"you're my home." from the prompt list ☺️

I struggled with this one, but managed!

They laid on the narrow bunk, a tangle of limbs so tightly knotted it was hard to tell where one man ended and the other began. Pressed up against each other, their heartrates synced, their breathing evened out.

Malcolm had taken a particularly bad beating earlier today at the hands of some supposedly friendly and definitely-not-paranoid aliens. Phlox had given him some pain meds and prescribed him bed rest, which Malcolm had uncharacteristically agreed to—before adding a condition that Trip be there.

So here they were, on Malcolm’s bed, holding each other. Trip was sure Malcolm had fallen asleep by now. He just started to fall asleep himself, when he heard a soft murmur.

Trip opened his eyes. “What was that?”

“I feel at home.” Malcolm’s tone of voice sounded vaguely awed, like he was marvelling at this fact.

Trip chuckled and rubbed his back. “That a good thing?”

“I’ve never… felt at home anywhere,” Malcolm admitted. He lifted his head and blinked sleepily up at Trip, then a smile spread across his lips. “I think you’re my home.”

“I think Phlox’s concoction is making ya loopy.”

“Maybe so,” Malcolm said. “But what I’m saying is true.” He snuggled closer against Trip again, mindless of his bruises. “You’re my home.”

Trip held him tighter, resting his chin atop Malcolm’s head as he gently stroked his arm. After a moment, he whispered, “And you’re mine, Mal.”

“Guitar Man/What I’d Say”

This was written by Jerry Reed and hit 53 Hot Country Singles in 1967. One of the people who heard it was Elvis who decided to cut it, obviously feeling a kinship with the wandering guitar picker in the song. At the time, he was putting together songs for his movie Clambake and did some sessions in Nashville. Along with Nashville heavies like Chip Young, Charlie McCoy, and Floyd Cramer were the surviving members of Elvi’s first combo, Scotty Moore and D.J. Fontana.

Unfortunately, they just couldn’t nail the groove Elvis wanted and so he gave the royal decree, “Get me that redneck picker who’s on the original tune.” The way Jerry Reed tells it, he was fishing way out in the South Georgia swamps when he got the word and made it to Nashville in 45 minutes. I’m sure he exaggerates but the combination was dynamite.

This song has been called one of pure joy as the band spins off into a little of Ray Charles’s classic “What I’d Say” just for the hell of it. And dammit, they kept playing, busting out a ripping rendition of Jimmy Reed’s “Big Boss Man” and another one Reed seems to have written just this session, the appropriately titled “U.S. Male.”

Unfortunately, that’s all they got down. As we said earlier, Elvis was putting together songs for another one of those usually forgettable soundtracks to his equally forgettable movies. However, he was upset that his “Hollywood Era” meant an entire generation of popular music passed him by. So for Clambake, he went back to the country and blues he grew up on while telling his music publisher to look for songs like that.

And that’s where shit happens. A guy named Freddy Bienstock worked for Hill & Range Music Publishing. Music publishers make sure the proper people get paid for a song, including performers, songwriters, and just general people who own a piece of a song. Bienstock liked to brag that for the first 12 years of his career, Elvis never looked at a song unless it was cleared by him.

Elvis didn’t write his stuff and Bienstock didn’t like rock & roll, but he’s the guy who brought Otis Blackwell, Doc Pomus, and Leiber & Stoller to Elvis and that’s a promising start. However, everyone got lazy with the soundtracks because, like the movies, they were guaranteed money-makers regardless of quality. So why not dangle a spot on an Elvis Presley album to a young and hungry songwriter who’s willing to give the nice music publisher a huge percentage for giving this chance.

That’s the music business, folks. However, as the decade wore on and the soundtracks started selling less - and songwriting, in general, was getting more respect in the hep world - fewer songwriters would give up that extra dosh. One of those songwriters was Jerry Reed, who had already established himself as a successful songwriter and session musician in Nashville. This did wind up making him a star but Jerry told Bienstock to take a hike regardless.

Elvis left the business to the businessmen (and they screwed him over for trusting them) and it sort of ruined the overall vibe. “Guitar Man” was a Billboard Country chart topper and hit 43 on the pop charts. Clambake continued the downward slide of the soundtracks, just squeaking out a Top 40 and selling barely 200,000 copies. He had two more to do before the ‘68 NBC comeback special that revitalized his career.

But that’s a whole ‘nother story.

I was curious about which Star Trek shows had the most human vs non-human characters, so I made this graph. I counted all major characters plus characters who were in at least 10 episodes of each respective show (with a few exceptions for incredibly minor characters who are technically in more than ten episodes but have barely any/no lines). A full list of characters included is below the cut.

