Rewatching ds9 and I love how they'll refer to aliens that exist on the station that are far, far weirder than anything their budget could ever show.
My idea of Amanda Grayson is this double nature because she needs to be in a certain way to enjoy life on Vulcan but she also becomes much more fun as a character if you imagine her as being very human in certain aspects of her life and personality. Having that garden full of gnomes, occasionally calling Sarek “babe” and wearing party hats etc.
What I’m saying is: She made finger guns at Spock all the time while he grew up and he always viewed it as a strange and embarrassing yet seemingly necessary part of human culture. Which caused some initial confusion the first time he visited Earth.
Love when a DS9 episode is too serious and dramatic to have Quark in it but they're contractually obligated to pay him for the episode so Quark and Odo have one scene where they do a little vaudeville skit about the A plot. We interrupt this allegory for the Nuremburg trials to bring you Statler and Waldorf in space.
Yeah, I like star trek! That's the one with Spirk, Kock, boney boy, Nichelle Nichols, Scotland, various women, Oh My, and Russia incarnate, right?
No? Do you mean the one with french Shakespeare, Mr bi, Data, Ms bi, Dr milf, her son, and Worf?
Still no??? Hmm, what about, Cpt Jesus, repressed lesbian, a literal worm, Worf, Dr twink, Traumatized, Cop, Capitalist, and Morn?
star trek edits be upon ye. i wanted a seven of nine wallpaper and couldnt find one to my tastes and then things got out of hand
no six sentence sunday from me today
had a bad stomach-flu like reaction to some new medication I was taking and am currently watching DS9 while in a brain fog and having feelings about how Lwaxana Troi uses romantic overtures to avoid true intimacy or vulnerability with others and how Kira is such an amazing character whose growth over even just season one is impressive to watch. And remembering how much I enjoy hating Dukat. Honestly he's such a delightful villain because he does have layers and most of them are more arrogance and genocidal condescension.
Seriously, though. Lwaxana clearly uses romantic overtures to build walls around her. We see her do it with Picard, whom she genuinely likes but cannot connect with because she probably doesn't even realize that she's subconsciously protecting herself from suffering more losses by shoving people away. But when she, quite literally, lets her hair down with Odo - whom she initially behaves towards similarly to how she does with Picard - her choice to allow herself to be vulnerable with him in order to help him be more comfortable being vulnerable around her, something he isn't getting a choice in due to their unforeseen circumstances, is actually quite lovely. I know a lot of people don't like Lwaxana or her friendship with Odo but... I actually really adore it.
