The walls grew fatter here than any in the land
It is not my norm that all of my completed fiction so far this year has been fanfiction, but on the other hand I could be not writing fiction at all. Most lately, for ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
thisbluespirit: "The Debt of Centuries."
I wanted to write them reciprocal casefic for Sapphire & Steel (1979–82), so I threw their catalogue of original and other elements into the Ersatz Genremixer to see if I got any useful prompts. Among others, I received "Arsenic / Zinc - Awkward moment & tradition & Lending a coat in the cold," which was technically no crackier than the rest except that Arsenic and Zinc are fancast with Caroline Blakiston and Alec McCowen, last seen by me in Mr. Palfrey of Westminster (1984–85). I could not resist.
The title is a mondegreen left over from hearing Dave Goulder's "These Dry Stone Walls" (since I can't find a link to his own recording, here performed by Gordon Bok) decades before I saw the official lyrics. It seemed to suit. I do not think I am one of nature's tag-users.

I have not read it yet, but the blurb for Our Wives Under the Sea makes me think it might be relevant to your interests.

Thank you! I'm so glad!
(I very much recommend watching Sapphire & Steel. I never got around to writing about the entire series, but it's five-sixths brilliant and even the sixth I don't love is still pretty neat.)

I do feel slightly attacked.
