It's time for some general life updates.

I signed up for [community profile] fandomtrees , here is my post ! It's a great idea and I hope it can brighten up my December this year.

I also tried to watch the Russian Sherlock Holmes series from 2013 a few days ago, but I couldn't find it. Admittedly, I didn't look very hard, but I heard some good things about it and wanted to check it out. So, if anyone knows where to find it, could you tell me?

And then, there is my current writing dilemma. I'm still working (slowly but surely) on the Harry Potter time travel fic. Things are moving along in a very chaotic way, but they are moving. I also was inspired for something entirely else. A while ago I had this idea for a Sherlock Holmes/Elementary fic: Joan Watson accidentally ends up in Victorian London, where she meets acd's Sherlock Holmes. I wrote it down for later, so I wouldn't think about it too much. But it seems I can't help it. It's incredibly distracting.

A while a go I was visiting a friend and we were talking about funny fanfictions from various fandoms. She showed me a short, crack-ish Harry Potter fic, where Harry had travelled back in time and had to teach Divination (cause he knew things that hadn't happened yet, and therefore obviously was a Seer). We started discussing what would have to change for this to be at least a little more serious. A few hours later we had a rough plot.
I love the ideas we came up with, worked some more on it and now I'm writing it - for her and to be able to blame her, if nothing else.

Now, what is this all about?
Due to an work accident Harry gets transported back in time. He ends up in the summer of 1942, where he has to solve two immediate problems: finding a way back and surviving until then. Not only does he need a roof over his head, food, clothes and other necessities, there is also the second world war going on. But luck will have it that there is an open teaching position at Hogwarts, where he will have a steady income, all the necessities taken care off and access to an excellent library to do research and find out what happened to him.
Only when he starts preparing for his new job does he realise, Tom Riddle is still a student and this is the year where he opens the chamber of secrets.

As far as I can tell right now, it will be a Gen fic with an M rating cause Tom and his friends are, well. They are, who they are. And I might have lost control over him, after asking some friends for bad things he could do. They had very good ideas. (btw. if you have some mean ideas I'd be happy to adopt them).
