This pretty new promo pic for season 2… why is Chapel monochrome?? It looks like one of those pictures in which the ones in b/w are deceased. What’s gonna happen to her??

🥺 I WORRY

 “ That is highly illogical. ”

“Sometimes it’s more about the journey than the- look, you’re not supposed to actually read the list of ingredients...”

Chapel cradles the specially replicated box of 21th century breakfast cereal protectively, then holds it up and points to the side.

“You’re supposed to solve the word puzzle. Sort of a combined nutritional experience and a recreational activity.”

Hiatus notice

Hi everyone. I’ve been trying to push myself to write for a couple of days, and it’s starting to feel stressful - which I absolutely don’t want. I’m going to take a small hiatus for my mental health and do other things for awhile.

I love the threads, relationships and plots we got going on and I adore writing with you. Thank you for being patient, I appreciate it. ❤

In the meantime, take care of yourselves ok, it’s summer, stay hydrated - lots of love from an actual pigmentless cave spider

"Hey..." She put the cutting knife down and wiped her hands on a towel. This was the second time they cooked together and something was eating him. Whether or not he was ready to talk about it was another question entirely, but she wanted at the very least to let him know he could.

"How are you feeling?" She hesitated, studying his face. "I can tell something's wrong, and if you say you don't want to talk about it, we can just go back to cooking and that's fine..." A pause. "But I'm right here, and some things are a lot easier to deal if you're not doing it alone."

Her vision blurred and she had to turn away for a moment. Her heart ached with such intensity that some old fear stirred in the depths of her soul. The most beautiful thing anyone’s ever said to her, and she felt laid bare, too vulnerable to be safe.

It urged her to make light of the situation, to crack a joke and retreat. But she couldn’t, not in the face of Erica’s bravery. She wasn’t trying to pin her down, even pointed out that the memory of her would be dear to her even if the future put them on different paths.

How could she be less truthful in response? Her hand lifted to gently ghost her fingertips down her cheek as she swallowed hard.

“You’re the most beautiful soul I’ve ever met”, she whispered. “Every moment I get to spend with you is a moment I treasure.”

❝  i was sort’ve hoping you needed me.  is that selfish?  ❞

❝  when your eyes are on me,  i feel like something worth seeing.  ❞

❝  just let me look at you for a little bit.  ❞

The Enterprise Command station is unusually spacious, with controls and instrumentation so highly advanced the net effect is simplicity and attractiveness. In foreground, CHRISTOPHER PIKE, Captain of the U.S.S. ENTERPRISE. […]  He is a complex personality with a sensitivity and warmth which the responsibility and loneliness of command often forces him to hide.

plotted starter for @chapelicious​ 

chief security officers log; something—im not sure what it is, but this place doesn’t feel abandoned. I can’t get past the feeling of being watched, even when im alone. it doesn’t make sense. this outpost has been abandoned for nearly fifty years. the only use starfleet found in it was to turn it into a relay station to aid in deep space communications. I’ve spoken with chapel, the chief of medical about it, I can only hope it’s in my head and the creepy feeling is from whatever made the cobwebs in this place and the long lost prints in the dust covered consoles. everything is moving along smoothly, although we’ve gotten reports of whispers being heard in empty corridors. it could be anything at this point, we are only three months in to readying the outpost. we have a lot more work to do here. I never expected to be put in charge of everything but with chapel’s help, things have been running smoothly and all 45 members of the crew are healthy and accounted for.

this planet… this place. it was had a creep factor that made her uncomfortable, even more so when it was quiet and she was in her office looking over rotations for shifts, plans to begin mining for the relay, and the next shipment of supplies. the reports of whispers poured in within the first week of their mission to ready Kelso 335 for relay operations. erica chopped it down to old equipment replaying old logs and lost emergency beacon tests. what else could it be?

the rapport they were given months ago seemed fine, there was nothing dangerous on this planet aside from some local wildlife, but they were no where near the outpost. it took a couple of weeks to clear the hallways of dust, it would take a few more to get the systems updated. the mission was slated to be two years and yet, she wasn’t sure with the damage to the base over the years, if it could be done in that amount of time.

leaving her office, she made her way down to medical to check in on an injury from one of the science crew who was  looking into the local fauna to update reports. pressing a button along the wall, the door opened with a swish and she stepped into the bright lighting of med bay. typical injuries on the job, but the fauna one was interesting enough to gather her attention after the crew member developed a rash in the arm she claimed the fauna latched onto. 

“hey.” stepping into lab she leaned against the counter looking over the vine that latched onto their crew. “anything?” dark gaze moved from the vine towards christine, bringing a small smile to her features. “should I raise the alarm on this thing. you know? hey guys , don’t agitate the plants, they bite.” a slight tease but her question was serious. “I have something for you to look at too, I found some medical reports from the previous occupants. out dated but it’s on interactions with this thing.”

in truth she wasn’t sure what to make of it. if they needed a medical evac for their science officer, it would take nearly a week to be reached. that alone made her uncomfortable. “nothing too helpful, but it documents the same rash. it might help you with this one.”

chief medical officer personal log —Do you believe in ghosts? I’m not sure who I’m talking to here. I’ll have to edit this later anyway. Once the CMO starts blaming ghosts it’s over. I’ve had patients ask me about the whispering, thinking it may be tinnitus, and it’s not - I checked. I told them it must be the AC or something. Wrongly calibrated, you know? But it’s not. I can tell we’re not alone at Kelso 335. There’s something here with us but I can’t figure out what and I’ve got nothing to back it up with. I can’t go to Erica with nothing but a gut feeling and some goosebumps. On the other hand, the Erica I know respects a gut feeling. It kept us alive more than once. I have to tell her I think something’s up. Just have to steer clear of the ghost talk.

