's Space: Above and Beyond, Howard Gordon's […]

Duchovny/Carter podcast

After the Gillian Anderson interview a few months ago, David Duchovny received Chris Carter on his podcast, to talk The X-Files and more. This time there's a video version, and thanks to advancing AI and autogenerated subtitles it's easier to pull quotes. I am also doing this to help people who prefer a text version instead of audio, or people who might want to automatically translate this page into their own language. Overall a very enjoyable exchange with plenty of info. However, there […]

Harsh Realm in HD

HARSH REALM in HD! Chris Carter's short-lived show (aired during season 7 of #TheXFiles) is only available in a standard definition DVD, and that is unlikely to change. However, ironically, thanks to AI algorithms, a fan remastered it entirely in HD (upscale, colour balances, cleaning). The result is impressive. Treat yourself to some of the best things Ten Thirteen did -- in particular the first three episodes are like an extended pilot. 25 years later, #HarshRealm proves to be very […]

In honor of the 30th birthday of In Utero, here's me playing a bit of Dumb. Krist Novoselic was the first bassist who made me want to pick up the instrument. It wasn't even for his playing, just for his vibes, so I tried to bring those, as well as combining his bass part with the cello part here.

Forgot that I did this but I just updated it: The master post of my favorite fanfic that I’ve written in my life, for anyone who happens to be interested for whatever reason #thewalkingdead #bethyl #dishonored #corvosider #harshrealm #bioshockinfinite

(God, I still ADORE “Heaven’s So Big There Ain’t No Need to Look Up”, it’s been long enough that I can read it like I didn’t write it and so funny and sexy and sad and happy) https://www.pillowfort.social/posts/621623

dynamicsymmetry: Sunny, what fic should I read by you if I wanna read fic by you? (master post)

