Search and Rescue

15k, E - complete and on Ao3.

Dear @honeybee-taskforce - I am your Tarlos Secret Cupid! 🥰 💘 I hope this fic brings you as much joy to read as it brought me to write. This is how I have interpreted your prompts!

On their first Valentine's Day as husbands, Carlos surprises TK with a trip to adopt a retired police dog – not expecting to come home with a goofy, boisterous golden retriever who failed all his training. But not all heroes are ultra-smart German Shepherds who wear dog-sized bulletproof vests. And sometimes, when it comes to gifts, great minds think alike.

******

"Please, baby. Please. I've never felt this way about anything." TK pauses. "Except you."

Carlos bites the side of his lip. When he’d imagined adopting a dog, a goofy golden with a thing for shoving his head and body into every available crevice – and who had failed different types of training to the point where he was given up on – was not something he'd factored into the fantasy. But, when he looks at his husband and Cuddles, he undisputedly sees the purest of all sights: A boy and his dog. He sees himself, aged six, when he was introduced to Rocky as a pup. He especially stayed by Carlos' side throughout his difficult teens, like he knew he needed a friend to come home to. Carlos said the words, “I’m gay,” to Rocky long before he spoke them to any judgmental human. Rocky loved him just the same, and kept the secret.

20 fanfic questions

thanks for the tag @randomfoggytiger!

1. How many works do you have on Ao3?

95.

2. What’s your total Ao3 words count?

368,619

3. What fandoms do you write for?

The X-Files, Star Trek: TNG, Star Trek: Picard, the Star Trek novel-verse, and I just posted a fic for The West Wing

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Platonic Procreation, Eden, The MSR Files, Mother Knows Best, and Though the Heavens Fall (also I need to mention my current WIP Security Questions bc it's only three kudos away from a tie with fifth place!)

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

Most of the time! I usually respond to friends/ people I know well, or if someone pointed out something specific in my fic they liked. And I responded to every comment made on my West Wing fic so far bc I want the fandom to notice me😅

6. What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

lol I don’t write many fics with angsty endings (I do like writing angst sometimes but I need things to end happily😅) but I guess this would be Baby Blue, If I Could Only Break the Sky, or When We Were Whole (not sure which one would be the most angsty)

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

so many! lol but I wanna single out Coda bc it was my attempt at wrapping up the mytharc and giving Mulder and Scully a happy ending with William (and giving Samantha’s storyline some actual closure lmao) and I think I did a decent job of it🤗

8. Do you get hate on fics?

I did get a hateful comment on a fic not long ago (ironically, it was and still is my most popular fic by almost every metric so someone was clearly jelly lmao) and I’ve had a couple of comments in the past on different fics that weren’t quite hateful but more like critiquing/nitpicking character or writing choices.

9. Do you write smut?

no absolutely not never ugh

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

I don’t think I’ve ever written one! But I have ideas for TXF/Star Trek and TXF/SVU crossovers that I might write someday if I ever find the time/energy/inspiration😅

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

I don’t think so but I hope not!

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

No idea!

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Yes! The gang and I have co-written quite a few fics, which can all be found in this collection🤗

14. What’s your all-time favorite ship?

MSR of course!! But I will always have a soft spot for Riker/Troi and joshdonna is beginning to take up more and more space in my brain lmao

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

I have a Riker/Troi amnesia fic that has been sitting in my notes for three years, every chapter either written, partly written, or outlined, but I just can’t make myself sit down and sort it out😫 also I used to start publishing fics before I was certain where I was going with them, and For War Alone is a relic of that (and it has also been sitting there since 2020 lol)

16. What are your writing strengths?

I have been told I’m really good at dialogue, and I choose to take people at their word😅

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

I’m addicted to adverbs, also I just love reusing the same words and phrases over and over- one time in a first draft I used the word ‘actually’ four times in a single paragraph!

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

I love reading that! I feel like it makes the setting and characters and everything seem more realistic, but for writing it I pretty much need to rely on google translate or multilingual moots lol

19. First fandom you wrote for?

I wrote a LotR fic a long time ago! But the first fic in my modern day stretch of fic writing was for the Star Trek novel-verse: Psi-Ops

20. Favorite fic you’ve ever written?

Oh gosh this is so hard but I’m gonna say Where A Million Stars Catch Fire bc I put in a lot of time and effort carefully constructing it as a tribute to Mulder’s birthday this year, and I’m really proud of how it ultimately turned out🥰

Tagging @tofuttim @katy-kt-katie @incidental-ao3 @cutemothman @mollybecameanengineer and whoever else who wants to do it!

