Summary: Senateverse. Morning Joe weighs in; Stephen makes a purchase; soldiers give nonanswers about DADT; Jason checks in from Tehran; Jon gives nonanswers about Stephen.

Note that this was written, and takes place, more than a week ago, before things fell apart in our!Iran. I would hold off on posting, but I don't know if there will ever be a "good time" to post it, so here it is. And please keep an eye on the news, if you aren't already.

(Yeah, I know, that may be a superfluous request to make of TDS fans. Still.)


( Okay, so it looked kind of like a muffler. But the local vendor he had bought it from assured him it was a gun. At least, that's what Stephen assumed the man had said. He just hoped Sweetness wouldn't be jealous. )

Title: Stay (1/4)
Rating: PG
Warnings: Yelling, Googlebombs.
Characters/pairings: Jon, "Stephen", Rob R., Sam/Jason, Scarborough, Aasif

Summary: Senateverse. The blogosphere loves how Jon carried himself in that hearing against CNBC. Stephen is less approving. But when Jon reacts by accusing him of not caring about anyone but himself, he'll have to take drastic measures to prove otherwise.

Carries on the Emmy Rossum song naming theme. (The lyrics don't match very well this time, but the title will keep coming up.)

Title: Nate Corddry and the Supply Closet of Doom
Fandom: The Colbert Report (the characters); The Daily Show
Genre: Comedy
Rating: PG-13
Words: ~1900
Warnings: Sex. It's offscreen, but there's a lot of it (eleven pairings total).
Disclaimer: The Colbert Report and its characters are the creation of Stephen Colbert, Eric Drysdale, and the other writers. Characters used without permission - but with love (and, more importantly from a legal standpoint, without profit).

And the real people are, well, real. Regardless, the story is not. I wrote a disclaimer about this as a poem. ( That disclaimer )

Notes: All the correspondents mentioned can be found on this list. (They date the story pretty well.) As for non-correspondents: TCR staff are in their Report characters; Laura is the intern to whom Stephen once did his unflattering Chinese stereotype impression, which was not meant to be broadcast but caught by the blogosphere; and if you don't catch one of the pairing references, mac_hearts_pc should clue you in.

( Nate is the only person not getting any action in the Daily Show supply closet. )
