22 for Jin-Lo!!!

and then 3 & 17 for Jocasta :D

22) headcanon for Jin Lo!!

JIN-LO RAYCE MY BELOVED!! So, maybe this is a broader head canon than just Jin Lo, but I picture the Temple as almost a magic entity itself - an absolute maze of secret passages, fake doors, hallways that seem to go nowhere, hidden chambers that are used for something specific and then lost for generations and rediscovered. And the Archives being one of the oldest existing parts of the Temple and such an important place, they're some of the most riddled with secrets.

Jin-Lo spent his Padawan years with Jocasta determined to find as many of its secrets as possible, and every so often, when Jocasta thinks he needs a pick-me-up, she just casually reaches over to scratch the nose of one of the busts and a giant secret door opens in one of the bookcases. Jin-Lo's mouth drops. She just laughs. "Enjoy." She'll probably expect to see him again in another few days.

3) NoTP?

I think you meant generally, but I was already thinking about Jocasta for the second half of this, and got mad. :D

This is a funny answer because obviously I ship Dooku and Jocasta in all kinds of various iterations - as a couple, as a polycule with Sifo-Dyas, as friends with benefits… (hell, I might love writing them best as bitter exes in Thunder Answered Back) but I think I would have really hated whatever they were going to do with the love story between them in AotC. Like ughhh, can you imagine how annoying that plot would be for me personally?? First, the 1.0 reheat of the Romance Leads to the Dark Side plotline (already fraught) and how little that makes sense in Dooku's greater story. Also, what it reduces Jocasta to.

Even now, some within the fandom have pinned the Deserving Fall of the Jedi Order on her for being checks notes ah yes, lightly snarky to Obi-Wan that one time, so I can't imagine the hate she would have got for being a female character who has the audacity to exist onscreen taking up plot while being older who bore some "responsibility" for Dooku's fall. Don't get me wrong, I would love to see expanded screentime in AotC for either of those characters, but I shudder to think of the takes.

17) What's a book, movie, or show you think Jocasta would like?

Actually, like Dooku, I think Jocasta reads EVERYTHING. I think her ability to consume books is legendary and she has an opinion on everything from Space BookTok to Palpatine's ghostwritten and highly fictional memoir Sheev: an Understated Courage to poetry and lit crit. She manages to stay on top of this impressive heap of reading despite her Archive responsibilities because she does not sleep.

And yes, ahem, Bride is on her holds list. She makes direct eye contact with the Archive acolyte who hands her the holobook and thanks them politely. She's going to read it in her office over lunchbreak with her salad. Why not?

#this was so much fun Boli thank you I needed some time with Jo today #jocasta nu #I actually haven't read Bride yet but I think I have to because a few non-fandom friends read it and are suddenly inexplicably into abo

For the touch prompt, #24, please.

Thank you so much Jess! <3 I couldn't get our coffee-talk out of my head🥺☕

24. "whispering in their ear, lips touching the skin"

“Now,” he says, with the tinny clatter of the dishes plunked down next to her, without a splash, “I didn’t add too much sugar— because, well, we ain’t got any, and also because I know you don’t like when it sticks at the bottom.” She laughs, the warm timbre growing in her chest. “Thank you." She doesn’t say anything when he sits next to her, not across, their elbows barely touching.  He sips at his own cup, black, the way you drink it when you need it like a tonic. She lets her hands warm around the enamel mug, watches the coppery color of the coffee inside, the lightest touch of milk. Not like his hair, a chocolatey brown. Maybe if they all got a little bit more sun. It was some stupid detail, the sugar. She must have mentioned it in the course of a conversation weeks ago, surrounded by talk of memories and home. Powdered coffee crystals on rushed assignments, the corner automat and Sunday mornings. Like they ever had enough sugar for her to have specifications about it. She wonders if he ever takes his differently. Before the war, she means. She wonders if he even likes it. He’s not grimacing, just sitting here with her.  “How is it?”  It’s not a lie when she says, “delicious.” He smiles. “Just what I needed.” A beat, and she knows the answer here, asks it anyway. Yours?” The grin on his face tightens by a centimeter, fades under the lightbulbs. “Gets the job done.” She looks back down at her mug, the faint print of her lipstick, out the window to the gray afternoon, across her shoulder to him. “A girl might get used to this kind of treatment.” “Hope she does.” Now don’t go saying things like that. Her stomach twists, somewhere deep in the pit, and suddenly what she’s most afraid of is someone walking in. She makes to stand, hastily sipping the coffee as she does.  “Where you off to?” She leans down on impulse, pressing her lips to the top of his ear. Like they do this all the time. Like it’s a habit. “Got a story to file.” “Right. Well, let me know if there’s any trouble.” “Thank you,” she says, suddenly a whisper. Presses a kiss under the lobe. He lolls his head slightly, leaning into her touch. “For the coffee.” Maybe she imagines it, the smallest exhale in his voice. “Anytime.”

