fuck
it’s probably not a good sign when the fic i’m writing is making me cry
Here’s something unexpected:
When writing dd9, naming someone by their race alone (“oh, that Vulcan guy?” “Yeah, him and that Klingon.”) feels racist as fuck.
Apparently, in my head, DD9 Jadzia Dax swears like a sailor and makes really, really obnoxious jokes. Which Quark finds really funny. Ye gods.

You know what? I’m kind of fearful of that fic. Torture, right? And rape, or at least extremely, extremely dubcon? I'unno.
What makes it good? (aside from the fact that Seraphtrevs wrote it, which is, I admit, a huge point in its favour)
British tumblies, I choose you!
Can Julian Bashir ever say “that guy”? Do British people say “guy”? For some reason it rings oddly to have him say “that chap” or “that bloke,” and “that fellow” doesn’t feel quite right in this situation. It’s a DD9 situation, so he’s a bit less formal than our usual CMO.
Thanks!
You know you’ve been watching too much Battlestar Galactica when you sit down to write Julian Bashir, and from your fingertips flows Gaius Baltar.
this fic is turning out dirtier than it needs to be
meanwhile i am now unable to curse in real life
this is like some picture of dorian gray business up in here
Hey, guys, I need help!
I’m writing a thing that has a brief bit on-station - more than a bit, actually - and Ezri Dax is there, but I haven’t watched her yet! And I don’t want to jump that far ahead!
Can someone recommend me an Ezri Dax episode that shows her off without wrecking too much of what’s to come? Should I watch the Garak one? Thoughts?
when you have the smutty part written but you can’t post the next chapter because you can’t get the dialogue right
i do not know how anybody writes non-sexual garak/bashir fic
i really don’t
keeping these two off each other for the length of a _page_ is a full-time-job, ffs

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.
