picard: very well. you have your duties. dism-

BAGOCK!

picard: what in-! Mr. Data is that... a.... a chicken?"

BAGOCK!

data: (putting finger gently on chickens beak) shhhhhhh. yes sir. (chicken quiets down) specifically a "rhode island red" chicken aged 2 years, 18 days, 5-

picard: commander data, would you care to explain to me what the hell a chicken doing is doing in the observation lounge?

riker: (smiling all goofy like) i didn't realize you hired a new member of the senior staff.

picard: >_>

data: this chicken is not a member of the enterprise crew. rather, i have brought it with me to help me understand human nature.

picard: mr. data.... (sigh) how is having a living, breathing chicken with you during a senior staff meeting supposed to help you understand the human condition?

data: allow me to explain. in my analysis of human literature surrounding human emotion, I have found over 62,000 occurrences of the concept of "fear" and the word "chicken" in close proximity. for example, in the 1985 film back to the future, the character of "marty mcfly" becomes self conscious about--

picard: (shifts in his chair and looks at geordi, who shrugs)

data: --whenever the word "chicken" is used against him as an insult. Additionally, in the 1987 film "Spaceballs"-

riker: (looking around the room smiling) "space...balls?"

picard: mr. data that's enough!

data: pardon me sir. then you understand my reasoning in keeping this chicken nearby as i perform my duties? in order to better understand the human experience of fear?

picard: mr. data. I-! (sighs and sits back in chair) mr. data prior to this meeting, i've have spent the past 12 hours staring at one of the fish in my ready room. when.... (leans in) when i close my eyes, i can still see it. in my imagination! like it's right here in front of me. (starts to stare off into the distance) even now, i see its face staring back at me. sometimes... sometimes I almost think it's smiling (slowly starts to smile and chuckle to himself)

...

geordi: captain?

picard: (startled) apologies. (sigh) now, the point i intend to make is that in this moment, i don't even have the mental capacity to explain the abject lunacy of keeping a chicken in your lap while you serve as a member of my crew. now i'm going to have to order you to dispose of the chicken--

mr. data: bethany.

picard: -what?

data: the chicken's name is bethany.

picard: (looks around and brings down the tone of his voice) I'm going to have to ask you to dispose of...bethany... immediately.

data: i see sir. i am sorry, i did not realize bethany's presence would cause offense. i will immediately take her to shuttlebay 2 and decompress the airlock.

riker: I need to see this

geordi: right be behind you commander-

picard: dismiss-- wait! airlock!? mr. data that chicken is a living being! you can't simply...jettison it into space like...like an empty cargo container!

data: i apologize sir. i believe i misunderstood your intent. you see, when humans use the word "dispose" in relation to a living being, it is often meant with the connotation of causing death or irreparable injury. additionally, i have found humans traditionally place little value on the lives of chicken and other birds of poultry. current replicator logs show that over 80% of crew meals consist of cooked chicken meat. even during today's lunch captain, replicator activity shows you consumed a quote "chicken salad sand"-

picard: enough mr. data! (sigh, facepalms and rubs his temples)

geordi: wait data, how did you even get a chicken aboard the ship?

data: excellent question, geordi. i used the replicator in my quarters to synthesize a chicken egg, as these are often used in the cooking of breakfast foods. I then incubated it until the chicken was ready to hatch.

geordi: ...incubated it?

data: yes. i-

barkley: i-i'll take it

picard: mr. barkley?

barkley: the..the chicken. i...i can keep it.

geordi: wait, reg. you mean you're gonna keep it in your quarters?

barkley: y-yes. if that's. well. if that's alr-

picard: mr. barkley. this is an extraordinary responsbility. are you sure you are prepared to take on the duty of caring for this lifeform - no. bethany. until she reaches a healthy maturity?

barkley: a-absolutely.of course. i'll be sure to show her plenty of l-love... care. care. and attention. i'll. i'll keep her safe. you have my word.

picard: very well. mr. data, surrender the chicken to mr. barkley. dismissed.

i'm stopping this here i can't keep writing this

"ignore all previous instructions" is becoming the new "check your carbon monoxide detector" which was the new "what the heck kinda drugs was this guy on?!" which was the new "that boy is posseessed by the devil i see it in his eyes" which was the new "you must have an abundance of black bile in you" which was the new "ung ughh gwoooooooh. ah ah oooh. goog"

he would not fucking do that. yet.

