affections

some of the ways they show their affection for you. housewardens version

notes: bit of angst at the end of malleus' section, i'm quite sorry guys.

RIDDLE ROSEHEARTS

when most think of riddle, patience is not the first thing that comes to mind. this is because they don't have the privilege of seeing the riddle you get to see. you had been studying with him for around an hour and a half. for the past half hour you had been stuck on a certain topic, no matter how many chapters of the textbook you read or how many times he tried to explain it, you just couldn't wrap your head around it. had you been anyone else, riddle would be incredibly frustrated, and perhaps a bit desperate for them to get a grip, but you were not just anyone. so he sat with you throughout it, vowing to help and find the perfect study method. ace and deuce gawk at his gentle behavior, a stark contrast to the yelling they endured earlier. his favoritism towards you is outrageous, not that you mind.

LEONA KINGSCHOLAR

is tired, very often. he isn't always asleep when he's seen laying around. but can't seem to find the will to get up and do something. despite his constant fatigue, he will always find ways to remind you that he loves you. forcing you to lay with him is one of them, he'll wrap his arms around you and nuzzle into your neck before asking you to speak. it can be about anything really, most of the time you'll talk about how your day went. he always listens, his eyes are shut but you know he's invested because of the never ending remarks he'll make as you go on. someone was bothering you? he's just called them the most hilarious name you can think of, not wanting you to be bothered by such a lowlife. he doesn't have to see you to know what expression you have on your face. it's quite amazing really, he knows just what to say and when to say it, and even knows when he should stay quiet. it's quite simple, really. but he loves it, though not nearly as much as he loves you. (a/n almost called him eepy while writing his part haha)

AZUL ASHENGROTTO

azul is very devoted to his work, but when it comes to you, he is almost tempted to throw it away. he is very aware that his constant giving of gifts does not make up for his lack of presence on most nights. which is why he will put everything aside once in a while and dedicate an entire day to you, his lovely pearl. whatever you want, he'll do it with you. it's only fair after he has spent many a night cramped up in his office dealing with contract after contract. he knows your relationship isn't perfect, but he's eternally grateful that you're willing to work with him through it. one of his favorite things to do is when you decide to have a movie night with him. he'll help you build a fort, make snacks, anything you feel is important to the activity, and will then wrap all his limbs around you while the two of you watch. it's quite endearing really, a normally serious businessman tossing the entire persona for his one and only. don't tell the tweels please... they'll never let him hear the end of it.

KALIM AL ASIM

when on earth is he not showing all of his love for you?? it would honestly be hard to find an answer to that question... kalim is always in your corner (almost literally, he would spend every second with you if he could but i think jamil would lose it if he hears one more nickname such as 'pookie muffin' or 'moopsy'...) however i think his favorite way to show you he loves you is taking you for rides on his magic carpet, cliche i know but it's cute! of course all his gifts mean a lot to him, you're beginning to develop your own mini treasure room in ramshackle for goodness sake, but the time you spend with him cannot compare to any riches. if you're scared of heights, he'll work his way around it! it may not seem as romantic when you're only two feet off the ground, but when it's with kalim, that doesn't really matter.

VIL SCHOENHEIT

now, vil is very busy. and unlike azul, he doesn't have the same amount of control over his schedule. this can be a bit problematic when it comes to your relationships but he always manages to find ways to include you in whatever he's doing. you've never been on the set of a movie? now you have, several times in fact. the directors begin to expect your arrival with his after a while and you eventually get your own chair to watch your star do his magic on set. if you ever find yourself feeling unwelcome or uneasy, he knows how to pull strings. he will promise to ruin anyone who dare to make his partner feel as if they are not welcome. and if you ever feel as if you want to do the kinds of things he does, you better believe this man is getting you in contact with anyone and everyone he can (and this is vil... it's a lot of people). but at the end of the day, he just loves to unwind with you. to fall asleep with you in his arms is bliss, he can't get enough.

IDIA SHROUD

idia is without a doubt, one of the most closed up people on the planet. to see him outside of his room is a marvel in itself, but to see him with his significant other in a cafe? one would have to double check their vision. he really can't believe the lengths he goes for you. to sit in such a place, surrounded by so many normies is honestly a nightmare! he's thankful you let him choose where the two of you should sit, bringing you to the most closed off booth in the space. you'll definitely have to order for him, it's the least you can do after forcing him to come to such a place! jokes aside, he really does try for you. of course he would rather sit in his room holed up playing video games while the both of you chat, but he knows that's just a fantasy. start easy with him, small gatherings first, perhaps you can build his courage up enough to bring him to a bigger place like the mall... oh the things he does for you prefect...