Because I've written, uh, a lot. I've written 97 fics in the TWD fandom alone. Here are some of the fics - across fandoms - which I would shove at anyone who asked me the above.I'll be updating this as needed. [READ-MORE]Harsh Realm Heaven's So Big There Ain't No Need to Look Up | Rated E | Tom Hobbes/Mike Pinocchio | 22,558 words | complete Two and a half years after the war ended and the game was won, and two years after Mike Pinocchio disappeared without a word, Tom Hobbes comes looking for him. The reunion doesn't start the way he expected. Then nothing else goes the way he expected, either. (Author's note: tiny dead fandom from a canon no one remembers but I wrote this fic over the span of 24 hours and fucking Christ I love it more than I can express, it's def one of my very faves. If you want to look at it I don't think knowledge of the canon is super necessary; all you need to know is these are two soldiers who went to war against a dictator inside a computer game and one of them was constantly a grouch about the other one) Grace Upon This Road Less Traveled | Rated E | Tom Hobbes/Mike Pinocchio, Mike Pinocchio/Original Character(s) | 23,887 words | complete Long after Tom has given up on Mike telling him what happened to give him his scars in the time they were apart, Mike surprises him with the whole story. And it’s both worse and better than he ever imagined. (Author’s note: Three years after the fic above, a nearly identical creative storm overtook me and I did it again: 22k+ words in about 24 hours. I love this one so much. It’s also much darker, please pay attention to the tags. But while it starts in the darkest place it’s really a story of a journey back into the light. Complete with Mary Oliver poetry because of course.) DishonoredWhen It's Right It'll Find You | Rated E | Corvo Attano/The Outsider, Corvo Attano & The Outsider | 37,702 words | complete It's been a few thousand years since the Outsider was human, and now that he is again, he doesn't feel like he's very good at it. So when he doesn't know what else to do, he goes to find the one real friend he has left.  And then things happen. (Author's Note: This is also legitimately among my very favorites of anything I've ever written.) All Our Tomorrows | Rated E | Corvo Attano/The Outsider, Corvo Attano & The Outsider | 20,692 words | ongoing The Outsider is human, Corvo is falling in love with him, and it's all kind of a confusing mess. But everything will be all right in the end. The important thing is that we try.  (A companion to When It's Right It'll Find You, of snippets, missing scenes, and continuations in different POVS.) I've Found My Place, I'm Safe and Sound | Rated E | Corvo Attano/The Outsider, Corvo Attano/Emily Kaldwin | 179,340 words | ongoing Emily Kaldwin is on the throne, Dunwall is rebuilding, and Corvo Attano desperately wants to move on. Of course he can’t. Of course when he tries he finds himself moving in some absolutely horrifying directions. (READ THE TAGS/WARNINGS FOR THE LOVE OF GOD) Everything I Love is Out to Sea | Rated E | Corvo Attano/Callista Curnow | 32,387 words | complete  Weeks after the end of the Interregnum, Corvo Attano is struggling to help his daughter begin her reign and rebuild her city, all while wrestling with his own ghosts. He's not the only one haunted. (My attempt at writing an aromantic sexual relationship based primarily on companionship and friendship, I really like how it came out.) The Walking Dead I'll Be Yours For a Song | Rated E | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 381,765 words | complete In a small town where he doesn't expect to stay long, Daryl Dixon comes upon a girl walking by the side of the road at two in the morning, soaked to the skin. He could offer to drive her home. But he very much wants to not seem like a creep. He also doesn’t want to just leave her there.  He has no idea what he's getting into.  (Author's Note: I legit think this is the best thing of any kind I've ever written) Everything Where it Belongs | Rated E | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 223,627 words | complete It's been months since Grady, and Beth is haunted by the spectre of Daryl shot dead right before her eyes - and haunted even more by the conviction that it was all her fault. But he isn't quite as dead as he was supposed to be. And she's not sure which is worse. (Author's Note: imo second best thing I've written, and for the love of god read the tags) Safe Up Here With You | Rated E | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 70,260 words | complete On a return trip to Grady, Daryl and Aaron make a discovery Daryl never would have imagined and never would have wanted to: Beth survived. And doesn't believe she did.  Of course Daryl believes he's the only one who can bring her back. And they can't go home until he does. (Author's Note: third best thing) Your Place in the Family of Things | Rated E | Maggie Greene/Daryl Dixon | 32,665 words | completeA year after Glenn's death, Maggie is building a life for herself and her infant son at the Hilltop. It's working. She's making it work. But in a way she can't define and can't escape, she's alone. She's in pain. And she's not the only one.The Good Stars | Rated M | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 316,886 words | ongoing The world has gone to hell, the dead are walking, and Daryl Dixon is focused purely on keeping himself and his brother alive - until he performs a possibly foolish act of rescue, which will have consequences far greater and further-reaching than he ever could have imagined. (Author's Note: giant canon rewrite) Howl | Rated E | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 468, 715 words | ongoing (god help me) A year after the mysterious slaughter of her entire family, Beth Greene is no closer to finding those responsible, and no one will believe her when she insists they weren't human. But when she's saved by - and proceeds to save - a monster of a very different kind, she finds herself drawing close to her goal in ways she never expected.  And he might be the most unexpected thing of all. Louder Than Sirens, Louder Than Bells | Rated E | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 3344 words | complete Days after they ran from the funeral home, Daryl keeps going back to the doorway where he stood and listened to Beth sing. He's starting to think about that room and about walking into it. About what they might do in there. But he can't get her song out of his head.I Bet You Didn't Know Someone Could Love You This Much | Rated E | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 10,423 words | complete Daryl's back from hunting earlier than expected, with a prize to show off to Beth. Throw in an unexpectedly open door, weeks of tension, a very different kind of showing off, and a decision to not walk away, and... Well. Watch what happens.And I'm Crashing Into You | Rated E | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 6588 words | complete When Beth came back alive, everything pretty was worn out of her. But that doesn't mean she doesn't miss it. It doesn't mean she doesn't miss what she's lost. And it doesn't mean she doesn't want Daryl to help her find it again.If the Stars Are Eternal So Are You and I | Rated T | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 2713 words | complete  "Oh", and what might have come after. (Author's Note: First thing I ever wrote in this fandom) And the Bright Star Falls Behind | Rated T | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 7478 words | completeThey don't plan it. It's not something they mean to do. But starting the night Beth comes to the ASZ, she's going to bed with Daryl Dixon, and she's never slept as well as she does when she sleeps with him.We'll Scream Our Names to the Heavens and the Plains | Rated T | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 1682 words | completeLater, much later, they tell stories about the first night she came back to him. The question is which one is true. The other question is whether it matters.You Threw Your Hair Back and Sang Along | Rated E | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 2544 words | completeSome precious spare time, even more precious privacy, and an impulse in just the right direction. But Beth has a slightly surprising request, and Daryl's not sure he can handle it. (spoiler alert: he totally can)I Will Be Your Honey Bee | Rated E | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 4301 words | completeAfter a few weeks of nothing much except kissing, Beth has established to her own satisfaction that she wants more. She's not going to push too hard. But she might not have to. And "satisfaction" might be a whole other thing.One More Time You Say Never Stop | Rated E | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon | 1544 words | completeA long dry spell on the run with the group and finally some precious time alone - and Daryl is using it to be an complete asshole (written to Bethyl Smut Week prompt: "ALL OF IT").Got a Taste for the Cherry, I Just Need to Take a Bite | Rated E | Beth Greene/Daryl Dixon/Rick Grimes | 77,364 words | kinda complete?Rick Grimes doesn't think about how he doesn't get laid anymore. Then there's Beth Greene, a sundress, a rainstorm, and he can't think about anything else. It's pretty much all downhill from there.Bioshock Infinite All the Worlds Aflame | Rated T | Elizabeth/Daisy Fitzroy | 2264 words | completeSome choices are illusions. But some mean everything.Enslaved: Odyssey to the WestAgainst the Wind | Rated T | Trip/Monkey | 7590 words | completePost-game.
