#ash’s complete star trek rewatch

[t-rina]

Can’t believe they wasted Kira’s outstanding looks in “life support” on crying over bareil :/

I'm always up for some fun 😁

[TAG SOMEONE YOU WANT TO KNOW AND/OR SOME OF YOUR BESTIES]

favourite colour: I might have picked a definite answer when I was younger but as of now I've come to the conclusion that I like all colours. Would I paint my walls bright pink? Probably not. Would I wear a sunny yellow dress? Probably also no, because I have the skin colour of untoasted white bread and it would look absolutely awful. So it really depends what item is supposed to have a specific colour and what mood I'm in.

last song: something from my Good Omens playlist, apparently "All I Want" by Kodaline.

last movie: Spider-Man - No Way Home while being sick, but really only half-assed, scrolling tumblr and stuff while doing so. I only just realise, that I could have watched Venom - Let there be carnage instead, which I might have enjoyed more.

currently watching: Loki season 2 and Sex Education Season 4, I also want to watch The Fall Of The House Of Usher

other stuff I watched this year: The complete 5 seasons of The Dragon Prince, all of the 13th Doctor (was pushing this off the whole time but finally wanted to keep up to be prepared for the upcoming 60th Anniversary special), Good Omens season 2 of course (and rewatched seaosn 1), all 3 seasons of Staged (highly recommend for GO fans!), the final season of Disenchantment, the 3rd season of The Witcher (I'll most probably drop it now that Henry Cavill isn't playing Geralt anymore), Sandman season 1, Star Trek Picard season 3, The Mandalorian season 3, Shadow and Bone season 2 - man, I watched way more than I would have thought and I probably forgot something! What the Hell! Definitely watched some new season of Rick and Morty as well...

shows I dropped this year: I don't think I really dropped something this year but I didn't pick up The Boys again after season 1 yet. Just never was in the mood for it.

currently reading: Graham. Green - Doctor Fisher of Geneva or The Bomb Party and The Talisman by Stephen King and Peter Straub which I've started ages ago and got stuck somewhere in the middle. Next up: The Crow Road by Iain Banks.

currently listening to: my Good Omens playlist, here are some of my favourites

David Arnolds soundtrack for the 2nd season of Good Omens and the soundtrack for Oppenheimer by Ludwig Göransson.

currently working on: tidying my desk so I can see the surface again and don't have to shuffle books and stuff around to connect my laptop for work, convertig the old super small flat of my granny along with part of a barn to an actual house (well, kind of) to live in and fighting the German authorities for it (a flaming sword would be really handy right now), oh and trying to write a Good Omens post season 2 fanfic in English, which is not my native tongue, as well as having ideas for an original story I should probably write in German since that IS my first language, but it somehow frightens me even more.

current obsessions: Good Omens and everything connected to it, no competitors. The brain rot is real!

That was really fun! 😁

Thank you so much @theonevoice for tagging me in this.

I absolutely have to tag my internet friend (if I dare saying so) @turquoisedata as well as @demonic-mnemonic who's Good Omens content and especially poetry I enjoy very much.

we know that bobby only watched ds9 and dean watched the tos movies for sure which implies he's seen tos as well (plus he calls jack spock). so what do you think everyone's favorite trek is? sam is without a doubt a tng fan first and foremost. i think out of all tos movies cas prefers the wrath of khan because he Feels Things when kirk and spock do the ta'al through the glass. charlie has definitely seen some trek (we've seen her llap), do you think she's into tos first and foremost? anyway let's talk about star trek nights in the bunker.

OKAY SO I HAVE. MANY MANY THOUGHTS ABOUT THIS. SORRY THIS IS SO LONG.

like. like of COURSE bobby only likes ds9 of course he does i could have told you this without the show becuase like. bobby is That Bitch. i think rufus will have watched TOS at least because leonard nimoy worked hard on linking jewish faith and practices into the vulcan lore and i think that would mean something to him. bobby will catch rufus smiling at him sometimes while they’re watching ds9 and ask him what all gruffly and rufus will smirk at him and say something about sisko with jake and bobby with dean and bobby will just cough and take a swig of whiskey and rufus will raise his eyebrows but let it slide. rufus definitely makes a comment once about dean&cas being like jake&nog that totally flies over dean’s head but bobby is all knowing eyebrow raise about.

