three years, and i'm still here

(sequel to this post)

yeaka will be baffled if she ever found out that one Loony Fan™ who wanted more vengekhan out of her is still alive and kicking, and begging other people to write that one pair

if y'all thought i'd move on, you're sorely mistaken. i made a whole movie pitch that would canonize vengekhan if accepted, solely to spite yeaka(and also to slake my own twisted desires), wrote and deleted a number of fics, got a buncha one-shots through, featured the pairing in a crossover with dc, and if y'all thought i would give up, you better remember that you can break a computer box but you can't break the will of a man, because my forbidden otp once again has a chokehold on me, stronger than ever

yeaka will be baffled if she ever knew how many debates shipping vengekhan landed me in

yeaka will be baffled to know that her fic that she deleted led me to live one of the craziest periods of my life and i survived it

yeaka will be baffled to know that i'm still out there, trying to get more people to ship my forbidden otp

yeaka will be baffled if she ever found out i took a pairing she prolly didn't give much thought, and turned it into a full-blown foil to spirk as well as the most complex pairing in the history of the leyenar fleet

yeaka's reaction when she finds out that i took vengeance/khan and perfected it would be priceless

edit 01/12/2024:the fic that yeaka deleted is now available for reading here

Fanbinding: Inside the River by yeaka

Starfleet sends Jim a spouse and an oddly vacant honeymoon.

When I saw the lovely typeset and bind @ashmouthbooks did of "Inside the River" for the @renegadepublishing annual exchange, I was struck by inspiration. They had done this gorgeous two page spread for the title, and between that, it being a TOS/AOS fic I hadn't read yet but looked amazing, and the idea for the case, I *immediately* set to work on my first book of 2023.

I have this very pretty marbled paper that I wanted to try contouring a green fabric against, and that is what I ended up doing!

I am VERY happy with the end result, but it was a complete pain in the ass to make this happen. Each of the green pieces was separately cut out and worked together with cloth and then layered over the base with the blue marbled paper.

I also decided to test hubris and see how thin of a book I could round and back. I was mostly successful!

Thank you @ashmouthbooks for the lovely typeset and thank you Yeaka for the beautiful story!

Spock/Kirk fanfiction recs for @merryfinches (and anyone else who’s interested)

I am a TOS girlie but I do enjoy a reboot/AOS fic too.

Something Smart to Do - kianspo

A very sweet M-rated 5+1 where Spock and Kirk get fake-married on the regular.

Treasures - yeaka

E-rated Pon Farr fic. Romantic but also hot as hell. Cute idea about Jim serving on a Vulcan ship and all the other Vulcans being jealous of Spock.

The Lotus Eaters - aldora89

A novel length fic that is genuinely one of my favourite works of fiction ever. The world building is incredible and the plot is so gripping. And the romance! *swoon*

The Squire of Eros - aldora89

Another brilliant work by this writer. This fic really perfectly captures the tone of TOS and is really sweet and funny.

The Bond - WhatIfImaMermaid

A sweet sexy fic featuring amnesia and fake/real bonding.

master of a nothing place - strzyga

This one is basically PWP lol. Spock goes feral on an away mission. Kirk is there for the ride.

I’ll add some more if I remember!

💛💙SPIRK FIC REC💙💛

When I first found this fic the summary was so short that I really didn't know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised!

It's an AOS AU (Yes, I know there have been a lot of them lately, I was going through a phase lol, I'll try to switch things up a bit soon) in which Starfleet requires all it's captains to be married to provide stability and support on long missions. If they don't find one of their own before they take command then they're subject to an arrange marriage via Starfleet Command matching them up with a suitable officer based on submitted questionnaires.

As such, Kirk is being provided with a spouse and is en route to meet them for their ceremony and subsequent honeymoon. However, although Kirk and Spock are not unhappy with their assigned partners, they are a bit baffled by their honeymoon resort, which appears to be deserted.

It's a mystery laced love story and it's altogether quite endearing. 🥰

Uncouth by yeaka ~1.6k words, Rated T one of my favorite 3zun dynamic is xiyao being obnoxiously flirtatious and mingjue having an aneurysm about it AJDFHLSDKJHA

Tender Tentacle Tribulations by Shiome @evilhasnever ~7.9k words, Rated E 🦑 MONSTER-FUCKING!🐙IT'S REALLY CUTE AND LIGHTHEARTED and horny AND I LAUGHED AT SEVERAL THINGS (which i evidently posted bloopers for!) BUT THE LINE THAT HAS STAYED IN MY HEAD FOREVER is Nie Huaisang asking: "How hard can it be to sit on a dick, Yao-Yao?"

