Wow, people whose skulls I apparently find impenetrable: Benjamin Sisko.
I’m writing this scene from his POV and it’s like rolling rocks uphill.
Switch it to Miles O'Brien POV, and suddenly everything is mildly irritated sunshine.
Vyc, kudos to you on “Held” and spending so much time in that man’s head. It’s difficult.

Did you still want more prompts for later? My brain is basically made of prompts, so I can deliver if necessary. <3
The answer to this is always yes.

Okay are we talking Garak as an ACTUAL giant squid or just figuratively? Because either way that is an awesome idea.
Ahahaha, God, wouldn’t that be an AU that’d keep ‘em guessing?
Nah, just figuratively. The concept of the dark creature that can’t help ruining what he touches, combined with “but I can’t do that thing anymore, can’t be the thing I was before” is an image I find quite powerful. It’ll be melancholy, whatever it is.

So I had to go look this up on Youtube because apparently I’m in the wrong part of the country or something, but 1) really good song and 2) ilu.
I am going to write a G/B ficlet about it I STG.
With Garak as the giant squid.
No, shut up, I’m serious.

Haha, yeah, man, I try not to think about it too much, because that is otherwise the road to extreme frustration. "Julian, want some Earth tea?” “No thanks, I’ll stick with my Tarkalean tea instead.”

Thaaaaaaaaaaat would be the episode I made the “I HAVE BEEN EMOTIONALLY COMPROMISED" post about. Also the only other episode that’s made me cry in DS9 is “The Visitor.“ So. Well. Yeah.

I can’t speak for anyone else, obviously, but when I praise you and your writing, I definitely mean it. I will go review something of yours tomorrow and prove it—just watch me. I hope things look brighter in the morning. /hugs tight
Awww, you are–
You are just too nice, Vyc. /hugs/ Thanks! For some reason things just seemed a bit bleak last night. This is what happens when I stay up too late. I know this. The trick is to go to bed before the existential pointlessness sets in, not after.
Offline interaction is hardmode because you have to come up with good shit to say RIGHT NOW. Online you can take a day to think about things. I’m sorry things didn’t go well for you today. /hugs
Offline = hardmode.
Offline = hardmode.
You just
You just gave me a reference point.
Thank you, Vyc! As always, you make me think and it makes me better!
I’m sorry but I laughed so hard at this.
Right? I’m sure it’s really awesome Inception mpreg fic, though - it’s got something like 286 notes! I should read it! I guess!
Why. Why am I thinking about xenobiology while reading this.
Probably for much the same reasons I was - high five!

I’m an apprentice tattoo artist. An artist who owns a few shops invited me to their team.
I’ve got a long way to go. I’m still learning basic shading techniques. Working with a tattoo pen adds depth to the traditional flat plane I’m used to working on.
One is never too old to learn a new skill.
At times I feel like a complete newb.
So, here is a meme that I love. I’m sharing it for everyone who is learning something new.
