Christmas In July Socmed AU: Lucy tries to organise the Christmas In July dinner and the group is not helpful at all.

Author's note: Yes, Karl knowingly baked a face hugger roast on purpose as he loves to be a dramatic bitch 🤣

“Think of it,” Garcia said softly, as they stepped into the main part of the theater, “on October 22, you’ll finally be Mrs. Lucy Flynn.”

His voice sent shivers through Lucy’s body, and she glanced up at her fiancé with warm eyes. “I cannot wait, Mr. Garcia Flynn,” she returned.

thank you @battleshipgarcy for the idea for this one!!

Timeless re-rewatch - s1e02 (because I have no willpower)

Th Assassination of Abraham Lincoln: so a lot of the US eras/events that Timeless visited, I didn't know much about, being a Brit. However, I did know a fair bit about Abraham Lincoln's end which helped in this ep.

As someone with a keen interest in historical fashion and an occasional costume maker, I love that we get to see Jiya helping Lucy into her 1860s undergarments 👍

Paperweights - you think Connor? 😆

I do love the Timeless intro with the date travelled to each ep featured. Simple but effective.

I like the plotline with Rufus (or Denzel Washington 😁) and the soldiers of colour.

First sighting of Karl, yay! Followed by the the world's worst Irish accent and the world's worst game of Operation 😆

Lucy goes tovthe train station and gets a date for the evening, but there's still more chemistry in the following scene with Flynn, even when they are yelling at each other 😁

Love that dress on Lucy, really want to make a cosplay of that one day 😍

I was unaware of the plot to kill Grant and Seward alongside Lincoln, so that was interesting to learn on first viewing.

The show is certainly not afraid of making Flynn the definitive bad guy at this point, making him kill Abraham Lincoln sermed a bold move! I love that Lucy managed to foil his attempts to change the timeline by killing , even though she's about half his size! The looks on both of their faces when he bursts in though 😱

"I wish I could have saved your father" "There was nothing you could have done" Guilt trip!

The paperweights seem to be working well 😁

I love the looks at the revised histories that they do in most eps and how members of the timeteam sometimes appear in them.

Double bombshell for Lucy at the end 😱😱 She deals with having a sudden fiance she's never met before way better than I would have done!

Starting to get bad vibes about Carol Preston there too 😒

Friday August 23

shades: pics of the day:

From Voyage fan site on YouTube

I confess I did/do have quite a thing for the actor playing Robert Todd Lincoln (Neal Bledsoe) in this episode and I think quite a lot is said in the scene (from 1.44) where he walks directly to Lucy to say that his father is dead. Her reaction and reaching for his hand rather hint to some feelings that have been addressed well in fan fiction. I love all their scenes together.

And now with us, Chapter 26 of TRLT!!!!!

The Road Less Traveled

Chapter 26: Quite The Team

Word count = 14,799

Lucy looks forward to returning to the safe house to finally reunite with her sister, but she and Garcia run into some complications on the way.

Notes:

It's been since last November since a new chapter was published. If you'd like to read a "Previously on TRLT" recap, click here.

As always, kudos are wonderful, and comments bring me so much joy. I thank you in advance, and will reply to your comments on AO3 as soon as I can 😊

I keep the tentative "publish to AO3" dates up-to-date on TRLT's AO3 page, on battleshipgarcy.com, as well as in this pinned post on Tumblr. The plan is to publish a new chapter in October, November, and December. Then (🤞) one chapter every couple of weeks starting in February 2025 until the story's final chapter.

All remaining chapters are written, and only need to go through the editing process. And I so cannot wait to bring them to you ❤

Hello everyone, everywhere, it's a bit cooler here in my part of the UK today and a welcome relief. Hope your day goes as you would wish it to.

Riya + Karl

Rufus and Jiya are happily married...right? Karl is very much not involved in a love triangle...right? Two men, one woman...usually trouble follows.

Karl and Jiya work together and he finds her to be very annoying. Sticking her nose in where it doesn't belong. But he has to give her credit for bragging about her husband and his speakeasy, otherwise he wouldn't have informed Flynn to invest in it. Maybe she's not a bad shadow to have around...

Fanfic Rec List (mostly Timeless)

Since starting this blog, I created 24 fanfic sketchnotes & I can now create a mosaic that covers nearly a square meter. So, in celebration of all these amazing stories I got to recommend, join me in this (massive) compilation post with links to all the stories & the sketchnotes (for more detail on my recommendations). I categorized the stories and I wish to celebrate all you amazing writers & artists today! Thank you for sharing your stories & art.

