Hey, I'm Nina – an intersex, trans, genderqueer, Asian-American, angry-cat-in-a-paper-bag. I do Japanese and Chinese to English translation work, kinky lesbian fiction, a little shibari rope bondage instruction, and fangirl over my fave writers. Too much? No? Then you might be in the right spot.

I worry for the bloke that has to go through my dayjob browser history.

"What the heck is a Babymonster? Are AMVs still a thing? Why does she play Nemik's Manifesto over and over again on certain days? Is there an Owl in her House or something? So many boring chemistry papers."

I'm working from home today and she's coming home for lunch! Put on a good shirt. Get lube and my new harness out. This is gonna be fast but totally doable. 😏

Reality: she didn't want to poo at work, cat knocks over a fizzy drink, make sure ttrpg stuff is drying properly, talk about paperwork. Ugh.

It's a window of time though, right? You can see light at the end of the tunnel? You got this.

And if nothing else, at least you're smoking hot while doing it all.

"I welcome the challenge." The enormous woman limped to the front of the room and grinned like a wolf. "So which one of you thinks they can take me?"

Blondie glanced my way, eyebrows up. I shook my head. Then Princess turned in her seat to stare directly at me. I felt my stomach drop. #WIPSnips

I did not expect any politician to make me misty in-a-good-way On National Coming Out day this year. Can't express how much I needed this.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

I hope the track list includea Transgender for Everyone. I'm sick of that being a live-performance-only song.

The Guardian running a trans coming out story on the main page that's mostly positive? What year is this? Did I wake up in a better timeline? Wait, do I have a skill menu? No? Pants.

She was a sweetheart, but when I told her they were Trevor Project socks she didn't know what that was. I quickly changed the subject to her elaborate backpack. She wasn't gay. She was Belgian. 🤦‍♀️

Speaking of cute fits, how'd the scary angel skirt work out?

Me: Oh she's cute.

Her: "Hey, nice boots."

Me: Yes, notice me.

Her: "Are those... unicorn 🦄 socks?"

Me: Crap. No. Stop noticing me! Stoppit!

#LesFicFri 10 Oct: Jump

Third(?) draft of my still unnamed 🤦‍♀️ Vampire+Witch talking-out-their-300-year-relationship-stuff story.

Not sure why I'm trying so hard with this one, other than I feel like it needs context. 🤷‍♀️
"Ava, I’d like consent to use your eyes. Show me."

The return sending came immediately. "Of course, ma’am." I reached out to a familiar and willing mind, opened her eyes, and felt my heart leap to my throat.

A stunningly beautiful woman lounged at one end of a park bench. A nearby lamp illuminated pale skin and lustrous brown hair so dark it may as well have been inky black. I felt my knees, miles away, go slightly weak when she turned liquid emerald eyes toward my borrowed gaze.

Shock ruined my concentration as my vision returned to me in an instant. She finally showed. She stopped running. There was so much to be done. I burned power to climb stairs faster and search more efficiently. Folded paper talismans found their way into my pockets. My leather jacket flew up the stairs and onto my arms. I swapped my filthy gardening trainers for boots with my mind still racing. What had I forgotten? Anything?

All the while I kept the picture of that park bench fresh in my mind. My apprentice was my anchor. The chill of the night air was my fulcrum. I extended power back in her direction and slipped through the darkness as if down a flight of stairs, using the gravity of Ava's willing presence and putting one metaphorical foot forward. The spell catapulted me toward empty ground leagues away.

I blinked and watched a blonde waif with more tattoos than hair jump when I silently appeared on the opposite side of the bench from her.

The seated brunette calmly smoothed her skirt and licked her lips before turning her head in my direction. "About time." Her voice was velvet. Her smile was sharp and highly contagious.

#SapphicLineShare 10 Oct: Claws/ Nails

From a NaNo novel that might see the light one day. My MC's business partner gets a bit elemental when she's upset.
I forced my attention back to the brawl around me each time it wandered. Violent shivers began to subside even before I realized they were mine and not those of the world around me. I should have called for help but speech seemed too arduous with a floor so cold and inviting.

My partner passed, a snarl in slow motion. Her eyes were dark pits. Smoke trailed behind her. Crimson dripped from fingers that looked more like claws. Surely she would mop up the rest.

Then I remembered Anna hiding under the desk in the corner and tried to turn my head.

The problem with SF is that you'll write a story for fun, and then 8 years later, it's suddenly like, "oh, wait, that's applicable to today."
