#THIS WAS MY FAV LIL PLANET ARC THING

[nebulouscoffee]

10, 15, 35, 43 for the Trek ask game?

Thank youuuu and sorry for the late answer! Love these questions <3

10. Which alien pet would you most want for your own?

Honestly I have always been very charmed by Worf's childhood pet domesticated targ (portrayed by Russian wild boar Emmy-Lou😂) - but I would happily adopt a Bajoran hara cat, Cardassian vole, or that cute lizard who climbs over Jadzia on the jungle planet

Anyway look at this lil guy!!!

15. Top 3 favorite alien crewmembers?

Oooh, this is tough. Am I choosing my favs overall, or based on how much I like their alien-ness specifically? If it's the former, then Kira, B'Elanna, and Dax - if it's the latter, then Odo, Worf, and Saru (Discovery). (Deanna and Kes leaving you out Hurt Me but they didn't write you alien enough for the latter list!! Still top 5 favs though <3)

35. A minor character you wish had become a main character?

Okay let's talk about the long-form arc potential both Seska and Suder had. Literally my favourite thing about the Suder episodes is the questions about restorative justice they raise- is there any point in locking a man up after he's sincerely reformed and no longer dangerous? Is it possible to be? Is it fair to the victim's loved ones to give him the right to roam around like nothing happened? What sort of thing could count as "reparations" in Voyager's situation? What if they really had been stranded with him for 75 years? Would he ever have been able to move on from what he did? What sort of hobbies might he take up in his new life? What would it take to win Janeway's trust? Would the victim's friends ever forgive him? Would he rather disembark the ship and start anew somewhere, or remain with his own people? Would he have been able to make new friends? Are you reading this string of questions in Jonathan Frakes's voice too? Would our main characters all have been able to get past his actions? Would it cause disagreements? How would his relationship with Tuvok have progressed? What issues would their getting back to Earth early raise for him? ... Aaaaand then the show decided to give us none of that😂 (well. except for Jonathan Frakes in a brief cameo that is :D) As for Seska I really don't know what they were thinking with her lol. She starts off as such a promising villain- literally the "reveal" in 'State of Flux' gives me chills! And you can actually understand her actions, her unexpected attachments to Chakotay and the crew. Instead of the whole pregnancy subplot (which made no sense) I would've loved to have seen her grow increasingly afraid she'd made a mistake in teaming up with the Kazon, and try to defect back to Voyager - the questions that would raise would be similar to Suder's, though in this case a bit more personal for characters like Chakotay and B'Elanna. Is she for real? Is she just doing this to trick them again? How do the Bajoran crew members feel about this? What would it take for her to win back people's trust? Say she does something messed up again, does she get a third chance? Would she make friends with Seven of Nine; someone she never personally betrayed who is also seeking redemption for past actions? Society if we'd gotten her as a regular character all the way till S7 - like an actually great redemption arc, where she ends up on good terms with a lot of them by the end (sort of like what they did with Garak on DS9) - ahhh the possibilities!!!

43. Order of shows from most to least favorite?

This is hard😅 okay I'm going to tier rank them that's easier!

Fav tier: DS9 (It's the best <3) Second tier: TNG (I can't not put it here this show literally changed my life) & VOY (has wonderful characters and has also become very important to me) Third tier: TOS movies (love them), Discovery (I have developed a nostalgia for it by now. Plus Michael is blorbo!) Fourth tier: TOS, SNW, Enterprise, Lower Decks (shows I've enjoyed but only really seen once so far) and I guess the AOS movies lol (imo 'Beyond' is the best one) Fifth tier: Picard (if it was just the first season it would've been higher! I actually liked that one) & the TNG movies (ugh) (I am yet to see TAS and Prodigy)

have you every watched voltron or she-ra? if not, highly rec!! she-ra's amazing ( in my humble opinion ) voltron is uhh the start was great bUT GIANT ROBOT CATS THAT TURN INTO A GIANT ROBOT HUMAN

hi anon- i’ve watched both, actually, though not all the way through- thoughts below the cut just because i can feel this will be long despite my best efforts. def agree on voltron but cannot say i think shera is great haha

let’s start w voltron bc it’s the og. i watched it when it was first coming out and yeah- received w great enthusiasm. keith, unsurprisingly, was my guy. allura was probably my second favourite character. love the space lion robots of it all. really enjoyed the alien fantasy drama. was extremely on-board with unlikely teammates saving the galaxy and secret galra heritage and shiro’s war ptsd and all that. i think the early seasons had a good balance of drama and comedy, too.

definitely went downhill fast, and i didn’t watch past the season where lotor first starts playing a big role in the show, in part because i could Feel the bad prince zuko arc they were going to do and absolutely did not have the time for it (cannot believe they had him and allura be a thing…. and then she dies at the end of the show). basically just got frustrated by the way the characters were handled after a certain point, the tone was a mixed bag and the plot got messy. i was lucky bc keith was one of the people who got the most consistent/thorough focus and development, but the sidelining of certain charas and the weird dvp of others was just annoying. plus the ‘funny’ episodes… no. love shiro getting gay married tho good for him #lovewins.