TOS:

Part/Non-Human: Spock

Human: Kirk, Mccoy, Scotty, Uhura, Sulu, Chekov, Chapel

TNG:

Part/Non-Human: Data, Troi, Worf, Guinan

Human: Picard, Riker, La Forge, Crusher, Wesley, Yar, Pulaski, O’Brien, Ogawa

DS9:

Part/Non-Human: Kira, Odo, Quark, Jadzia, Rom, Nog, Garak, Dukat, Worf, Weyoun, Martok, Leeta, Ezri, Damar, Female Changeling, Winn

Human: Sisko, Bashir, Jake, O’Brien, Keiko, Kasidy, Ross

VOY:

Part/Non-Human: Torres, Neelix, EMH, Tuvok, Kes, Seven (part Borg counts as not entirely human to me), Seska, Naomi, Icheb

Human: Janeway, Chakotay, Paris, Kim

ENT:

Part/Non-Human: T’Pol, Phlox, Soval, Shran

Human: Archer, Reed, Tucker, Sato, Mayweather, Forrest

DIS:

Part/Non-Human: Saru, Tyler (debatable but I’m counting him as partly non-human), L’Rell, Book, T’Rina, Nhan, Rillak, Linus, Zora, Adira (again, debatable, but they’ve got a symbiont so they’re not entirely human to me), Gray

Human: Burnham, Stamets (complicated case but I counted him as still human), Tilly, Culber, Lorca (mirror universe characters are still human, I think), Georgiou, Detmer, Owosekun, Rhys, Bryce, Cornwell, Airiam (she’s still human), Pike, Jett, Nilsson, Pollard, Vance

PIC:

Part/Non-Human: Picard (for part of the show at least), Elnor, Soji, Narek, Seven, Laris/Talinn (I am just pretending they’re the same character for simplicity), Jack (I guess???)

Human: Musiker, Jurati, Rios, Adam, Riker, Crusher, Shaw, Sidney

LWD:

Part/Non-Human: Tendi, Shaxs, T’Ana, Barnes, Kayshon

Human: Mariner, Boimler, Rutherford, Freeman, Ransom, Billups

PRO:

Part/Non-Human: Dal, Gwyn, Zero, Rok-Tahk, Jankom, Murf, Hologram Janeway, Diviner, Drednok

SNW:

Part/Non-Human: Spock, Una, Hemmer

Human: Pike, La’an, Uhura, Chapel, M’Benga, Ortegas

"Please don't cry." For the three word prompts.<3<3<3

I keep turning the ones that sound angsty into pure fluff!

“Malcolm…”

“Yes, love?”

“What is this?”

Malcolm blinked, looked down at the ring he was holding in his hands, then back up at his beloved. “It’s… a proposal. Was that not obvious?”

Trip continued to stare at him, lips parted, heart thumping. His mind was reeling. Was this really happening? He brought a hand to his mouth and murmured, “Oh my god.”

Malcolm frowned. “Trip?”

“Oh my god,” Trip repeated.

“Trip… are you crying?” Malcolm stood up in a rush, setting his proposal aside in favour of gabbing Trip’s upper arms. “Please don’t cry. Was it not enough? I didn’t know if you wanted something big and fancy, but I figured just us, on shore leave, would be nice…”

“Oh, Mal,” Trip breathed, reaching up to cup Malcolm’s face. “I love you so much.”

Understanding dawned on Malcolm and he looked away with a flush.

“Malcolm, honey.” Trip tilted Malcolm’s face back so they were eye to eye again. “Yes. Absolutely, yes.”

Malcolm broke into a smile. “Oh, thank god. I was worried I’d done something wrong…”

“No. No, you did everything right.” Trip brought him close and kissed him like his life depended on it before pulling away. He ran his fingers through Malcolm’s hair and sighed in content, staring into those sparkling grey eyes. “You’re wonderful,” he said. “I love you so fucking much.”

Malcolm blushed once more, and it was absolutely adorable. “I love you, too,” he whispered.

In my brain this takes place a little bit after the whole new years fiasco and Scotty is dwelling on it and therefore messing up alot, and getting yelled at for it doesn't make it any better. Luckily Reed is here to save the day with his magic :]

[max--phillips]

Indiana just launched a “snitch line” for people to report schools for teaching about LGBTQ issues, Black history, and other topics.

