 “Janeway was a magnificent role. It was a life-changing and certainly career-changing role that I played, and I played her with every particle of my being. So now, she is resting. She is blissfully resting, but I am always in gratitude to her. And she may be resurrected. You never know.“  – kate mulgrew (x)

A favorite moment from Sprit Walk – Old wounds

“Medicine bundles were also rather private.”

“One was not forbidden to share the contents with another during ritual moments, but sharing was a gesture of great trust and affection.”

“Sekaya recalled being surprised when Chakotay revealed to her that he had shared his medicine bundle with Janeway, and wondered a bit about the motivation behind that.”

“Sekaya suspected that her brother just might be carrying a bit of a torch for his former captain.”

I’ve been reading

Old Wounds by Christie Golden for @voyager-book-club and this scen from s01e05 just got so much more meaning. And deliverd some nice hand porn. Also I loved learning more about Chakotay from his sister Sekaya. 

Something to warm our little shipper hearts.

The J/C Orphanage

jc-orphanage:

Excuse me, the what now?

You heard that right. This is The J/C Orphanage.

This blog is designed to let anyone share plot bunnies, started and abandoned stories, pieces of stories they have no use for, dialogues etc. etc. pp.

AND

put them up for adoption.

It’s fairly easy:

1. Person A started a story back in the day, but never got around to finishing it. They know they never will because they either don’t have the time or energy or moved out of the fandom or whatever. Person B has this crazy plot bunny they had originally planned to keep for themselves, but they realize they will never use it now. Person C has this awesome dialogue all written out, but no story to use it in, and they realize they won’t very likely ever write the according story.

2. All of these people sit on ideas and pieces, but they rot away on their hard drives, or worse yet, unfinished in the fandom, with fans waiting for them to get finished. All of these people may even feel guilty about that OR wish someone else would just do it for them. What to do?

3. Give them up for adoption!!! –> Don’t let your ideas or stories die in the fanfic graveyard. Too many stories have ended there, too many plot bunnies never developed, too many dialogue pieces and scenes forgotten about and collected dust in the far corner of a hard drive.

And here is how this is going to work:

1. The Original Creator will submit their creations for adoption, stating if they want an open or closed adoption. Open adoption means credit will be given to The Original Creator. Closed adoptions will transfer all right and claims to The New Parent. (With instructions as to what may and may not be changed and how they can be used. OC can request no NSFW material to be created out of their ideas.)

2. The New Parent falls in love and claims the creation, stating if they want sole custody or if they would be willing to share custody with other new parents.

3. The wonderful and innocent little creation gets a real chance for becoming something beautiful!
