1 – 16 of 16 Works in Alien Culture
Summary
Kara isn’t clueless. She might not be native to Earth, but she’s got everything she needs to know down. She’s got TikTok. She knows how to curse in English- like, a lot. She can definitely recognize when two Earthlings want to settle down into domestic bliss or at the very least fuck. Besides, Kon is clearly following Kryptonian customs with Tim. What is there for her to misunderstand?
Obviously they’re together.
OR
5 times Kara was sure Tim and Kon were together, and the one time they actually were.Shelves: DC Comics

I am an Alderaanian citizen. I was made aware of an encrypted channel through which to convey information and would entreat your assistance in a matter of extreme importance— the future of the galaxy. I must remain vague, but I would be willing to arrange a meeting between our people. I am sorry that I cannot verify my identity or show you proof that I mean what I say. I only know that you are a good man, and I hope you will trust that I have your same intentions.

Summary
Eight years after the Dominion War, Dr. Bashir--rather afflicted, unfortunately--is en route to Cardassia Prime. Meanwhile, Garak has re-established himself as a politician of note, and his methods may be the source of more than a little friction. Furthermore, Garak's comrade-in-arms from the Cardassian Rebellion, Kira Nerys, is seeking to define a correct path for the tumultuous planet of Bajor. Ezri Dax, conversely, is struggling with her role in the Federation. The O'Briens are the two people suffering the least, and let me be the first to say, good for them.
Features an absolutely staggering amount of politicking, as well as periodic descriptions of alien ecology. Definitely a ensemble fic. You liked Martok, I hope?

Summary
An AU in which Stephen resigns from Earthforce after the Minbari War and is an active Narn sympathizer during the events of B5. Also an AU where people occasionally listen to G'Kar. Takes place roughly parallel to the events of S2-S5, with dips in and out of canon. Alternating POV + a long project in developing interiority for both characters.
A lot of Atlassian world-shouldering burdens and the resulting grief, Narn worldbuilding, talking and mutual caretaking. (They also kiss eventually)

Last Known Trajectory
"Whatever happens next... happens to both of us." ~Thrawn

---
FINAL CHAPTER IS UP!!NOTE: Illustrations included with each chapter.
Shattered
“Eli, if you are listening to this message it means something unexpected has happened to me. Attached to this transmission you will find an encrypted file with the access codes to my network of spies throughout the Empire and the Rebellion. I’m certain you will be able to decrypt it and put good use to them to further whatever mission you desire. I wish you the best.”
After months of trying to find Thrawn in the middle of nowhere, Eli receives more bad news.
((Set before Chapter 5 of Last Known Trajectory. This is an old prompt I did for Eli Week back in 2018. I decided to upload it as it directly ties in with the rest of the story. ))
A PATH OF BONDS
It's been 6 years since the Liberation of Lothal and, after following Ezra's last known trajectory, Sabine and Ahsoka have finally found a clue that will lead them to his current whereabouts, deep in the heart of the Unknown Regions... What Sabine doesn't know is that nothing could have prepared her for what they would find once they got there.
Visions and prophecies have more than one meaning... and perhaps this fated meeting could be the first step toward a larger journey.
[[NOTE: Illustration included at the beginning. Sequel to Last Known Trajectory]]

Summary
Disheveled is the Doctor/Rose love story as I saw it during S2. It is an award winning fic, written and posted during the original airing of S2 and S3 of new Doctor Who. It contains elements that appear much later in the series, but those are purely coincidental. Essentially a Doctor/Rose love story of epic proportions, spanning many regenerations, it relies heavily on Old School canon, some of which has been Moffed. It is a long fic, over 500 pages, and full of biological and culture detail for Time Lords, mostly based on my imagination and views of old school canon.
I think of it as a happy-ever-after story, but there are major angsty, triggery things that happen as we meander along. This is the warning you get for those. Fiction without conflict and surprise is hardly worth anyone's time. This work is for emotionally mature readers who can tolerate sexual exploration, tension and surprises.
