Anyway, I've been writing fic

[lizbee]

So first of all, I am a very simple woman. You give me a grumpy man in a Starfleet uniform roughly a generation older than everyone else, looking at his colleagues and going, "These people have taken their trauma and used it to become more emotionally honest, vulnerable and compassionate people? Sounds fake, can't relate, do not ask me about my feelings" and I will claim him for myself.

Commander Rayner even has the advantage of being actual canon, not just a character I created by extrapolating from the evil mirror universe version we got on screen.

Since Rayner has no canonical love interest, and I can't ship him with Holly Hunter's Starfleet Academy character until she has a name, I had to make my own fun.

"let's pretend Kat was saved in 'Face the Strange' and handwave the physics"

I love to see it!

[lizbee]

Honestly, it's nice to have a way to save her life that doesn't also inflict horrifying trauma and body horror on her.

I mean. I could simply choose to write fic that DOESN'T inflict horrifying trauma and body horror, but anyway...

Aw but we have to make our own fun!

[goss]

The art! Hee. I'm only about halfway done watching this season of Discovery, but am enjoying Rayner immensely. ♥CKR♥

Although I have only heard secondhand of Rayner (or indeed any part of Discovery since we're still in S1 of TOS, lol), the art is adorable and I support you on principle!