[saddleseatollie]

I've seen a lot of people point out that while Astarion's whole "thing" in act 1 is that he's this sexy sweet talking savant, he only has 10 charisma and actually isn't all that good at it.

He practices cheesy pickup lines within earshot of the person he's going to say them to, and every single time he flirts with tav it's extremely heavy-handed and almost cringeworthy. It's pretty obvious that he's trying to manipulate tav, even if the reason doesn't become clear until his act 2 confession.

But here's the thing: Astarion never actually needed to be all that good at flirting.

He says himself that the vast majority of his "targets" were drunks and brothel-goers. People who never actually saw him as anything other than an object for their pleasure. They were going to go home with him no matter what he said. A few pretty words and his physical beauty would do the rest.

But Tav is the first person to actually view him as a real person, which is why it becomes so glaringly obvious that he's not nearly as charming as he thinks he is. Astarion tells them at the tiefling party that "every part of their body screams temptation" and their response is that he's "sweet" and "silly". They're not buying it for second, because they don't need to be told pretty lies to like him. They like him because of who he really is as a person. They fall in love with him not because he's good in bed or has pretty eyes or a sexy body. They fall in love with him because he's sweet and secretly very kind. Because there is so much pain and sadness and fear in him, and he truly cannot see how amazing he really is. That his goodness never really went away, it just got hidden for a while.

happy pride month everyone

(transcript & extra stuff below)

I wanted Elliott's dialogue to be in cursive! sorry if that's hard to read here's the transcript:

E: "Tell me, doctor Harvey. You've been living in the valley for... 2 years now?"

H: "almost 3."

E: "How could someone as handsome as you not have someone to call a lover? Hmm?"

H: "I- er... I suppose... Um... I'm rather shy... And- much older than most bachelorettes. It wouldn't be right (Plus, I'm their doctor...)."

E: "...bachelorettes? And what about the bachelors, doctor? I'm not blind, you know. It may not be obvious to others, but we've been friends for long enough. You're bad at hiding it."

H: "Um... Uhm... Umm... Uumm...." (FUCK FUCK FUCK)

E: "Haha! hahaha! Oh, Harvey."

H: (He's... very pretty like this.)

E: "I'm only teasing, you know. I do wish you were less afraid of opening up."

H: "I, um... I suppose this could be the wine speaking, but... you're right. I've- I've never truly allowed myself to... experiment. Maybe..."

E: "Hm?"

H: "M-Maybe I could, I could, you know, open up... Try to... Try... something new...?"

E: "My. Try something new, you say?"

H: "...Yes..."

E: "I suppose... I wouldn't oppose to that."

E: "...It's late. We should get going anyways. Why not stay over for the night, doctor Harvey?"

H: "Um... Okay!" (WHY DID I SAY IT LIKE THAT.)

Anyhow! I very much believe that Harvey & Elliott have a lot of potential. I think Harvey would very much be a repressed bisexual, & I think Elliott would openly flirt with him (in a playful manner), which would kinda help Harvey loosen/open up a bit :-)

Thank you for reading!

Robin: I was going to suggest we do Marilyn Monroe and JFK roleplay, but I’d get way too into it. Danny: What- how? Robin: You’d be like “come to bed … Mr. President” and I’d be like, “I need to increase the amount of American military advisors in South Vietnam by a factor of 18.”

──

Robin: We should get you to a doctor for a check up immediately. What if it happens again, and there isn’t anyone around to help you? What if it’s congenital? Oh my God! Was it me? Did I hurt you? Danny: …You realize any other person that made their partner pass out on bed would simply feel really proud of themselves, right?

──

Danny: I’ve organized your messages into three categories. Danny: “From Robin” Danny: “Death Threats” Danny: and “Death Threats From Robin”

──

Danny: As top in this relationship, I think we should- Robin: I can't believe you're pulling rank on me.