Grand babbee cardassian has broken me… also more Jocasta content pls we love a quiet queen

GRANPA GARAK! A DISIPLINARIAN!

He gets up early every day to pick fresh fruit from the garden for his grandkids. Elim III is his Little Regnar. Lim thinks he's going to spoil them rotten (the orphanage and the dirt floor gardening shed that they lived in was CHARACTER BUILDING. it made him the MAN HE IS TODAY.)

JOCASTA LOVE.... she's truly an underrated queen.. here maam ms head scrub nurse you dropped your crown 👑

She cares about outward presentation as much as any Cardassian, but especially hair (cardassian hair being much thicker and coarser than human fur.)

also she refers to julian as Dr Bashir at work just out of propriety and respect. most people don't know that they're father and daughter simply because she does not care to tell them. they just think she's his favorite because she's good at her job and gently takes no shit

^ scenes that play before the least pleasant vacation miles has ever been on

#dee s 9 #garashir adoption au #HEEHEE I LOVE GRANDPA GARAK... walking around with a cane but looking supremely dignified.. #old age would look very well on him i think #julian just looks like a salt and pepper pipecleaner #APBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBT bebe belly #you see. im going into peds. for purely academic reasons. #also jo doesnt need to bully julian she just shoots him a 😬 and hes instantly a medical student #getting his wrist slapped by the scrub nurse for breaking sterile field #like 'shes so scary but its cause shes riiiiiiight ughhhhhhhhh' #thank youuuuuuuuuuu for nice oc asks.... 🥹 i love them..... #i truly cannot decide if i like jo better with the braid coronet or the jadzia bouffant. maybe both. fancy bitch #shes such a girlygirl iskra wants to be one but can't be assed to comb her hair every day with proper oil and do scalecare #jo is lovingly buffing garak's nails before broadcasts so he looks his best #and initially using WAY too much hair oil on julian. takes weeks to wash it all out

WIP Ask Game

I was tagged by @notasapleasure: thank you so much for the tag, my dear. <3<3<3

I have told myself that this is the year I finish or yeet, so hopefully this list will be getting smaller for a while. Feel free to send me an ask or a reply about any WIPs that seem enticing, and I can share some thoughts and/or a snip.

Star Wars

Codywan Pirate AU: yes, I have been writing this for like a year and a half, and no it still doesn't have a title, but it is coming along! Slowly and hopefully somewhat steadily

Codywan Fake Imperial Husbands: a fic inspired by this gorgeous art from @frostbitebakery and by her miraculous mind

Melshian dramatic reunion take two: this one doesn't even have a single line written, but it came out of my attempts to bide the time until Andor season two by imagining the most melodramatic ways that Cassian and Melshi could see each other again

MCU

Stony North and South AU: my unforgivably overdue MTH fic, inspired by the Elizabeth Gaskell novel (and the BBC adaptation with Richard Armitage smoldering amid floating puffs of atmospheric cotton)

Stony Sequel: a sequel to my 5+1, canon-divergence fic Three Little Words; or, Five Times Steve and Tony Didn’t Actually Apologize + One Time They Did that would have followed the alternate timeline through Endgame. I started it so long ago, and I really don't know if I'll ever be able to write the rest, but I've so far been too attached to what's there to delete or scrap for parts

Sambucky Old Guard AU: sadly, I'm not sure this one will ever be finished either, but I really love the first and only scene I wrote, and I think the concept has good juice

Top Gun

How to Shoot Somebody Who Outdrew You: this WIP is the only one that has a title, and a title is almost all that it has lol

Open tags to anyone else who would like to play!!! @ me with your WIP list, babes.

