5 OTPs meme

The rules are to post 5 OTPs from different fandoms and then tag ten people to continue the meme.

1. Babylon 5: Susan Ivanova/Marcus Cole/Talia Winters/Neroon – because fuck if I am ever going to be able to decide in what configuration I like them most, so the four of them together suits me best.

2. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Julian Bashir/Elim Garak – they are one of the few pairs I have a hard time with pairing either one off with anyone else (or adding a third to them), at least while writing. (Reading is a whole different thing.)

3. Leverage: Parker/Alec Hardison/Eliot Spencer – I don’t remember the name of the episode, but the one where they were running the con inside a rehab center, and at the end when they’ve finished, the bit with Parker and Hardison and Eliot… and I just. Yes. These three. Forever and always. Maybe someone outside the trio for Eliot, because he likes being casually romantic and is awesome, but mostly just the trio, yes please and thank you.

4. MCU Avengers: Everybody/Everybody – everyone is poly because Avengers, and you can pry that headcanon out of my cold, dead hands, because this fandom hill I will die on. Every ship is possible, and all the ships are possible, and it’s not a closed polycule with the Avengers themselves, it’s the Avengers and Pepper and Jane and Darcy and Betty and Peggy and Bucky and Loki and every-fucking-body the Avengers decide they love and/or can negotiate having a fling with.

5. Henry V – Shakespeare: Henry V/Montjoy – because the 1989 Kenneth Branagh adaptation. Just. Because that.

(Star Wars is not on the list, because there are too many possibilities to chose from. Just. Too. Many.)

And I’m not going to tag anyone, I do not have the spoons for it today. If you want to play, feel free to consider yourself tagged!

Nicknames: are still a sore spot lo these twenty-five years later.
Zodiac Sign: Nope.
Gender: Agender, because gender is more work than I bloody care for.
Height: 5ft 3 or 4in
Sexual Orientation: Aromantic asexual. Romance and sex are nice in the abstract, not my thing in practice.
Relationship Status: Nope. And will stay nope.

Dogs or Cats?: Yes. And ferrets and snakes and spiders, if I were allowed.
Day or night?: Night. Sunlight is a necessity, but that does not make me like day time any better.
Text or call?: If I didn’t require a phone in this world, I wouldn’t have one.

Current number of followers: 612
What do you post?: Lots of fandom and writing and art stuff, heavily seasoned with mental health and chronic illness, a carefully measured dose of social justice and politics, and a healthy sprinkling of pretty people, wild or abandoned places, and personal posts.
Why did you chose this username?: Because it’s who I am, and it makes it easy for people to find me on multiple platforms when they find me in one place.

IRL crush: Last time I had a crush I would identify as such…. well, let’s say it was a disaster and move on, shall we?
Tumblr crush: Nope. Not playing favorites like that.

Tagging… no one in particular. If you wanna, go for it!

Send this to the 12 nicest people who you know or seem to have a good heart. If you get five back then you must be pretty awesome! <3 (◍•ᴗ•◍)♡ ✧

*hugs you* I will have to think about this and figure out who all to send this to. I’m flattered you think I earned this. 🙂 *hugs you again*

Handwriting meme! Did it twice because there’s a distinct difference between fast and fastidious.

tagged me in this WIP game:

WIP Game Rules: Go to page 7 of your WIP, count down 7 lines, share 7 sentences, and then tag 7 other writers.

So here’s a bit from the current chapter of Anabasis, some of which people have already seen the notes for. By a bizarre coincidence, that scene ended up on page 7, so here it is in it’s final form.

(Also, I’m doing a little more than 7 lines because it doesn’t make sense otherwise. The actual seven lines start about half-way down.)

“What happened?”

Obi-Wan frowned, but it was Anakin who answered. “Someone
offered Boba Fett one million credits to kill you,” he said. “Which is
ridiculous. He should have charged at least three million.”

Padmé could only shake her head. She knew him well enough to
know that was his idea of a compliment. She also knew it was sincerely meant,
which really only made it worse. It was probably best to just ignore it.

“Oh?” said Obi-Wan. He sounded caught somewhere between
annoyance and a morbid curiosity. “And how much are you worth, then?”

Padmé watched Anakin open his mouth to answer, and then
close it again. Something old and sharp-edged appeared in his eyes, glinting
like the stroke of a knife.

“Fifteen thousand Republic credits, roughly,” he said. There
was no inflection at all in his voice. “I know it seems like a lot, but I’m a
good mechanic, so that makes me more valuable.”

Okay I’ll actually tag some other people this time, but only do it if you want to: @scowlofjustice, @nimblermortal, @grand-duc, @terresdebrume and uh….anybody else on my dash who writes and isn’t writing TFA-related stuff.

I’ll play… And seven pages down the main story of the unnamed Vaderkin AU puts me right near the beginning of the next part, so perfect!

“Stop trying to turn her against me, Obi-Wan.” Vader reaches back to give Padmé another gentle shove. “Go, Padmé. Get on the ship, where you’ll be safe.”

“Safe from who, Anakin?” Obi-Wan focuses on Vader again, which suits Vader just fine. Keep Obi-Wan’s attention on him, and it’s not on Padmé, and he can’t use his mind-tricks on her. “She doesn’t need protection from me.”

Not going to tag anyone, but if you want to play, go for it!

10 Books Meme

A thing I scribbled down last night, and planned to post this morning, and then one of my posts blew up all over my activity page.

Rules: List 10 books that have touched your life in some way. They can be anything, even a short comic book, and there is no right or wrong answer. Just 10 books that have stayed with you. Tag 10 people including the person who tagged you.
