WIP Meme

[teyla]

There's a meme going around on Twitter where you post a list of your WIPs (exact title of your document, no fibbing) and people ask about the ones they're curious about.

I have a lot of WIPs, and no titling discipline, so this one was amusing to collate, and also far too long for Twitter. I am adding the fandom to be slightly less cryptic. This goes back at least to 2016; I dug up some stuff I'd completely forgotten about.

Pick any you're interested in, and I'll tell you about them, and post a snippet!

(Sorry for just dropping a meme in here without interacting on anyone's posts or, well, anything. At some point in 2021 I will remember how interacting on the internet works. Until then, all I got is memes.)

That is a lot of wips! (I like that meme!)

I'll ask you about the Guardian Dok1 :D - and one other Guardian fic of your choice that you want to talk about.

Also, the Reboot one? Although I'm sure you're into the opposite of what I'm into in that fandom? :D

It's a great meme! More people should do it. :D

With sure-fire accuracy, you've sniffed out the one Guardian PWP WiP I have.

Zhao Yunlan is tied spread-eagled to his own bed.

It took Shen Wei the longest time to come out with his request, and even longer to specify it enough for Zhao Yunlan to know what he was asking. ‘I want to look at you’ was the first thing he said. Eventually, he added a ‘naked’, and then an ‘unable to move’. At that point, Zhao Yunlan’s dick was already signalling agreement. Zhao Yunlan had to swallow a few times against a dry throat to follow suit out loud.

---

A random other one is "state dinner". It's an attempt at my take on get-Shen-Wei-drunk, which I was planning to do at a state dinner Shen Wei doesn't want to go to. I may still finish this! Maybe.

"All we have to do is smile, be polite, and get out as quickly as we can."

Zhao Yunlan is speaking to him like he doesn’t know his duties. Shen Wei clasps his hands in his lap, regards Dragon City as it rushes by past the jeep’s passenger window. "I’m aware." There’s an unpleasant taste in his mouth, the urge to say something sharp that Zhao Yunlan is not the intended target of. He waits for it to pass, goes for something else instead that’s been bothering him. "Isn’t it premature to have a celebratory dinner? The agreement hasn’t even been signed into law yet."

Zhao Yunlan laughs, takes a corner a little too quickly. Shen Wei has to grab the door handle to steady himself. "I don’t know how Dixing diplomats do it—" Shen Wei refrains from pointing out that besides himself, Dixing doesn’t exactly have many diplomats— "but here in Haixing, they love to schedule these dinners when everything’s been agreed on, but nothing’s been signed yet. Keeps everyone civil."

Shen Wei isn’t sure that’s true. He’s not feeling particularly civil. He supposes the risk in insulting the other party is greater, though, if they still hold the leverage of withholding their signature. "I see," he says. Consciously relaxes his shoulders. "I will do my best to remain courteous."

And Star Trek reboot. I don't know what you're into in this fandom! I like the OT3 (Spock/Kirk/McCoy), and was going to write something about McCoy getting in on the action (hence the title), but it never went much of anywhere.

It takes Leonard a damn long time to figure out that Jim and Spock are boning.

Right after taking command proper of the Enterprise, over a bottle of brandy Jim divulged to him the details of his close encounter of the doppelgänger kind in that cave on Delta Vega. It sounded a lot like one of those old tales where the hero meets an ancient soothsaying crone who tells him his inevitable future. The gist of it seemed to be that Old Spock told Jim that his fate in life was to bone Young Spock.

At the time, Leonard laughed about it until he cried. But now, four years into their deep space mission, with Jim and Spock already established as best of friends, he's been observing things he can't explain without encroaching boning territory.

Hahahahaha \o/ That kinky one sounds good! The state dinner one has great Shen Wei voice. Likely to be finished also sounds good!

And Star Trek reboot. I don't know what you're into in this fandom!

I know most people are into McCoy, and I'm not. Although I think I don't hate the idea of an ot3 with Spock and Kirk. (I'm into Spock/Uhura. I've always been into Spock, but Uhura got made into a person in Reboot, and I am so here for that.)

The gist of it seemed to be that Old Spock told Jim that his fate in life was to bone Young Spock.

Muahahaha, not wrong. :D


p.s.: didn't you already finish the post-triple-wu-xie story? Or do you have another one?

p.p.s.: oh, and thank you for playing! Awesome meme indeed! <3

No promises on the state dinner! But I still like the premise, so maybe.

McCoy is my fave in TOS, but I'm not super fond of the Reboot version. He's fine, but he's not giving me what McCoy in the original gives me. Really, with Reboot, most of my fondness comes from my original TOS fandom days, where I was also into OT3. And yeah, sorry, I'm not super into Uhura in Reboot, or into Spock/Uhura. I disliked her being shoved into the stop-the-gay girlfriend role, and all of her appearances being only about her relationship with Spock. (Don't mind Spock/Uhura in original TOS fic, though! I've read some decent fic with that ship. This was a long time ago, though.)

didn't you already finish the post-triple-wu-xie story
I did! This WiP is a different take on the same concept, because at first, I wasn't convinced by the one I ended up finishing. I'm keeping this one around because it's just a generic opening, maybe I'll have a different idea for where to take it some day.
