voyager writers are so allergic to gay people they made a future where kes and tom are married and where HARRY KIM is their son in law and acted like that was a normal and natural development of these peoples relationships. yeah no totally i could see that happening sure. yeah they are so perfect together .

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine really does have everything you could ever want from an ensemble cast:
Man who is a single father and also really into baseball
Woman who is a war criminal
Man who is autism incarnate
Man who is a liquid
Man who loves his wife & child
Woman(???) who is a slug
Man who is a con artist with horrible dress sense
Man who is a plain, simple tailor (definitely not an enemy spy, whyever would you think that?)
And they're all deeply traumatized! Fun /j!

sorry I keep going on about Julian in this book (what do u expect from me he's my favourite character) but another really interesting point thats made multiple times through his POV is that he has to forcefully think of himself in his situation as Lieutenant Bashir and not Doctor Bashir because he is struggling HARD with how torn he is between his duties as a leader and his duties as a doctor
like. Julian has killed multiple Klingons in this novel. and they weren't pleasant deaths- these Klingons actively suffocated to death. he could've helped them, but couldnt, because he's had to keep going and try to re-take the station and save everybody. he's had to stand by and do nothing, literally watching Klingons he could try to save slowly suffocate to death. and thats where the internal conflict for him really comes in, and we see him struggling to keep going as a leader and a lieutenant, because at his core he's a doctor and he's violating his Hippocratic oath several times over, and there's nothing he can do about it

goofy and ill-advised star trek AU #3:
q is a dm with a Very Specific Vision and his husband jean-luc picard and his shitty friends keep getting distracted by q's npcs and doing sidequests instead.
---
q: cool, okay, so you fail your ability check and the Enterprise runs aground on this mysterious island.
picard: cool. anyway, tell me more about this ancient archaeological ruins you mentioned in a one-off comment
---
q (holding his head in his hands): please my bbeg is so cool i promise
picard: THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!

Random spoilerific reasons to read Star Trek novels, with little to no context:
Ro/Quark is a thing
A Jem'Hadar joins DS9, tries to fit in but eventually snaps and tries to kill everybody
You learn the origins and final fate of the Borg
A thinly-veiled Dr. House clone joins the Voyager crew
Geordi briefly has 2 girlfriends at once (due to different writers not co-ordinating enough, but still)
There's a TOS book that's a musical
There are YA stories about Jake and Nog making mischief on DS9
YA stories about Worf, Geordi, Picard, Beverly, Kirk, Spock and McCoy at SFA
YA series about the Kelvinverse gang (including Gaila!) as cadets, taking on a drug problem at SFA and a very unique Borg scout in San Francisco
We very briefly meet the people who are to Q what the Q are to humanity
Janeway/Chakotay is a thing
Kirk's first mission in command of the Enterprise! Erm, at least twice.
Kirk was married between TOS and TMP
Her name was Lori
In the future, you have yearly marriage contracts that you either update or you don't and I think that's amazing
Trip didn't die! He faked his death to join Section 31 and go undercover as a Romulan
It's not great, tbh
The ENT books get better after the Romulan wars though, it's proper founding of the Federation stuff
We meet Jack Crusher (erm, the OG) when 4 timelines start overlapping and he's a bit unhinged
Teenage Kirk stole a car and his choice was go to jail or join Starfleet
What happened when Voyager got home? Seven broke up with Chakotay like 30 pages in
Kirk gets cloned, and his clone becomes the sub of an evil invincible super genius and its all very gay
George Kirk was Robert April's first officer on the first ever mission of the unnamed starship with the Naval Construction Contract 1701
Robert is a hard-core pacifist and has to turn command over to George whenever it's time to fire weapons
Data becomes fully human for a couple of days and it's really sweet
They never say "wristwatch" or "phone", it's always "wrist chrono" or "personal comm"
There are gays but they don't say that word because it's the 1990's and Rick Berman runs the franchise
Spock has a son in the past with Zarabeth
Everyone in the post-Nemesis era does spy missions all the time non stop, as if Starfleet has abandoned exploring the cosmos for doing Space Mission: Impossible
Bashir does it better than anyone else, he takes on Section 31 from the inside
Remember Control? It's from the novels, except the novels do it SO MUCH BETTER.
Remember how we never found out who Future Guy was? We do.
It's very underwhelming, nobody we know
We find out how the Romulans and Vulcans split
Surak was a Vulcan internet blogger
A Borg Cube eats Pluto
Janeway dies
Janeway gets better
At least one TOS book features a wizard
There's a Star Trek TOS/Here Come the Brides crossover novel
It had cameos from The Doctor (as in, Who), Han Solo, Starbuck and others
Whole book series about Section 31
Whole book series about the Department of Temporal Investigations
One time they do the Bill and Ted thing to escape confinement and it works
Wanna know how Riker and Troi met?
Wanna know what Picard got up to on the Stargazer?
Andorians have 4 sexes and it's very complicated
Data comes back from the dead as Data 2.0, and it was fresh and exciting because it happened long before ST: Picard did it twice.
Lal comes back too and we get father/daughter android stuff! They have a home and everything but keep having to save the universe
One time Mirror Seven is led around on a leash naked on Terok Nor
Geordi becomes captain of the USS Challenger, decides it's not for him because plot, and goes back to engineering on the Enterprise
Kirk is shot on the bridge and dies
Kirk gets better
They watch 3D holos of old Doctor Who episodes in the Enterprise rec room
The Enterprise also has an AI named Moira, which was Zora long before Zora
The TOS crew get together for one last mission. About three times.
There's a Perry Mason book except it's about Kirk's lawyer from that TOS episode
Data 2.0 owns and runs a massive gambling empire on Orion
Spock keeps randomly showing up everywhere in the TNG era
Scotty keeps randomly showing up everywhere in the TNG era
Bones keeps randomly showing up everywhere in the TNG era
You're on Tumblr so you already know about Killing Time
There's a guy named McKenzie Calhoun and he's a total badass and captains a ship of weirdos and misfits
Kirk comes back from the dead, saves the galaxy repeatedly, has an intersex child (who identifies as male) with a Romulan/Klingon hybrid
Kirk beats up Worf
Kirk's child has superpowers
Kirk's child saves the galaxy at age 6
The Kirk stuff is 100% ignored in the other novels
About 50% of the novels are ignored in the other 50%, and the ones that are meant to be in direct continuity with each other aren't always quite
Just like the TV shows and movies, then
Lwaxana Troi meets Q, and it goes as well as you'd expect
Someone tells Data, yes you idiot you had emotions all along and he's like, oh shit you're right
McCoy is left in command of the Enterprise as a joke by Kirk, who is then immediately kidnapped
Ro Laren is captain of Deep Space Nine
Picard/Beverly is a thing, they get married and have a child named Rene. No running away and raising your kid in secret here
Riker and Troi are married, serve on the Titan together with a bunch of adorable weirdos and have a daughter named Tasha
You get to watch all the 24th century characters die horribly in the end along with their entire universe. Holy fuck it's a bleak horror show. Personally, I love it. But if that's not your cup of tea I'd skip the Coda trilogy