Any thoughts on Chico being a parent?

I have a couple, thanks for asking😂 I love the idea of Chico as a dad, and have played around with it in fanfiction. He loves hard. That’s gotta mean something, right?

Chico Guerra as a Parent would include…

He’s not exactly the classic “fatherly” type

He never really saw himself with kids and a family

Mostly because he never thought he could

(I write Chico with an older brother, Roberto (Bobby), who joined El Norte before him on the outside and when his older brother was killed in a gang war, he just stayed because that’s all he’s ever known. This is important for how I view him)

He’s reckless and wild

But he’s kind to kids, always

Even before he has ones of his own

He was always the “cool cousin” at family functions

There are lines even criminals don’t cross

His stomach turns when he heard about Beecher’s son

He’s up every night for a week wondering how terrified that little boy must have been up until the end

Breaks his heart💔

When he gets a chance for kids, adopted or biological, he surprises everyone at how he is with them

He’s not necessarily a perfect dad, but he’s a loving dad

Supportive

Chico likes to get on his knees to talk to his kids

His friends think it’s “fruity” but the kids really like someone meeting them at their level

He always makes it seem like they’re getting away with something

“Here’s three dollars, don’t tell mom/dad.”

“Can you keep a secret? I always wanted to be an astronaut. Shhhhh…”

*making chocolate chip pancakes* “and now we add extra chocolate and don’t tell anyone about it.”

The kids love it, they feel like he really sees them

He loves kids; they say the weirdest stuff

“You think spinach tastes like horse feet? Ok. Explain.” 😂

Big fan of putting his kids on his shoulders or neck

They always get the best views at all shows and parades

Fuck the people behind him tho

Only the best for his kids

Sees them as an extension of Bobby; giving them the life his brother never had

He is SHIT in the kitchen… but literally anytime his kids are hungry, he’s on his feet asking what they want…

even though he knows fuck all about kid tastes

“Ok… an afterschool snack…” *rifles past the beer and cornflakes* “umm…”

His significant other comes home to find the kitchen a mess but some very happy children eating what Chico calls “sugar seizure bagels”

(Bagels with jelly, marshmallows, chocolate chips, chocolate syrup, and sprinkles)

Likes to toy with his kids

“Ok… we have spicy lobster and squishy peas or… cosmic brownie?”

“BROWNIE!”🥰

“Hmmmm okay, if you’re sure…”😂

Chico’s in charge of the pantry

Comic brownies, devil dogs, roll ups and gushers… looks like a fallout shelter for a five year old millionaire.

Makes breakfast every Sunday; egg bagel sandwiches he personalizes for each kid.

Keeps trying to add stuff to show off for his kids

Doesn’t realize they think it’s perfect with just a little cheese lol

Kids watch cartoons while dad cooks

Dad making comments from the kitchen

“Y’think he’s ever gonna get that mouse?”

“Wish my car worked just sticking my feet out of it…”

“No. You cannot call me papa Smurf. Please.”

Likes it when the kids take naps on his chest afterwards

That’s something he’d miss terribly as they grew up

Until one day after a fight his teenager, seeing him reclining on the couch, just goes and sits next to them, watching tv until they both fall asleep, Chico pulling his kid close.

Chico lets his kids paint his nails but he draws the line at wearing it out.

Though he quite liked the black polish…👀

If you’ve ever watched Liar Liar with “the claw”, Chico has something similar with his kids; the Tickle Police

“Scuse me, ma’am/sir, you know how cute you were going just then? That’s a write up.”🥹

Insists on tucking them in

Will tell stories that may or may not be kid appropriate…

“Then Prince Carlos threw his… drink… at the officer.”

Is INCREDIBLY supportive

Tolerant and Chico Guerra don’t automatically go together… but he wants his kids to have what Bobby didn’t.

“You want to be an engineer? No one’s got a better head than you, kid.”

“A surgeon? I’d go to you if you were my doc. Wouldn’t trust anyone else.”

“You want to be an interpretive dancer… that’s… pretty cool.”😂

No one ever told Chico Guerra that he could do anything

So he wants his kids to know the world is theirs.

