I am super sad this week

[kayliemalinza]

School was tiring and made me despair for the future of this country, I worked some more on the Lady!Pike/Winona which always depresses me, I spent multiple hundreds of dollars on textbooks and don't have the financial aid for it yet, the weather teased us with two days of below-90 temps and then got hot again, and my brother stole my dog. Woe

It's funny how much vomiting looks like crying, when someone else is doing it. And feels like crying, under her hands. The way his body jerks and jerks.

"Shh," Nyota says, after a moment's thought.

Where she's crouched, she can only see the smooth skin that goes from temple to jaw, boyish and sort of amazing and completely impersonal except for the dark slant of damp lashes, the very corner of his eye wrapping around the edge of his cheek. It's. It's really unpleasant to think about. Not that she knows Kirk well to start with, but he's hard to miss and everyone remembers his eyes and this anonymity that comes in broken flashes as he moans and twists his head repeatedly against his shoulder, like a dog dreaming of thunder: it makes her want to wash her hands.

Instead she strokes the hard ridge of his spine. She is not particularly good at comforting people, but, "You are such a trooper," she tells him, putting her mouth to his ear, or as close as she can manage, and pitching her voice low in what she hopes is a soothing register,

OK, two things you already know from IM: YAY YOU WROTE THE UHURA ONE, which pleases me because j'adore Kirk/Uhura en secret and I was thinking of your Xena fic when I read this prompt anyway.

Secondly~~~~ it ends, and I didn't want it to, but then I have to consider why and, you know, I shouldn't really want Gaila to rape a roofied Jim. But just. Once he woke up...? idek.

And for some reason I really appreciate that he was roofied, rather than just getting stupidly drunk or some crazy alien disease. It's probably something to do with the gendering of fandom. idk.

NOw, quoting:
completely impersonal except for the dark slant of damp lashes
Pretty, and I like the idea of anonymity here-- because Uhura and Kirk have met, obviously, but there's no real proof about how well they knew each other during the academy.

the pharmaceuticals Gaila keeps under her bed where she won't have to look at them.
This is one of those iceberg lines, throwaway details that have great import. <3

She's left the towel draped over the upper half of

Once he wakes up they can and will have as much sex as they like! Off-screen. *shifty eyes*

Also I am glad you liked the roofie-ing. I think. I dunno. I had boosette's "The More Adventerous Wanderer" loosely in mind, and there Gaila is, by contrast, not roofie'd but sort of stupidly drunk and Jim helps her home etc. (What, me, reverse stuff in lieu of coming up with new things? neverrrr.) I like Jim better as someone who knows his limits, maybe, in some specialized areas.

Gailaaaa. I wrote stories awhile ago about her as a female who enslaves men using sex as a tool and who is, also, enslaved (by women and men both, ahaha), but anyway I think I am certainly pleased by the problems, because they are, as you say, interesting, especially in how they shift depending where one starts. Or something.

Does this count as yaoi, then? I've never been clear on the exact meaning of the term.

IDK, it's not the sex that's the important part-- not to the extent of tab A in slot B-- because even if there was full sex, it'd be about something else anyway. So don't let hypothetical porn hold you back from writing a sequel, is what I'm saying.

*machinates*

Ahaha, the "yaoi" here is figurative. References: fandomwank and urbandictionary.
