More passive-aggressive beta seeking

[circ_bamboo]

boosette and I turned in the polybigbang last night with something like 14K words, and we're . . . not done. Definitely not done. I'd expect probably another 5-6K to be added just of story, and then a good deal of tweaking.

But at some point in the next month or so we're going to need someone to beat it into submission be a beta-reader. It's, if you haven't been following our Epic Comment Threads of Doom, the OT3, boosette-and-circ_bamboo-style (Number One/Pike/Kirk), the formation thereof, from the shared universe.

Also there's porn! (Of course there's porn. It's me.)

Anyway. Now I've got the Uhura is Awesome festival fic to write. At least I've got the scenario! It should go pretty quickly, now.

ETA: Success!

PICK ME PICK ME PICK M---

Oh wait, that's right, you can't pick me because I'm responsible for half of this mess going in. :P

I'm hoping it'll be less of a mess by the time we hand it off to the (mythical) beta. :)

Also, *snickers*

I'm staring at bits and going "what the hell was I thinking???" and, er, yeah.

I'm having a fit of "oh god what have we gotten into kdsjhfalsdkfj EEE."

IT WILL BE AWESOME WHEN IT IS DONE.

I have decreed it.

(Also, someone drawing us OT3 pictures! Hopefully!)

Basically sums up how I feel.

On the basis that you two clearly need saving from yourselves :) I'll beta if you want.
I'm not much use on TOS canon or American idioms but I'm fine with spelling, grammar and plot structure.

YAY BETA! I think we're good on American idioms and TOS canon (which pretty much won't be used). It'll mostly be plot structure.

I should warn you that there is het involved?

*g* I did check some of the other fics in the universe before offering. As long as the women are BAMF I'm perfectly happy with het. And your One looks like my type! My email is zauzat @ gmail.com