I fully don't understand the Picard dudebro situation.
I was a full on season 1 and 2 apologist. While they had *many* flaws I found bright spots in them. I liked Picard's place as a mentor figure but not quite a father. Queerness. Some of Jurati's autism coded experiences. ELNOR my LOVE. The campiness of sexy Romulan spies. Borg persecution and Ex-Borg life.
But Season 3, plot wise, is objectively the worst. Some fun nostalgia moments? 100%. Shaw's devastation with the Borg? Understandable and moving. Worf x Deanna x Riker energy? Top-tier. Geordi seeing Data again? Melt me.
HOWEVER
Shaw's soft-core racism to Seven? Out of pocket. Killing Shelby and Ro to further the plot? YIKES. Sidelining and practically deleting Raffi and Seven's relationship? C'mon. Dropping Picard's other father-like role characters in favor of Jack? Lame. Jack's "Borg genes"? i get its sciencey wiencey but Borg reproduce by assimilation that's absurd and makes no sense and 100% relies on a very aged bachelor who hates kids accidentally impregnating someone. Terrible plan. Fast-tracking Jack through Starfleet so he could be a cadet on a new Seven ship? Nepo-baby bullshit. And where's Laris? Who fucking knows.
I get the nostalgia. I am a hardcore Worf simp, I melted at his mere existence on screen again. But c'mon. The dudebros saying this was the best season were delusional.
All the seasons had some ridiculous, absurd bullshit. You just give this one a pass because its the cis white guy chosen one hero bullshit you like.
Anyway. If anything I just hope Jeri Ryan gets the spin off series she fucking deserves. I can accept the third season being unecessary lauded as the "best" one for that reason alone.