When they’re sick, he treats them like royalty

He’ll take off work and stay home with the them, watching movies and refilling their Gatorade.

He never hesitates to cuddle them when they’re sick, often resulting in him getting sick himself.

Chico used to be a huge baby when he got sick

With kids, he wants them to see him as Superman, so he always makes it seem less bad than it is

“Nah kid *blows nose* I’m fine, Daddy’s fine.”

If anyone bullies his kids, he genuinely will not know how to cope

He doesn’t want his kids fighting everyone like he did

But damn does it boil his blood when they get home crying.

He sits with them and talks, listens to what the other kids said or did

“You’re not gonna take this. Next time they fuck with you… *gets look from S/O* *sigh* go tell a grown up.”

He’s trying really hard to be a positive influence

He doesn’t want his kids to had the life he did

When his kids are old enough to learn about gangs in the neighborhood, Chico tries to explain.

“They’re gonna pretend they’re your friends and they’re not. I’m saving twenty years of your life here, kid.”

When some of his old “friends” talk about recruiting his boy, Chico almost breaks parole.

“Let me make this painfully clear…”

Every day he tries to protect his kids from men like him, and it changes his view of life.

If his kids are happy, he decides, then his life won’t have been a waste

And when you ask family friends and onlookers, Chico Guerra has some happy fucking kids.

Bonus: the movie Inside Out made him cry. He watches a lot of movies with his kids but that movie just quirked something inside of him. He loves that fucking movie.

Which cats do you think are strays and which live with humans?

Ooh I like this question. This will be a long one as there are a lot of Jellicles 😅

Old Deuteronomy: doesn't have humans but does love hanging around the humans at the vicarage. He's sort of the friendly stray cat who gets in everyone's way as he lays in the traffic XD

Munkustrap: lives with humans. I love to imagine he lives with a family who have a little girl that he absolutely adores, he thinks of her as his human kitten 🥰

Rum tum tugger: definitely has humans which he annoys with his habit of never deciding whether he wants to be in or out and getting stuck in drawers XD

Demeter, Bombalurina and Jemima: I imagine Dem was a stray up until she broke off from Macavity and wanted a second safe place to stay when not at the junkyard. I think she moved in with her sister Bombalurina and brought her kitten Jemima too. I think that's why they all have matching spiked collars

Skimbleshanks: the trains and station are his home and he's beloved by everyone who works there

Jennyanydots: obviously lives with humans where she teaches the mice and cockroaches

Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer: live in a very rich fancy house. They may be troublesome but their owners love them and would never get rid of them

Pouncival, Tumblebrutus, Electra and George: stray kittens who live in the junkyard. I love imagining George as a puppy who was raised by the cats and now thinks he's a cat

Etcetera: I don't know why but she strikes me as someone with owners. Ones who love to play with their excitable kitten

Mistoffelees and Victoria: twins who live with humans around their uncle Bustopher's side of town, so quite well off. Definitely the pretty kitties who make for great pictures (when Misto isnt disappearing in the middle of them)

Alonzo: a stray who would never ever live with humans. He's someone who likes to think of himself as strong and independent and he's grown up on the streets (but secretly he loves having his tribe around to help)

Plato: a stray who's training to become a protector. He likes visiting Victoria's house.

Cassandra: lives with humans. She's very aloof even after living with her humans for years. She's a very elegant, photogenic cat though, loves to pose from afar.

Macavity: a stay gathering his own gang. But I do find it funny to imagine him with an owner who thinks he's just their fuzzy silly litte guy, who's never done anything wrong XD

Gus and Asparagus Jr: Gus lives at the theatre with his son. Asparagus wants to be there to take care of him when Jelly can't

Jellylorum: has humans and loves to visit her friend Jenny or take care of Gus with Asparagus when she's free

Coricopat and Tantomile: strays with a mysterious past. They haven't told anyone yet where they came from.

Bustopher Jones: lives in a very fancy house and of course goes off to his various clubs regularly

Grizabella: used to live with humans but left them when she left the tribe

What do you HC was the first couple costume Ethan & Tiffany wore and how many Halloweens did it take to convince Ethan to wear one?

If they have to choose, which one would be their favorite costume they have worn?

What’s the most ridiculous costume Ethan has worn just because his kid asked him to?

