#rom x leeta

[1trilliongrams]

Baffled by those criticizing Star Trek Lower Decks 4.06 saying Rom was too dumb and Leeta was corrupted.

Did they... watch the episode?

It needs saying AGAIN: it was a classic dumb cop/reasonable cop routine. They are putting on an act. Rom only plays dumb. Leeta doesn't care about the latinum. They need to know the Federation will respect their culture.

They both personally witnessed and experienced colonialism, and they must ensure it won't happen to Ferenginar.

Kira wasn't the only one rankled by Starfleet presence on Terok Nor/DS9, though it turned out advantageous in the war. Leeta very likely harbors caution from the seeming takeover of DS9 by the Federation and the trauma of Cardassian. Occupation.

Personally, I don’t think Trek has ever been good at romance. Like there are almost no major (OFFICIAL) romantic relationships that I am genuinely invested in and when I compare that to nearly every other franchise I’m interested in it’s a huge outlier. Like literally listing out every official couple I think the only ones I have genuine real fondness for are Rom and Leeta. Besides that I think basically every single other Trek pairing (from the older shows and the newer ones) range from “boring, okay” to “much better as friends” to “this pairing actively makes no sense/was super shoe-horned together” etc.

modern trek's decampification of the ferengi is the worst thing to ever happen to us

Bar Association - Rom x Leeta

[marti-lizzard]

Here's a lil drawing of Rom and Leeta being adorable.

[attiredpan]

POV: Amy and Nog have a kid

CMO: the kid’s probably gonna be just like you two

Amy, visibly overjoyed: they’re gonna be just like us!

Nog, visibly horrified: they’re gonna be just like us…

Amy, in dawning horror: they’re gonna be just like us…

CMO: I meant genetically, but okay, freak out then.

Nog: Hey, just a heads up we’re gonna need to baby proof the ship.

Chief Engineer: The whole ship?

Nog: The Whole Fucking Ship, I’m Serious™️.

Amy, on a call with her father: So yeah, that’s what’s going on.

Taggert:*Is sobbing on the couch from joy*

Maevok, worried about Taggert: We’re so happy for you two, and remember to take care of yourself for the term, all right?

Amy: No problemo

*Meanwhile*

Quark: YOU WHAT?$!

Ishka: Quark shut up!

Rom:*Is also crying tears of joy*

Leeta: Make sure to take care of yourselves! I need to go-

Nog: No issue.

Quark:*Is still flipping his lid while Ishka reigns him in*

Nog: That on the other hand is

Amy:*Is already stressed cause she’s shoving a whole ass new person out of her*

2/3 the men in room:*Are having caffeine overdoses and freaking the fuck out*

Amy:*Worry And Concern™️ in addition to the Stress Of Birthing™️*

CMO, also stressed as shit: Can all of you Fucking Not™️?!

*cue Amy and Nog both crying their eyes out when they hold the kid for the first time*

Also random HC’s

•Sea food cravings. For both of them.

•Nog tries to get the baby to sleep when she’s crying, Amy comes in to help when it doesn’t seem to be working and scares the ever blessed exchequer out of him. Like I’m talking the most gut wrenching scream of blood curdling terror sort of reaction.

•Dealing with their Douchey Relatives Bull Shit because that is just a given.

•Local Ensign, Leeta, and Taggert host a baby shower that’s just as chaotic as one would think.

•Quark Freaking Out. As always.

•Ishka being the best Grandmoogie ever with all of the advice.

•Amy and Nog being stressed because “what if we’re not good parents?” while everyone assures them that from what they’ve seen, these two would be the BEST parents ever

•And then cue them being the best parents ever

•Parent nicknames include Tulip from Amy and Pumpkin from Nog.

•Quark has been designated Grunkle Quark by the child / Quark being a surprisingly competent figure in the child’s life, no matter how much he denies it

deep space 9!

ok here we go:

blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most)

it used to be odo but now by far sisko, mainly because the benny russell plotline is my absolute favorite star trek plot ever. is he sisko or benny.... if he ascended to the prophets or whatever did he create benny?? if benny russell was a real author in strange new worlds... what does that mean. "you are the dreamer and the dream" is rotating in my microwave brain constantly. odo is still my emo repressed babygirl though.

scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped)

if couples count, worf and jadzia. yes they can and have gotten away with murder yes i still want to put them in a little jar on my desk. they're legitimately one of the best written tv couples ever. worf is the wife and jadzia is the husband though

scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave)

damar, im not saying hes a good person or anything but his arc was so interesting to me and he did have his very good moments at the end

glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week)

rom and leeta. roms development was also SO good and leeta is the cutest side character ever i love her. like star trek does not get better than wimpy alien man finding his passion for engineering and falling in love with his hooters waitress wife who helps him form a union. that was peak cinema

poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave)

i cant think of a character that's necessarily unpopular... maybe lwaxana?? i know she was like a minor villain in tng but i loved her in that ep where she hung out with alexander, and her friendship with odo later on in the show was actually super cute to me. she is a queen idc what tng says. headcanon she's still like alexanders cool aunt and worf is very tired.

also near the end... kai winn?? i do not like her or think she was a good person at all but i did feel bad for her for maybe two seconds near the end. i dont know she spent her life wanting to talk to god only for some alien guy to become emissary so while shes evil and i hate her i kinda have pity for her so shes my meow meow idk

horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason)

dukat for sure. i would drop dukat in hot soup. definitely the best written star trek villain though and marc alaimo is such a good actor, every time i watch a dukat ep im like how does alaimo act so well that i genuinely hate this man with a passion

eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell)

kai winn. i know i just said shes my meow meow but i hate her i hate her. same thing with marc alaimo though, louise fletcher was such a good actor that for 45 minutes i hated her like she was real dude

[loopnoid]

more ds9 nonsense. my beloveds

[stopthatbluecat]

Okay, so Rom and Leeta ABSOLUTELY have a threesome with that big dude at Jadzia's bachelorette

[startrekpride]

Lesbian Leeta/Rom icons for anon!

Once saw a post about the Ferengi characters of DS9 wearing dresses once… So anyway, Rom and Leeta have matching couples dresses.