HOW THEY APOLOGIZE
Tumblr media
arguments and ways the tng crew apologize for it
CW: gn!reader
CREW: jean-luc picard, will riker, beverly crusher, data, geordi la forge, deanna troi, worf
Tumblr media
JEAN-LUC - stubborn as a bull and somehow always right, having an argument with jean-luc is like navigating the ocean in a canoe. he knows he’s not the best at expressing his feelings, more likely to shrug off personal matters and hope they resolve themselves than be seen as too vulnerable. and that’s really what pushes you away the most, and how he knows to apologize. for jean-luc, an apology is only good if you really mean it, and so he takes a day or so to think over the argument, its causes, and how he felt afterwards. and only when he’s considered all angles does he approach you. he’s so honest and genuine and remorseful in his words, it’s almost hard to stay mad at him. but jean-luc manages to say all the right things, along with the most important ones - that he loves you, cares about you, and never again wants to push you away. and he’s a man of his word, jean-luc does make an effort to be more open in order to prevent more fighting. of course, he can still be set in his ways, and you may need to remind him of his promise now and again. but rest assured that your feelings will never be ignored and always valued.
WILL - this man tends to say what’s on his mind, as well as let his temper boil to the surface more than he’d like, so this usually culminates in will saying something hurtful that he really doesn’t mean. it’s never anything that goes too far - he just isn’t the kind of person to hit low. but it’s the way he says things that usually hurt more than the words themselves, and he knows this. he’s usually able to stuff it down when it involves his work, but someone he’s intimate with? someone he’s vulnerable around and knows him better than most? well, let’s say that will instantly knows when he’s messed up and he goes the extra ten miles to make it up to you. a benefit to you knowing him so well is that he knows you, too. your favorite food, holodeck program, music, weather, even the shirt you love seeing him in. he does these grand gestures not to butter you up (though, that is a factor), but so he can prove how much he cares about you. he’ll apologize profusely, telling you he crossed a line and it wouldn’t happen again. and if his promise isn’t enough, then…well, he does look really good in that shirt and the food is exactly how you like it. you might as well keep will around for a while.
BEVERLY - she wouldn’t want to keep an argument unresolved for too long. it’s the doctor in her - beverly can’t just let something go without healing the thing that damaged it at the core. she’s usually good about being objective and keeping a lid on her emotions, but they do spill over sometimes. when they do, beverly has definitely got a mouth and an attitude on her and you’ll have trouble keeping up when she’s so easily able to fling hurtful words. and she always feels guilty once she’s cooled off - beverly might be worried about approaching you afterward. she’ll ask your friends how you’re doing, if you’re still angry, if she even has a chance at making things right. and when she finally approaches you, she tries to keep it light. smiling softly, telling small jokes, showing you a lot of affection before just coming out and apologizing. beverly does nothing with half-measures - she knows what she said and did was wrong. she’s lost a lot in her life, and she couldn’t bear to lose you, too. so her apology is genuine, kinda sad, and when you hug her afterwards, beverly simply melts into your arms - now knowing how close she was to losing you.
DATA - of course, he hadn’t meant to hurt your feelings. data still very often struggles with the complexity of emotions and is constantly surprised at how easy it is to say, or even imply, the wrong thing. of course, he isn’t very equipped to handle you after a long, hard, emotional day - all it takes is a few poorly-chosen words and you’re crying, huffing at him, leaving his quarters with barely a word and leaving data to ponder over what he said. he goes to geordi the next day, only to learn that yes, he did say the exact opposite thing he should’ve said. there’s no taking it back, data knows that - so he tries his best to rectify the situation. he’s learned all the things that make you happy, whether its a hot bath, a delicious treat, or a type of music. data really pulls out all the stops because he knows, generally, that a bunch of favorable things often cancels out negative emotions. though, your reaction to everything doesn’t clear anything up for data - you’re laughing, smiling at him instead of everything he prepared for you. data tries to apologize and tell you he had no intention of hurting you. but after learning that it was simply a very bad day, he has a new tactic whenever you’re feeling bad again - instead of talking, just replicate something sweet and let you take the lead. 
GEORDI - for as much as data seems to rely on geordi for emotional advice, he does tend to be a little oblivious when he hurts your feelings. it’s never a conscious dismissal, though. when it comes to personal issues, i think geordi tends to get caught up in things that aren’t very important and fails to look at the big picture. this side of him works wonders for an engineer thinking outside the box, but not so much in a relationship. of course, once the problem finally hits him like a brick, he would feel super bad about not noticing sooner. and you’ll learn that geordi is really good at making up for his mistakes - he owns up to them, never ignoring them, always trying to fix what he broke. sometimes, he isn’t too great with his words - he might stumble and his apology would come out wrong. but geordi is deeply empathetic and he’d do just about anything to make it up to you. from then on, his hugs are just a little tighter, his words a little sweeter, his kisses a little longer. geordi learns from his mistakes, and while he can still be a little oblivious from time to time, all it takes is a soft mumble of his name and he’ll come around.
DEANNA - it’s not often when deanna is in a position of needing to apologize. obviously, her empathic abilities, wisdom, and patience keep her from crossing any sort of line or doing something that hurts you. but when it happens, i can’t imagine deanna would give any half-ass apology or shrug off the incident. at first, she might back off and give you space - let things cool down because she knows how volatile an argument can get and she doesn’t want either of you saying anything you’d regret. deanna is a very understanding and empathetic woman, it isn’t hard for her to put herself in your shoes and feel bad for how she handled the situation. after the cooldown period, she talks with you - really talks and discusses your feelings and it kinda makes her feel even worse about the argument but she does learn a lot. and i think after that, she’ll be very inclined to offer physical comfort. a nice, long hug, kissing your cheeks in this loving and playful way. reestablishing that connection and helping soothe any lasting wounds. also, it just makes her feel a lot better being able to just hold you and give lots of love.
WORF - i don’t have to tell you that getting into an argument with a Klingon is an uphill battle straight from the start. granted, worf isn’t usually as aggressive, but he’s still got that hot temper his species are known for and once an argument starts, it won’t stop until he’s shouting and you’re leaving the room. Klingon fights are usually resolved by throwing things or fighting, but that’s not exactly how humans typically deal with their negative emotions. it’s definitely a challenge for worf to push his temper aside long enough to be told how much he messed up - he needs his flaws to be put into perspective by someone he trusts and that’s usually when he feels bad and starts thinking of ways to apologize. to worf’s credit, he’s better with his words than he thinks. what he believes to be a silly and foolish-sounding apology really comes across as genuine and regretful - which it is, of course. worf’s got a bigger heart than he lets on and the thought of having hurt you during a stupid argument doesn’t sit well with him. he actively tries to atone through simple acts, like bringing you tea or making you laugh.

