Hi! I’d like Aug 7…I have to decide which format and fandom but I wanted to grab the date if I could.

Welcome back, we're excited to have you in the kitchen with us! Let us know when you decide on a fandom and format and we'll update the menu accordingly 💚

The 7th is yours 🖖✨

StarTrekPotluck2023 - Day 7, Serving 2: @pixiedane serves up a plate of delicious pancakes and beautiful feelings of home. Grab your pans and some bananas, everyone, and head to the stove 🥞🍌✨

She remembered the smell of the coconut oil in the black cast-iron skillet. The sound of it catching fire. The sparks like fireflies in the backyard. 

She remembered the feel of the fork as she mashed the banana. The best ones had black spots, just overripe but not too wet, not too sweet. It was her job to press the fruit into a paste. The first ingredient to go in the bowl. 'The foundation of the recipe', that’s what her grandmother called it. "Breakfast is built on this banana. Today is built on breakfast. Your life, B’Elanna, is built on today."

They added the other ingredients on top of the mashed banana paste. She pretended it was the weather. A maple syrup flood. Flour snow. Mixed all together in a baking tornado. Then added to the pan, three at a time. More than once she was too impatient and when the pancakes flipped they fell apart in a banana mash-flour snow-oat milk ribbon mess.

But even the ugly ones tasted like home.

She handed the fork to Miral. Carefully showed her how to mash the fruit. Grinned when the child decided to do it her own way. Just like Tom. Just like her.

They created weather together. They made sparks like fireflies. They measured out three pancakes at a time. And they flipped them too soon. But even the ugly ones tasted like home.

"Breakfast is built on a banana," she told her daughter. "Today is built on breakfast. And your life, Miral, your whole beautiful life, is built on today."

Miral touched her fat, wet, banana-mush-covered hand to B’Elanna’s cheek.

Today was perfect.

Katoberfest 2024!

This year's Katoberfest will be held October 20-27, 2024.

There are seven days of prompts + a free day:

Sunday October 20: Sleeping under the stars or “I care for you.”

Monday October 21: Outsider POV or “You made your choice.”

Tuesday October 22: Doors don't work that way or “I could never leave you behind.”

Wednesday October 23: Prank war or “Drop the attitude.”

Thursday October 24: Seated together at the bar or “You don’t seem like yourself.”

Friday October 25: Kat can’t sleep or “Are you sure you want to do this? Because there’s no turning back.”

Saturday October 26: Where is Katrina Cornwell right now?

Sunday October 27: Free Day

There are extra challenges:

The Katrina: post every day

The Cornwell: combine both of the day’s prompts into one work

The Vice Admiral: Kat is dead but [your choice] can still see her

The Admiral: create one work that includes at least five of the fifteen available prompts.

The Price of Command: Kat glimpses what her life may have been if one pivotal event had not happened, or had happened differently.

There are no requirements or limits to any medium (e.g. word count, art style, length of vid or pod, etc.).

You may answer as many, or as few, as you like and there is no specific format. The prompts are jumping off points and may be considered in universe or meta. Answers may take the form of essay, discussion, fiction, artwork, bulleted lists, gifsets, vids, vlogs, comics, whatever! It is also fine to answer prompts on a different day than that which corresponds with the prompt (if you miss it, or it is simply easier for you). There is no right or wrong way to participate! The purpose of Katoberfest is to celebrate Admiral Cornwell, not create work or drama.

When sharing on social media, tag your posts #Katoberfest2024. We will reblog and retweet all tagged posts.

The AO3 Collection is available here.

Any questions, do not hesitate to ask!

Thinking about the post I just reblogged from @pixiedane about whether my blorbos need therapy and thinking about the question of ‘would they go’ is also interesting. (Also assuming therapist is a good one what is the diagnosis/therapeutic plan)

WIP name game, tagged by world-class “snowman” builder @xeresmalfoy 🤭❤️

Current WIP:

You & Me — Rhys Montrose x Reader/OC character (depends on where you read the story), 9 more chapters to go! Filled with lots of drama, violence and a pinch of murder

Other fics coming up:

- The next F1 project is in readers hands… so if you want to vote and haven’t yet; go ahead right here [x] Options include: LN4 (sim racing), CL16 (winter camp), OP81 (rookie dinner), or multi (Honda thanks day)

- I’m also not done with Brianna Fraser & Stephen Bonnet! Current IIP (idea in progress aka me manically jotting down notes) is set in the 1920s, height of the prohibition era and post-war extravaganza. The working title is “Sketch” which is… definitely going to change lol

I hereby tag @boiohboii @pixiedane

Hi! Will there be an AO3 collection for Bo-Katan Week?

Howdy! This was definitely something I considered for last year but didn't end up becoming a reality. I would love to make it happen this year though!

So short answer: Yes! If that's something you guys want, I'll go look into getting that set up asap! 💙

And while I've got a chance to bring it up, BKW fic writers! Do those of you who participated last year want me to retroactively make a BKW 2021 AO3 Collection? 👀

[jhelenoftrek]

My gift for the wonderful @pixiedane for @trek-rarepair-swap Round 19.  

For what Pixie contributes to this fandom, she deserves to receive every fanwork she could ask for.  I hope you like this Pixie!  It was certainly an interesting pair!