💖joooooo! if you were a janitor, what would your jinki be?

Omg Amira🥺 this is such a kind and thoughtful question to ask me, and I feel so guilty that I don’t have a solid answer for it yet.

At first I was thinking about having a bobby pin or hair clip as my jinki, because I’m always pinning my fringe back from my forehead when I’m trying to relax or I’m at home cause it gets in the way— and that could then double up as a weapon. The ends sharpening to a point kinda like how Riyou fights with her scissors. But then I started to think about whether I’d even want to be a janitor that fights like that.

So then I thought maybe my jinki would be an old compass that Enjin found one day on one of his many strolls into the contaminated zone. Thrown into the Abyss because the owner clearly thought it was broken, or unnecessary when they have all the technology up in the sky. And when Enjin presents it to me it’s got a brass chain attached so I can wear it around my neck or in my pocket a little like a pocket watch. But I wonder why he even gifted me it in the first place, and he tells me it’s because I always seem to look lost and hopefully it can help me find myself🥺 but as he activates the jinki it’s used to help the Janitors get in and out of different zones, and to also find our way out of bad situations if we ever get lost or can’t find our way out of somewhere. Like it’s always helping me find my friends— my family?

And later on when me and Enjin finally get together, he carves our initials into the back of it🥺

#enjo #I was trying this as my ship name but idk if I like it yet it feels so short #enjio looks disgusting and jojin is cheesy #maybe he’ll have to be enjo #I hope that doesn’t belong to a weird tumblr tag tbh… #jo talks #thank you so much for indulging me seriously #I loved answering this so so much😭😭😭

Do you think Cait and reeve are two separate people or the same? (Big Cait and reeve fan here :D)

OMG HI! Always love meeting another Cait and Reeve fan! Also I love all your fanfics! They're very good!

And to answer your question: seperate, absolutely. I'm not really picky about the how, if Cait is a highly advanced AI or if he was Inspired (though I personally prefer the Inspire way), but I am 100% of the opinion that Cait is his own person and people can pry that thought from my cold dead hands :D

(Obviously there's some overlap between the two, but that's in the same way that there's overlap in my personality and the rest of my family.)

What are your thoughts on their characters of the alternate universe also being neurodivergent?

Eg, Gon and Jihun both having autism. Or Yeong and Eunseob also both being neurodivergent.

First of all, what a great question! I’m very pleased you’ve got me talking about this in a public place, lol.

I think the best way to start is to think about the question in a general sense, rather than focusing on Eunseob and Jihun in particular. After all, the multiverse is vast, but the question here is… exactly how vast? It really depends on how you conceptualise it. In the TKEM canon, we’re shown different universes that contain variants of the characters we’re familiar with, and it’s implied that everyone exists with the same DNA in every universe, implying strict continuity within the universes… except that’s not quite right, is it? If that were the case, one would expect people to live and die at the same time in every universe, but we have proof that isn’t the case, even without Lee Lim’s meddling. Take Song Jeonghye, for example: she’s alive and kicking in the Republic, but in the Kingdom Queen Song died when Gon was very small (I think three years old in Korean age?), which was before Lee Lim started drastically altering the continuity between the universes. If people can die at different times in different universes, what happens if someone in one universe died as a baby, but in another universe in the infinite multiverse they went on to have children? These children wouldn’t exist in the first universe where they were dead, causing a big inconsistency between the universes.

