Well, kinda. Real life posts are f-locked, fandom nonsense is not. I'm not picky about adding, I just like to know what's going on, so comment on this post to let me know if you're friending. :)

Slow Burn
Scotty/Gaila
PG-13

( we need to feel breathless with love/ and not collapse under its weight... )

Slow Burn
Scotty/Gaila
PG-13

( oh, instincts are misleading/ you shouldn't think what you're feeling/ they don't tell you what you know you should want... )

Chapter Six

Slow Burn
Scotty/Gaila
PG-13

( excuse me, I think I've got a heartache... )

Chapter Five

Slow Burn
Scotty/Gaila
PG-13

( it's tearin' up my heart when I'm with you/ but when we are apart I feel it too... )

Chapter Four

1) Post ten of any pictures currently on your hard drive that you think are self-expressive.
2) NO CAPTIONS!!! It must be like we're speaking with images and we have to interpret your visual language just like we have to interpret your words.
3) They must ALREADY be on your hard drive - no googling or flickr! They have to have been saved to your folders sometime in the past. They must be something you've saved there because it resonated with you for some reason.
4) You do NOT have to answer any questions about any of your pictures if you don't want to. You can make them as mysterious as you like. Or you can explain them away as much as you like.

( I have way too much crap saved on here. )

Slow Burn
Scotty/Gaila
PG-13

( blame me for where you are/ tell me what I got to lose )

Chapter Three

Can I just say I am THRILLED by the news that RTD is coming to the States? I can't wait to see what he does. I don't care what fandom says, I think he's a genius.

And yes, that does mean I loved Children of Earth. It was fantastic. The best Torchwood's ever been.

Heyyyyy, so I wrote a sequel to Tiny Spark. Are you surprised? Cause I kind of am!

PG-13
Scotty/Gaila

( I watch the doorway/ quietly wait for you/ this is a nightmare/ I wanna date you... )

Chapter Two

So Mr. Simon Pegg updated his blog today to say that last week, his wife had the baby and it's a girl! Hooray for them! Glad they're doing well. I bet she's adorable. Anyway, that made me happy this morning.

There's a new Whole Foods in the area and they have this little cafe in there, it's quiet and has a nice view, and there's no counter where the people look at you and wait for you to buy something like they did at the Starbucks I used to go to all the time. So I love it. I'm going to go there again today and do some writing. It's my new favorite spot.

So kh_mattie and I have totally bizarre conversations in the middle of the night.

kh_mattie : I read an article about a man that had sex with his car and I was like, man, make that the enterprise and that's totally Scotty or Kirk. lol
sarah_actually : LOL omg
sarah_actually : how do you even do that
kh_mattie : DO YOU REALLY WANNA KNOW

( yes you do )

Title: Tiny Spark
Characters: Scotty/Gaila
Rating: Teen
Chapter Summary: Shore leave is over. Back to normal.
Author's note: Thank you everyone who read! I'm already brainstorming for a sequel, so keep an eye out. Thanks to kh_mattie for the endless enthusiasm and the word "calibrate."

( It was with a certain amount of relief that Scotty returned to work the next week. )

Title: Tiny Spark
Characters: Scotty/Gaila
Rating: Teen
Chapter Summary: Scotty will never drink again.
Author's note: You guys are awesome. :)

( The following morning, Scotty woke late... )

Chapter Five

Title: Tiny Spark

Chapter Summary: Scotty's shoes are untied.


( It was nearly dark by the time the hike was over. )

Chapter Four

Title: Tiny Spark
Characters: Scotty/Gaila, Kirk, Spock, Uhura
Rating: Teen
Chapter Summary: Two words... nature hike.
Author's Note: Thanks to kh_mattie  for helping a sista out. She is the shiznit.


( What Scotty was currently experiencing was very disorienting... )

Chapter Three

Title: Tiny Spark
Rating: Teen
Characters: Scotty/Gaila
Disclaimer: No, I don't own these people, although I am currently obsessed with them.
Summary: Scotty's drunken misadventures while on shore leave.
Author's Notes: Blame kh_mattie  for this. She made me do it. Also, the title comes from a song by Brendan Benson of the same name. I feel it is appropriate for the tone of this fic.

( Scotty found his way into a bar. )

Chapter Two

So I made some icons for the first time in forever. I was inspired by Spaced, which I've been watching nonstop today and am now obsessed with.

1. 2. 3.

If taking, credit is appreciated. :)

Hey guys, so guess what? I've been forced by someone who will remain nameless kh_mattie to write fic, and I've done it. It's not done yet, but I'll post it when it is. It is, of course, NuTrek, and it is Scotty/Gaila, because for some reason it occurred to me. So what I'm saying is, I really hope she's still alive at the end of the movie. Otherwise... well, otherwise I'll just have to... I don't know. Not care, and continue to exist in denial. Seems to work for plenty of other people, so why not me, is what I say.

ETA: I wrote "ben kweller" in the location box. I was tempted to leave it, but then I would've just looked dumb.
