âThe Sisters shine their starlight on you,â she whispers in his ear, âon the dark places in your soul, that you may look without fear. Such is my prayer, I seal it with touch.â She pulls back slowly and plants a soft kiss on his forehead.

My second bookbinding project is So Wise We Grow by Deastar, who very kindly allowed me to bind this fic even though someone else has already done a wonderful job at it.Â
https://archiveofourown.org/works/55410/chapters/73479
I made completely different mistakes this time, which is good while learning a new hobby! I hit a bit of a snag right away - did you know the average black ink cartridge only prints about 200 pages? Because I did not. And then I somehow broke the printer trying to change the ink cartridge (I could swear I had successfully done it in the past, but alas, I am not a tech person), so the reverse side of the pages ended up being printed by a different printer, with slightly different margins, etc. You can see the difference in the picture below. I donât think it would bother me while reading it, and I decided I wasnât enough of a perfectionist to reprint it.Â
I think the actual binding went pretty well! The spine is straight, I learned from my last project that I need to be careful how I put it in the press.Â
I was able to use my cricut so much for this project! I bound the cover in cloth, so I was able to use iron on vinyl for the front and back. I did have to do it over again because I overheated the back the first time, and the planet dissolved away. The second time I had some trouble with the vinyl coming partially away from the fabric (alas, I need more practice), but I was out of fabric and vinyl so I decided to sacrifice the words being even for the picture being clear and went with the second attempt.Â
I also used my cricut to do the poem that the title is from in foil on the inside page. I think it looks pretty good! The poem is absolutely perfect for this fic.Â
Overall, a good learning experience! I adore this fic, I really enjoyed typesetting it. I donât have a picture of it, but I found a little planet doodle to use as the section break and I think it looks very cute.Â
Iâm planning to take a short break from fanfic binding to make myself a planner for college in the fall (yes, Iâm going back AGAIN), but I hope to get back to it after! Any thoughts on what I should bind next? Iâm on a bit of a Steve/Bucky kick lately, or maybe an All For The Game fic.Â

Fanfic Rec #63 James T. Kirk/Spock (Star Trek) part 4
So Wise We Grow by Deastar
"Commander Spock, we have located your son," the Vulcan lady on the screen says, which would be great, except Jim can tell by the look on Spock's face that he's never heard of this kid before in his life. "If it is expedient, the child will be sent to join you on the Enterprise within the week."
Entering Orbit by museaway
Jim escapes to Iowa to avoid the media frenzy following the Narada incident, but a late-night miscommunication results in Spock turning up on his front porch.
The Door by Pouxin
Spock and Jim both have their doors. Â Jim wants his to be open. Â Spock wants his to be closed.
An alternative STID thing. Â With more literature. Â And esoteric faffing. And sex.
Objective Data by walkandatalk
A young Vulcan decides to find a mate for his guardian, Spock. Â After careful calculations, Cadet Kirk is obviously the superior choice.

Love Story by waldorph
You were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles and my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet" and I was crying on a staircase, begging you, "Please don't go."

Summary: Lan Zhan turns to Wei Ying, seated in one of the library study rooms with the rest of their project group, and murmurs, brow furrowed, âWei Ying, your scentâŚâ and Wei Ying inhales and smellsâŚ
âOhfuck,â Wei Ying whispers. She flees.
She spends the bus ride home telling herself that maybe Lan Zhan didnât notice! Or maybe she noticed Wei Yingâs scent had gotten weird, but didnât know what it was! Or maybe Lan Zhan will⌠hit her head or something and get amnesiaâno, thatâs a terrible thing to hope for, and sheâd probably forget all about Wei Ying anyway, if that happened, which would be worse. Probably.
Or maybe not. Maybe nothing is worse than going into heat around someone youâve only been dating for a month, like a total fucking weirdo.
Kay's comments: So much embarrassment in this fic, but it's all good, because it's cute embarrassment, just Wei Ying liking her new girlfriend Lan Zhan sooo much. Made me giggle and kick my feet delighted.
Excerpt: âWei Ying?â
Wei Ying calls through the door, âLook, can we please just pretend this isnât happening? Please?â
Thereâs a beat of silence, and then Lan Zhan says, âI do not think I can, no. Wei Ying, are you all right?â
âOh god, are you worried about me?â Wei Yingâs eyes are stinging. Itâs so unfair of Lan Zhan to be so good and sweet when sheâs definitely about to break up with Wei Ying.
âYou seemed very upset,â Lan Zhan says, in her low and musical voice. Wei Ying can picture the little crease that must be between her eyebrows right now â she can picture every perfect inch of Lan Zhan, from her guqin-callused fingertips to her three helix studs: diamond, aquamarine, sapphire, in a neat little row, because Lan Zhan is the sparkliest butch Wei Ying has ever met. Wei Ying loves that about her. Fuck.