shera…. hm. to give it some credit: i do enjoy the silly retro cartoon energy of it (the Names!!), i think the core 3’s friendship is good throughout, and naturally i think adora and catra’s relationship is compelling, fucked up and endearing. also there were def points where (like w voltron) the smaller-scale conflicts were pretty engaging to me, esp in the way they managed to overlap them w personal struggles- adora vs the horde, glimmer’s family drama… and mermista is an icon throughout love her energy.

now for my overview of the show… season one was promising for me but the like Positivity of it all just doesn’t speak to me- it’s Very power of friendship sparkles somehow. yeah theres darkness but i feel like it always gets mishandled. the villains in shera are sooo inconsistently framed as big menacing evil or harmless funny guys & i hate it- for eg why set up shadowweaver as this military evil child abuser for the early seasons and then make her a snarky teammate by the end?? it has ambitions of doing moral greyness but it’s mostly just badly executed for me… and that extends to catra fyi, for as much as i love her. shes easily my fav character but shes not very well-written. let’s not even start on hordak and his whole mess of a plot.

on that note both shows have a weird relationship w their genocide plots also. if you want to have genocide in your fun lil show you still need to take it seriously and there are ways to do it- think of avatar or of full metal alchemist, idk. making the big bad someone who wipes out planets and civilisations to raise stakes without ever considering the ramifications / while giving them easy redemption arcs is so lazy.

both theme songs absolutely slap though.

[horromcom]

elaborating on earlier when i was talking abt the wasted potential barry carried im mainly talking in regards to his redemption/post-coma writing. not saying his pre-coma portrayal was perfect by any means, i still got some problems w it, but in comparison he feels leagues more well-utilized as a character

idk how to explain it but it kinda feels like the writers dont know WHAT to do w him anymore. like a barry redemption has the potential to be so complex and dynamic and could lead to soooo many fun ideas and episodes and potential plot threads and so many new angles to explore but the writers just dont do ANYTHING INTERESTING WITH IT (avgn voice) WHAT WERE THEY THINKINGGGG??

like ok 11x4 was. fine. still has some MAJOR glaring issues that make me foam at the mouth, but on its own its alright for the most part, i still revisit it a lot and if i dont think abt it too much its fun. 12x8 on the other hand was where it all falls apart for me

like i’ll never forget how excited i was for that ep thinking it was gonna tackle at least some of the cool new potential themes and ideas his character now carries like YES ITS HAPPENING WE’RE WINNING WAHOOO YIPPEEEE .. and then they completely botched it. like i cant say they didnt try, the ep did have some good ideas but the way it was all executed was sooo :/ disappointing and boring and surface-level and tbh kinda felt shoehorned in for a quick easy source of conflict and drama rather than being naturally developed over the course of his arc to the point where it almost feels like an afterthought and its all just so FRUSTRATINGGGG. (shrek image) they didnt even follow up on the events of 11x4. sucks especially bc this episode was shaping up to be one of my favs ever and then it actually aired and it was the worst night of my entire life hate and violence on planet earth. and it honestly has me extremely worried for future seasons too bc on one hand im scared his death’s gonna stick and the end of his arc will be whatevr the hell that was,, but on the other im scared he’ll come back and the writers will continue to butcher his character the way they’re doin. idk which is scarier AAAAA. like maybe they’ll surprise me maybe they’ll fix the problems i have and do something fun and new with him im trying so hard to stay optimistic. but my hopes aren’t high at all. the bar is at the earths core. yes im sooo excited for s13 yippee yay. yes im also shaking like a wet lil dog whenever i think abt how its almost here bc my poor blorbo might get massacred further

also the ‘doesnt get enough screen time’ slot that i checked off plays into the wasted potential angle too. like i think prior to the coma seasons the amount he got was fine (i def wouldnt complain if he had more but for what he got yeah it works) but post-coma i think the whole ‘once a season’ thing doesnt work anymore now that they’ve taken him in this new direction that requires more focus and care to develop. like i said abt how 12x8 felt rly rushed with barry’s whole deal feeling like it was tossed in without much forethought, i think that wouldnt have been so much of a problem if he were allowed more episodes prior to DO ANYTHING to establish his character growth and new motives/ideals and relationships/dynamics with the rest of the team and his clear struggles with recovery and how having archer back in the picture is affecting him and MY GOD. archer fx staff give him some filler episodes RAT NAO IM SO SRS and i know im yelling at clouds here bc i doubt this is something they’re gonna work on in future seasons considering they’re prob gonna stick to the 8 ep structure forever now which means less time to build on their side characters which drives me so mad and also another thing why have him apart of the team at all if ur not gonna do ANYTHINGGGG WITH HIM WHATS THE POINT THEN like if u for some reason cant feature him in too many eps then at least make up an excuse as to where he is or SOMETHING to affirm hes an established team member like the show claims like is he apart of the agency or not HELLO IS ANYONE THERE CAN ANYONE HEAR ME ITS SO DARK AND COLD IN HERE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SOMEONE HELP MEEEE

