Oh, look, what is it? Hmmmm…)))

It was one of my favorite days

Akatsuki girls 🖤

best part abt the star trek fandom is it’s so old and classic that there are research papers on pretty much every aspect you could think of regarding star trek. there are papers on the physics, the technology, the queer coding, the representation, the religious metaphors, the relationships, the feminism and the way certain characters work through reason.

the amount of impact that star trek has had is genuinely so astounding to me, and i can’t believe there’s so many people that look at the show and see so much there to analyse.

I finally finished my Uzumaki Kushina drawing! Kind of rushed it at the end because, honestly, I was getting kinda tired of working on it xD

flight attendant Sasuke’s pilot cabin adventures ☆

“As requested, your cup ramen.” Sasuke drawled, completely unamused. If there was something that was worse than being groped by those horny passengers it was running around doing errands for this moron.

Not to say Naruto was a bad pilot, on the contrary he was quite good in what he did. It was just his personality was Sasuke’s polar opposite, and it irked him to no end to have to listen to him.

“Ah, Sasuke. How unexpectedly nice of you to deliver my food for me. Thank you very much.” Naruto smiled at him, relaxed now that the plane was on autopilot.

Sasuke narrowed his eyes, glaring irritably at the pilot. “Shut up and just eat this disgusting ramen.“ 

When he saw Naruto’s hand extend towards him he naturally assumed he was reaching for the ramen, so he didn’t pay it any mind. But what he didn’t expect was for the idiotic blonde to hook an arm around his neck, yank him forward, and push their lips together in a messy kiss. 

Sasuke’s eyes widened twice their usual size, as he was forced to stare into that frustratedly good-looking face. Naruto’s eyes were shut, as if he was completely intent on the task at hand; namely, kissing the life out of Sasuke. 

The cup ramen wobbled on its silver platter, and Sasuke was sure that despite his efforts some of it spilt. Sasuke only worried about it for a second though, with those talented lips running across his own distracting him.

In his mind, Sasuke would maintain true to the fact that he remained unresponsive to the kiss, not participating at all. Yet, beneath that layer of denial deep down Sasuke knew that he too had indeed kissed Naruto back. If only for a second, his lips slightly parting, his breath escaping his mouth only to be sucked in by Naruto’s.

And then the moron grew bold, running his tongue across the seam of Sasuke’s bottom lip, ultimately shaking him from this suspended surreality.

The flight attendant pulled away from Naruto’s mouth, which seemed very eager to explore Sasuke’s own. As if the spell was broken Naruto’s eyes flew open, his cerulean irises locking into Sasuke straight away. They were looking at Sasuke with such intensity, that he couldn’t help but to look away.

“Wh-What do you think you’re doing?!” Sasuke gasped, humiliated to find the kiss had left him more than a little breathless. 

Naruto raised an eyebrow at him, “Uh, I know you’re as anti-social as they come, Sasuke, but you must know what kissing is? Right?”

The idiot actually looked concerned that Sasuke had no concept of the word. 

Scowling at him, Sasuke wiped across his mouth with the back of his hand, pretending to be disgusted at the idea of naruto’s mouth on his and valiantly ignoring his erratically beating heart.

“Why did you do that?”

Shrugging, Naruto showed him a lazy grin, looking much too pleased with himself, “You were being so sweet, I just couldn’t take it any longer.”

“I’m not fucking sweet! Don’t you get it yet? I hate you.” Sasuke growled, cursing himself for losing his temper so quickly. With this idiot it’s so hard not to. 

“But you bought me my ramen, which obviously means you’re trying to impress me. And the way you thrust the cup at me, so demandingly, I can see how much you truly care about me!” Naruto declared, his blues eyes practically shining in determination. 

“WHAT?!” Sasuke exclaimed, both in shock and indignation. Who does he think he is!?

“First of all, I bought you that shitty excuse for food because you specifically requested it to be delivered by me, nobody else. That was your order!” Sasuke explained, fuming at the sheer nerve of Naruto. The blonde was looking at him so earnestly, and Sasuke just wanted to shake some goddamn sense into him!

“And secondly, I couldn’t care less about you, and the minuscule percentage that actually does is only because you’re the pilot of this stupid aeroplane and without you we would crash and burn. That’s it, end of story!” Sasuke’s voice had risen the longer he talked, so that he was nearly yelling at the blonde pilot. 

“Sasuke, cut it out! I know you really need me right now, but I am the pilot after all. I can’t lose my focus.” Naruto said, and Sasuke would have thought he was joking except the idiot looked so very serious it was enough to make him believe Naruto actually meant it. 

Sasuke sighed, shaking his head in disbelief, “There’s something messed up in your head, for you to be so masochistic.”

“I’d say that’s more in your area, wouldn’t you? Sasuke?” And then Naruto had the audacity to wink at him, and gave Sasuke a lewd smile as he looked him up and down appreciatively. Then, he took his ramen off the silver platter, and began to eat. 

Sasuke stared at him for a full second before disappearing out of the cabin. And if anyone noticed the dark blush painted on his cheeks they didn’t say anything. Or perhaps it was Sasuke’s glare of doom whenever someone curious looked his way that kept them from saying anything. 

Life was hard for a flight attendant these days, especially for Sasuke. 

Headcanon where Sasuke is a prissy flight attendant hating his job more than anything in the world. There are the horny passengers groping him as he serves drinks during flights, constant jet-lags that make his mood swings even worse and then there’s the idiotic blonde pilot that calls him into his cabin at least twice during every flight demanding ramen and trying to strike a conversation with the raven, unfazed by the glares that would probably cause the plane to fall if it was anyone else in the pilot seat. 

Yes, Sasuke hates his job and he hates the warm feeling that bubbles in his stomach whenever he hears himself being called to the pilot cabin or whenever the moron makes a passenger announcement cracking lame jokes about the weather forecast and airport security. 

He hates when they stay in hotels between flights and he can see the blonde pilot surrounded by the other flight attendants laughing loudly in the hotel bar, the spark of jealousy that makes him grit his teeth and shut himself away in his empty room for another sleepless night.

But the thing he hates the most is how during the night he would feel his resolve crumble, his heart grow weaker and eventually he would find himself slipping out of his bed, knocking lightly on the door of the room across the corridor. There are no words exchanged as the blonde opens the door a bit too quickly, Sasuke hates the idea that the moron would be expecting him to come as if wasn’t even up to him to decide. The blonde goes back to bed and lies down and soon enough Sasuke follows, gritting his teeth in hatred as he hides his face in the broad chest radiating with warmth, feeling the strong arms wrap around him and light kisses being pressed against his throat. 

He would fall asleep in the tight embrace still trying to convince himself that this feeling clouding his judgement every day is indeed hatred.

Many people who read fanfiction also require the assistance of text-to-speech or audio description software. Blind and visually impaired people are very much present in the fanfiction and fandom communities, but are so frequently disregarded or forgotten about.

If you are writing a work and like to utilise paragraph breaks, please do not use combinations such as the following:

[Image description in Alt Text. I have used an image to avoid what I will describe below.] [ID: Four examples of punctuation and icons that are disruptive when used as line breakers. The first line is a series of O letters. The second is a series of asterisks. The third is a series of dots, circles and stars. The last is a series of tildes. End ID.]

The software will read these combinations out loud letter for letter or symbol for symbol. For example; it would read to the user the word ‘asterisk’ six times in a row, or the word ‘tilde’ five times in a row.

This is unpleasant, confusing and often irritating for blind or visually impaired readers. If you would like a similar sample of what it would sound like, enter one of the above combinations into Google Translate and use the audio button.

Here is a post by @ao3commentoftheday​ that also details this difficulty and provides links to downloadable audio transcribers and fanfiction audio readers. These are also helpful for if you simply wish to listen to fanfiction but can’t find a podfic of the work.

Screen Reader Friendly and Screen Reader Compatible are AO3 tags that help visually impaired readers track and access fanfiction that is consciously created with their needs in mind. Please consider adding these tags to your works in order to expand the range of works that visually impaired readers can safely and confidently access.

Alternatives to these are:

Reminder: ‘liking’ this post does not spread awareness.

I don’t know whether breaks with #’s cause the same problem (I assume they do), but as far as I know the rich text line breaks, dashes, or just empty enter spaces are fine.

I use screen-readers and personally I don’t mind a single symbol like a tilde (or two) used as a break. I actually prefer it, bc my screen-reader (Voice Dream) just sort of blows through those horizontal breaks like a car zooming through a red light at a traffic stop and it can be confusing.

But that’s only my preference, and I’ve seen this sort of accessibility commentary enough that it leads me to believe I’m… In the minority about that to the point that I myself use horizontal breaks, so… I don’t know. I assume it works differently with different software, and I don’t know how common it is for this “running the red light” issue that I experience with my own TTS (text to speech) is for others.

(I think it would be sort of fun to use fwoom! Or whoosh! as a scene break, but that’s just me.)

Though, if you use an “advanced symbol” (including non-Roman characters) be aware that there’s a chance that:

The OP links to this post by @ao3commentoftheday and I’d like to put in my two cents of recommendation for Voice Dream, too. One of my favorite features (it was a big deal to me idk about you) is the fact that you can download the pdf of a multichap fic on Ao3, import it to Voice Dream, and it will provide you a table of contents to navigate with.

It is so much more usable for me than the built-in accessibility features of IOS, and now runs for about $20 in the Apple App Store.

Peter, my English reader, is so good to me. He struggles a bit with the Star Wars, bless him, but he does his best. (Peter is also available as a “Sad Peter” option which amuses me endlessly.)

This is how he reads some common page breaks:

Not all TTS software is created equal, and how things get read (or if they get read at all) can vary. I’d love to see the community share and compile how different TTS read out some of the more common linebreaks, including the horizontal line bc I’m guessing there’s a lot of disparity there.

I’m happy now.❤❤

Sorry for new kimono spam, i guess that was the last one XD

To think that Sasuke’s thoughts were reaching a critical stage and that for him Naruto had to die by his own hands so that Sasuke could free himself from all his painful feelings for Naruto is so painful to watch but at the same time so beautiful. To think about the fact that despite all this, he was definitely not ready to kill Naruto, nor to let him die in any way. Think about the fact that Sasuke decided on his own to put his life on the line, despite to have a main goal in life : to get his revenge on Itachi but didn’t care to die in order to save Naruto during Haku’s arc. To think about the fact that Naruto, who had plans for his future since he was a child, was resolutely ready to die, first to protect Sasuke’s life but mostly to release Sasuke’s pain and burden.

And then, think about the fact that Sasuke cannot live in world without Naruto as Naruto also cannot live in a world without Sasuke. If Naruto dies, then Sasuke must follow him to the death, and if Sasuke dies, then, Naruto must follow him to the death.

Fuck, i’m crying.
