loudly going "YOU'RE GOOD YOU'RE GOOD" to myself to ward off the memory of every embarrassing thing i've ever done
a non-selective plan for the resurgence of fic commissions
Edit: The two updated versions got lost in the reblogs, and people keep asking for characters, so I'm editing the original post now.
Also, after playing In Stars and Time, I have realised Siffrin isn't really voiceless in the way I meant, and people have said Six and especially Mono shouldn't count, but consider: it's my gender and I get to choose the blorbo

the Federation itself as a concept is so funny because the founding members are
the Vulcans, who have been friends with humanity for years but don't seem to actually like them all that much, instead regarding them with a sort of perverse fascination usually reserved for virology labs
the Andorians, who were fighting the Vulcans for like a hundred years
the Tellarites, who don't like any of these people and whose cultural trait is arguing, and
humans, whom nobody knew existed until last century when they shot themselves into space on a heavily modified nuke, invented world peace and won a fight with the nearest imperial superpower
like imagine you're the Romulan Empire and these weird monkeys who've barely figured out interstellar travel show up on your doorstep in the equivalent of a shipping container with missiles strapped to it, kick your ass in front of everybody, and then start a friendship club with 3 of your neighbours who all hated each others' guts until like a year ago. now I understand why every Romulan on the show is so angry
update map!!
some of these are inferences, some guesses, some just like obvious all based off this reddit post a friend directed me towards
This wonderful person even breaks down why they think certain houses are where so if you’re interested i highly recommend taking a look!
one of the most challenging skills i've had to learn as an adult is the art of figuring out whether i'm proportionally annoyed with someone or just tired and overstimulated and looking for reasons to be pissed off
Yes! The lateral violence! I see this so much irl as a lower class American so the parallels are paralleling! I'm screaming about it from the rooftops.
something I found very interesting throughout the series was all the lateral violence
sure eventually SecUnit starts to ever so slightly reduce the violence it does to other SecUnits but it still doesn’t fully recognise its own bias against SecUnits.
anyway here’s some SecUnit on SecUnit violence ft System Collapse
It’s battle style kept giving me over-dramatic wrestler-grappler vibes, lots of up close grappling and desperate scrambling, and i also like doing figure studies soooooo
I really liked in the last two books especially network effect it had more introspective thoughts
it’s constant running thoughts and internalised hatred about how awful secunits are
that it admitted to itself that its angry all the time in one brief line then never went into it deeper
how willing and eager it is to tear other sec units apart but hesitated on killing people (admittedly took a few books for that to happen) and starts disabling instead
doesn’t quite make that connection between the constant anger, the safety it feels in being violent to other secunits and the anxiety and fear it still feels about humans in power over it.
but the others are not so violent against secunits and it starts to secondguess its responses (but not quite its internal thoughts)
then starts to disable (some) secunits where possible and even voluntarily giving some govmod hacks
perhaps it’s starting to recognise other secunits are people too? may or may not branch out to combatunits when?
secunit gets trauma therapy when
