I wish I was a mermaid and was friends with all the fish

Bad Medicine Is What I Need (Star Trek - McCoy/Uhura - PG-13 - 2278 words) Uhura is absolutely brilliant ... at xenolinguistics. Her mandatory medical coursework, on the other hand, could use some help. Thankfully, McCoy has gallantly volunteered to tutor her.

Also, I had a very fun Halloween. talumin bought candy for trick-or-treaters, even though we don't really do that here, and we had a Halloween episode marathon - we watched Two Guys, A Girl, And A Pizza Place; Miss Match; How I Met Your Mother; Buffy the Vampire Slayer; The Office; Dark Angel; Grosse Pointe; Angel; and Wizards Of Waverly Place. And I dressed up as Pyjama Girl, which, shut up, is totally a real costume.

Now, um, I might actually write fic? Or something?

Seven fics in July, in four fandoms - including three new fandoms (Dollhouse, Psych, and Star Trek XI) and one familiar one (Battlestar Galactica). Three remixes, two porn battle/kink meme entries, one Sweet Charity fic, and a ficathon pinch hit; about 12,500 words, all told.

In other news ... I may be falling back in love with Stargate Atlantis? I started rewatching it recently (at least, the first three seasons), and, I don't know. I really used to love this show. I think maybe I'm not as done with the fandom as I previously expected. (In which case, ha! I knew I could never leave a fandom for good. In your face, eight-months-ago me!)

I will not write a Star Trek high school AU. I will not write a Star Trek high school AU. I will not write a Star Trek high school AU.

Dear god, somebody shake me. I'll be over there, trying to remember what I was doing before st_xi_kink.

All bsg_remix fics have been posted, yay! There are so many awesome fics over there, but I would be particularly remiss if I didn't point you towards the remix written for me: Apres Moi, Le Deluge (Helo/Sharon, PG-13). I tend not to think of remixes as regular fic exchanges (because, well, they're not), but you guys, it's like this fic really was written for me. If there's a common thread in my early BSG fics, especially, it's examining the line between Boomer and Athena; this fic does exactly that, and I love it so.

Reveals go up tomorrow; I ended up writing two fics, and I'll write a ficlet for anyone who correctly guesses one or both of them. (Hell, if you guess both, I'll write you anything.)

In other news, I submitted my remixredux09 fic, picked up a pinch hit for apocalyptothon (which is very exciting, since I hadn't signed up for it this year because of other commitments and was feeling bummed about not participating), and have spent the past ... way too many hours skimming through the prompts at st_xi_kink. Star Trek Kink Meme: more addictive than TV Tropes?
