Happy Threshold Day!

In past days I suggested what if Culluh kept the salamander babies now I suggest what if he kept the Salamander babies and Seska baby

Oh hai! It’s been a while, but the lovely @coffee-in-that-nebula tagged me in the seven sentences challenge, so ofc I had to come and share! Here are the FIRST seven sentences of my current WIP:

First Maje Jal Culluh peeled the dried blood from his calloused hands, sloughed off under a stream of water in his bathroom sink, tinging it red as it swirled the drain. Beneath the blood, his russet skin flushed crimson over his knuckles.

The Ogla man had broken easily, big talk when Culluh’s warriors dragged him from his pathetic little ship but weak under Culluh’s fists. It was a good thing, too; the information he carried had the potential of being worth more than all the meager wealth of Kaza. More even than the extravagant wealth of Relorus. In fact, if Culluh played his cards right, it could be the beginning of a new, unified Kazon empire.

There were strangers in Kazon space.

I have no idea who has already done this, but if you haven’t, consider yourself tagged. 😉

Everyone reblog this with your favorite Janeway quotes, please. 🖖

"I don't like bullies, and I don't like threats - and I don't like you, Culluh."

Lead the way

Anthony De Longis is so freaking awesome.

So I recently found out that the guy who plays Maje Culluh on Star Trek Voyager, aside from being an actor, is a master swordsman, stunt coordinator, fight choreographer, martial artist, and an absolute BOSS at the bullwhip (he taught Michelle Pfeiffer how to use it in her role as Catwoman, and Harrison Ford for Indiana Jones 4), and went toe-to-toe with Jet Li in Fearless. AND he can do all those stunts…on horseback.  

(De Longis’s fight is at the 1:12 mark.)

Also? He was one of Garrett Wang’s (Harry Kim) teachers at UCLA. And he starred in the Masters of the Universe film alongside Robert Duncan McNeill (Tom Paris; he held him at knifepoint in one scene). From what I could find on him on YouTube, he seems like an awesome guy, super nice, well-spoken, and a great teacher.

This guy is SO GOD DAMN COOL. Culluh deserved way better than what we got with him. Knife fight with other Kazon Majes when? Never? Not even a beatdown against Chakotay or Tuvok, or even attempting fighting B’Elanna with a bat’leth? We have been robbed.

Chakotay’s whole vibe of acting like he thinks he should be shot for being attracted to women is probably bc of Seska but it also makes him kinda dykey to me 🤷

STAR TREK: VOYAGER // S3E1: Basics, Part II

[stvoy-kazon-stan]

Things that remind me of the Kazon Part #6

The Gith (DnD)

(Art by William O'Connor)

Honestly pretty simple the Gith are a people who were enslaved and when they freed themselves spilt into 4 groups called "Sects" Githyanki, Githvyrik, Sha'sal Khou and Githzerai (as far as I know) and some became space pirates and raiders and the sects raids each other just like the Kazon

Honestly this has to be the closest one yet even down to the unpopular appearances with fans

All that really stood in Seska's way was Kazon misogyny. Otherwise she would have ruled a Kazon sect in a heartbeat.

It is disappointing that her story arcs were all dependent on men, when Seska by all accounts was an independent survivor. Seducing Culluh to get into the sect made sense to begin with, but Seska should have left his misogynistic ass behind pretty fast.

I always thought it was a lost opportunity to position her as a scheming lady MacBeth when she had such potential as a powerful enemy. I know they used the "Obsessed with Chakotay" bit to motivate her coming back to try and claim Voyager, but they could have pushed harder on the technology angle instead.

What I really would have wished for with Seska's character is that she was used as Janeway's narrative foil.

Seska steals, lies, manipulates and murder to get home. She will give technology to whoever can get her there faster. Janeway, by contrast, stands fast to almighty Federation principles. We could have seen the two journeys side by side, see Seska progress in power throughout the quadrant, see her sacrifice everything and everyone in her way.

We understand who Janeway is because we understand who Seska is.

Until of course some kind of showdown where everything comes to a head. Federation principles vs. Cardassian ruthless determination.

A fanfic choice I have mixed feelings about is that I posted completed prompts for The Voyager Writing Game as chapters in a single work instead of as individual works. An upside is I felt more free to write anything I wanted and not worry about reception (though readers were lovely anyway, thank goodness). A downside is those ficlets are now ridiculously difficult to find. So, for me and for you if you’re interested, here’s a master list with links:

The Awe of Acceptance Prompt: Write a drabble (100w) from the perspective of a character you've never written before and inspired by the word "awe." (Maj Culluh and Seska’s baby)

I Will Not Comply Prompt: Write a story using only dialogue, without explicitly identifying the speakers by name/rank. Suggested word limit: 500w, but open to any length. (Seven of Nine and Starfleet adjudicator)

Better Prompt: Write the rarest Trek pair you can think of to the prompt “Hell no.” (Wesley Crusher and Kes, bwahaha)

Let Slip the Dogs of War Prompt: Every good ST villain deserves a good fight scene. Craft yours to showcase their talents. (Kathryn Janeway and a Hirogen hunter … but a lot of readers didn’t realize it was Janeway at first, which was exactly what I wanted)

Water, Water Everywhere Prompt: Write a story of exactly 47 words. (Tom Paris, oh my heart)

Mothering Prompt: A short conversation between two Star Trek characters from two different shows/movies. (B’Elanna Torres and Beverly Crusher)

The Point Prompt: Based on this Tumblr post, which shows Voyager actors in previous movies/shows, choose a gif (or more) and write a short scene, AU or Voyager-based. (Tom Paris and Kirsten Clancy, both enrolled at Starfleet Academy)

The Marvelous Lightening Prompt word: Storm. (Kathryn Janeway, Gretchen Janeway, Phoebe Janeway, and, in a way, Edward Janeway; post-Endgame)

Alight Prompt I chose from among the options: Dialogue prompt, “You didn’t deserve that,” for a double drabble. (Seven of Nine; for those who remember or are curious, yes, this is the post-Endgame one where she sets her biosuits on fire)

Dedication Prompt: Busted! Someone got caught breaking regulations. With the someone usually staying on the straight line, and the one who busts them often on the other side of the regulations. (Kathryn Janeway and Reg Barclay, the one I sobbed writing)

Do Holograms Dream of Photonic Sleep? Prompt: Nap. You want one, you need one, you dream of one, you can't fall asleep. You wake up from one. Alone. With somebody else. But, really, all you want is to have a nap. (EMH and B’Elanna Torres)

Your Gaze Upon Me Says Everything I Need to Know Prompt: Write the same scene from at least 3 different POVs. (some fun with J/C, J/7 … and the J/C we all agree is canon)

Ransomed Prompt: “We cross our bridges when we come to them and burn them behind us, with nothing to show for our progress except a memory of the smell of smoke, and a presumption that once our eyes watered.” — Tom Stoppard (Kathryn Janeway reflecting on Rudy Ransom)

Duped Prompt: "It should not be forgotten how much the loser contributes to almost any game." — Lord Dunsany (Voyager ensemble, “Course: Oblivion” with a happy ending? No, not really.)

Nothing Unreal Exists (Except When it Does) Prompt: Only one bed. Enemies to lovers. Whump. Everyone has a favorite trope. Write a story that subverts yours. (I chose “love will find a way,” Kathryn Janeway and Mark Johnson — but quite possibly not what you expect)

Anyway, @voyagerwritinggame, if you’re still out there— thank you for everything. 🫶🫶🫶