Where Did The Party Go by @tilwesink ~9.1k words, Rated T I was laughing for the majority of this fic ngl--!! SongXueXiao isn't my main ship but Xue Yang in particular is hilarious here and the background XiYao is *CHEF'S KISS*! Perfect bridezilla A-Yao!

I am also realizing that I, uh, was able to choose these off the top of my head because have podficced all of these and remember vividly having to pause multiple times to laugh during each recording process lsdkfhlaksdjfhashl HONESTLY i didn't intend for this to be a self-promo HOWEVER i do feel inclined to share some art I drew for these!

Fic Recs (Ask Meme)

[sobeautifullyobsessed]

Happy Valentine's, and you asked me a question, I will answer it, so please do not ignore.

"Unless you mean to say that the ship itself should be his beloved?" You are 3000% correct. As for what drove me to lash out at you before, just ask yeaka.

I'm still not entirely sure what you're aiming to accomplish, hon - but if it's to accuse me of plagiarism, you are seriously barking up the wrong tree. Likewise, if you're angry that I dared to write Khan with an Original Character rather than someone from canon, I truly don't give a fig.

I work in a field where I have to deal with strangers being dishonest with me nearly every day. So much so, that I know a lie within a few moments of our conversation starting. When I share with other folks the myriad ways that Liars have devised to rip off a retailer in the course of returning something, they (as I used to be) are shocked to learn the many ingenious means of deception. My reply is always, 'Well, you wouldn't think of something like that because you're a honest person'. And likewise, it never occurred to me to look up the word 'yeaka' as I figured it was a typo, rather than a basis for an accusation.

However, one of my dear tumblr friends thought to look it up and discovered it's an AO3 penname of someone who writes Khan fic, shipping him with various canon characters. For the record, I don't recall ever reading anything of theirs - nor have I visited their works now out of curiosity. I didn't think to look for myself as some means of defense because I am simply NOT A PLAGIARIST. Every fic I've published is based on my own imagination, including those that resulted from RP with partners who granted me permission to write them.

If on the other hand, you simply can't tolerate shipping Khan (or any canon character) with someone non-canon, I'd advise you to keep to your own lane and block tags for fics that may raise your ire. If you're curious, though, you might discover there is a wealth of fics featuring OCs, as well as stories featuring crossover characters from completely unrelated fandoms. Make a quick search of 'Khanlolly' alone, and you'll find many, many stories featuring romance between Khan and Molly Hooper from BBC Sherlock, basically because he wears Benedict's face. Khanlolly is an offspring of the Sherlolly fandom.

In short, fan fiction Authors are free to play with whatever characters they want in whatever manner they choose. As of today, there are no fic police to restrict what can and cannot be written. If you don't like, don't read. That will ensure peace of mind for everyone involved.

Current Tag Game

Tagged by @waitmyturtles @lurkingshan and @wen-kexing-apologist!

Current Time: 12:27 PM

Current activity: Taking a lunch break from work between back-to-back meetings (during which I sometimes post to tumblr when they are not useful meetings lol).

Currently thinking about: Balancing work stuff with Palestine stuff with Shadow theories! Also trying not to think about medical news I am waiting for....my brain is a stressful place rn.

Current favourite song: So I fell down a TXT FreeFall rabbit hole; fell in love with Skipping Stones, which then led me to the artist who created that song, Hanroro, and am now obsessed with one of her other songs, "Even if you leave,". Her tone, mood, just everything. Obsessed.

Currently reading: These days I only read fanfic and nonfic. Oh and the Batman: Wayne Family Adventures webtoon lolol Shoutout to Yeaka on A03 who (among other things) writes pitch-perfect Ustukushii Kare ficlets that get me through the day; here's the one I read most recently.

Currently watching: lol here we go (in no particular order but semi-ranked in terms of how much space they are taking up in my brain?):

Shadow the Series: binged all 7 eps yesterday, eagerly awaiting the back half!

I Feel You Linger in the Air: finale this week; this one was really hard for me to watch at first due to the the sexual assaults in the first four episodes, but it's a really gorgeous piece of work and I'm glad I stuck with it (I did have a real moment to myself where I thought if this pattern was going to continue I would have to drop it, but luckily it did not keep going). There are a few powerful scenes that I've written about separately that will live rent-free in my head.

Kimi ni wa todokanai / I cannot reach you / won't get through to you: I'm watching this one grey thanks to the incredible sub work by @lurkingteapot (follow @kiminaisubs!) and am absolutely loving it. These are such wonderful characters. It's so interesting to be watching this at the same time as the next one, because the similarities and differences make comparing the two a richer experience watching both!