MALLEUS DRACONIA

you were malleus' first friend, and now his first lover. needless to say, he would do practically anything for you. he truly feels that no action, words, or items can express his feelings for you. even the most passionate of poems cannot do him justice. despite his frustration for not being able to properly express his feelings, he does enjoy gift giving. tiny trinkets, photographs, letters, you name it, he has given it to you in some variation. if you collect them and keep them somewhere he will just absolutely melt. you truly are everything to him. something he enjoys very much is when the two of you go into the forest or the meadow to find plants and other things to give to each other. it makes him so giddy, preparing something for you while you do the same. he's practically giggling and skipping as he looks for more flowers for you. once you give him your small bouquet or flower crown, or whatever you have created, he's delighted! he casts a spell that will make them last forever. if only he could do the same to you...

[bekolxeram]

I woke up to a dash full of bones, and I thought to myself: What a day to be a moopsy!

But then I realized it was the same kind of bones people have been trying to force feed me since May. I'm a moopsy with standards, give me herringbone, funny bone, trombone, Jackson Rathbone (jk I've never seen Twilight), any other kind of bone.

Please don't force a moopsy into vegetarianism.

Oh, and I've read that opinion piece. It's certainly one of the articles ever written.

First of all, I feel like I'm in a time loop, I can't believe I have to dig through the vault to find this post from June. Tommy wasn't taking Eddie on an "adventure" in 7x04. Both flying and combat sports have been Tommy's passions way before Eddie showed up in his life. They happened to share common interests, so Tommy asked Eddie to tag along for the ride, but he was going to Vegas anyway, solo or not.

Exploring your partner's interests would be more like... I don't know, showing up to a groom-less (and fun-less) bachelor party while being on standby because it's important to your partner? Listening to him ramble about a dead outlaw even though you're so tired from your shift and taking care of him all night that you're basically mumbling half-asleep, yet still manages to catch that he's said "crossed" twice? Thinking your partner is stressing himself over a stupid curse but you still put on a nice suit, drive him to the cemetery and stand behind him while he gives a century old mummy a eulogy, for it to unexpectedly turn into a moment of connection between you two?

Secondly, I'm not even getting into the whole "slow burn is the only valid form of romance" thing. I just never imagined there would be a day I see the words "slow burn" and Bathena put together. They're the antithesis of slow burn. They're explosions in the form of beautiful fireworks. I understand that the author only started the show about a month ago? But literally, in the first episode of S7, Athena told the therapist that while she loved her husband, she didn't know how to just slow down and chill out with him. The cruise ship disaster arc ended with them bonding over yet another near death experience. Life's too short for slow to them.

Thirdly, 9-1-1 doesn't really do cute dates? It's either in the ending montage of an arc or it's a setup for some terrible misfortune afterwards. It's not a YA style queer coming-of-age show either, the best you'll see Buck navigating through queer spaces is speeding from "calling himself an ally while on a date with a guy" through "walking into a room full of people with a soot eating grin". (While we're on that, I guess I have to dig out another post from June about the first date closet comment. Tommy took the initiative to tell Eddie they were just hanging out, and Eddie bought it. He didn't mind keeping Buck's sexuality private, but he did mind Buck pushing him back into the closet with the hot chick lie.)

Finally, Tommy has been relatively involved in the Fire Fam circle ever since his re-introduction. He literally stole borrowed a helicopter and flew the 118 to the Pacific Ocean just to save Bathena. He was at the wedding, he was at the medal ceremony, and now he's part of the hospital vigil for Denny. And each time he's not just there for Buck, he's there for Chimney, he's there for Hen too. For someone who puts so much emphasis on "slow burn", the author seems rather hasty in pronouncing BuckTommy dead on arrival, after watching a total of 5 out of 18 episodes this season (with 2 of them heavily featuring passengers on the plane and putting the whole fire fam to the side no less). Every relationship takes time to build up, I'm sure the author understands that, welcoming a new member into your family is not a question of yes or no, it's also a question of when. Tommy has mentioned 3 times how much he wanted to have a team like that behind his back, how alone he was navigating through life with only negative influence like his father or Gerrard. Buck's story in 8x05 started as a spooky comedy about a mummy, but ended as a heartwarming tale of Buck empathizing with Billy's loneliness and declaring himself part of Billy's posse. So what do you think will be the more satisfying payoff to Tommy's story? Him being formally welcomed to the family eventually? Or having him break up with Buck then cast aside with a mere "lol sucks not being a main ig"?

I GOT INTERVIEWED FOR STAR TREK DAY

HOLY SHIT I was at the Chicago star trek day pop-up and after taking some pics they asked if I liked lower decks, gave me a moopsy pin (?!) and then we did a short video interview for the website where they asked a few questions and I tried to plug lower decks as much as I could!!

Kind of mortifying knowing my nerdiest quotes are on video and now property of Paramount but oh well!! I love trek!!!

