9 People to Get to Know Better (Tag Game)

alright...this year I'm resolving to be more of an active participant in fandom...this year I'm resolving to be more of an active participant in fandom...thank you to @dustykneed for tagging me, I'll try to do my best with this!

3 ships you like:

Outside of the obvious (*cough*persistent star trek brainrot*cough*) I'm gonna say Winterbaron (Bucky Barnes/Zemo), Barmaro (Nick Amaro/Rafael Barba from That Cop Show That is Still Somehow Being Aired), and LinSu (Lin Chen/Mei Changsu from Nirvana in Fire aka 琅琊榜). What do these have in common? Almost nothing lol, but maybe there's an argument to be made about a common "on the surface we seem so different/present ourselves differently, but deep down we understand a part of each other in a way no one else does (whether we like/admit it or not)" dynamic.

First ship ever:

I legitimately do not remember this, but I've kept a journal/diary since I was 7, and once I went to look up the entries around when I first discovered fandom (early teens, 12-14 ish) and would you believe it, there's a page of me yelling very passionately about Spones and Mckirk, which...is just mind-boggling to me because I've always thought my first ship was Stanner (Tony Stark/Bruce Banner). So I'm still claiming Stanner, but...LMAO

Last song you heard:

...to answer this honestly, it was technically a rather...sub-par rendition of Eminem's "Rap God" by my very dear sister during last night's post new year's dinner living room karaoke. The last song that came up on my phone playlist though was apparently "San Francisco" by The Mowgli's.

Favorite childhood book:

"Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!" (a collection of recorded conversations between Ralph Leighton and the titular Richard Feynman)—yeah you can tell I was a fun kid 😭

Currently reading:

"The Rise of Modern Chinese Thought" (《现代中国思想的兴起》) by Wang Hui which is like...an analysis of the connection between Chinese political culture and classical Chinese philosophy. I think. I'm only like 50 pages in and I'm discovering that I may be too stupid to really understand what's going on. Also, "Like the Argonaut" by trash_heron on Ao3 which is a (still in-progress) Spones epic that's in the middle of going through all of TOS with some really interesting worldbuilding things and integration of other Trek series with the TOS events.

Currently watching:

The Bear, which I'm enjoying a lot even though I'm watching it...incredibly slowly due to constantly getting distracted by other things 😭

Currently consuming:

Leftover dimsum from breakfast/brunch 👍

Currently craving:

Bones McCoy content, always craving more Bones content 💙💙💙

Tagging (absolutely no pressure!! ...I only have like 20 mutuals so to reach 9 about half of you are being tagged I'm so sorry):

i went feral in this part

My gosh, that chapter 10 of Princess of South Beach is every Esparza/Pino fans wet dream😏

From 3.39 is from where it starts 😍

[bornforastorm]

The injustice of what they did to barba 😔 and then when he came back the injustice continued....

Barmaro was more my speed back then when angst potential drew me into ships hard but IF i was introduced to the show today i think i'd be a barisi girl (gn)

one of the greatest crimes of television is what they did to Barba. why couldn’t we have had Law & Order: For The Defense starring Raul Esparza instead 😔😔

i now have to reveal to you that i had such a reputation among my real life friends that when i moved away from NYC my real life friends got me this hat:

[soul-wanderer]

friendly reminder that in Padre Sandunguera, while Rafael initially asked Nick to testify against his father, he later retracts and tells him he doesn't have to do this and that he never should have asked him to testify against his own father.

Rafael prioritized how Nick would feel about having to testify against his own abuser

Rafael prioritized that, despite always being shown as driven, passionate, almost ruthless in an attempt to get predators convicted. We see, on several occasions, how hard he is on his colleagues/friends when preparing them for trial, simply because he wants to see the bad guys locked up

And Rafael still apologizes for asking Nick to testify and tells him he doesn't have to do this, despite knowing his father might get away like this, and he did so because he KNOWS, he absolutely knows what Nick feels like, because he tells him, "I know what it's like to have to face down your old man. Mine's dead 15 years, and my hand still curls into a fist whenever I think of him", a clear indication that he is no stranger to the situation Nick is in.

All this to say: Rafael's empathy for Nick's situation outweighed his professional and personal drive to bring justice to another victim, because NICK WAS A VICTIM TOO and there is no way in hell Rafael would have done this if he had felt nothing for that man

I know you’re in a completely different fandoms now, but I absolute loved your Barmaro fics! I adore how you made their relationship

Thank you this is so nice ! I don't post much anymore, honestly, but I miss it sometimes and I've absolutely been on an SVU kick as of late. Feel free to drop requests and, with luck, I'll get to them

[barisistill]

Hello!! Here to just say i am loving all the new Barisi you’ve been posting based on the requests. I will soon leave some comments on them (I don’t like doing it through the phone - feels like I’m not engaging properly). But really, thank you so much for sharing your work!

I don’t think I’ll read the cheating one rn, bc this week I already suffered with the barmaro/barisi and, honestly, GOLD. Hot and painful and painful not the way it’s hot.

Anyway luv, thanks a lot for your stories, your scenes, your dynamics, and for inspiring lots of works to come!

omg hello!!!!!! first of all, i see you in my notifs all the time, so thank you SO much for that!!!

secondly, thank you so much for reading my fics and ESPECIALLY for commenting on them. i love getting feedback and esp knowing what lines resonate with people. i’m so grateful

third, im so happy you enjoyed the bamaro/barisi fic (if you can call the traumatic experience of reading that fic ‘enjoying’ it). and i agree about not reading the cheating fic. i personally would recommend that no one read the cheating fic bc it’s absolutely devastating imo

thank you so so much again for everything 😭😭

“Detective, wipe that look off your face.”

“What look?” Nick balked. How did he know?!

“That look,” Barba said as he flipped through the folder. The bastard was not even looking.

“That look? You're not even looking at me.”

“I don't have to be looking to know.”

“To know what, Counselor?”

Barba finally looked over to him. “That you need to wipe it off.” He had the nerve to smile.

Nick could not believe he had the nerve to blush.

///// Nick Amaro hates Rafael Barba. Until he makes him smile and he is smitten. Rafael Barba is not a fan of Nick Amaro. Until he makes a silly joke and he hears Nick laugh.

They are both so fucked. //// Music links to follow along are now embedded in each chapter!
