Let's write! We're not on hiatus yet.

Please get your entries in by 7 p.m. CST tonight. Please let me know if you need an extension.

Thanks!

Title: Never One of Them
Author: PhoenixDragon
Characters: Flavia, OC, References to the Fifth Doctor
Rating/Genre: Gen, PG
Wordcount: 500
Warnings: Spoilery(?) References to The Five Doctors, Secret High Council Meetings, Instrospection, Missing Scene, Character Speculation
Summary: “Be sure when we gather that we discuss business pertinent to our Council and our world. Not meddling in the affairs of the Doctor,” Flavia said without a hint of irony in her voice.
Disclaimer: I do not own the scrumptious Doctor or his lovely companions. That honor goes to the BBC and (for now) the fantastic S. Moffat. The only thing that belongs to me is this fiction - and I am making no profit. Only playing about!

The response was crisp, steel creeping in to color Chancellor Flavia’s words – brooking no room for argument.

Time to vote!

Since there are only four entries, you will be voting for TWO ENTRIES ONLY. (NO MORE, NO LESS) IF you end up voting for more, I will only count your first TWO. I will not accept votes of people who declare ties or more entries. THERE IS NO VOTING FOR YOURSELF, and only members and watchers may vote.

Please follow the rules on our profile page, vote fairly and do not get sock puppets or your friends to vote for you. Do not ask for votes outside the community. Please leave your votes as a comment to this post. The votes are all screened. All members are encouraged to vote, even those who did not post an entry. Please help our community stay active by reading and voting!

Vote like so:

1st - B. title, author
2nd - A. title, author

You must use the letter, title, and author when voting. Please use all three; it's much easier for me to tally that way.

The entries:

A. Fall Into Place by

B. Handprint by

C. Never One of Them by

D. Carnival Day by

Voting will end on Saturday November 23rd at midnight US central time, or until we get enough votes. Winners will be announced the next day and then winning banners will be up some time within the next week. Please vote and leave comments for our authors!

Please, please, PLEASE, find time to vote. It's not required for authors to vote but it's really helpful to all the other participants that DO read and vote to have a fair chance. I know it's not mandatory (and I've been considering changing that) but I really hope that I can have enough faith in you guys for full participation of this contest that means entering (if inspired), reading, commenting and voting. It really helps the community stay alive. Thank you so much!

Next challenge will go up soon!
