Coffee's Fic Café, Redux!

Vilkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome…

So, cool people.

Once upon a time, I had originally thought that sticking a short blurb at the beginning of my fanfiction list would be enough of an introduction to get to know me, as well as assuming (at the time) that people would focus more on my stories and less upon my general history...these days, however, that may no longer be the case.

This is kinda why I hope to start over almost entirely from scratch, as well as go into a bit more detail about what it is I write about and why I write it in the first place, so...here goes nothing.

ABOUT ME:

Since my first memory of Star Wars involved the Ewoks in "Return Of The Jedi", I guess I officially count as an Elder Fan, and therefore have been in the SW fandom ever since childhood. Since then, as you all will see below, I've done a bunch of work in several facets of the Galaxy Far, Far Away; as well as dabbling in other fandoms in order to broaden my horizons somewhat. I've also started to do a little fanart recently, so once I've got this pinned post up and running, I will eventually add my pieces to the proper fandom sections.

ABOUT MY WRITING STYLE/PREFERENCES:

Sooooo...when I mention in a fic that the romance will be 'slow burn', chances are the main plotline will probably brought about the exact same way. This means that, if we're going by recent examples, the Female Reader will start witnessing some hints of future conflicts from her extended family by Chapter 9 (TBB: Kiss Me, Captain), or else finally getting a moment alone with a certain space pirate by Chapter 9 (SC: Anomaly). This also kinda means that I need my audience to be ultra-patient with me sometimes, as I'm just not that kind of writer who jumps straight into the "woo-hoo" without a literal ton of preparation beforehand.

WHAT I NEED FROM YOU:

So, what does this mean for any and all interested readers?

Simple--I need likes (❤️); I need reblogs (🔁); and if you're feeling really excited, horrified, etc. about a recent chapter, comments (🗨️). It's as simple as that, because it's feedback that makes the world go 'round, and because this site is NOT Tiktok, i.e. views alone WON'T let me know if anybody enjoys my hard work. Therefore, hit the proper icons when my updates come, and I won't ever end up throwing my efforts away in frustration because people weren't bothered to interact.

Anyways! Now that I've gotten through all my explanations, here is a current record of all my fanworks:

Kiss Me, Captain (Captain Howzer x Female Reader)

The Surprise Guest (Crosshair x Reader)

Catalogue of Futuristic Portrayals of Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums (GLAM) in Sci-Fi Films and TV Episodes

GLAM 3017 is the theme of this month’s GLAM Blog Club. Where do we think GLAM will be in a thousand years?

Sci-fi as a genre has often predicted the future. So I have decided to create a catalogue of sci-fi films and TV featuring portrayals of galleries, libraries, archives and museums in the future, as I think these films may predict the future of GLAM.

Andrew Kelly argues that Star Wars is set in the past, so is not an example of what things might be like in the future. I would argue that it is just as likely that we could be watching those stories from the past in the future. I think Star Wars films such as Attack of the Clones and Rogue One have portrayed some of the most compelling archives of the future, so I have included these films in my catalogue.

Many of the films and TV in this catalogue may not be set 1000 years into the future, however I think they assist the imagination in seeing what may be possible, or indeed a reality, in the GLAM world in the future. I am making a huge assumption that humanity will still exist in some form in a millennium from now, assuming we have not exhausted all of our resources, destroyed the planet and each other in warfare, and that Mother Earth doesn’t reclaim what is rightfully hers, I am airing on the side of blind optimism. Let’s hope major change happens to make a sustainable future for humanity possible.

If you have any suggestions for the catalogue please contact me because this database is a work in progress, and I would love to add to it and discuss the selection with my fellow GLAM Bloggers.

The catalogue is arranged chronologically from release date so that you can follow the progression of portrayals of futuristic GLAM through different periods in time where technology and ideas change over time, and perhaps even influence filmmakers and TV producers.

Warning: I have attempted to avoid spoilers in this catalogue, however please be warned that the stills and plot information may contain some key details about the films and TV episodes that you may wish to avoid if you haven’t yet seen them and wish to see them in the future (pardon the pun). The films and TV episodes included in the catalogue in chronological order are: All Our Yesterdays in Star Trek, Season 3, Episode 23; Visitor of a Museum; Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones; Silence in the Library in Dr Who, Fourth Series, Episode Eight; Forest of the Dead in Dr Who, Fourth Series, Episode Nine; Robot & Frank; and Rogue One.

I have included skeleton records as I do plan to update this blog, and I also have a list of possible films and TV episodes that I want to watch and re-watch before adding them to the catalogue. I really should have started this catalogue earlier in May, but it has been a very busy month!

Plot summary - Second in a prequel trilogy to the first film in an epic space opera series, Star Wars, released in 1971. Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones is set ten years after Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. Anakin Skywalker first met the Queen of Naboo, Padmé Amidala, in Episode I when he was a child. In Episode II Anakin is an apprentice Jedi, and Padmé is a Senator. Anakin is assigned to the Senator as a bodyguard after a failed assassination attempt on her life. Obi-Wan Kenobi is Anakin’s Jedi Master. While Anakin protects the Senator, Obi-Wan investigates the assassination attempt, and uncovers a dark plot.

GLAM plot - During Obi-Wan Kenobi’s investigations, he visits the Jedi Temple Archives. A physical repository of the Jedi Order’s knowledge and history, some of the archive material is restricted due to its sensitive nature, such as secrets about how the Jedi’s use the force. Information can be accessed in the Archives, but cannot be removed from it. Chief Librarian and Jedi Master Jocasta Nu assisted Obi-Wan in his research in the Archives. The electronic data is often portrayed as holograms in the case of maps of galaxies, as seen in the still above, blue lights represent the electronic data in the Archives.
