My flist went strangely quiet after Doctor Who on Saturday. I thought for a while I'd somehow offended them all horribly. But now I think it was probably more to do with the fact people were on the BBC, omg. Or at medieval fairs. Or whatever.

Today I got to go file on the fourth floor, for the Geotechnical people. The scoffs of horror I met with whenever anyone mentioned that job should have given me some warning about it (though it was still better than the alternative of putting hundreds of almost identical A0 drawings in the right order). The man in charge said there would probably only be about 15 job numbers/piles to sort documents into. He lied. I think I can justifiably refer to him as the Prince of Lies, in fact. And now I have to put it all in date order, and do the actual filing. Which is apparently "slightly different" to the downstairs system. My fear. The reminder of my paycheck in two weeks is all that keeps me going, I think.

Also, melata_fic said she'd jump on the Hook-Handed Man/Violet bandwagon if I wrote some fic. So I dug up one of my old plotbunnies. Voila.


Title: Whisper.
Fandom: A Series of Unfortunate Events
Pairing: Violet, the Hook-Handed Man
Notes: Sort of a vignette/pre-fic. Set during 'A Bad Beginning', probably partly inspired by some of the visuals from the movie. Slightly dark. PG-13.
Disclaimer: I don't own them. I just play with them. I am not Lemony Snicket. Honest.
Feedback: Appreciated. Believable characterisation would be nice.

Editing still gives me a headache.
