For @awlwren: something about the Lascaux paintings.

Prompt 14/20

[Image: small watercolor painting in brown and yellow tones. A prehistoric painter inside a cave, perched on top of a basic ladder made out of a long branch with steps added on the sides. Two people, a kid and another adult, are looking at the painting. The painter, adding some black pigment to a painted ox: “like this?”. The kid, excitedly: “yes, its head was dark!”.]

Star Trek - “Dwellers in the Crucible”

In this book there’s a ridiculous system in which a buncha Federation planets basically hold representatives of each other hostage to stop a war from breaking out, so of course the Romulans swoop in and kidnap everybody. Our intrepid crew sits around mainly doing nothing for most of the book since the main story focuses on a human woman and Vulcan woman falling into serious… Friendship. How come nobody ever brings this book up when talking about LGBTQ history in Trek I wanna know? Anyway, with that in mind I feel bad giving this a low rating but the Enterprise basically does nothing all book long.

RATING: 46%

(Where to place: Between The Motion Picture and The Wrath of Khan.)

I get such a cathartic good feeling and such vicarious feelings of power seeing characters defeat their abusive parental figures

Catra unflinching and confident in front of shadow weaver gives me this rush and this longing and this envy that I can't do the same. I'm still terrified of even the thought of my dad yelling and I'm going to be 33 fucking years old in few weeks. Imagining being able to stand unflinching and be Right someday is so Much I can hardly contain the feeling.

I haven’t seen my dad in ten years - I don’t know where he lives and I don’t think he knows where I live - but I am still afraid of him and still have nightmares about him all the time.
