    Summary

    “I wrote her a schedule for our time here the morning after we landed. Classes. Study time. Blocks for meditation. Training and exercise sessions. Even a lights-out restriction. Everything. She's following it, Quin." Luminara's voice was tinged with desperation. “To the letter.”

    “...Oh,” said Obi-Wan after a long moment. “Well. That's... not normal.”

    there are a number of reasons that ahsoka is one of my favourite characters in star wars, but the number of gay ships is definitely high among them

    Summary

    Winston tries to open a channel for emergencies. With the members of this new Overwatch, it goes about as well as you'd expect. (But I mean, last time it didn't go much better.)

    UPDATE: Last chapter is just a 50 page doc of how the story would have ended.

    This is basically all those Overwatch fandom memes distilled into one very gay chatlog story. It works brilliantly, actually. Only disappointing thing is that it has three established trans guys and no trans women at all?

    Summary

    When you think about Vriska Serket, she fits into every quadrant and she doesn’t fit into any quadrant. You type up symbols experimentally into trollian, but you never send them. Just when you think you’ve figured out where the puzzle piece fits, she changes shape. You change shape. So, you never ask her.

    In the end, it doesn’t matter that you couldn’t pick, because you two come up with a better word to describe it: sisters.

    i've lost the words to form recommendations well (if i ever had them) but,

    i really loved this fic, it's exploration of terezi and vriska's dynamic, and its discussion of what quadrants and relationships in general mean, and the ending and closure it gives for terezi and vriska that we didn't get in canon

    it's good

    Bookmarker's Notes

    So fair warning: it's unfinished. And I get the impression there's no ETA on finishing it. Still, this fic is delightful and constantly surprising and inventive. I worry about whether it's going to be able to catch all the balls its thrown into the air if it does ever update again, but things start to get explained in the later chapters so I'm hopeful. There's quite a lot of laugh-out-loud stuff already, and the character voices are spot-on, which is dead impressive given the large cast.

    The story is pretty complex - there are a lot of quirks and idiosyncrasies to this AU that go way beyond what looks like it's just going to be a straightforward Rosemary fic. For a while it manages to keep up a pace where each chapter totally changes the view we have of the work. There's a lot of Kanaya POV, which is very welcome! To some extent I feel like it almost tries to do too much, but the story works and can be followed despite the density of quirky stuff and otoh the level of weirdness makes it stand out a lot.

    Also I found the references (and there are quite a few) interesting and unfamiliar - I'm going to track down the CJ Cherryh book alluded to in this story for example.

    I hope this will be finished one day, but even if it never is, I think it's definitely worth reading.