I hope you forgive the massive amount of namedropping I am about to do. (Also: I love reading the responses when people see my sketchnotes - so feel free to respond, sent me a note or engage in conversations :-) ). I’m also always on the lookout for more stories to read: I particularly like found family, recovery, mission fic, general or rare pair stories & maturity in characters & conversations. I like adults leaving teen drama behind and dealing with things like the adults they are. Angst is a favorite too, and I enjoy the multiverse of AUs. (Honestly: I’m a pretty eclectic reader).

Timeless

The show that pulled me back into fandom & fanfic & to all you wonderful people. The full list is under a read-more, cause this post got LONG.

Historical / Mission

The Only Way Out by @sallyexactly

Author’s summary: Chinatown leaves the team shattered and grieving, but their only option is to stumble forward. To save the world, they'll need strength of character they didn't know they had, to defeat depths of evil like they've never seen. Meanwhile, they need to find a way to decide their own future, not give up hope... and save the fighting for the actual bad guys. It's honestly a toss-up which of those will be hardest.

This story is my headcanon of how the series ended. It is long (300000+ words) but well-worth it. It's got history, slow and mature development and an intelligent resolution. I reread it frequently and although I have wanted to capture my response in a (series of) sketchnote, I never managed it to my satisfaction. The story is beautiful and feels cathartic (and well-worth rereading over and over).

The Road Ode by @sallyexactly  - my sketchnote

Post-canon. Roadtrip with our favourite historian & lots of historical markers on the way. 107937 words.

The Gutter and the Stars by @letmetellyouaboutmyfeels - my sketchnote

Parallel Lines by @x-voyevoda - my sketchnote

Multiverse. Post-canon. Rated mature. Work-in-Progress. 71911 words.

Zajednički by @insane-sociopath - my sketchnote

Retelling of season 2. PTSD. More missions included. Incomplete. 129474 words.

Evocative / Poetic / Philosophical / Makes Me Think

Burn the Witch by barefootwithneonhands - my sketchnote

Evocative. Poetic & fascinating to no end. 19534 words.

Two Roads by @oldshrewsburyian - my sketchnote

How do you live your life while waiting for a future you once so tantalisingly glimpsed but barely dared hope for? Denise Christopher pondering her choices. 835 words.

The Nuclear Option by RedGold (@timelesshonesttrailer) - my sketchnote

“Sometimes… sometimes change happens because a thousand voices cry out and make themselves heard, many moving parts of some Rube-Goldberg Machine. But… from time to time… it just takes one person, making one decision, and that changes the fate of the world.” Jessica-centric. 6036 words

A Shot of Remembrance by @doctorliamsr - my sketchnote

Garcia & Karl. Season 1. 1093 words.

Scorched Earth by @sallyexactly - my sketchnote

Garcia & Lucy. Evocative language. 2695 words.

Ballet-Feerie by @oldshrewsburyian & @qqueenofhades - my sketchnote

Ballet AU. Dance as language. Authors’ summary: “Garcia Flynn teaches ballet to a class including Amy Preston. Lucy Preston has been her younger sister's guardian since they were orphaned. Hesitant conversations and fraught silences ensue. Also, there's Tchaikovsky.”  16799 words.

Alternate Universe

Finding Light in Darkness - by Ultra - my sketchnote

19-century Governess AU. 40199 words. Found Family. Wholesome story.

Incandescent & Adolescent (Wonders Never Cease) by @letmetellyouaboutmyfeels - my sketchnote

She Loves Me AU. 1930s setting. Lots of letter writing. 18438 words. 

Ballet-Feerie by @oldshrewsburyian & @qqueenofhades - my sketchnote

Ballet AU. See above. 16799 words

Blood Sins - A #FlynnFriday Imagines Series (E-rated) by  @doctorliamsr, @timelesshonesttrailer & @ununpredictableme - my sketchnote

Vampire AU. Ongoing story that fascinates me to no end. Reading any snippit I can get my hands on. Garcia/Lorena/Lucy & Jiya/Rufus relationships. The E-rated parts are clearly marked and can be skipped if it’s not your cup of tea. Currently at 47403 words.

The Assassin’s Holiday by @secretnerdprincess - my sketchnote

Murdervision. Assassin AU. Got me giggling all the way through. 12224 words. Rated mature.

Amehrana by Redgold (@timelesshonesttrailer) - my sketchnote

Food Truck AU. Found family. Wholesome. Mature people. Lorena is awesome.  32589 words.

Lorena Lives

Rise Like a Reckoning by @amandamonroe - my sketchnote

Author’s summary: ‘"Lorena Flynn Has a Chance" Ex-CIA agent Lorena Flynn is back. She's got her daughter, her husband, and the woman who saved their lives years ago. She's taking command of the bunker and taking Rittenhouse down.’ Lorena/Garcia/Lucy hinted at towards the end. 6483 words.

