I’ve been racing through watching these episodes much faster than I am writing them up. I’m currently in the middle of disc 6.

ST: DS9 Season 3, disc 3

At the start of the week, I posted a ficlet Reaching (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Kira Nerys, missing scene for 3.15 ‘Destiny). My first Deep Space Nine ficlet, and I know it’s niche, a response by me to something I felt was lacking in the episode as I rewatched it. After writing no fiction all of January and most of February, I was glad to have something to post. There has been a bit more fic writing than this since the end of February, but who knows if it’ll come to anything.

I watched Noughts and Crosses. Will post thoughts eventually.

Reaching. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Kira Nerys (Kira Nerys/Bareil Antos). PG. Missing scene from episode 3.15. 277 words. Summary: For a while, she is a grieving, devout woman.

So, given that E4 wasn’t making it easy for me to watch Star Trek: Discovery, and while those with Amazon can watch Star Trek: Picard, I realised that season 3 of DS9 was next on my DVD boxsets to watch pile.

Overall I’ve found the episodes of a similar quality, which is quite good, but with a sense that elements could be developed further (as I found when I rewatched seasons 1 and 2, back in 2015-16). I like that the events of the first two episodes have an impact on what follows, on top of the interspecies space politics already established and the on-station relationships—familial, working and maybe more.

( There are a couple of references to events that take place later in the series. )

Recs for fanfiction and fanvids in the following gandoms: Dawson's Creek; Marvel Cinematic Universe; Sherlock; Sky High; The Sound of Music; Star Trek: Deep Space Nine; and Strike. (There's nothing from Yuletide 2019, but some stuff is from Yuletides past.)

I said a little while ago that I was going to post a linkspam. Well, here goes in reverse chronological order. I've been holding on to these links for ages, and most of them come via my reading page.

( Shakespeare, Introversion, DS9, Tropes, Movie stuff and Denethor meta )

FWIW, I would have posted this this morning, but my computer/browser/a certain website would not co-operate. It would still be ridiculously late, though.

This is going to be about three of the episodes on this disc, as the last episode is the first of a two-parter, so I’ll group that with the episodes on disc 6.

‘Playing God’ 'Profit and Loss' 'Blood Oath' ( Read more... )

Who knows when I'll post about DS9 next, as I've been prioritising rewatching the Bourne movies in prep for the new film?

DS9 season 2 Disc 4

I started watching this disc several months after watching disc 3 and I watched two episodes consecutively, then took a month to watch the last two episodes, and on the whole, I was disappointed. ( Read more... )

So, there I was, starting to type up this post and, to cut a long story short, my charger went kaput. That’s 24 hours-plus without the internet at home! Obviously, it has been resolved (phew) and it wasn’t necessary to buy a new laptop, although that day is drawing nearer as it’s one thing after another with Buzz (my laptop is called Buzz) and I got it in over seven and a half years ago, which probably makes it geriatric in computing years.

Anyway, I can now post about Brooklyn Nine-Nine

Episode 3.06, I think

( Read more... )

And then in the ad break, I discovered The Good Wife was back on More 4. Mainly I'm miffed I didn't know before the event. I think I’ll stick to watching Brooklyn Nine-Nine live, even though now they’re down to one show a week, B99 only fills a half-hour slot and would be easier to catch up on, but series 6 of TGW was so dire, and I’m kind of just watching to see guest stars turn up rather than caring what Alicia does next...

Anyway

misbegotten made me scrumptious DS9 icons over at

oraclegreen featuring Jadzia, Kira and Odo.

I came back to Deep Space Nine after a bit of a break, but that was a while ago, and I kept meaning to write up my thoughts - telling myself I wouldn't watch the next episodes until I did. Clearly, I have finally finished Christmas prep, and can, after another break, move on to disc 4.

Overall, these were pretty good, but I was starting to expect more.

( Second Sight, Sanctuary, Rivals, The Alternate )
