Fandom: Scream 3
Characters/Pairings: Sidney Prescott/Roman Bridger
Rating & Warnings: Rated M / mild half-sibling incest (non-explicit kissing) and canon-typical violence and creepiness
Estimated Fic Length: Approx. 2.5k
Notes: I'm looking for someone to tell me if the story (and its themes) holds up cohesively. I wrote the piece and felt like it was finished, then wrote an additional 500 words because I started feeling like it needed something more but now I'm not sure if the whole structure holds up with the new section I added. I don't think you need to be super familiar with the movie franchise or characters, though it couldn't hurt. The deadline's not until January 1st.

Current Mood: hopeful

Fandom: The Old Guard

Characters/Pairings: Andromache, OMC

Rating & Warnings: G; brief mention of period-typical racism; witch-hunting.and hypocrisy

Estimated Fic Length: 1,000

Notes: Movie canon. GoogleDoc is midway between rough and polished (a verbal storyboard, if you like), so I'm mostly looking for narrative flow and plausibility rather then SPaG.

Fandom: National Treasure
Characters/Pairings: Ben/Riley (Established Relationship)
Rating & Warnings: PG-13/Talk of past violence
Estimated Fic Length: 1,100
Notes: Written for small fandom fest so I would need by January 30. Basically Ben contemplates the word loyalty and how it relates to Riley and their relationship.

Thank you!!

Fandom: James Bond

Characters/Pairings: 00Q (James Bond/Q)

Rating & Warnings: Mature, last chapter may be explicit? Eventually? +Minor character death.

Estimated Fic Length: ~25k+

Notes: Basic premise — M has appointed 007 to work in Q branch for the duration of his recovery from a mission. I posted the first chapter without a beta and immediately regretted it because it has a potential to be something good. Then I got a beta, but it seems they've bailed on me. I can still remedy this, but I also have another 8 chapters that are about 15% finished and ideally I'd like someone to both motivate me a tiny bit as well as look at the overarching plot, because it makes sense, but I'm sure there's plot holes. And perhaps the pacing as I appear to be so very dreadful at it. There are a handful of original characters since most of the story takes place in Q branch, but they mostly fit within the story and are not obtrusive.

I can absolutely return the favour, not only because it'd be a nice thing to do, but I'd also love to.

Fandom: Sahara (Movie)
Characters/Pairings: Dirk Pitt/Al Giordino

Notes: H/C one shot. After Al almost dies Dirk realizes how he feels about his partner. Due at the end of July.

Thank you!!

Hello! I'm ESL and mostly need a beta for grammar/syntax/phrasing/vocabulary nitpicking on a few short one-shot. I already found a volunteer for some but not all of them and anyway I figured another go just ot be sure couldn't hurt?
All of these one-shot are between 500 and 1000-word long. A content beta would be appreciated as well, but I'm afraid I'm not able yet to rewrite the fics, so any remarks would be stored and kept in mind for the next time I write about the same characters. So far they're all posted on my personal journal and should be republished on AO3 and FF.Net if I can get them betaed and the assurance that they're at least grammatically correct. If you feel up to the task, you can either comment directly on the posts or send me a PM.

( AtLA, Discworld, FMA, HTTYD, PoM )

Thanks in advance!

Fandom: The Lost Boys (1987 film)
Characters/Pairings: Star/Michael/David
Rating & Warnings: sex, bloodplay, canon-appropriate levels of violence
Notes: This is a twenty years post-canon story where Star and Michael were never really cured, and David has been after them. I bring in a handful of plot points from The Thirst and The Tribe, mostly related to Alan and Sam in their only vaguely canon-ish post-credits and deleted scenes, and bringing Zoe in so that Star is not The Girl of the story. Story is about 25k words long.

Hello! I've caught up on tags again to prepare for the new year.

Another reminder that I won't add a tag for a specific fandom until at least two different people post about that fandom on the comm. If you don't see your fandom in the tag list, you're proably looking for a catch-all tag:

fandom: animanga series
fandom: books (other)
fandom: movies (other)
fandom: none/original fiction
fandom: nonfiction
fandom: tv shows (other)
fandom: video games (other)
fandom: webcomics (other)
fandom: web series (other)
fandom: western animation (other)
fandom: western comics (other)

I regularly go through the catch-all tags to see if there are any doubles that need to be moved to a tag of their own. If you want to get your own fandom tag faster, encourage your friends to use this comm too! :D

I've also added the new tag "fandom: star trek (reboot)", to try and differentiate the newer movies from the older tv series and movies. We've not yet had more than one person asking for betas in each individual star trek series, which is why they're still using the catch-all "fandom: star trek series."

If there's anything else I can do to make the comm's tag system easier to use, please let me know. Thank you for using

betaplease and happy new year! Please remember to tag your posts!
