It's kinda weird how Tumblr isn't really doing anything with Alfred Klestil (Bosun), delirious and dying from a torn arm, asking to see what happened to "his Frenchman," bosun's mate Charles Miner, after the encounter with the Kraken.

Like, that's some prime material over there come on.

THE DEAD MINER /1867/ by CHARLES CHRISTIAN NAHL.

The painting illustrates the danger frequently linked with life and work on the frontier. The miner is depicted lying on the ground in a lifeless state, holding a portrait of his sweetheart with a romanticized touch. His faithful dog grieves next to him.

This is a romanticized view of death in the 19th century, especially during the California Gold Rush. This style of painting focuses on the sacrifice of the miner, depicting him as a martyr for progress. It conforms to contemporary values that glorify noble suffering and the tragic beauty of death. This era frequently portrayed death in a peaceful and dignified manner, often idealizing it.

When Nahl made this piece, he was fully involved in depicting the mining culture of California, which had transitioned from the initial gold rush frenzy to a more contemplative era. At this point, the excitement of the gold rush had diminished, and Nahl started portraying the miners' challenges and sacrifices. His time working as a miner and artist in California shaped his artistic concentration on subjects of loss and loyalty.

The painting's examination of death and suffering indirectly connects to tuberculosis, reflecting the 19th-century epidemic. In this era, tuberculosis, also known as "consumption," was idealized in art as a sickness that impacted the young and creative individuals, frequently portrayed in a manner that highlighted grace and beauty in passing.

This has been an idea I had for awhile which was drawing the characters who are the most cat coded from Blue Lock in the style of Neco Arc. Bachira and Charles were the most obvious since Bachira was born on International Cat Day while Charles was born on Japan's National Cat Day. Though Chigiri I had to include because of the panther motifs.

you know what? might as well, have a prompt 😏

G-rated, Trip x T'Pol if you squint, would probably fit somewhere in s2

“Therefore, it would be ill-advised to use the shuttle in the proximity of the ryetalyn source, as the geological composition of the hills surrounding it would cause damage to the pod's sensors,” T'Pol concluded her research report in the senior staff's briefing. She looked away from the monitor showcasing the map of the area.

Captain Archer nodded his understanding. “So what's the safe distance from the deposits for us to land?”

“Approximately 20 kilometers.”

Commander Tucker grimaced slightly. “Quite a walk.”

T'Pol calmly angled her head toward him, giving him a glance before she turned her attention back to the presented map. “A walk, as Commander Tucker had put it, is also out of the question. If not for the inefficiency of this type of travel, the terrain is quite steep and if we can mine the mineral, carrying the required amount back to the shuttle would prove to be additionally inconvenient.”

Trip rolled his eyes across the table. Of course he didn't mean to do half a marathon on each side just to go get the rocks.

“What do you suggest then?” It was Lieutenant Reed who voiced the question, his arms neatly folded behind his back.

T'Pol raised her eyebrow slightly to make a point, moving her gaze across the faces of her fellow crewmen as she spoke, finally setting her eyes on the Chief Engineer. “It would appear that the best solution is to obtain a vehicle, either of a hover construction or wheeled and arrive at the location by this means of transport.”

Suddenly, Commander's face was no longer holding any signs of annoyance – his lips were curled and there was a twinkle in his gaze. “D'ya want me to build ya a car?”

“Not a car specifically, however a vehicle of a similar build, yes.”

“And ya want it done in eight hours we have left to get there?” His inquiry was laced with what she learned to recognize as a type of doubt that carried an undertone of sarcasm.

“That would be most reasonable. This journey is a detour from our previously appointed path, thus getting back to it as soon as we can should be amongst priorities,” then – of course not to spite him, simply to make her concern known – she added, “Is Engineering not equipped to handle such a demand?”

From the corner of her eye she could see Lieutenant Reed and Captain Archer sharing a brief look, perhaps with matching smirks, however since her vision blurred at its edges, she couldn't be sure.

What she could see quite clearly, though, was a squint in Commander Tucker's eyes and his lips brought into a straight line, his gaze measuring. “Oh, Engineerin's good on any demand ya might throw at us. You'll have your vehicle in eight hours on the dot.”

“Thank you,” she replied, unnecessarily in her opinion, but it was a behavior expected on a human vessel.

“But not without a price,” the Chief Engineer added casually, shifting his stance to lean on the wall behind him, his arms rising to settle on his chest.

“Excuse me?” She felt her eyebrow move up considerably, a reaction of a surprise. She noted to find time for meditation before the departure to the planet's surface.

Trip blinked contendly, one side of his lips considerably higher in a grin. “If I'm buildin’ a vehicle from scratch for ya, I'm gonna enjoy ridin’ it too,” he locked his eyes with her, the blue surprisingly bright in the room’s lightning. “Besides, ya gonna need an engineer with ya in case something stops workin’ and I have an extra pair of hands.”

T'Pol saw the focus of the gathering shift back to her, awaiting her response. She needed to fight an urge to crease her forehead in consternation, simultaneously moving meditation higher on her inner list of importance.

“Do you expect your creation to fail?” She challenged him.

“I expect you to break it on purpose just to tell me it broke,” he quipped back, moving his brow in a provoking manner himself.

Before T'Pol had a chance to reply, Captain Archer interjected, apparently amused by the exchange. “That's not a bad idea, Trip. With all the interference down there, who knows what could go wrong. It seems always something does, anyway,” the last part Jonathan murmured off-handedly, but for everyone to hear.

He got a series of nods and even a couple of chuckles in return.