That’s why I prefer to think of the multiverse using the mindset that, in the infinite multiverse, there’s a universe where every possible outcome of the universe has happened. This means that there are an infinite amount of universes where, for example, Lee Gon exists as he does in canon, where he exists as he does in our headcanons, and also an infinite amount of universes where he was never born at all. The implication of this is that, if you can think of something, it will exist somewhere in the infinite multiverse. (This also means that every fanfiction is canon, and hypothetically the canon characters could visit the universe of any fanfiction using the Manpasikjeok - I love having the concept of the multiverse in the show’s canon because it means that somewhere, somehow, you’re always right >:D)

With this in mind, my official, blanket answer for the question of whether or not Gonjo variants would be neurodivergent is both yes and no. There would be an infinite number of universes where they are, and an infinite number of universes where they aren’t.

However, you also asked me about these specific cases, so let’s talk about them!

Jihun… is a difficult one to call. What I can say at least is that if he is neurodivergent, he would probably need to be high masking to be able to reach a high position in the military. From his uniform, you can tell that he’s a pretty high ranking officer (I don’t have wifi right now and the signal isn’t good enough for video so I can’t check his exact rank at the moment), which means it would probably be difficult for him to serve if the military thought that potential neurodivergence would affect his ability to do his job. With that being said, it’s certainly not impossible. In my opinion, we haven’t really seen enough of Jihun to make an educated call either way, but from the way he was purposefully paralleled with Gon in the first episode, it’s not out of the question.

As for Eunseob, this is perhaps more likely. We’ve spoken about Gon and Yeong having an ND-to-ND connection, but I think it’s telling that when Gon first arrived in the Republic, Eunseob was the only one to really humour Gon and try and spend any time with him. I think, however, that a big point is how Yeong and Eunseob are presented as such polar opposites, with such extreme personalities. Neurodivergent traits are often characterised by extremes, and the way they’re characterised as extreme opposites in the show really lends itself to a neurodivergent reading for both of them. As for his exact diagnosis, I agree with you in our messages that he’s more likely to be ADHD, but admittedly I have’t really thought about this well enough to create a well thought-out argument as to why - it’s just kind of based on intuition and vibes, more than anything else. Something I want to note is that in @deesarrachi ‘s Polycule Cinematic Multiverse, Yeong has ADHD, and although last time I checked, the full fic isn’t ready yet, I can’t help but wonder if, in this universe, both Yeong and Eunseob have ADHD (and if you see this and would like to, deesarrachi you are more than welcome to expand on this in the comments or in a reblog)

Anyway, I think those are all my thoughts on the subject? Thank you once again for the question, you kept me very entertained while I’ve been sat on the train for a couple of hours :D

7. What are their favourite things to do together, for Jo/Bucky? You know I'm always interested in college newspaper AU, but whatever you feel like answering. :)

What are their favourite things to do together?

Going for drives and listening to the radio with the windows down, exploring a city together (in this case NYC), walking and talking, a baseball game on a summer afternoon, bothering their friends at their places of employment (mostly a Bucky but Jo gets in on it too), having little reading-picnics, nosing around bookstores, hanging out in someone’s dorm or apartment and kissing, doing coupley shit like bowling which Bucky takes very seriously until he starts to lose, at which point he’ll try to distract her by looking cute or buying her a soda or something.

Ship asks here and here!

I'll allow you to answer this ask publicly, but I'm going to continue going on anon after this just because it's what I prefer. Anyways this is my new dog Persephone :). I don't know how old she is or what her breed is because I got her from the pound (shes going to the vet right after she gets spayed so hopefully we can get an age verification!) She loves me so much to the point I have to physically restrain her from licking my face - LGL

GASP!! EVERYONE SAY HELLO TO LGL’S NEW DOG PERSEPHONE!

#she’s so stinking cute #and 10/10 doggo name I love it so much #thank you for emerging from the shadows for a moment to share with us!! #who knew it wasn’t Jo who would lure you out but a puppy ☺️ #gif warning #incredibly cute dog warning #LGL emerges from the shadows for a brief moment in time warning #see you on the other side babe 👋🏼