On Monday, the AG, Todd Rokita, launched this “Eyes on Eduction” portal where students, parents, and teachers alike can report… “objectionable curricula, policies, or programs affecting children.” While they hide behind the suggestion that this is to stop “political ideology - either left or right” from being forced on kids, we all know that this is really a tip line for parents to complain that someone told their kid gay people exist or slavery was a real thing that happened to Black people.

I’m not going to lie, despite this being from the office of the attorney general, I don’t think this is much more than a wall of shame functionally. The AG’s office looks at submissions, takes the credible ones, and publishes them on the portal for anyone to see. The PDFs of the so-called evidence also include names of teachers.

Anyway, unsurprisingly, people have been flooding the portal with junk submissions, as pointed out by the wonderful Erin Reed (@/ErinInTheMorn on Twitter) in her article on the portal:

A report that Godzilla was witnessed with a trans flag

Indiana Jones slapping a Nazi

A report of a famous picture of Trump next to Rudy Giuliani in drag

Multiple reports citing the Bible for teenage pregnancy

A confession purporting to be from Breaking Bad character Walter White

The script for the Bee Movie (classic)

The script to Oppenheimer

The script for Eurotrip, with a note not to tell Scotty

Young Sheldon saying “Bazinga”

So ALL OF THAT IS TO SAY. Here's another link to the portal. Whatever you do, don't add to the list above and flood the portal, making it nearly impossible for the poor AG's office to sort through all the submissions and find credible submissions! That would be sooo uncalled for.

Anyway, side note for you: if you're thinking to yourself, "damn, Todd Rokita, that name sounds awfully familiar," you may be thinking of the time in 2022 he said he was going to investigate Dr. Caitlin Bernard for providing an abortion procedure to a 10 year old girl who had fled Ohio to receive care because Ohio's abortion ban did not provide an exception for minor children who became pregnant as a result of rape. Ultimately, Indiana state courts found him to have violated the law and engaged in attorney misconduct due to his public statements on the situation. Yet, he is still AG. This guy has sucked as long as I can remember. He was Secretary of State of Indiana from 2002-2010, then he was a member of the US House of Representatives from Indiana's 4th district (which my hometown is unfortunately a part of) from 2011-2019, and has now been AG since 2021. For perspective, I was born in 1997--the year he joined the Secretary of State's office as general counsel, then later became deputy secretary of state. He's been doing his damndest to ruin this state as long as I've been alive.

Also, his birthday is Friday (February 9th) according to his wikipedia page. Definitely don't give him any birthday presents by way of the submission portal, okay? Good talk

[ales-ttv-faleures]

at some mid-point between breaking up with Piper and dating Magnolia, Scotty was kinda super duper desperate for affection. he didn’t really have any friends and, the ones he did, were NOT down to give Scotty a solid hug!

so whats he turn to instead? one night stands.

and who’s he find? Ponder Wanderlust.

(Scotty voice “Which is just an aesthetic-ass name fuck yeah i wanna bang a guy who’s last name is wanderlust!”

in Ponder’s little corner, he IS already dating Reed, but he is not cheating. They’re in an open relationship. Their rules include telling eachother before they have a sexual encounter, ask about clean status, and use protection.

Scotty doesn’t have anything so they go wild. And they go wild a few more times, but then something or other comes up in Ponder and Reed’s relationship and they close it. Scotty and Ponder fall out of contact, he marries and divorces Magnolia, and, at some point or another, Ponder and Reed have Pudge.

Scotty doesn’t actually know about Reed for the entirety of his and Ponder’s relationship. Ponder thought he told him, and maybe he did and Scotty just forgot, either way, they have different knowledge points about Ponder’s wife.

Paunch and Scotty have a very on-and-off relationship. they love eachother, but Paunch is nervous that he is disappointing Suet. they are… not quite friends with benefits. they go on dates, bang and cuddle every so often, but the arent properly dating.

Paunch is NOT about to fuck a stranger but, like, if Scotty wants to do that, he totally can! Paunch will not mind at all, he doesn’t, however, want Scotty to be having stands when they are Actively Dating. Scotty’s alright with this setup!

anyway, as said, Scotty and Ponder met at a Hanukkah. neither of them were ever expecting to see eachother again, so they have a bit of an awkward meeting (i don’t imagine telling your client/son-in-law that you’ve banged both his dad and his uncle would ever go over very smoothly) and they talk a bit. and they bang again, bc Ponder & Reed worked out that issue and their son is an adult now.

Scotty & Reed find out abt eachother and become friends and, one day, Ponder invites the two of them for a threesome. they agree. Scotty has fucked all of the living parental Beagle Line.

if Scotty is dating Paunch, why would he fuck Tubby's uncle and aunt?

oh! well