i think cas and jack would really like discovery. while it has some issues with inconsistency, pacing, being a little dark, it also does better than the other TV treks at utilising the nature of film as a medium to instill a sense of wonder, at space and the world, and that’s something they’d really appreciate. i have my own issues with disco, but an obol for charon is as close to the central core of trek that disco ever gets. cas and jack also like that one in particular because they like listening to all the different languages being spoken. they all love michael (everyone loves michael). cas’ faves are stamets and reno because they’re mean and gay, jack’s fave is tilly because she’s excitable and bright and he latches onto that. dean likes reno because she’s got spunk. sam’s fave is airiam and he will never forgive them for killing her off. sam, cas and dean all feel an uncomfortable kinship with both ash and culber - they’ve both been the one with monster teeming under the surface, controleld by something not themself, but they’ve also all spent that time in hell/purgatory, separated from everyone they love.

thinking about episodes that would really get to them all, darmok is. THE ONE. i have a whole unfinished essay about darmok as the platonic ideal of star trek; the perfect distillation of everything trek is SUPPOSED to be about. it doens’t always get there but by god it tries! that speech michael gives in the disco s2 finale - “There's a whole galaxy of people out there who will reach for you. You have to let them. Find that person who seems farthest from you and reach for them.” - that’s what darmok is about!!! it’s all about a situation where real communication seems impossible, where everything we know about talking and learning has broken down. and picard says, okay, i will find another way. i can’t relate to you, you can’t relate to me, but by god i’m going to try. we all meet people we have trouble communicating with in our lives, and often, those people will not care about changing their own ways to accommodate us. for people with autism, adhd, psychosis, the list goes on, this is a very common occurrence. it’s exhausting and frustrating and alienating. darmok is all about crossing that barrier. about reaching for someone through a world of difficulty and learning how to talk. learning how to share something with someone who seems out of our reach. it’s beautiful, it’s heartwrenching, it means more to me than i can easily put into words! 

anyway i think the bunker fam would experience a lot of emotions watching it together. there’s defintiely a lot of hugging eachother, sam cries a lot and won’t look at anyone until after the episode ends. jack just asks a lot of questions and talks about his progress learning sign language with cas. dean snakes his hand into cas’ halfway through and doesn’t let go. doesn’t show the emotion on his face, but he clutches harder at the emotional beats. cas runs his fingers through jack’s hair and thinks a lot, and decides not to say anything unless dean talks first. its just a Lot for everyone. 

dean def makes them marathon all the TOS and TNG movies. it’s an experience everyone needs at least once. i think you’re right about cas and TWOK with the ta’al through the glass, but also ‘this simple feeling’ and the hand hold would make him feel crazy. bones being the one that spock entrusts with his katra DEF makes dean feel some type of way because as much as destiel is kirkspock-coded, dean IS bones, and seeing spock trust bones so completely despite how at odds they were when they first knew eachother would dig deep into dean’s psyche and make him more than a little bit nutso. the movies are way too long for jack so he mostly sits and plays animal crossing while they watch and looks at the screen when everyone else gasps or when something exciting is happening that holds his attention for a while. sam’s fave is nemesis precisely because it’s terrible and he loves how camp it is.

dean has definitely seen all of trek. i refuse to believe someone who watches as much tv and films as dean wouldn’t sit and watch the whole shebang. i think he’s probably seen TOS and the TOS movies more than the others because its easier than sitting through 7 seasons, but i think rather than that being his favourite he’d just have really strong opinions about the best episodes of each one? like if you asked him what his favourite is he’d say you can’t answer that because they’re all so different from eachother

VOY - bride of chaotica, non seqitur, macrocosm for the favourite episodes. seven, janeway and tuvok would be his favourite characters. he think toms a bit of a knob but also feels a kinship with him for the similar brand of bab dad-ism but he wouldn’t be able to put that into words. he’s also a fierce defender of threshold being a good episode (he’s right for that)