Blood Sins - A #FlynnFriday Imagines Series (E-rated) by  @doctorliamsr, @timelesshonesttrailer & @ununpredictableme - my sketchnote

See above. Also: Iris lives!

Amehrana by Redgold (@timelesshonesttrailer) - my sketchnote

See above. Yes, I’m recommending this twice. :-)

Due to the nature of the show, there are not many stories in which Lorena lives. I particularly like the Lorena focused stories that RedGold, @sallyexactly, @omnicat​ & @amandamonroe​ write. Lorena & Iris deserved better and these stories bring depth, humanity and grace to Lorena & her choices. I reread them frequently and recommend you do the same. These authors are amazing.

Recovery & Healing

To Find a Home by @misscrazyfangirl321 - my sketchnote 

Rufus & Jiya & Garcia friendship. Extending grace. 4529 words.

A Butterfly Garden by @vita-s-west - my sketchnote

Nisam Sam by @thealocksly - my sketchnote

Lucy’s processing her time in Rittenhouse & Garcia holds space for her. Soft & dark & visceral. 1225 words.

Q&A by @somekindofflowergirl - my sketchnote

Author’s summary: “Lucy and Flynn develop a routine during their nighttime chats. She's allowed one loaded question and he's allowed one loaded apology.” 22176 words

The Road Ode by @sallyexactly - my sketchnote

See above. This roadtrip fic inspired my own roadtrip where we found ourselves in Friedrichshafen, Germany and the Zeppelin museum there were there was a whole exposition on the Hindenburg. Felt very serendipidous.

Honorable mentions (especially in these pandemic times):

Disease Protocols for Time Travellers by hjea (594  words)

Also, I’d like to give a shoutout to @battleshipgarcy​ for their fan archive sites & meta posts with screenshots of the journal & all the meta content. I love seeing all those small details highlighted! (Plus: their Maria Thompkins in their story The Road Less Traveled intrigues me to no end!)

Other Fandoms

Hunger Games - A Standing Engagement (E-rated) by @bettsfic - my sketchnote. 

Annie & Finnick AU within Hunger Games world. 56760 words. The Food Wars are so very appropriate in the Hunger Games world. It’s fascinating how well betts incorporates exisiting Hunger Games context into this story: this feels like it could have happened.

Temeraire - The Diplomat’s Dragon by indecisive_lotus - my sketchnote

Ongoing story. Post-canon. I love Churki & Hammond together & how Hammond especially gets out-manouvered. 20730 words.

White Collar - In Your Wildest Dreams by sahiya - my sketchnote

Post-canon. Sara Ellis focused. Author’s summary ”This was what grief did to you, Sara knew. It played tricks on your mind. But if it wasn’t Neal, then who could it be? Who else would send her an anonymous packet detailing all the ways someone could knock over the Louvre?” 14289 words.

White Collar - I’ve been bingereading the stories by Sholio. Especially the stories focused on Diana Barrigan. They are a delight. Breakout is especially bad-ass Diana (in heels nonetheless!)

I started this blog to show my appreciation of those wonderful fanfic stories that have entertained me endlessly and engage with these amazing artists (and other people in fandom who share my enthusiasm!) This recommendation list is obviously incomplete and I welcome additions & conversations!

[female-fogbank]

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love ��

Oh, how am I supposed to choose from everything? So, I'm gonna just go with the ones that I hold dear in my heart and still have a giggle about 🤣 🤣 🤣 

The Stranded Light Series

It was the first Garcy stories that everyone remembers me for in Timeless. It was a collab that I thoroughly enjoyed writing as I was given all the details and I wrote the story. It turned out brilliantly.

Below the Belt

Rewriting Garcy history with this one, I never stop smiling when I read it. What if all it took was a dick punch to save history?

Consequences

A Garcy fic, I spent three years writing this story, it will forever hold a special place in my heart. It has a cute kid, Karl and Jiya hooking up, humour and family feels.

A Vulcan Makeover

SNW fic with Spocklaan friendship. It's a crack fics, I love writing them, I love this one because HumanSpock and La'an are such gremlins. M'Benga puts his foot in it, Una accidentally ruined Spock's eyebrow.

Babysitting Frankie

The Last Ship fic that is basically a comedy of highly competent people being defeated by a child. That child's parents having to live with the consequences of their friends being shit babysitters.

Flower/Tatto Shop AU

Lucy opened a tattoo shop after her step father Henry passed away from cancer. She’d always wanted to, but her mother always made her pursue history instead. Breaking away when she finally realized her mother was toxic, she decided to quit teaching and finally fulfill her dream (which Amy and Henry always encouraged her to do :’) Once she had all her certifications complete, she opened her new shop with the little bit of money Henry left her. Jiya helps run the place with scheduling and keeping the books (she’s also fucking hot with tattoos).