Kimi to nara koi wo shite mite mo / If it's with you: Amane has rocketed up to one of my favourite characters of all time. Love how the family stuff is integrated into this show. I think I actually like this show more than I cannot reach you, but I've been providing the minimal insight I can into drafts of the subs for the other show so have been thinking about it more.

One Room Angel: very excited for this one, the humour is pitch-perfect and the themes are my cup of tea. I love supernatural stuff, and mysteries especially around supernatural mechanics, and psychology, and self esteem issues. and all that good stuff.

Kinou nani tabeta / What Did You Eat Yesterday?: Love that this show has retained the heart and quality of the previous work. Loving this a lot. It's not higher on the list only because I don't need to think about it a lot, it's SO legible, and so well done.

Mr Cinderella 2: I am having a FANTASTIC time with this show lol it is such a pulp; there is high drama, paranormal elements (rituals and potions), insidious psychological tricks, and really solid relationship writing. This show starts with the main couple together, and shows how they deal with all of these external forces--which works for me in a way it doesn't with Kiseki below because their response as a couple at first is to unite and shore up; they support one another through it. It's when they start trying to handle things on their own (and this is justified by the narrative) that things fall apart.

Kiseki: Dear to Me: Like everyone else, I have fallen in love with Ai Di the murder kitten. I think the mains aren't resonating with me as much because their problems are all external rather than internal, and they keep trying to handle them individually (i.e. without ever working as a couple to face these issues), but they are also very pretty and I appreciate all the lap-sitting.

Absolute Zero: Honestly I now watch this show with annoyance like "What are you doing with this scene, New Siwaj? Why?". The mechanics of the show are still interesting but I am mad at it so I now approach those questions with annoyance rather than interest lol

Venus in the Sky: I liked this one way more than I thought I would; it's miles better than Check Out and far more coherent. It's a decent pulp!

My Universe: I'm a bit behind on this one but mostly caught up now (one story behind); the quality of these stories varies wildly but it's an interesting short story format! I'm keeping track of thoughts for all of the stories and will do a post when I'm done if anyone wants to know which are worth watching (since they all stand alone)

My Dear Gangster Oppa: This just got started; the first episode was pretty! I think it's going to be a solid and enjoyable pulp lol

You Are Mine: This one I am not enjoying. Too much boss-using-his-powers-over-his-subordinate-to-force-proximity-and-not-actually-communicating, and the women pushing this male secretary at his boss as fodder really sits wrong with me.

Dangerous Romance: I have very little sympathy for the rich boy who doesn't think through the consequences of his actions or the people who enable him, and I'm annoyed that the Sailom character we got at the beginning of the series who was self-aware, confident, clever, and had his priorities straight seems to have disappeared. There is no internal consistency in this show.

Taskmaster series 16: I love this dorky show from England lol comedians are given absurd tasks and then are judged; it's got a very strong undertone-turned-overtone of kink, and yet is family-friendly, and I find that fascinating. What a good show lol

Current favourite character: HMMMM. Amane from If It's With You comes first to mind, to be honest. He's gay, he fucks, he has self esteem issues but he's working on them, he's brave enough to be honest to his crush even though he's been burned before, and he asks for what he really wants, and then hold hope that he might actually get it. And his behaviour around his crush is relatably cringe. I LOVE HIM. [@wen-kexing-apologist wrote this before I saw yours but YES, sad boy hiding behind happiness is THE BEST]

Current WIP: I have 4 asks that I have in my drafts that I owe @wen-kexing-apologist, @mynameisnotthepoint (this wasn't really an ask per se but it was an excuse to gush so I'm taking it), @wanderlust-in-my-soul, and @waitmyturtles. I have been working on all of them and do still plan on answering them! I also have a draft re: Hidden Agenda the novel vs the show that I realllllly need to just stop fussing with and post.

Inside The River by yeaka

The second of three bindings for Annamon (ABT Fanbinding) for the 2022 @renegadepublishing binding exchange! This is Kirk/Spock arranged marriage fic, where they’re sent to a tropical planet for their honeymoon and have to get to know each other while solving a mystery…

Squareback A5 HB bound in yellow dubletta bookcloth with Mediterranean lemon endpapers and a title painted on the spine in green metallic fabric paint. I wanted to lean into the soft summery honeymoon vibe with this and I’m really happy with how it came out! The typesetting is crisper in comparison, I used a vey modem looking typeface for the body and two different Star Trek fonts for the chapter titles and the running headers/footers, for a sleek Star Trek-esque look.