DS9 - our man bashir it’s our man bashir. he doesn’t dislike ds9 but its very plot heavy and he didn’t care for it when he was younger. rewatching it after living through multiple supernatural wars he’d probably appreciate it more. i know for a fact he cries every time there’s an episode about sisko being a good dad. jadzia and garak are his faves

TNG - he LOVES q. he also absolutely will not be caught dead referencing how much loves q after cas comes into his life because sam will do the little brotherly knowing eyebrow raise at him and he will die of embarrassment. he regularly references ‘there are four lights’ because he’s a fucking nerd. he has made cas watch elementary my dear data and fistful of datas a half dozen times each at LEAST. cas KNEW how dean was going to be about the cowboy hat he’s defintiely got into full cowboy getup at home just for watching movies and in cas’ head star trek is fully to blame.

TOS - oh there are so many good TOS eps to choose from. obv he loves most of the series becuase TOS has MANY banger eps, his favourites are probably like. mirror mirror, amok time (baby dean defintiely had some kind of crisis watching it for the first time; i know the rituals are intricate). i know deep in my bones that dean watched the conscience of the king (introduction of the tarsus iv massacre) once and then spent his entire teenage years writing fic about that in his head, whether he posted it or not. dean related too much to those experiences of shared hunger. city on the edge of forever is one of everyone’s faves for a reason (and i’m STILL mad we never got a closer take on that episode in spn it could have been so fun). 

ENT - he definitely thinks enterprise is stupid and he’s not wrong but he has also definitely watched it and been very repressed about the whole thing. mans was like oh i feel a kinship with malcolm reed the obviously repressed queer man. i will never examine this feeling ever again thank you <3 he also makes fun of archer for being obsessed with, of all sports, water polo. shran is his favourite character because he’s a little shit and makes him laugh, and t’pol, because t’pol is a badass and he’d appreciate that. i can’t remember the title of a single episode off the top of my head though lol.

i can see what you’re saying about sam being a TNG stan. i’m conflicted though, I feel like TNG’s generally the favourite of 1) obnoxious nerds who think knowing trivia facts makes them smart, 2) men desperately trying to seem masculine and 3) people who’ve watched it three times and have extremely complex thoughts on the personhood and rights of robots. i could see sam fitting into the third group, but people who are in it for the robot feelings are a coin flip between voyager and tng being the fave, and i just have a feeling that voyager would be his favourite. i know kid sam is getting gender envy watching voyager in shitty motels while dad and dean are out, trying to find the words for it. his first semester at stanford he talks a friend into giving him the janeway haircut and rides that high for months. sam’s favourite characters are seven and EMH. 

sam and dean have definitely had dozens of long drawn out debates about philosophical topics in star trek. do the holograms deserve rights and if so which ones. are the romulans and vulcans still meaningfully the same people. was spock right for trying to foment reunification by going undercover on romulus. can the borg be redeemed. etc etc.

i haven’t seen any of picard at all so i can’t comment. i also think sam and dean probably read a lot of the trek books? they’re pretty common to find in secondhand bookstores and cheap, would have been even cheaper back in the day. sam probably doesn’t care for them much, dean has a few solid faves though. i’ve only read the disco books so i can’t comment anything specifically (besides the fact that i think dean read dead endless and cried like a baby), but some of the TOS and DS9 books are gay as hell and i know dean was eyes emoji-ing that shit.

devilmaytrans replied to your post: i could talk about star trek for literal hours, do...

Do it :)

alright, dammit, it’s time for today’s edition of “jesus, ash, please shut the fuck up how do you have this many feelings about fucking star trek what the fuck”

behind a cut cuz it got long lol

i already talked about this a bit on twitter, but i have more room to elaborate here so here’s a short list of my favorite tng episodes in no particular order and why i love them:

tapestry: this episode. THIS EPISODE. basic synopsis: picard is hit with a blast the fries his artificial heart and he “dies”. q takes him through the moment in his youth where he got that heart after a bar fight and challenges him to change the past and stop himself from getting in that fight to save his future life. but when picard does this, he returns to a future where he never accomplished any of his greatest feats and is stuck as a crewman just going through the motions. it’s all q’s very roundabout way of telling picard that, despite what he views as the mistakes of his youth, he’s a great man that is perfect just the way he is and that he shouldn’t look back on what made him this way with regret. the dynamic that they have in this episode is so different from all the other times they interact, it’s so soft and casual and it’s so much of q wanting to learn about picard and this is rambly and probably makes no sense but fuck i love it so much.