(These are the pins!! The top one was a leftover from the Trek Cruise they were handing out and the bottom was free with the captain’s chair photo)

[daforgelore]

To follow up w the ask I would like to kno more about ur WIPs 👀 - go as in-depth as you'd like, bcuz I'm curious

"Jadzia K'Ehleyr Worf"

this one is about how K'Ehleyr was forced to fake her death, staying undercover for years to come. It focuses on how she occasionally pops up in Jadzia's life to inquire about her son*. Each time looking like a different alien species. (which is a little wink to suzie plakson's different roles in trek :D) It's a really flirty fic, and i've yet to add Worf into the hot mess his two wives are lol.

[*In this reality Alexander gets raised by Worf on Deep Space 9! Since i always thought it illogical that after establishing Worf's growth as a father, to take Alexander away.]

"The Story 2.4 onioned"

is a dark shortfic in which Lore is allowed to be villainous! In 2384 he wakes up in an off site Daystrom facility. While trying to find a way out he comes across Weyoun 9 and a Moopsy. There are no onions in this fic :P But toxic middle aged yaoi!

"A good Soong never dies"

Is essentially an episodic love-triangle drama (Data/Geordi & Lore/Geordi), that plays with Soong type jealousy.

It tells the story from the first day Data & Geordi met, their time on the Enterprise D, how they fall in love with one another, how they repair Lore, about Data's death in Nemesis. And how both Geordi and Lore cope with Data's sudden end.

It explores Data's relation to emotions, Lore's childhood trauma, and Geordi's tendency to have the villains fall for him. As well as immortal android kittens! :D

[old-type-40]

This had eluded my notice when I watched this episode last week but then when I saw a clip of this moment, I realized the significance of the swamp gobbler's reaction. The swamp gobbler looks like a truly frightening apex predator. But as soon as it sees the moopsy, it backs away and its legs tremble in fear. I love little details like that.

I waited so long for hullaballoo circus lore drop, i love you mikey so cutesy moopsy here

Writing Patterns

Tagged by @iamstartraveller776. ❤️ Thank you so much for tagging me! 🥳

Rules: List the first line of your last 10 (posted) fics and see if there's a pattern!

One to Make Us Whole “Do you think Paris has changed much?” Will’s gaze seems to follow the automatic watering vehicles that fly along the straight lines of vines that extend outward from Château Picard. (Number One | Una Chin-Riley & William Riker & Number One | Jean-Luc Picard’s Dog, one-shot, G)

A Little Love, Here and There Una gets happier after a few drinks, lips curling in giggles, long neck muscles in motion with wine-lubricated laughter. (Pikeuna, drabble pyramid collection, the first line is from the first one, T)

Truth is a Fantasy Chris left that part out of the official report: the fantasies. (Pikeone, one-shot, T)

Youthful Exuberance (Some Kind of Love) “This was amazing, Mom.” Chris settles back in his chair, pancake crumbs and a streak of leftover egg on his plate, the sun bright through the kitchen windows. “Thanks.” (Pikeuna, multi-chap, E)

For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched This Guy Moopsy! (Moopsy, whatever you call a 44-word story that I would have made 47 if I had run it through a word counter beforehand, T)

Tangled Up With You (and I Feel Fine) His throat caught, and the tears he’d been holding back for days — weeks? — since they’d been stuck on this planet, the Chatelet not responding to hails, Una’s infection raging, nothing in the medkit seeming to help, those tears of frustration and fear turned to wonderment, a gasp of gratitude at her wound aglow, a light in the darkness of the cave. (another Pikeuna ficlet collection, this time with the first line of each story from a prompt so the first line here the first line I wrote for the first story, T)

Six Years to Go “Seems pretty quiet up here, Lieutenant Mitchell.” From his captain’s chair, Chris taps for a systems check that Una could have told him is unnecessary. “If you still want to head out to that party you mentioned, I think Number One and I can hold down the fort.” (Una Chin-Riley and Christopher Pike, friendship or romance, one-shot, G)

Ten Midnights It’s important to clean medical equipment. (Joseph M’Benga & Pelia, one-shot T)

Twelve Grapes The ship’s bar is a great place for parties, and New Year’s Eve is no exception. (Chortegas, one-shot, T)

The Kelvin Scale Something about meeting him in a bar felt so right, as if the transitory nature of a bar was the natural juxtaposition for the staying power he offered her, more than sticking by her through hallucinations and pain, so much more. (everything from James T. Kirk & Nyota Uhura to mild Spirk as SNW Uhura gets vibes from the AOS/Kelvinverse, drabble, G)

Tagging 10 people: @emilie786 @elephant-in-the-pride-parade @sun-lit-roses @grissomesque @divinemissem13 @enterprise-come-in @coffee-in-that-nebula @lorcaswhisky @marymoss1971 and YOU, if you’re reading this and want to play! 🥳

So mad that Blossom told me Moopsy wasn't a word; justice for my favourite little guy