ROMULAN ATTACK
The Enterprise shook violently under the merciless volley of photon torpedo fire from the looming Romulan warbird...
Picard *clutching his chair*: Mr. LaForge, I need you to give me everything you have!!!
LaForge: I'm trying, Captain! The shield power cupplings are failing!!! Switching to manual overdrive!!
Riker: Geordi, we've got about thirty seconds to get out of here!!
LaForge: I'm working on it!!!
The ship spins, violently shaking the Bridge crew.
Data: Captain, the port nacelle is beginning to rupture!
Worf: Captain, second Romulan warbird decloaking off the starboard bow!
A second warbird shimmers into view, prepared for battle...
Picard: Mr. LaForge--!
*A flash of light appeared next to Picard, and suddenly Q was there--draped over Picard!*
Picard: What the hell--!
Q: Oh, dear. Jean-Luc, you look absolutely rattled and disturbed.
*The entity nuzzles his face into the crook of Picard's neck.*
Riker: *leaping to his feet*: Get outta here, Q!
Q: And miss the spectacular ending of the Enterprise and her feisty crew? Where else in the Universe can I get such quality, exciting entertainment?
Picard: Q, I swear--
Q: You love me? *smiles*
Data: Ten seconds until a warp core breach, Captain.
Q: Do you need a helping hand, Picard? *He whispers into Picard's ear*
Picard: You know I do.
Q: My pleasssurrre.
Q snaps his fingers, and in a huge, white FLASH, the Enterprise appears in another sector of the galaxy, light years safely away from the scene of the Romulan ambush.
The Enterprise has been restored by Q, with barely a scratch, and the Bridge is quiet.
Until, Q pulls Picard closer to him in a tight embrace.
Riker: What do you think you're doing?
Picard: Q, get off of me! * He wriggles under Q's body.*
Q: But, Jean-Luc, I was so scared from that brutal Romulan attack. I need comforting!
Picard:
Q: Hold me, mon capitaine!
Picard: Will you kindly detach yourself from me, and leave us, Q?
Q: *breaks his embrace to look at Picard's annoyed face*: And this is the thanks I get for saving your life?
Picard sighs loudly.
Picard: Thank you, Q for...intervening. If you don't mind...* tries to push Q off him to stand up*
Q: Oh, just a few more minutes, Picard. I mean, it was stressful.
Riker rolls his eyes...
Picard: Oh, please.
Q: I'm serious, Picard. I almost lost you.
Riker: Mr. Worf!
Worf stiffens.
Q: *sneers* Oh, spare me, Microbrain.
Picard sighs and closes his eyes.
Picard: I appreciate what you have done, Q. But, now that the danger is over, will you just leave?
Q: *blinks increduosly * It was a traumatic experience for me too, Jean-Luc. We both need to recover. Hold me.
The entity pulls Picard against his body in a tight embrace.
Riker: *laughs* Bullshit. *shakes his head and rolls his eyes*
Data: I am afraid I do not understand. What is happening here?
