And All the Things Left Unsaid (6349 words) by Amatara
Fandom: Twin Peaks
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Dale Cooper & Albert Rosenfield, Dale Cooper/Albert Rosenfield
Characters: Albert Rosenfield, Dale Cooper (Twin Peaks)
Summary: Cooper’s been shot, and Albert still doesn’t know where they stand with each other. Which is symptomatic of who they are. You could fill a book with everything left unsaid between them; not that Albert’s planning on writing it, but he’s got a fair idea of how he wants it to end. Maybe not with sunshine and roses - some people aren't meant for happy endings, and he’s pretty sure that list includes him - but with honesty and hearts laid bare. Tonight isn’t quite that, but it’s a start. Missing scene for episode 9 ("May the Giant Be With You").

Notes: A short interlude, set during/after season 5's "In the Kingdom of the Blind". In which Timov receives two visitors, one of whom unexpected. Written because there is not nearly enough fic about functioning threesomes, and hardly any about these particular three, and I had a mighty need.

Current Mood: accomplished

Wow, it's been ages since I posted here. But I did manage to be at least mildly productive while I was off playing on tumblr!

(1) Someone started a B5 meme on LJ where people can leave and fill prompts, both kinky and other. While there haven't been many fills yet, I did write two stories so far:

Belonging (Babylon 5): Vir/Lennier, PG-13. Vir and Lennier meet again after the Telepath War.
One (Babylon 5): Jeffrey Sinclair, NC-17. Jeffrey Sinclair getting used to his new body, including the sex bits.

(2) I recently signed up at the Pandora roleplaying community, to play Londo Mollari alongside Hobsonphile's Vir and Starforgedsteel's G'Kar. Given that one of the first fannish discoveries I made after watching B5 was the roleplay Selena, Hobsonphile and Iamsab did at theatrical_muse for these characters, this feels strangely like coming full circle. So far I'm enjoying it tremendously, and we're exploring such threads as Londo's Keeper forcing him to attack Vir, Londo telling Vir the truth about the Drakh, and G'Kar visiting Londo in a prison cell. Future threads may include Londo and Vir being forced to share a bed in a too-cramped apartment, and finding a way to get rid of Londo's Keeper. *rubs hands in glee*

(3) Work has been utterly crazy (in a not-so-great way for a while, though things have been looking up and I'm starting to enjoy myself again) so I've been in a bit of a slump writing-wise. Still, some story ideas I'd like to find time to explore:

It's been almost a year since I wrote my big post-canon B5 fic Though I Walk Through the Valley, connecting the dots between Fall of Centauri Prime and War Without End, and I think I've finally taken enough distance from it that I might start to write the missing scenes I had in mind for it: Vir and Lennier on Centauri Prime, perhaps Londo's actual death scene, and... well, anything goes, so requests would be welcome too.
Continuing my foray into smut I started with the B5 (kink) meme, I really want to write some Londo/G'Kar/Timov. Preferably with D/s undertones where Timov ends up calling the shots, because Timov is my empress and I have a mighty need.

Current Mood: calm
