Daniel and Vala’s relationship has grown in the past month since they’d discovered just how much they mean to each other aboard the all but doomed Odyssey. Stuck in a time-dilation field with not much else to do, Daniel is tortured by Vala’s positively indecent dress…

This is set during S10 E20: Unending, in the time-dilation field aboard the Odyssey, a month after that pivotal scene where Daniel and Vala FINALLY get together.

Voyager is hijacked by a hostile alien society, her crew scattered across a barren wasteland of a planet. Isolated from everything he knows, Tom Paris must rely on his talents for flying and survival just to make it through each day. His job brings him to a harrowing, hellish factory compound where he finds a familiar face: B’Elanna Torres. She’s the only person with the ingenuity and resourcefulness to secure their escape, but before B’Elanna can save Voyager, Tom must save B’Elanna. An AU that takes place in early season three.

Connect the Dots

A canon-consistent history from Threshold to Unity.

My notes:

Every old school P/Ter knows this one. Following Tom and B’Elanna throughout season 2 and 3, and filling in the gaps (or connecting the dots, as it were) between episode scenes, we’re shown their evolving friendship in much more depth than the show ever did. It’s head-canon for me now and I’m at peac... Read more

Guerdon

Written by dalaire
Rating: Teen and up

Wandering along the Federation-Cardassian border, an exiled pilot is drawn into a boon he doesn’t want, but accepts for want of options. Having thrown herself into what work she could get, a troubled young engineer finds herself in a new situation. Both make use of their lots and their lives as they skirt the DMZ and deal with the forces at work there.

Set 16 months before “Caretaker.”

My notes:

Really beautiful, long, slow burn AU. Tom ends up in the DMZ after the Caldik Prime fallout, and he wanders as a drunk for a while before being tricked into being the captain of a rundown tradeship called the Guerdon. This story follows them both before they meet, exploring Tom’s alcohol addiction and B’Elanna&#... Read more

I Said Honey

Looking for a star to pray on, or wish on, or something like that.
Maybe Vala and Daniel would be less complicated if they knew what they actually wanted.

Between the scenes of episodes with Daniel and Vala: Spoilers starting from “Prometheus Unbound” and moving forward from there.

Scully picks the next game.

(A post-The Unnatural story)

My notes:

After Mulder teaches Scully how to play baseball, Scully decides to teach Mulder pool. Then Mulder teaches Scully how to play volleyball. Then Scully shows Mulder archery, etc. This series is deliciously innuendo-heavy. The writers take turns exploring the different ‘lessons’ Mulder and Scully use as an excuse t... Read more

Falling Together

Leaning up against his bedroom door, she closes her eyes as she lets out a shuddering breath. Even though only moments ago she was fast asleep on his sofa, oblivious to the world around her, her mind and body were now humming with nervous excitement. How many times has she dreamed of this? Wished and hoped and prayed that they would both come to their senses, and just fall together one night.

Was tonight that night?

My notes:

One of the most plausible and realistic all things fics, in my opinion. Also, holy forking shirtballs is this hot.