Flynn runs the garden shop next to Lucy and has a reputation of being a cranky recluse (he’s just lonely, sassy, and has zero social skills, i.e. he’s in character). His family passed away two years ago from (insert plausible death that isn’t Rittenhouse or a car crash) and he has since done his best to run the shop the way Lorena would have wanted. Rufus helps run the place (he’s too good for this world and he wears an apron:) and Karl is a supplier of Flynn’s. He also runs charity sails for (insert heart wrenching charity group:)

At some point, Lucy decides to meet the neighbors and goes next door. Rufus is working at the time so it all goes pretty well. She asks if she can come by sometime to study and draw the flowers to which he agrees. He tells her his schedule and so two days later, she comes with her pad and paper (and messy bun and ink stained hands (〃ω〃) while her shop is slow. When coming in she sees Flynn (in all his scruffy gardener glory) and they both just kinda stare at each other for a bit. After several moments of ogling each other (and then acting like they didn’t) Lucy introduces herself and says that Rufus had told her she could sit for a bit to draw the flowers. Flynn just responds with “Rufus has a cold today.” After waiting a bit for him to say something else, Lucy realizes that's apparently all he’s gonna say so “sorry to bother you, I hope Rufus gets to feeling better”. She’s almost out the door when Flynn FINALLY REBOOTS, calling out that if she’d like to stay she can, while pulling out a chair for her to sit. She does (awkwardly, we’re talking about Lucy here) and so she stays for the next hour drawing, while Flynn waters plants and minds the shop. They don’t talk. When she gets up to leave she gives him her thanks. Flynn again just stands there, barely muttering a simple goodbye.

A week-ish goes by and they haven’t seen each other since. Lucy worries he didn’t like her, while Flynn berates himself for not saying anything. He finally works up the courage to swing by with a small plant and to tell Lucy she’s welcome back if she likes. But he sticks his foot in his mouth saying “I know you need to practice drawing flowers more, so you can come to the shop if it helps:) :0 ” He stutters for a bit, trying (and miserably failing) to fix what he said while Lucy just smiles and tells him yes, she’ll be sure to swing by again.

This goes on for a while, Lucy spending more time “drawing” while Flynn “tends the shop”. Really they just start talking more and more (books, history, trauma, the usual for them XD ) They end up doing a charity sale together (does Carol try to foil it? Sounds like something she’d do ಠ_ಠ ) At some point Flynn meagerly asks how much it would cost to get an iris tattoo to which Lucy replies “a cutting of a plant that makes you think of me” (this is cheesy and I don’t care >:) . Other stuff happens; forehead kisses, Riya, ahem... FOREHEAD KISSES.

ya get the idea:)

Oh and Flynn has a cat that chills in the shop with him <- IMPORTANT

[burgundy-time-bandit]

Riya board

Photographer, Jiya Marri, can't seem to catch a break with her boss, Karl. Shadowing him, seemed like a good idea at the time, but what happens when she stumbles upon something big? And why is her husband doing business with her old English teacher?

After being injured during a game, former Wide Receiver, Rufus Carlin, inherites his uncles bar. When he starts making moonshine to help keep the bar open, it attracts all kinds of shady people. Including unwanted attention from the law and even worse, his wife.

High school sweethearts turned married couple, Rufus and Jiya had a bright future planned out. But when Rufus's football career is destroyed and he takes up working at his uncles speakeasy, their marriage also takes a turn. With Jiya spending more time at work and Rufus falling into the clutches of a gang leader, will their marriage survive? Or will this bring them closer together?

[mariannesketchnotes]

Today's reread is Blood Sins - A #FlynnFriday Imagines Series by @doctorliamsr, @timelesshonesttrailer & @ununpredictableme. A Vampire AU focused on Lucy, Garcia, Lorena, Rufus & Jiya.

I love reading stories about Lucy & Garcia as well as stories about Lorena & Garcia - so when it's the three of them together - it's absolutely marvelous. There is such respect, love & caring in this relationship here that it is wonderous. The Vampire AU aspect is nicely done and the mystery intrigues me: what happened? What is going on with Nicolas sort-of-aging-but-not-really? What will Karl's research into Lucy & Rufus turn up? When can we meet Iris? (pretty please *puppy eyes*?) Why are they suddenly after Lucy so desperately? How will Lorena, Garcia, Lucy, Jiya & Rufus handle the continued attacks & fight back against Rittenhouse?

Lucy gushing over history is always fun. Rufus being a brilliant researcher & scientist is always brilliant! Jiya being powerful, lovely & accepting no nonsense. Lorena & Garcia honouring & encouraging Lucy's setting of boundaries & having her choose actively - I am here for all of it.
