Wheel of Time Star Trek AU 🌟🖖
Sometimes you just need to nerd out and combine your two favorite shows hehe.
Text from the drawings is written out below the cut!
When I think of this AU the "present day" would be like, early DS9 timeframe I guess? The angst potential of the upcoming Dominian war... delicious.
Moiraine works for intelligence as a secret operative but she is a very reluctant one. Her family connections, eagerness to know things, and skill at subterfuge made her a prime candidate but she only shares things she thinks would benefit the greater good. She shares more with Siuan and Lan than she does with her bosses, and runs rogue operations if she thinks she can't trust anyone else in Starfleet, especially when the Dominion starts invading.
I considered making Moiraine Siuan's first officer but I do like Leane for that. First officer would put Mo in a better position to gather intellegence than science officer but it also doesn't suit her very well. I initially wanted them all to be on the same ship but Siuan being a captain and Moiraine remaining (somewhat) stationary tickled my brain so I imagine Mo and Lan working on a big Starfleet station DS9 style, where Mo could gather intel on all the comings and going and conferences and whatever, and Lan being chief of security of the station.
For Lan/ L'Lan's name,, I'm no expert on Vulcan language so this is what i got from the internet but the prefix L' means bearer (of), and Lan in vulcan means rank. So his name being bearer of rank could literally notttt be more perfect for him. Idk if in this AU it will be L'Lan or L' An or just Lan or like,, Al'Lan idk!! if anyone has like great Vulcan language insights lmk.
Idk it's not fleshed out yet at all!!! Just thoughts and little scenarios bouncing around in my head!!!!
Drawing him I got desensitized to Lan's bangs but omg. It does look so cursed but hey he holds to traditions. Also he wears blue eyeshadow. For uh tradition.
Moiraine - 50% human (father), 50% vulcan (mother)
Joined Starfleet to be a researcher/historian, but was recruite by Starfleet Intellegence straight out of the academy. They had their eye on her from the start.
She resents her human side and has spent most of her life surpressing that side of herself. She was raised by/around emotionally volatile humans (Damodreds) and left home age 13 to study on Vulcan until she was old enough to Join Starfleet Academy.
Mindmelded to Lan. They're best friends, met on Vulcan.
Married to Siuan, met at the academy where they were roommates. Siuan helped her embrace her human side more.
Guilt tripped into becoming an intelligence officer.
Siuan Sanche - Captain/scientist. Human.
Grew up on a small earth colony where Starfleet was not well-regarded, close to the DMZ (demilitarized zone).
Rose through the ranks fast because of her impressive (battle) strategies and ability to puzzle out/solve problems.
Married to Moiraine, who keeps her informed on her intel. Siuan uses her higher rank to help her with missions. As captain she is more informed and can pull strings.
Started as a marine exo-biologist but switched to command after recommendation after taking charge during an awaymission gone wrong.
Her quick thinking makes her lead choice for battling the Borg.
L'Lan - Lieutenant commander, chief of security. Vulcan
Orphaned as a baby, his parents were very renowned philosophers and spiritual masters. They were killed in an attack on their shuttlecraft. L'Lan was raised by his parents' fellow masters in a temple, prepping him to become a master himself.
Met Moiraine at the temple where she came seeking help to control her emotions. After initial conflict they became best friends and eventually mindmelded.
Uncomfortable with the path laid out for him but unsuer what else to do. Mo joining Starfleet made the decision easy for him.
Recommended for command but he wanted nothing to do with it. Working security and helping Mo gave him a purpose.
Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo is a standout novel that masterfully blends Ivy League academia with the eerie undercurrents of the occult. While college life hums in the background, the secretive Ancient Eight societies treat Yale as the playground for their arcane rituals.
At the center of it all is Galaxy “Alex” Stern, a survivor of a troubled West Coast upbringing, who is unexpectedly recruited into Lethe House, the unofficial "ninth house”, tasked with overseeing and policing the magical dealings of Ancient Eight.
As Alex struggles to adapt to her new reality, she must learn to navigate not only the supernatural dangers of Yale’s hidden world but also the social labyrinth of privilege, power, and manipulation wielded by her wealthy peers. Can she find a place for herself in this world of magic and legacy, or will the darkness, both mundane and magical, consume her?
The Relationship Mechanic by Karmen Lee is billed as a queer harlequin novel set in small town Georgia. The story kicks off when Jessica blows into town and meets the local mechanic Vini, which sets off a steamy "no-strings attached" entanglement. While both women want to keep things casual, deeper feelings brew. Can they navigate a new romance, when they both know Jessica is only in town for a few weeks?
A fun a spicy read, what this book lacked in plot and character development it made up for in charm. While the characters seem to only ever speak or think about their romantic interest, in the few moments that they interacted with the friends and family Lee delivers the best dialogue in the book. If your first love is romance novels, this one is sure to delight but for readers who tend toward other genres, I would suggest skipping.
