Thank you @curator-on-ao3 for the questions & the template - to another lovely year of fic!

1. Fandoms you wrote for this year

Star Trek - mainly Voyager with a dash of Picard, TNG and Discovery

2. favorite fic you wrote this year

That has to be “Things that Fall”, just because it was my first foray into creative writing and it holds a special place in my heart. Also, I’m quite pleased with how it turned out!

Burnished Slate (and wild horses) by CynthiaER

4. favorite opening line/scene you wrote this year

”She's panting and you try to tear your eyes away from her heaving chest, but you fail, miserably.” (Four times she denies you and the one time she doesn't)

5. favorite ending line/scene you wrote this year

"Go back to sleep, Kathryn." (I’m a little tied up right now)

6. a trope you wrote this year

8. a fic regret from this year

The WIPs I didn’t manage to finish honestly - but there’s still time and I'm excited to continue working on them!

9. a song that helped you write

I don't really listen much to music while I write, but most of all it'd probably be jazzy and lofi HipHop beats

16. favorite character to write about this year

I mean always, always Kathryn Janeway but I was definitely ambushed by my love for Laira Rillak and T'Rina so that was a fun surprise...

17. a fic you didn’t expect to write

I Will Follow Where You Lead

18. most memorable comment/review

Oh that is hard - I've been lucky enough to receive many, many lovely comments. The ones that stick out are the flailing ones, the beautifully thought out ones, the kind commenters that keep on coming back - they all have a special place in my heart!

19. trends you noticed in your writing this year

I write a lot about connection, what prevents it, what it takes; communication and a lot of adulting about feelings. With copious amounts of smut sprinkled in there...

20. fics you wanted to write but didn’t

An exploration of how different names for a person, titles, nicknames, endearments change how we interact and perceive ourselves. Maybe next year ;)

21. something you want to write next year

I want to continue working on my timetravel-PIC-Seven-meets-VOY-Janeway-Gay-Panic-TM-Ensues fic - it's been a bit of a wrestle with that one...

So I may have watched the latest episode of Discovery and a ship fell out. Who knew. I present to you:

I Will Follow Where You Lead T’Rina/Laira Rillak || Star Trek Discovery What if Presidents T'Rina and Rillak knew each other, a long time ago? What if the appearance of Discovery brought them back into each others' lives? Well, what then?
