Hey Torchwood lovers! As dedicated watchers and fandomers and ficcers, bet you've probably seen what I've seen in this fandom which is a lot of really fantastic, high-rated fic. All sorts of kink, emo!ship, lovely canon to delve into. I adore this about the Torchwood fandom. However, sometimes you just need a reality check. And that's where

badsexfest comes in.

Sex isn't always pretty! Sometimes the hockey stick whacks you in the face. Sometimes the sex pollen wears off halfway through. Sometimes your boss walks in while you're dirty-talking with a Weevil. That's why

badsexfest is here, to show the, shall we say, not so perfect side of what our favorite characters do aaall the time.

Prompting is open until July 1, so come on down and spread some out-of-this-universe prompts, and fill the Torchwood and any fandom prompts that are already there. The com won't know what hit it in the face just as it was about to come.

I’ve been a rather hands off mod of late, but I’m thinking that in the next few weeks some of us are going to be missing classic Torchwood a whole lot more. So with that in mind I thought it’s about time I got a few things running again.

The challenges:
Although I can’t offer banners any more for taking part, as I just don’t have the time to commit to making them, I will be posting writing/art challenges for anyone who wants to take part.

The challenge themes will be:
1st – 31st July, Holidays.
1st – 31st August, Heatwave.
1st – 30th September, pre-series and/or minor characters.
1st to 31st October, 5 things. This is because it will be 5 years since Torchwood first appeared on TV.

Themed rec posts.
This is something that I’d originally intended to do when I set up the comm. but never started.

The intention is to put up a post every Friday and during the course of the week people comment with recs for that weeks particular theme. The post will then be linked in the tags under recs: what the theme was.

Could people comment below on what they would like as possible themes, ie Myfanwy based fic, crossovers, or year that never was.

On Friday I’ll put up a poll of the suggestions that received and people can vote for which themes they want most. I’ll keep the poll open over the weekend. The top 10 polling themes will then be the theme recs for the next 10 weeks. At around week 6 or 7 I’ll put up a post to for suggestions/voting on the next 10 weeks recs.

Any other suggestions or questions, ask and I’ll try to get back to you.