🖤🧡🖤🧡🖤🧡🖤🧡🖤🧡

Anon, dear 🧡🧡🧡 Thank you so much for sending this wonderful ask, it was amazing to come up with a Halloween HC and reunite with my babies! Sorry if it’s too long lol

Before kids

Ethan Ramsey doesn’t do Halloween, it’s as plain as the nose on your face and Tiffany doesn’t poach on that territory—she respects his boundaries immensely and would never try to breach his comfort zone for the sake of her own enjoyment. Tiff usually gets her Halloween fix on the peds ward where she dresses up for the kids and does a hospital version of trick-or-treating 🧡

My two workaholic doctors rarely get a night off for Halloween, so they usually decline all invitations to costume parties, much to Ethan’s huge relief.

The one time they didn’t decline happened right after Tiffany’s residency. The gang made it very clear that every guest must be wearing a costume, but Tiffany didn’t expect Ethan to entertain this silly idea (or feel threatened by The Organizer, Double-Oh-Tiny Trinh). She had to pick her jaw up off the floor when Ethan asked her what’s their plan. He offered to go as “that unsettling Addams couple” (as a little nod to Tiffany and her surname, obviously). He figured that the costume is pretty undemanding and, more importantly, he gets to look human. Besides, he cannot keep his eyes and hands off his Morticia, so he makes a perfect Gomez 🥰 That was their first and last costume party before kids—a glorious exception to the unspoken rule.

After kids

The Ethan Ramsey doesn’t do Halloween rule changes when NJ (5) and Letty (2) are about to experience their first trick-or-treating while visiting their great grandparents in New York. NJ chose to be Captain America, Tiffany picked Black Widow, and Letty was given a tiny Scarlet Witch costume. Ethan is obviously sticking out, wearing some fancy black suit and his unwillingness to be a part of the Marvel universe. However, he would never ruin his son’s excitement and the event his loved ones were eagerly waiting for…So he agrees on T’s last-minute idea and decides to put the Iron Man mask on, along with the brave face that would help him survive the evening. In the surprising end, Ethan finds himself deeply moved; the sight of his family—the family he thought he’d never have—wandering around the neighborhood in ridiculous outfits and having fun together, filled his heart with great sense of accomplishment and belonging. Plus his smoking hot wife wearing a skintight black jumpsuit and red wig was an absolute vision...But let’s keep it PG jkdjgkdgdj

Halloween costumes became a tradition (only for a few years though; when The Ramdams enter their teenage years, they lose interest in dressing up completely and Grumpsey is relieved of his clown duty lol), but Ethan tries to play it safe whenever possible and chooses costumes that aren’t really costumes as they require zero effort, allowing him to maintain his dignity. Tiffany always finds a clever way to match his choice (or lack of thereof) and comes up with a couple costume anyway. However, sometimes the kids would insist on going all the way, and Ethan is consistently helpless in the face of the power they hold over him...

Some of E&T’s couple costumes over the years:

Peanut Butter for T and Jelly for E

Doctor Strange and Clea - Tiffany’s favorite, Ethan looked so hot he should be illegal

The Addams Family 2.0 feat. The Kids

Cardiac Arrest for T and Medical Record for E (it’s all about the puns)

Pumpkin Pi(e) for T and Dark Matter for E - Ethan’s favorite, guess why 😂

Sexy costumes not included, they don’t need Halloween for that 🖤

Ethan’s most ridiculous costume? Letty’s unicorn.

Before you ask—shockingly, Tiffany had nothing to do with this, but she made sure to get everything on tape and teased him mercilessly (those riding jokes are too tempting, you know). He absolutely hated every second of engaging in this buffoonery, but he would do it again just to see pure, unadulterated joy on Letty’s face. Growing up, it’s one of her most cherished memories (and the reason why Letty claims she’s daddy’s favorite kshkshdkbdkb)

_____

I sincerely apologize for the late reply, but you have probably noticed that I’m rarely here these days…Once again, thank you so much for still caring about E&T and my nonsense, it means a lot! 🫶🏻

(additional context below the cut)

- shima enaga plushie here's a translated clip from earlier this year

- gingering ขิง /khing/ = ginger, but it's also slang for showing off most recently, P'Den (acting coach for TNP) reported on ZNN's growing ginger farm lol

- 'hop' 🤭 meme find the long explanation here but it basically went viral because of a Thai tiktok