T'Pol didn't share the amusement – partially due to the fact Vulcans did not indulge themselves with such an emotion, and partially, because their missions rarely seemed to be as straightforward as they appeared, indeed. In her personal opinion, Captain Archer should take this deduction into better consideration and draw his conclusions, but she wasn't going to suggest that in front of the staff.

The officers around the table begin to disperse, somewhat naturally sensing the meeting was over and all had been said and done.

Commander Tucker sent her a look she had a hard time deciphering – was it teasing? – and turned around on his heel, most possibly making his way to Engineering right away. She was aware the task she asked of him would not be particularly easy to achieve, however at this point she had no doubt he would find a way to fulfill her request. His ingenuity was one of the features she grew to commend.

“I think I owe you good luck,” came from T'Pol's right.

Captain’s voice brought her focus back to the present. “Captain?”

Jonathan Archer chuckled. “For the journey back and forth.”

This time T'Pol allowed herself to frown. “I'm afraid I don't understand.”

The smirk the captain sported grew an ounce. “You will, you just haven't met roadtrip Trip yet.”

“Is he different from Commander Tucker's usual persona?” She questioned, maintaining the illogical style of description the man used.

“Yes and no,” Archer shook his head, his expression good-naturedly sanguine. “He's the Tripest Trip you could Trip to Trip,” he recited as if from memory.

This sentence didn't make any sense. She told him as such.

“It will,” he assured, giving her the last entertained glance before he picked up the PADD he had entered the briefing with and made his departure, leaving her alone.

The interaction left her quite confused. However, one thing was clear – it would be beneficial to ensure she had plenty of time for meditation after the mission as well. Commander Tucker regularly tested her patience, and she doubted that this time would be any different.

Top 9 events of 1980

1981 - The wedding of Princess Diana and Prince Charles

In the media, the marriage of Lady Diana Spencer and Prince Charles seemed like a fairytale. It was certainly the most important event of the year to British Media, Diana and Charles' marriage, would provide drama for years to come even after their divorce 15 years later, in 1996. The events taking place after their divorce changing peoples view of the monarchy to this day.

1982 - Falklands War

The defining military conflict for Britain in the 1980s. the Falklands War, started when Argentina occupied the British dependent territories of the Falkland Islands as well as South Georgia and. the Sandwich Islands. Hostilities were 10 weeks long and the British military response resulted in Argentina's 'waving of the white flag'. Interestingly, the war helped to improve life for both the Islanders and the Argentinians, the former having their British citizenship restored and economy boosted, while the latter saw the government's military image crumble and democracy restored the next year.

1983 - Thatcher wins landslide

Another outcome, positively or negatively viewed, of the Falklands War for Britain was the boost in popularity that Margaret Thatcher received for the successful outcome. Favourable opinion polls for the Conservative Party left Labour and Liberal/Social Democratic Party Alliance far behind. In cosequence, the Tories gained 58 seats in the 1983 General Election and secured another term as Prime Minister for Margaret Thatcher.

1984 - Miner's Strike

Starting on the 6th of March in 1984, the Miner's Strike was a walkout in protest of coal mine (also known as colliery) closures in the UK by Thatcher's Conservative government. The National Union of Mineworkers struck for a year until many returned to work when the Union pay ran out. This dramatically reduced the power of the union to negotiate with the government which arguably made the situation worse for both miners and customers, who switched to gas or found other providers.

1985 - Live Aid

Founded by musicians and philanthropists Bob Geldof and Midge Ure, Live Aid was a benefit concert for famine relief in Ethiopia held simultaneously at JFK Stadium in Philadelphia and Wembley Stadium in London. Acts in London included Adam Ant, Sting, Phil Collins, U2, Dire Straits, David Bowie, The Who, and Queen, amongst other. The concerts raised over $127 million for famine relief.

1986 - Major industries privatised

A major goal of the Thatcher government was to privatise many industries that had been nationalised in the early 20th century. Amongst the industries that went private within a couple years of 1986 included British Gas, British Airways, the National Bus Company, Rolls-Royce, Council Houses and many more. The privatisation was pushed aggressively by the Tories who relied on their overwhelming majority to accomplish their political goals. Pushback from the public and a weakened Conservative government led to a slowing of these efforts.

1987 - Thatcher wins third general election for Conservatives

In what might have been a reality check for some of the Tories' more aggressive policies since the landslide in 1983, the Conservative Party lost 21 seats in Parliament after the 1987 General Election. While still enough to give Margaret Thatcher another go at Prime Minister, nothing was really the same. Pushback against privatisation led Conservatives to pursue other issues and sometimes individual agendas and was arguably the beginning of the end for Margaret Thatcher's premiership.

1988 - Liberal Democratic Party Forms

The previous alliance between the Liberal Party and the Socialist Democratic Party had between around since the 1970s but in ten years had failed to achieve its goal of supplanting Labour as the UK's other major political party. In response to the 1987 General Election, in 1988, the two merged to become the Social and Liberal Democratic Party eventually just known simply as the Liberal Democratic Party eventually just Lib Dems.

1989 - Tim Berners-Lee invents the world wide web

Arguably the most significant technological advance of the 20th Century, the world wide web (or web as we know it today), was the creation of Sir Tim Berners-Lee in 1989. It was the product of Berners-Lee's merger of hypertext with the internet to create an information sharing network amongst researchers. The first public web pages appeared only four years later and has revolutionised our world.

Yet there can be no doubt, that the same capital well employed in these mines would have yielded an immense return: a confidential man of business, a practical miner and assayer, would have been all that was required.
