Small fandom pleasures
I had a need for fluff and so I wrote me some (plus banter and a smidgeon of angst and sex) from my nebulous Babylon 5 post-canon fixit future: A Nice Little House on Narn.
----
Today I discovered the existence of Murderbot Maladies, basically a whump / h/c event for May, but the list of prompts is AMAZING and I am going to reproduce it under the cut. As someone who has participated in h/c events basically since they have existed on LJ and similar, I can only say that this is perhaps the best prompt list I've seen, mixing as it does a number of serious h/c staples with such glorious inventions as "harpooned", "inhaled a drone", and "accidentally called Mensah 'Mom'".

This happens to be the one that made me crack up. I can see SecUnit handling many other hurts on this list (Surviving an Explosion, Acid Happened, Fell in a Ditch) much better. I wouldn't bet against it taking Gurathin out, either. "When you're high, you don't have to notice food."

"Inhaled a Drone" is the one I love so much I might have no choice but to write it.

Please do: it's hilarious. "Harpoon Incident" also sounds not only like something that would happen to SecUnit, but how it would refer to the whole mishegos afterward.
