#Scenes So Intimate You Feel Like You're Intruding

[request-remand]

Favorite ever L&O SVU fic of yours and if someone else's? Let's start a chain. Tag someone else!

It's always SO hard when someone asks for favorite fics

My absolute favorite Barisi fanfiction ever is Like a Monkey with a Miniature Cymbal by @margoblack

this fic is everything to me. I've re-read it in full plenty of times. i would tattoo it on my eyelids if I could. time loops are pretty much my favorite trope/device ("Palm Springs" is my favorite movie check it out) and this is just so well executed in terms of emotion, voice, and creativity. nobody does it like kelly.

Here are plenty of my other favorites in no particular order:

@ae-nar - Barmaro to Barisi pipeline series

I'm in denial about how hot barmaro is and this series makes me feel absolved of my sin

@mforpaul - Uniformed Awakening

just some excellent smut and developing relationship sweetness

@kenobifitz - absolution & liberation

virgin sonny, religious trauma, complicated feelings, comfort, adoration...all my favorite things

@heartbarisi - i'll do anything you say, if you say it with your hands

literally on my knees barking sobbing screaming for more of these (and the writer is aware)

@margoblack - Pretty Tied Up

Barba being a desperate brat loser, Sonny's sudden dominance coming out. dom!sonny is a tough sell for me in particular most of the time, but this one is so good

@barisistill - Spanish Red & I hope you understand

the first one made me super into blowjobs with tears and drool and mess for barisi and the second one is just the most vomit-inducing sweetness

Nyota Kissing Spock

[tennesseetrekkie]

Coming here to rant because this is generally the place to do it.

I'm enjoying Strange New Worlds, I really am! It's got a lot of things going for it and is by far the best of the new Treks.

Here's my problem: the whole Spock/Chapel thing.

First, she's engaged. I know the writers have said they haven't forgot about Roger Corby. I have trouble wondering why she was so upset about Andrea, feels like a double standard.

Second, Spock was always portrayed as having no real interest in her. She was in love with him but it was unrequited. Even under the effect of an alien virus he showed no interest ("The Naked Time"), even under extreme duress there was nothing ("Plato's Stepchildren"). If there was anyone on that crew you could believe he was romantically attracted to, it's Uhura. Which brings me to my third point...

What happened to Spock/Uhura??? They absolutely had a spark in TOS (see "The Man Trap" and "Charlie X" for starters), I mean, the first time Spock saw Uhura after sharing his mind with a Medusan he started quoting love poetry! And besides all that there's the matter of the Kelvin-verse. Y'all, they were together for around 10 years in the Kelvin-verse. This is an alternate reality, you say? Was it really that alternate when they first got together at the Academy before they met Kirk? Aren't they basically the same characters up to that point? If two people work really, really well in one universe doesn't that technically mean they would in at least the majority of universes?

What I would have preferred SNW to do is to dig into Chapel's search for Corby, show her journey to such an extent that "What Are Little Girls Made Of" feels like a payoff, a completion to her arc.

And explore Spock/Uhura! I always thought it would be hilarious if her flirting in "The Man Trap" was echoing earlier conversations. "Why don't you tell me I'm an attractive young lady?"Sounds like a Spock pick-up line to me! "Or ask me if I've ever been in love", he already knows she has. It's just... right there. It's completely beyond me why it's ignored. If Spock is going to have a love interest make it make sense!

[mforpaul]

I'm glad I'm not the only one having those thoughts. Like, I enjoy Spuhura friendship, there's no pressure to make them a thing. But bc of the movies, they are a thing and it makes you wonder why they are. I read somewhere that Spuhura didn't quite click with the original fans and I wonder why. I thought it was such a nice (fan-driven) way to explore the story when they made Spuhura happen. And honestly, Spock/Chapel doesn't have this appeal at all.

[xspuhurax]

You know, it was just a thought.

But perhaps an excellent one.
