Welcome

Hi, this is my main blog. I made a new email so that I wouldn’t have five sideblogs plus a main & a partner project blog. I’m also experimenting with different names so on my other account I have a different name. UPDATE: My other account got terminated. So this is my only account now.

Update update: I have two other accounts again lol. I'm a tad insane.

This blog will be mainly for creating ultra-specific side-blogs for my HyperFixations. So far, I have a sideblog called @late-to-the-party-221 for BBC Sherlock (not v active) @bitechompfiretf2 for tf2 (not v active), @codex-dominion for codex alera (sadly not v active), @murdochautismmoments for Murdoch mysteries, @castle-dominion for Castle, & @psych---ologically-deranged for Psych. Follow those blogs for your daily fix of fandom content, but I post personal stuff & non-fandom stuff to this blog.

Sometimes I post fandom stuff here if I don't have a blog specifically for it. Back when I was lowkey hyperfixating on a series of unfortunate events (Netflix, though I read the books too) I didn't make a blog but I used the tag asoue on this blog. I also considered a blog for Firefly. Good omens goes here. Music stuff. Any fandom that I enjoy in a normal way.

10. Share a bit of your WIP:

From the Thrall/Jaina fic that I've been thinking about since November and randomly started writing this week.

“I have missed your company,” she admits. “I wish it were under better circumstances but I am glad of the chance to speak freely with one another again. To be...”

To be what? Alone together? Confidants? Close? She isn’t sure what to say, what she wants to say or should say.

“It has been too long,” Thrall does not smile but there is a warmth to his expression nonetheless. Jaina knows that most humans would not see it, but she can. “We dreamed of a future where our people could live in peace, but we neglected to stay with them along that path. I neglected it.”

“There is always too much to do, too many enemies at our doors, too many wants to consider.”

“The burden of leadership. I thought I could set it down for a time and I must live with the consequences of that.”

“We all have to live with the consequences of our choices, assuming we are lucky enough to survive to see them.”

“We will survive this, together. It is good to find you at my side again, Jaina.”

“And you, Thrall. If only…” If only what? If only they were more often on the same side of a battle. If only their peoples could find the safety in one another that the two of them feel. Jaina does not doubt Thrall’s sincerity, his integrity.

The problem is that there is only one Thrall. People like him do not come around more than once in a lifetime, maybe more than once in history.

She has been questioned, at length, about why she put trust in the Warchief all those years ago, how she could turn a blind eye to the destruction his people had caused. She has been called so many things.

There have been times when she started to agree with her accusers. Had she been foolish and blind? Naive? Enthralled even?

No. Here in this hell it is more evident than ever. Thrall has always been worthy of her respect, her trust, her-

Favourite fic I wrote: I am terrible with favorites... truly.

Fic you want to rewrite/expand on:

Not counting my WIPs (Stumbling [Star Trek: Voyager, Janeway/Chakotay], k’war’ma’khon [Star Trek: Discovery], and Dragon Marked [Game of Thrones, Dany/Jorah]. )

I would say The Smallest Twine (Star Trek: Voyager, Janeway/Chakotay... though the two planned sequels open up into TNG and DS9 as well), which is an AU Prequel for Voyager, but also sets up the possibility of a very different trajectory for the end of the Cardassian War (as explored by all three 24th century Trek series). Butterfly effect and all that.

Share a bit of a WIP or a story idea you’re planning on:

Since I was tagged multiple times, I’ll preview a couple things I am (theoretically) working on.

For @janiedean, my ASOIAF book!verse canon compliant Jaime/Brienne, Davos/JonC, Sansa/Aegon someday maybe epic:

“I thought she’d be safe here…” Brienne called out to herself as much as Jaime as their captors shoved her forward away from him, feeling foolish for having thought the wars would have left her home untouched. “I thought we all would be.”

I should have known, she felt, even as she knew there was no reason for her to have suspected. Perhaps, if they had lingered longer in White Harbor, they might have heard word of the raids surrounding Cape Wrath. But how could they have? They were none of them inconspicuous, even with Sansa’s hair dyed.

The Kingslayer and two women who half of Westeros believed to be the same. A fine catch for mercenaries to sell to the highest bidder. How could you have been so stupid? she berated herself.

That said, though the Golden Company named Westeros as their home, these men came from Essos, perhaps these soldiers wouldn’t recognize the maimed lion they had captured, wouldn’t see the wolf disguised as a bird.

Brienne, alone, was not worth ransoming to anyone other than her own father, surely. Assuming he was alive to ransom her to, that was. Brienne shuddered to think of the alternative, of some mercenary captain who decided he wanted to legitimize his claim to this island, no matter the cost, no matter how her already ugly face had been disfigured.

For @memoir-of-stars and @fanoftheknight, the drunken Dany/Jorah Game of Thrones AU fic I promised someone (I think it was @salzrand) last summer:

“The Donrish seem to have as many vineyards as the Dothraki have horses,” he heard Daenerys remark to Jorah, leaning halfway over him to look out the carriage window, her hand gripping his shoulder for balance.

“You wouldn’t think it, with the price the resulting wine fetches,” Ser Jorah replied, catching Daenerys with surprisingly steady hands as the carriage hit a rock and jostled them all.

Daenerys allowed herself to be drawn back down onto the cushions beside Mormont, curling herself up against his side and resting her head against his shoulder. Tyrion wasn’t sure what to make of the tableau they formed, her so slight and blossoming and him solid and weathered. Mormont, he knew, was devoted to Daenerys beyond any doubt, and in every sense of the word but he was beginning to suspect he’d misjudged the nature Daenerys’ attachment to her bear, as she could so often be overheard calling Ser Jorah.

“Lemon trees!” the queen called out in obvious delight, interrupting Tyrion’s musing and reminding him once again how young the usually composed Daenerys really was.

And one more for good measure (since that was three tags), the Deanna Troi/Jadzia Dax Star Trek: TNG and DS9 crossover PWP I need to finish someday

“I hope I’m not overstepping.”

Standing in her doorway is Deanna Troi, Daughter of the Fifth House of Betazed, all soft curls and soft curves and a gentle unpresuming air that contradicts and heightens the impact of those things. Jadzia is intrigued… okay she was already intrigued: now she’s closer to enchanted.

“Step all you want,” Jadzia keeps the tone of flirtatiousness in her voice light, knowing that the empathic counselor will be bound to notice it but letting it be something she can choose to react to or not.

Doubtless, she’s here about Worf. She’s pretty sure everyone from here to the promenade heard their last row and, of course, Troi was there for the start of it.

That’s okay with Jadzia. There aren’t that many people who’ve seen certain sides of Worf, who understand him. (Sometimes Jadzia isn’t even sure she’d put herself in that number.) It would be a relief to talk to someone who gets it.

“I feel like I owe you an apology, Jadzia. Is it alright if I call you Jadzia?”

You could call me just about anything and I’d like it, that wicked little Dax voice suggests, but it just brings a smile to her face.
