You will be allowed to choose up to three stories written for this challenge. ANY three stories. There is no “first claimed first served” rule. If you sign up here it doesn’t mean YOU HAVE TO CREATE AN ART in the end. If none of the stories will be interesting for you, you can drop out anytime you wish :)

You think you can send your characters on a journey in 10,000 words? Join the Journey Big Bang!

If you also like this idea it’s the right place for you! A Journey Big Bang 3.0!
However this round will be a little different. I won’t have (most probably) access to my computer in summer, so I’m changing the date of the beginning of the sign ups. The rest of the dates I’ve left unchanged. And there will be simultaneously done a pod-fic round. I’ve done a pod-fic round in casestory last year and it was a huge success, so I decided to try it here as well.

Under the cut, there is a set of rules for the Pod Fic Round that may be modified in the process, because this is the first time I attempt this kind of challenge here. Any comments/suggestions will be very appreciated!

Title: Am I Awake Or Am I Still Dreaming, Chapter 1
Author:ella_rose88
Rating:PG (or higher not sure!)
Word count: 2,712 (so far)
Fandom/s: Merlin and Doctor Who
Characters/Pairings: Gwen, Arthur, Merlin, Gaius, Elyan, Leon, Morgana, Agravaine, Doctor (Eleven), Rory, Amy, OC,  Arthur/Gwen and Amy/Rory.
Spoilers/Warnings: I started writing this before series 4 of Merlin aired, though I knew some character spoilers and story lines. So it does contain some characters and some elements from episodes 1 and 2 of series 4.  Other than that this is purely a story from my imagination!
Disclaimer: I don’t own Merlin or Doctor Who. They belong to BBC and Shine!  
Summary: Arthur and Merlin get mysteriously kidnapped and find themselves in two deadly situations and it’s up to Gwen to go rescue them. Lucky for Gwen she finds three unlikely companions to help her with her mission.  For they are the only ones that have knowledge that will help them escape certain death at the hands of Morgana and a very strange and mysterious man. Will they succeed or fail and be lost forever…
Author notes: This was written for the journeystory challenge in 2011. I decided to do a cross-over of Merlin and Doctor Who. This story is set sometime before 4x03 of Merlin and between series 5 and 6 of Doctor Who. Firstly, I want to thank rubberglue and rainbow_connec for encouraging me to sign up for this challenge.

I would love to say a huge thank you to sophielou21 for helping me develop the plot, listening to my many rants and for just being there to support me.

Thanks also must go to jontinf for creating my lovely artwork and the amazing withkissesfour for beta’ing this fic for me!

As always comments and feedback is very much encouraged and appreciated!

The masterlist is finally here :)

Title: End Of The World.
Author(s): Sententia
Artist(s): dragon_gypsy
Fandom(s): Switch
Type: (Gen, Het, Femmeslash or Slash) Gen
Rating: PG
Word Count: 34,000.
Characters/Pairings: Takei and Shiba.
Warnings/Spoilers: For the entire series and the official '5 years later' doujinshi done by Naked Ape.
Summary: It was the end of the world as Takei knew it, and he was feeling ... wait, how did the rest of the song go again? Takei returns to work after Shingo's betrayal, only to be hit be a far greater one. Both Shiba and Takei struggle with the consequences.

Author’s Notes: Whew, what a journey! This is the longest thing I've written, and it really shows. When I planned this fic out it was only supposed to be 10,000 words (which is still huge for me), but it blossomed into something much longer and unexpected. I've learnt so much in the process, and while it's not very good, it's a huge stepping stone that means next time I try something this length it will be that little bit better. Things like plot, chapters, development over time - shesh! For a short fic writer, these were pretty new and exciting and scary! This fic wasn't originally meant to be broken up into chapters as the plan was for them to be somewhat connected segments, but that was before it took on a life of its own. As a result, the chapter lengths are all over the place. The last chapter was 8000 words before I chopped it in half, while some of the middle ones are only 1700 words long. Thanks so, so much to the mod!