So far their mission hadn’t offered any medical emergencies, but then Christine had watched them all like a hawk. Until now, and this was hardly an emergency. The science officer had his arm placed on a sharply lit table and she was sitting on the other side, carefully sealing the tiny wounds the vine had caused. After removing it she had secured it in a sealed jar. It curled against the glass, and in the bright light she could see the tiny, red thorns covering the stalk.

Something about it didn’t sit right with her, but she couldn’t put her finger on what so she turned her attention back to the officer’s arm. The closed wounds were surrounded by small dots, so dark that they were almost red.

“It itches”, the science officer confessed and she hummed an acknowledgement while scanning the arm and reading the result. Nothing out of the ordinary.

When Erica stepped inside, she had to smile.

“Hi there. No, so far it’s nothing special...” She trailed off when medical reports were mentioned. If it was important enough to make a medical report of, it couldn’t have been standard. Putting a lid on her misgivings for now, she accepted the reports gratefully. “Ah, that’s very helpful. Thanks. I was wondering, this is a pretty mild reaction to a plant that’s so predatory that it moves much faster than a Venus Flytrap. Gotta be more to it.”

Something in the corner of her eye - a movement? - caught her attention before she was even consciously aware of it, and she whipped her head around.

“Did you see that?” she asked quietly, moving closer to the patient, eyes locked on the naked arm.

Another movement; something was moving underneath the skin, for just a fraction of a second before it was smooth again. She canted her head, hand tightening around the pad containing the old medical reports.

“You know what, tell everyone to avoid these plants”, she breathed, her mind working at warp speed.

the palenque was a touchy area for her. erica doesn’t talk of the losses or why she wore the pin for remembrance day. she experienced so many firsts on that ship, it was engraved in the back of her mind and would probably remain there until she felt it was alright to talk about it. there were times she could swear that christine could read her mind and where her thoughts lingered during their late night conversations—she never had to go into full detail of what she was thinking and it sounded insane to say out loud but it gave her a peace of mind, it kept her at ease.

she could tell and see the gears turning before christine spoke. she offered a small smile. enjoyed hearing how differently her thoughts worked compared to the average person. erica knew if she was talking to anyone else in the quiet of the space station around them, she’d get the  old ‘your fate is sealed and there was nothing you could do to change it’ speech. not christine. “there are a few people who I can say have become part of the story of who I am today. they don’t question—they listen—they are the ones who don’t judge and support every dumb choice I have ever made.” friends that are still out there on other star ships, at other deep space stations watching their ship get worked on just as they were.

fate was a tricky thing, some believed it was the path you were on, others thought it was already written. erica wasn’t sure where she stood on the debate of it all. she knew that she believed that making choices kept you on the path you were supposed to be one.  

“there’s this quote.” she began, her smile growing at the thought. “it comes from a 20th century music artist. he said; ‘There’s nowhere you can be that isn’t where you’re meant to be…’ and I think it speaks wonders to what we do out here.” her gaze falls to christine. “you know… no matter where we end up, here is where we are supposed to be. if we ended up in another deep space station, that is where we were meant to be. in a million timelines, a million universes we are where we are supposed to be.”

she could agree with the meetings, she could count on one hand the ones that felt like fate. “If you could change anything, would you? if someone out there said ‘I got this nifty machine that will change a choice you made’ could you?” of all the years she’s been active in startfleet and more to come, she doubt something like that will become a thing, but it was fun to think about.

“I like that quote.” The more she thought about it, she really did. Obviously it didn’t account for the horrible things. She had seen enough people dying unnecessarily she’d never believe that their stories were supposed to end like that. But largely, when thinking of the broad strokes, she could definitely subscribe to the meaning behind the quote. It didn’t tell you that horrible things happened for a reason, or that you had to stay in your place - but instead of thinking you were meant to be somewhere else, you look at what you have and where you are here and now - and push on from there.

“If you use it correctly, it’s more empowering than compliant, you know. My whole problem with Fate is that it tries to pin you down. If I’ll ever subscribe to a fate-based ideology, it will have to be one that allows for free will - and change.”

She considered the what if scenario Erica described. It was a temptation she was glad to not have to resist.

“I’m not arrogant enough to say I got no regrets. I’ve made some dumb decisions -  most of us have, right - but to go back and change it?” She scrunched up her nose in a brief grimace and shook her head. “No. Every decision I made led me here, now, with you. And I like where I am and who I’m with.”

She smiled then, sheepishly, as if she’d said a bit too much.

“My point is, that if you start to go back and change your flaws, pretty soon there will be nothing left of you.” A curious glance. “What about you? Would you go back and change anything if you could?”

Not-as-spicy sinday asks.

For those of us out there that would like to participate, but also find some of the sinday memes out there a little too spicy. Consider this the mild sauce of the ask memes for sinday.

What is your muse’s sexuality?

Are they dominant or submissive?

What kind of underwear do they wear on the day-to-day?

Are they polite or do they have a dirty mouth?

Do they get embarrassed easily when it comes to nsfw things? Or are they shameless?

What kind of things are they into?

Are they a virgin? When did they lose their virginity? If they haven’t, do you think they ever will? Are they waiting for someone special, or do they just not care?

Would you consider them kinky or tame?

Are they loud in bed or quiet? Talkative or more of a noise maker?

Give us a random sinday headcanon or fact about your muse!

[chapelicious]

which beautiful concept are you?

the silence of the moon, and all those who pray to it  

there is peace among the wreck. the universe is vast and unending, with so much love hidden in its crevices. you are the secret in the darkness, waiting to bring a sense of calm to those who find you. you are selfless, listening with patience, a place of safety despite the chaos. you are the connection between strangers, all wishing for something better.
