PROPAGANDA:

[Julian]

"he is EXTREMELY submissive and breedable."

[Odysseus]

"Look this is less about needing Odysseus to be pregnant (though I'm not disregarding the idea 👀) and more about believing that Penelope of Sparta is the og "if any woman could knock up her husband, it's her" type of woman and Odysseus would be 10000% down for it just because it's Penelope asking. Like yeah Epic the Musical is newly finished, but the tale of Odysseus simping for his wife and costing people their lives along the way back to her is over 2000 years old. (And I mean, they had mpreg stories back then, but it was like, Athena bursting out of Zeus' forehead 🤷)."

aos they can never make me hate you he is the most INCREDIBLE character.

lowkey feeling debilitatingly ill over aos kirk. he quite literally can never escape his father’s impromptu captaincy on the uss kelvin. so many of his actions are defined (whether he accepts it or not) by surviving a sacrifice he doesn’t even remember. how does he carry that guilt? jim’s always the first to volunteer for dangerous reconnaissance missions, breakneck retrievals into enemy territory, and targetable distractions, despite his status as captain. does he feel like he has to live up to george’s willingness to make the sacrifice play? or does he feel like he needs to posthumously earn his right to have lived?

and how did jim feel entering combat as captain of the enterprise for the first time, knowing that a constitution class vessel like his silver lady would absolutely be able to hold her own, but what if? or when he was finally outnumbered by krall, having to order the mass evacuation of his crew. was there relief at the core of his fear, that he’d finally made his father’s sacrifice worth it by giving his own life for his crew in turn? or deep down, did he feel ashamed that his father gave everything for him and his mother to live, only for him to go and die at 30? don’t even get me started on how he must have felt post-khan resurrection there’s too much to contemplate.

The failed marriage ever. <3

[ID: Drawing of Spock and T’Pring from Star Trek the original series. Spock’s thought bubble reads: « Not being attracted to my betrothed is completely logical as Vulcans do not experience attraction or sexual desire. I am such a good disciple of Surak ». T’Pring’s thought bubble reads: « I need to fuck Stonn ». /end ID]

As I am currently reading the novelisation of the 2009 Star Trek, I've decided to note down some of my favourite parts / interesting bits / funny moments.

George Kirk actually realises that Ayel is a Romulan before Captain Robau even leaves the Kelvin

They actually say that Jim has brown eyes, despite the fact that in the films he Very Definitely Doesn't

Amanda tells Sarek (metaphorically) where to stick it and its hilarious

When Sarek tells Spock he is to choose his own destiny, Spock goes (internally), "but im eleven"

Jim teases cupcake in the bar scene further by asking if he's into him and then asking if they beam those uniforms right onto them because "they're so form fitting"

Jim speaks Orion Prime

He also considers Pike to be his mentor, explicitly rather than the implied route the movies took

Jim calls Spock "Commander Spork" by mistake during his trial

Jim also genuinely has a breakdown in the trial at the idea of being kicked out of Starfleet, and then proceeds to have another when he hears he's on Academic Probation.

Here, Chekov doesn't run down to the transporter room to catch Sulu and Jim. Instead him and Uhura work together on the bridge to catch them in time

Amanda Grayson's last words are "It's okay, to be scared"

Spock estimates that no more than 10,000 vulcans survive the planets destruction

Kirk helps in medical central, and Spock notices him taking care of a young vulcan girl

Doctor McCoy says "Damn it man I'm a doctor, not a physicist" which is nice, since it doesn't happen as often in the AOS films vs TOS

Spock makes a point that despite him and Jim both losing a parent to Nero, they cannot have a personal vendetta against him for the sake of the crew

Jim brings up Spock being emotionally compromised before meeting Spock-Prime, citing the regulations. Spock sees this as an attempt at mutiny and - recognising that Jim will just escape if he is put in the brig - lobs him off the ship like he does in the film

The bug(?) Nero implants in Pike is not intended to torture him, but instead works as a truth serum in some thinly veiled way. Nero actually gives Pike anaesthesia to prevent him being in pain while the bug makes its way to his spinal cord, so torture is definitively not his goal

Keenser talks, and has actual lines (though not many)

As Nero and his crew wonder at the amount of water on Earth, one of the romulan crew ask why it is called Earth and not Water

Ayel actually asks Nero, on behalf of the crew, to stop before they attack Earth and go home to Romulous. Nero murders him in response.

the in-universe reason why Pike has a head of grey hair is the trauma from the events

Kirk gets a commendation for original thinking

Kirk has to actively try not to laugh when Spock submits his application for First Officer in the middle of the bridge

The book closes with Admiral Archer's beagle being beamed onto the ship

[kirkjamest]

STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE (2001 to 2005) - Behind the Scenes

[kirkjamest]

Actually took me out seeing ENT on this tournament omh. Was not expecting it at freaking all

Ultimate Polyship Tournament:Round 132|Side A

Propaganda under the cut:

Tri'Polshivis

This is mostly self-indulgent, but I love these four in a polycule. Trip & T'Pol are married, as are T'Pol & Hoshi and Hoshi & Travis and Travis & Trip. My main ethos for this polycule is just Why Choose? Trip and T'Pol are adorable together and are conceptually so good (especially as a symbol of their respective peoples moving past xenophobia and coming together toward a brighter future), T'Pol and Hoshi semi-canonically kiss in the show already, Hoshi and Travis are both ensigns with troubled family relationships who are very competent for their ages but one is completely out of her element and the other is living his dream, and Travis and Trip I think would just be a very fun dynamic with a lot of nerdy mechanics talk.

Joly/Bossuet/Musichetta

"Laigle de Meaux, as the reader knows, lived more with Joly than elsewhere. He had a lodging, as a bird has one on a branch. The two friends lived together, ate together, slept together. They had everything in common, even Musichetta, to some extent." This is what canon had to say, and the brick was written in the 19th century. If that is not a policule I don't know what is. This ship is so strong in the fandom that you almost never see any of them shipped with any other characters.
