Lady Margaret Hall (Oxford)

Other institutions admitting women in the 1910s:

Inspired by the Gwen/Rhys Mr & Mrs Smith send-up/rip-off/homage/tribute in my last post, and a bit angsty.

Length – 350 words

( She’s Torchwood Field Agent Gwen Williams, she’s catching and shooting aliens for a living, and she comes home to him, battered, bruised, burnt and sometimes bitten, far more often than she used to. )

A selection of wallpapers made with the S3 promo pics. Some blatant abuse of the Gene Genie's line about guns, so perhaps be careful about where you use a couple of them ;)

Grab away, feedback is loved and appreciated :) Enjoy!

More of this 'verse behind the cut.

( Rose and Jack are still clothed. They’re standing near the bed, they each have one hand at a temple, the other at that little hollow on the back. Plenty of nerve endings there. Plenty of nerve endings that’re very sexually pleasurable to humans. Plenty of nerve endings with telepathic receptors, too. )

As I forgot to submit it to tw_epicontest, I'll have it myself ;)

My parents and I and some more of our family went to the Isle of Wight for the weekend. The location, right by the sea, was lovely, as was the weather. We went to Carisbrooke Castle (Charles I was imprisoned there, durind the English Civil War) and Osborne House (Queen Victoria's house, mainly during the summer). Here are the pictures I took!

( Jack wanted to lose himself in a man. He’d wanted that since he was twelve, but nothing more than a few kisses in dark corners had ever happened. If he was going to die tomorrow, he didn’t want that to have been the sum total of his experience with men. )

After the porny Jack manip, and the ensuing smut, here's Gwen sort of as Columbia.

I know it's not very sophisticated, but I think it's cute ;)

More of this 'verse behind the cut.

( Jack Harkness is bloody gorgeous, and she wants to have him all to herself, for a while…Rose has decided that she *wants* to know about telepathic sex with ships; sentient, alive, in your head timeships. )

So, amand_r and angstslashhope said:

But we really need Jack in a corset. You know we do. Season Four!

And that led to ( THIS, which is probably rated R/15 & now there are wallpapers! )
