Kitchen

Try as he might, Data had never been good at cooking. On the Enterprise, Commander Riker had invited Data and others to his quarters in order to prepare them a home cooked meal. He had imparted some wisdom to Data about requiring ‘subtlety’ and ‘flair’ when preparing a meal. This was something that Data had never mastered. Baking is a bit easier due to the straightforward directions, but flavours remain a mystery to him in all contexts. He will either arbitrarily choose flavours based on aesthetic or nutritional value which usually ends up with some hilarious and terrible combinations. 

One thing he does excel at, however, is bartending. Data is very good at remembering orders, following drink recipes, and he finds something endearing about the traditional relationship of a bartender and their patrons.

Send a word and I will write a drabble or headcanon based on it

@parallaxedcaptain // Captain Janeway

Ships docked at all hours every day on Deep Space 9, and none of them concerned Garak. Unless, of course, they were of some use to him. Occasionally, he tangled himself in the affairs of illegal traders or those willing to bring him things of value - information, news, even comfort foods from Cardassia Prime. These visits were few and far between, however and, of course, never involved Starfleet vessels. 

Despite having no connection to them and having no desire to know about them in any regard, Garak always seemed to know when a Starfleet ship was docking. An excited buzz took the station by storm, and twice as many officers in primary colours flooded the Promenade. Commander Dax often threw parties then, and Quark’s was teeming with Terrans or Vulcans or other groups that couldn’t pay the Ferengi directly. It often resulted in Garak losing his lunches with Dr. Bashir and hiding from the masses in his shop. 

Starfleet officers rarely appeared out of uniform, so he could never count on them to come in and make a purchase. Not that he wished they would. Most Starfleet types were notoriously naive. Doe-eyed and wistful with a disillusioned view of the Federation. Garak had a distaste for the whole organization in general. He was sure the crew of this Voyager would be no different.

“Normally, I don't get down with dudes,” Anita’s gruff bit of laughter follows the statement - and it sounds absurd having to say it aloud, but the current situation didn’t exactly look great for her or Elliott, for that matter, considering what Janeway had walked in on. “Look, Captain, you don’t gotta worry about that kinda fraternization, ma’am. Promise. Witt’s just... an idiot lookin’ for advice, but he’s a hands-on learner, y’know? You just... came in at the wrong time.”

Q. WHAT WERE YOUR HANDS MEANT TO DO?

A. PRAY. Not necessarily to a god, but to hope. To family. In mud you see art. In shadows you see color. If the world fell apart around you, you would start gluing the pieces back together. Life tastes bitter but you like the bite. Those around you are inspired by your kindness, by your faith, by your hope. You might not speak often, but your words are the loudest in the room. You are rain and its ability to seep into every crack, the promise of new life.

[womanlives]

which type of love interest would you be in a dating sim?

THE SWEETHEART WITH AN ENIGMATIC DARK PAST.

You're always polite and kind with others. That makes people feel comfortable around you and many would consider you a close friend. However, you seldom feel connected with those around you. You feel like they don't know you, the real you, and they never will because you'll never allow them. It takes a great amount of time and trust for you to show yourself as you truly are, because you repress most of your feelings and desires, and mask them with a calm and collected personality. It just seems easier that way, safer. But remember that if you bottle everything up, it will explode one day, maybe in ways you aren't proud of.

Book Club

She lingered after the others had gone. It was a fine thing to attend something sponsored by the Captain, and she was far from the only one there.

But Kes wanted more, and she waited.

It had seemed to her that the majority of attendance had been there for fellowship and refreshments, but Kes was burning with questions. It had seemed in that time that no one had questions like hers. Nothing complex. Nothing that even seemed to vaguely challenged the Prime Directive, nor the Secondary nor the Third. Kes had listened more than she spoke, but she still had burning questions. So she lingered. So she waited. So she stood beside the remains of the layout of food as if she might choose something, but she did not.

She waited, listening, until she was the last in the room. then Kes went and sat across from the Captain, silent but eagerly awaiting permission to speak with wide blue eyes.

janeway/shep #14

a hundred different kisses | @parallaxedcaptain

Aboard star ships and military cruisers, seeing the stars as vast and wide as they are is never quite the same from a planet side view; though, the Commander lays with her arm behind her head, leg and prosthesis crossed at the ankles upon the blanket beneath herself and the good Captain. The sound of frogs on the pond and insects chittering fills the open countryside of her wife's Indiana homestead.

It's peaceful - a stark contrast to the state of the world only four years ago, nearly to the day.

It's then, Alice Shepard wonders, if that's why Kathryn has suggested this evening be spent in the calm quiet of the night; old war wounds seem to ache more than usual this time of year - a reminder of another time.

Shepard's free hand loosely holds Janeway's in hers in the space between them. As the night progresses, and the sky remains clear, eventually, that space dissipates with Kathryn pressed up against her side.

For warmth, she provides a reason, even though she doesn't need to. Shepard's arm wraps around her out of habit, and only momentarily does her piercing gaze move away from its fixation on the sea of stars to that of wine-coloured lips and auburn hair, and eyes that, even in the moonlight, still appear as dark as the depths of a stormy ocean.

"For warmth," Shepard repeats verbatim before leaning down to kiss her lover, slow and arduous, forgoing the 'why', and living in the now. Together and alone, in sanctuary beneath the stars, and into the night.

" you didn't think we'd just abandon you, did you? "

He had come so close to being reassimilated. He was still shaking. His face twitched and his breaths came in shaky, but he managed a weak smile. “I thought you might find me.”

He gave a nervous laugh. “I just... wasn’t sure if it would be in time or not.”

How do you need to be loved?

Recklessly, like a horse running as fast as he can

“You've been told that the way you love can never last, and that heartbreak is inevitable. But you don't want to love carefully. You want to love with reckless abandon. You want to love with everything you have, and you want to be loved the same way. You don't want them to worry about tomorrow. Make today worth living for.”
