Fancy some Lestrade fic or art AND helping us celebrate Rupert's birthday?

Hello - Al from gravesdiggers here. (Hope this post is allowed, mods! Please let me know if not.)

It's Rupert's birthday on June 30th and we're raising money to donate to Wild Futures on his behalf. As part of our fundraising effort we're having a fanworks auction which readers of this comm may find of interest!

There's loads of fic and even a couple of pieces of art up for grabs,and nearly all of the donators are offering works involving Lestrade in some way or other!

You can find all the details on the auction here and on the fundraising in general here. Bidding on items is open until 11:59:00pm BST on Tuesday 23rd - so you've still got a couple of days to get your bids in and there are some real bargains still available!

Thanks very much!

Fic - "Smokey Solitude" - Complete (One Shot)

Title: Smokey Solitude
Author: Supesfan88/EclecticAce
Pairing/Characters: Greg Lestrade
Rating: PG-13-ish
Word Count: 697-ish
Spoilers: None
Summary: On one of Greg's rare days off we find him alone in his flat, reminiscing about his past.
Notes/Warnings: Swearing, drinking, smoking -- Un-Betaed
Disclaimer: Inspector Gregory Lestrade is an original idea of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, however the incarnation of Lestrade I went with here is based on DI Lestrade, who is played by the absolutely amazing Rupert Graves, and belongs to Steven Moffatt and Mark Gatiss.

There had to be something said about a honest to god good cigarette - even the carcinogen filled hazy blue smoke seemed to "slide" easily down his throat and into his lungs (rather than the usual "drag and scratch" feeling seemingly suffered with all others), half a tumbler of 100 year old Walker Black - neat, of course (because anything else would be a sin), side two of "Dark Side" on a tried, true and well-loved 35 year old record player, and utter, fucking solitude.
