"The stirrings of fic" is a good way of putting it. I'm curious now - what's the strangest or most inappropriate thing you've ever written fic on? Or the most inappropriate location or occasion?
Mine would be the official concluding meeting of an-EU funded project I was involved in a few years back. The meeting was in Ragusa, in Sicily, with various governmental bigwigs present, and it was just so damn boring! I looked as if I was diligently taking notes. In actual fact I was writing a missing scene from the Retribution episode of Hornblower - Archie having a panic attack and being force-fed laudanum by Dr Clive between the end of the trial and the next (and last!) time he sees Horatio. Cheerful stuff!
