Crackling and popping static can be heard from one of Alex's radios. Someone is trying to connect. A few moments later, a familiar voice filters through:

"He-llo-o? Charlie Alpha Lima!" Cal. "Is anyone there? Am I coming through? Testing, testing, one two three!"

Don't mind him, he's just going to approach Alex ( @rradiio ) from behind, wrap his arms tightly around his waist, and rest his chin on his shoulder.

[eyeofthebrainstorm]

Forever mad about how well Strange New Worlds understood the assignment on the musical episode but then how poorly it executed it.

That said APOLOGIES THE MOST CONFOUNDING THING ....

[the-blind-geisha]

So I've just recently gotten back into the Mario fandom due to being sick and recently came across your profile and your King Boo drawings spoke to me. The way you draw him is just so beautiful. He's different from how I've seen others draw him and it makes me love him even more.

Then I saw a post you made in October of last year mentioning King Boo, Opera and Phantom of the Opera, which is my favorite musical so I'm just wondering, would you maybe sometime in the future combine the two and make a phantom of the Opera King Boo. (Unless you have and I haven't found it yet lol) I don't know why but the combination of those two just seems chaotic and beautiful and I would love to see it.

Keep up the fantastic job friend

Hey there! That's always wonderful to hear about you rejoining the fandom. ♥ Just late last year was me rejoining myself.

Maww, thank you so much! I am glad that my King Boo drawings are enjoyed as they are. That truly does mean a lot to me! Always happy to spread more of the King Boo love, as he is a treasure. ♥

Oh, haha, I think I remember someone liking that post not too long ago! Funny thing is, while I only know that one gorgeous number from the musical (I'm sure you can easily guess which one I am talking about), I've never watched the musical. Even in chorus when I was tasked with watching quite a few of them, I never got to watch that one!

I do know enough about it via a friend of mine, so it wouldn't be hard to do my own version with King Boo. 👀 It would be fun! I still had a small idea of him haunting a music theater where he'd help someone sing. ♥ I just never got around to it!

This is certainly encouraging though! And I thank you so much for the lovely words! ♥♥

Round 4-"duet singing"

Contestants:Luis kōkyū and Aoba Yamamura

"this bring me memories of my time at school where i learned how sing,dance and perfoming Kunio and Natsume can be agreed with me...even if in that time some things happened but i was looking forward for this round but....

"Luis are you okay with this song? Considering "Melting Rouge Soul" it's a love song... although i already sang it with Kunio once"

[starberry-cupcake]

I have my Problems with star trek strange new worlds sometimes but whoever decided to do a musical episode ending in a 'we're all in this together' closing number with uhura saving the day deserves a tender kiss on the forehead from me

Uncommon Duet

Okay... okay okay... So, Subspace Rhapsody. We know Federation ships on the subspace network were affected and some Klingon ships. But consider this...

Logic dictates that the Vulcans likely has a division of agents monitoring subspace covertly, spying on allies and enemies alike to discern out any potential threats to Vulcan (first) and the Federation (second).

Equally believable is that the Romulans are doing the same thing. Well... more enemies than allies in this case, but there's no way the Romulans wouldn't be monitoring the Federation, the Vulcans, and the Klingons. At least their subspace frequencies.

Which is where the funny comes in.

See, it's now canon that Vulcans and Romulans are extremely emotional, vastly more than humans. Vulcans have developed a mental switch to shut off those emotions. Romulans have vast social traditions (and Romulan ale) to basically yank their emotions under control. Spock's issue is that he has two competing systems (human and Vulcan), which is why he wrestles with keeping his emotions (human-weak or Vulcan-strong) in check.

Fine, fine, fine, but what does this have to do with Subspace Rhapsody?

Well... the temporary musical reality demanded that people who get emotional sing. And people struck with that with no context as to why it's happening...

Somewhere out there, a Vulcan spy, who realized a volatile subspace anomaly might really hurt things, felt the briefest pang of fear which then, instead of being controlled, forced them to burst into song.

Somewhere else, a Romulan spy--who tried stopping singing with Romulan ale--ended up singing more.

And that's why, recorded but unheard by most except those spies who have the highest access to secrets, is an amazing sensual, spirited Vulcan/Romulan duet.

I soooo want to hear it...

[roscvcins]

also, like for a lyric starter.

cause. uh. why not.

[laney-rockin]

Seeing the trailer for "Subspace Rhapsody" was so cool. Even more cool was the fact that Kirk is back on the Enterprise for some amazing musical shenanigans.

Kirk is a first officer- what the hell is he doing away from his ship he's supposed to help command? Well I don't know but I'll let him have his free pass. He deserves it.

ALSO ALL THE HETEROSEXUALITY IN THAT TRAILER?? Despicable /j. Where's my dramatic Spirk duet that culminates in a kiss? I want that musical.

Anyways! I am way too hyped for August 3rd and I will be insufferable when the episode comes out for realsies.

"♪ Let your mind start a journey though a strange new world Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before Let your soul take you where you long to be Only then can you belong to me

Floating, falling sweet intoxication Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in To the power of the music that I write The power of the music of the night

You alone can make my song take flight Help me make the music of the night ♫"

[radicheart]

Alex might be back, but Cal's still out.

He did leave a note on the off chance he did return, though:
