A while ago, @light-of-luinil posed this question over on the 00QAD discord: what are some of the 00QAD boys favorite books to read or re-read?
And I had some thoughts on the matter.
Q
Q’s a big sci-fi & fantasy fan (no surprise) and loves JRR Tolkien and Isaac Asimov. He’s also very close to hacking GRR Martin’s computers to see how far along The Winds of Winter is. Q also really loves queer sci-fi and fantasy - Ursula K. Le Guin, Octavia Butler, and many more are on his bookshelves.
Even in
retirement (or “retirement”), Bond never quite adapts to a normal sleeping
schedule. His bedroom is equipped with the best blackout curtains he could
find, ready for him to lay down and sleep no matter the time of day.
His couch,
however, is positioned perfectly to catch the optimal amount of sunshine that
pours through the wide sitting room windows in the morning. He can be found
there as often as in his bed, napping in the warmth of the sun like it’s all he
needs in the world.

As part of Fanlore’s Fandom in Color themed month, we’re holding an editing chat over on our Discord this Sunday, 23rd July from 17:00-19:00 UTC! (What time is that for me?)
What is an “editing chat”? It’s a real-time chat over text where everyone works on doing some Fanlore editing, usually themed around pages of a certain topic. There’s no requirement to have edited Fanlore before, as we’re happy to show you the ropes! We’ll also have a list of suggested pages for anyone who isn’t sure what to edit.
The focus will be creating and adding to pages related to fans and fandom of color – characters, communities, events, activism, meta essays, and much more. If you’re passionate about expanding Fanlore’s coverage of this extremely important area – so are we! We’d love you to come along and take part. All participants will also earn a cool badge to post to their Fanlore user page!
Use this link to join our Discord server, and we’ll see you there for the chat!
Another tiny bit from my @steter-bang rancher AU. Y’all this is kicking my ass. My brain is in “no write only scroll” mode. Send help.
Peter has Boyd keep Stiles close to the house. He tells himself it’s because that’s where he’s most useful, which is at least mostly true. There is the hay bailer to be worked on, and Stiles is still working with Derek and the horse. There’s plenty to do with keeping the barn clean too, and Stiles even helps out cleaning up around the place, from flowerbeds to floors. He’s a hard worker, gets along with everyone, and they’ve got a full crew for range work this year, it’s just sensible.
But it’s been a week, and maybe Peter has gotten used to having lunch with Stiles on the porch. Maybe he’s gotten used to catching glimpses of him around the place, wearing the cowboy hat Erica insisted on giving him. Maybe he likes the bright sound of Stiles’s laugh, and the way Derek laughs now too, his shoulders loose and easy.
She’s not sure how it happened, but she’s ended up in the public facing part of the public sector. Most days, she wishes she could easily threaten people at knife point. Every day she wishes people treated her with more respect. But that was the same when she was an agent.