where am i going w this what am i talking abt im running on three hours of sleep here im not crazy i just want my babygirl sweet angel darling honeypie to have good writing and a meaningful well-realized arc and fun interesting relationship dynamics and character complexity/depth and actual thought and attention put into his development SO SO BAD I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE AUUUGHH AUUAHAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA (DATS ME YELLIN)

my OTP: anidala, han and either of the twins tbh, finnpoe

my NOTP: reylo big time, obi-wan and qui-gon what the fuck

favorite episode arc/scene: this is from the books but the story of how obi-wan became qui-gon’s padawan, anidala in ep ii bc it’s peak cringe, the rako hardeen arc in clone wars, finn and poe escaping together in ep7, that thing luke did where he faced kylo but was a force illusion all along esp bc the aesthetic of that planet >>>>, honestly all of rogue one

saddest death: 1000% qui-gon jinn to me, but also padme amidala and shmi skywalker were heavy... bhodi and chirrut and baze and cassian and jyn.... seeing han, luke and leia die also fucked w me hard ngl but i wanna rewrite the sequels anyway so i don’t take those too seriously in retrospect

favorite season movie: episode iii babey!!!!! i bawl every fucking time !!! i stan the prequels so hard and rots just is a massive fave

least favorite season movie: hmmm ep 8 or 9.... i stopped being invested sorry it was just not well done for me, too many loose ends and bad plot solutions

my ‘beautiful cinnamon roll who deserves better than this’ fave: obi-wan, FINN

my ‘this ship is wrong, nasty, and makes me want to cleanse my soul, but i still love it’ ship: uhh none op... i don’t have very many ships esp nothing nasty... maybe hardeen!obi-wan and cad bane or obi-wan and asajj ventress but i’m not too hot on it either they just have a fun dynamic... rare obikin towards tcw/rots tbh but i don’t wanna think too much abt it

my ‘they’re kind of cute, and i lowkey ship them, but i’m not too invested’ ship: obi-wan and satine bc it messes w my headcanons, finnrey

5, 14, and 19 for the fic asks ~~

thank!!! :D

5: what category of fics do you read the most? (angst, fluff, etc)

....GOD I mean like...hm according to ao3 like fluff is the most, and then comes angst (with hurt/comfort)

I wanna have a good ass time. Give me mutual pining/slowburn and I will just fuckin die HAHAHA

14: what’s your favourite AU setting?

heck if I know HAHAHAHA shit hmmm I think...if it involves ghosts or magic I’m just like “OH HELLO” because like tbh I don’t go hunting for aus XD It ain’t my style lolololol

I have seen some good af au fics and have been uuuuh part in making some...honestly it just depends? On whatever the fuck I’m in the mood for. ALSO it super depends on what fandom I’m reading for because honest to god I’m a clusterfuck of fandoms XD 

A Handful of Examples:

Lesbians in Space by panconkiwi (bud i’d tag you but tumblr is rude since you changed your url)- sci-fi au for TAZ: Balance. Team Sweetflips slowburn goodness where Carey meets Killian and they planet hop and is like...loosely based off of the Here There Be Gerblins arc (duck planet is my fav planet)

i will buy the flowershop by weatheredlaw - restaurant au and all that jazz for TAZ: Balance. I love aus where like... Julia is ALIVE and Magnus and her are just...a fuckin cute couple and doing lots of cute domestic shit and like its bonus that it has the rest of the taz balance crew like added in here with their own lil stories? Its just ugh goddamn breath of fresh air. It’s been a few years but istg it made me cry HAHA

Salvation is a Last Minute Business by @potatocrab - noir au for Fallout 4. Its just a treasure trove of like...nuggets from the game while also being its own beautiful thing. Murder mystery, espionage, and GODDAMN IT I need to like just sit down and binge it one of these days haha

Insert Something Shakespearian Here by katrinajg - deacon is lone wanderer au and yes also Fallout 4 (with added bonus of Fallout 3 mentioned things) heck. Another uh fic I just...put on the back burner despite getting DEEP into it lasdhfds It has brought me SOOOOOO much joy and like fuck dude I accidentally like...overly excited myself to the point that I uuuh stayed up overnight cause my adrenaline with the shit going down in the fic kept me up OOPS (this...is the main reason why i had to put it on the back burner LOL)

Down the Rabbithole by Lynse - college au... its ALSO a crossover fic because actually I’m a huge fuckin SUCKER for that. Over the Garden Wall, Gravity Falls, Danny Phantom, and Troll Hunter.  Basically Wirt meets Jazz, Wendy, and Toby who all have their own weird secrets and Wirt’s in denial about the Unknown.

So. I don’t have a set like...”favorite” setting au wise since these are all like GEMS and very fuckin different from each other. What can I say? I like character interaction *nods*

19: undercover au or college au?

Ok so DEFINITELY undercover, cause hot damn I love murder mysteries and that’s like somewhat compliments undercover aus? I need to find more tho, cause fuck I cannot remember for the life of me what would be considered an undercover au...

Like...I’ve read some good college au fics specifically the one I mentioned in the previous question and like...its good shit HAHA
