Argh, help!

Does  anyone know why the type of anything I cut and paste into LJ is coming up a different color in my preview window than it normally does?  Anything I type directly in is still white, but anything I cut and paste is coming up black, which is hard to read against the purple background.  Is LJ glitching or did I press some button I don't know about?  Is it just a preview window thing and it'll go away if I post it?  I've got part one of a smut fic I'd like to post, but not if it's going to be impossible to read.

Treading Water (1/3)

A/N:  Based on a smut prompt that SolarFlare gave to Lillibet but she didn't want it.  I couldn't resist it, so this one's for you two.  Nine/Rose.  Oh, and the prompt was Nine is swimming naked and Rose catches him.

                                          Treading Water

Rose Tyler is frustrated. The Doctor has once again disappeared into the limitless depths of the TARDIS after yelling at her for being reckless and downright stupid with her own life. It doesn’t matter to him that what she did saved his life, only that she’d risked her own to do it. He’d seemed fine until he’d realized she’d been injured and that’s when he’d lost it. Oh, he’d repaired her injury easily enough, but he’d had her blood on his hands for a bit and it had totally unnerved him.

Of the Vortex Born: Chapter Eighteen

A/N:  Confirmation of sexual assault of a minor.

Chapter Eighteen:   Darkness Descends

“Damn it!” swore Dr. Owen Harper as he reviewed the footage he'd recovered from the examination of young Jamie Tyler. His wife looked up sharply from her own perusal and at the look on his face was immediately on her way over.

“You don’t want to see this, Gwen,” said Owen.

Of the Vortex Born: Chapter Nineteen

A/N:  I borrowed bits and pieces of Timothy's speech from the DW season 3 episode Family of Blood.

Chapter Nineteen:  Storm Wolf

“Put down the gun, Gwen.” Luke was on his feet in a shot and into the other room. He saw a tall blond man holding a weapon of his own on Gwen Harper and Owen Harper was flat on his back on the floor, eyes closed and his cheekbone rapidly bruising.

“You can put your own weapon down, Davis,” Gwen said calmly. “It’s over. What you’ve done has been reported to the highest level of Torchwood Station.”
