Oh my goodness, I'm obsessed with this show again.

Maybe because I'm craving some slashy goodness, but for the past week it's been dragging me back into fannish happenings. The show's not without it problems, to be sure, but I can deal with them. The weird 90s visual effects have their own charm, too. It's just a shame that CBS/Paramount only ( Read more... )

Yeah, that fic for queer_fest just isn't working. I'm not going to be able to post it today, since everything I try to write is just... awkward. I feel like it's more show instead of tell, you know? Plus, I really want to write something good for this character (see icon), since she is awesome. I have a few things started for a few different prompts, but ( Read more... )
