    Time Event
    12:08a
    Nightfall [PG, Paris, P/T, one-shot]
    the department of backstory: way back when i was active on the PTFever mailing list, there was an older lady named Phyllis, whose moniker (using her initials) was PJs. when another lady named Pam joined sometime later, she also used the initials PJ, but was PJ in NH. eventually they dubbed each other Senior (PJs) and Junior (PJ in NH).

    PJs wrote some awesome poetry. i enjoyed reading it all (especially considering i suck ass at poetry), but it wasn't til one spring week when i was suffering from a major cold that coincided with her producing an angst poem from Tom Paris' POV titled "Nightfall". i read it to put me to sleep the first few nights. night five or six with a clogged head rolled around and despite dosing myself with NyQuil, it was nearly 3am and i could not sleep. so i figured i'd try to write. with a copy of PJs' "Nightfall" and a full box of Kleenex at hand came this one-shot.


    Title: Nightfall
    Rating: PG
    Pairings: Paris/Torres
    Warnings: Tom angst
    References/spoilers: post-fourth season implied
    Legal B.S.: Star Trek Voyager is owned by Paramount. None of it's mine....except for my muse's sometimes batshit ideas.

    Current Music: Wolf's Rain soundtrack, "Stray"

    Dark Surroundings [PG, Paris/Torres, one-shot, challenge fic]
    the department of backstory: i responded to a challenge put up by the archivist/owner of the Paris/Torres Collective site posted after the episode "One": "Just how claustrophobic is Tom, and why?" other respondees used such angles as an incident during Tom's Maquis days or battling deadly diseases as a child. i, given a lifetime living on fault lines in this lovely state of California and San Francisco's history of violent earthquakes, chose to blame nature. ;)


    Title: Dark Surroundings
    Rating: PG
    Pairings: Paris/Torres, a bit of Harry/Seven
    Warnings: some Tom angst
    References/spoilers: "One"
    Legal B.S.: Star Trek Voyager is owned by Paramount. None of it's mine....except for my muse's sometimes batshit ideas.


    I just don't like small, dark places, okay? )

    Current Mood: exhausted
    Current Music: Wolf's Rain soundtrack, "Stray"

    Fields of Gold [PG, Janeway/Chakotay, one-shot]
    the department of backstory: not having such resources as LJ with places to learn more about fandom, i wrote A LOT of songfics. a song i liked would give me a mental picture (like B'Elanna walking in the snow inspiring "Snowy Kessik Mornings" from repeated listening to Tori Amos' "Winter") and it would just snowball from there.

    i suppose i also committed the "crime" of naming a character after a friend. Ute K., a German JetCer, is a fabulous artist and did some of the most beautiful drawings of Kathryn and Chakotay (separately and together) that i had ever seen. her best friend, Anneke A., was the one who hooked her on Voyager and J/C, hence the dedication.

    looking back, my interpretation of Kathryn is not-quite-right. i feel better with Chakotay's dialogue than Kathryn's. you, dear reader, be the judge.


    Title: Fields of Gold
    Rating: PG
    Pairings: Janeway/Chakotay, implied Paris/Torres and Riker/Troi
    Warnings: mush!, character death mention
    References/spoilers: Jeri Taylor's Mosaic
    Legal B.S.: Star Trek Voyager is owned by Paramount. None of it's mine....except my wish that was never fulfilled...the Captain and Commander in a love affair. ;)


    You'll remember me...when the west wind moves, upon the fields of barley )

    Current Mood: hot
    Current Music: Sting, "Fields of Gold"
