It bothers me that she’s in a catsuit. And he’s not going to sleep with her. Not my Chakotay. He just can’t. He’s too good. Leave him alone.

The MINE-ness of this quote is wonderful
MINE

I love Kate´s protectiveness in this quote. If it weren´t for the writers, she would have been right. Chakotay would normally not have fallen for her. Also, why a cat suit for Seven? Skin regeneration? It was the 24th century so the Doctor thought it would be appropriate to give someone with the emotional development of a child, a dress in which she would constantly be reduced to a sexual object. That what´s annoyed me about Braga. Trying to get viewers by stepping so low.

Currently ripping my Mrs Columbo DVDs, so if anyone can’t get a hold of them, drop me a PM.
Also, if there’s another KM film or series you can’t seem to find anywhere, drop me a PM as well. I may have them here somewhere.

Voyager 2.15: Threshold
“This fanfic writes itself” really got me.
I’ve always, always wondered why they couldn’t just devolve the babies and take them with them.
I’m pretty sure just leaving super evolved humans in th Delta Quadrant is against some Starfleet regulation.
Angsty J/C fanfic request:
Can someone please write a Titanic inspired J/C story.
J/C crash with a shuttle in an icy ocean. The have to get out before it sinks, the only floating debris they find isn’t big enough for both, so Chakotay lets her lie on it and holds on to the side until he can’t.
She begs him not to give up and desperately tries to reach Voyager, pressing her comm badge again and again and clinging to his hands that are turning blue. She keeps telling him that she loves him, she’s always loved him and he can’t leave her alone. She can’t do this without him. But he tells her she can. He loves her and she can do it. And she gets angry and tells him, “You bastard, you can’t leave. You can’t do this. You promised…you promised. Always. You promised.”
And he tells her she has to let him go, he wants her to grow old and wrinkled and she really has to let him go. But she refused and tells him, “I’ll never let go. Not until you make me.”
Until he can’t hold on anymore. Before he goes under he gives her his comm badge and tells her he’ll always be with her. And he starts to sink…

But she can’t let go and holds on to his hand, his blue, cold, stiff hand. And she doesn’t care if she freezes to death if her own hand falls of, she doesn’t let go.
Eventually Voyager finds them, of course, (or not, would make a fine story anyway). Turns out, the Doc can revive Chakotay. It was a good thing tha water was so freezing cold. He had injuries that would have killed him sooner if his body temperature wouldn’t have been lowered so drastically.
They could only beam him up with her, because she held his hand. Otherwise they wouldn’t have gotten a lock on him, because he took off his comm badge and he would have been too deeply under the surface to find him.
So it turns out in the end, her stubbornness saved his life.
And she’s angry with im for letting go. He’s kinda angry with her for not letting go, but also really, really glad he’s alive.
And they fight it out.
And well, we all know where that leads…
Aggressively reblogging my own post, because, hell yes, I am writing this, because I need it so desperately, I can’t wait and my mind won’t stop.
That moment when you drink too much and then start accessing your Captain Sassy side and none of your friends can handle it and then that one bitch tells you to “calm down” and you just sit there like…
Always embrace your Captain Sassy side!
If you can’t handle my sass, you don’t deserve my fluff!
November Comment Challenge
I double dog dare you, Tumblr, to leave some kind of comment on every story you read on AO3 this November.
You don’t have to compose a sonnet, or make offers of marriage, but I challenge you to take the minute of your time required to type one sentence of feedback into the comment field after you’ve read any story you didn’t completely hate, and tell the author something about what your experience of reading their work was. Two or three words is all it takes, if you’re feeling shy – “I liked this” or “This was good”
Something to let the author know that you recognize their efforts, that you are at least on some level aware that they entertained you, or at least kept you occupied for a little while, and that these comments are the only pay you’re ever going to be asked to give up for it. The only pay these authors are going to get. Recognition. From you.
When you think about how many hours of entertainment you get from reading fanfic every week, it’s not so much to pay, really.
So click the comment button. Use your words. Give a fan writer some encouragement to keep doing what they do.
I dare you.
Remember, remember, our Comment November…
Gotta do this! My bookmarked for later pile is so intimidating >.
I’m going to try and do this. I’m getting a lot better at at least leaving kudos. Sometimes I look at my fic that has a decent amount of hits for its pairing, only 2 kudos and no comments and I wonder what is wrong with it and why people aren’t responding to it. I totally want any comments, even constructive ones.
I’ve made it a habit to comment on each and every story I’ve liked enough to read all the way to the end.
I was able to take the time to read it, which is far less time than it took the author to create it. I can at least take a few more minutes to comment.
If I can’t think of a comment right away I leave the tab open until I can think of something. This way I don’t forget to comment.