measure of a man: short synopsis: a starfleet scientist want to dismantle data to continue his research into creating more androids like him. data refuses, as does picard, and after starfleet tries to force data into it by claiming that he’s “their property” picard demands a trial in which he needs to prove that data is sentient and therefore not anyone’s property. this is the shit that i adore star trek for. i am such a slut for discussions of morality pertaining to the sentience of robots and ai and this episode is so fucking raw and poignant. i rewatched it the other day because a lot of the plot of the picard series references this episode and it just makes my heart swell with how much i love this show and these characters.

best of both worlds: this is a 2 parter in which picard is assimilated into the borg. fuck, this episode makes me cry every single time i watch it, without fail. years ago they did a big even for tng’s anniversary where they showed it at movie theatres and eli and i went and i was like “fair warning, i will weep like a baby”. it is just so devastating watching picard have his humanity basically ripped away from him as he’s assimilated and literally used as a weapon against starfleet and the federation. you can feel the fucking raw trauma and ache in his heart after he’s rescued. the episode after this one he takes shore leave to earth to visit his brother and that one also makes me cry, fuck

the next phase: this one is just fun. geordi and ro are in an accident where their bodies get phased between planes, so they can see each other but no one else can see them. the enterprise crew assume they’re dead and data throws a big funeral party and it’s just a lot of fun shenanigans. 

frame of mind: i just like this one cuz it’s dark and fucked up. riker is falling in between hallucinations that he is either in a play on the enterprise or in a mental hospital. turns out he is neither of those things at the end, but what a good mindfuck of an episode. the later seasons are full of this shit and i love it

menage a troi: i just love this one cuz it’s my queen lwaxana troi at her best

q-who: i love all the q episodes, but aside from tapestry, this is my favorite. q forcibly introduces the enterprise to the borg long before they should meet. this episode is tense and full of q and picard having smoldering staring contests and i love it so fucking much. q’s single minded focus on picard in this episode gives me life.

the outcast: this episode is so imperfect, but i love it anyway. riker, known ladies man and big beardy hunk, falls for a member of an androgynous, agender race of aliens. it should be obvious why i love this episode. jonathan frakes has said that they fucked up by not casting a male actor to play his love interest soren and i completely agree and i love him for that. but it’s still pretty good.

chain of command: picard is captured by the cardassians and tortured. if you can’t tell, i am a slut for picard whump. this episode is pretty classic and well known (THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!) so i won’t babble too much about it. it’s just really dark and tense and well written. i recently read an older article on slate comparing this episode to the torture scene in the ‘09 trek movie. here it is, give it a read.

the big goodbye: this one is just simple, good, old fashioned holodeck shenanigans, and that’s all there is to it.

I watched episode 8 yesterday and episode 9 today and IT HAS BEEN A TRIP. One worthy of ‘shroomspace. I don’t even know if I’ll be able to sum up all my thoughts coherently without rewatching.

SPOILERS BELOW

Episode 9 has definitely been hard to watch. While 8 was touching and painful but in a good way 9 was just gut-wenching (still good, though, it was excellent) and it was really really hard to watch because it goes there where you don’t want to know.

It feels like they expected parts of fandom (and After Trek, yes, I’m still salty about this) going “Tyler bagged himself a Klingon, harhar, he had a good time” and this episode was a slap in the face to them.

But it wasn’t just the flashbacks and Tyler’s PTSD which made this episode so hard to bear.

Michael. OMG. Michael also had to relive and face her trauma by going back to the scene of her greatest defeat and loss. She had to once again fight the battle she could not win before. Watching her battle felt so liberating. After all these months she could finally act.

When she stood on the bridge of the Discovery once it was over and watched the Klingon ship go up in flames with Captain Georgiou’s comm badge in her hand... And then she smiled. It was finally over. She could finally leave that day behind her and move on.

I’m so happy for Michael and in that moment if I had been watching alone I would have been crying happy tears, no lie.

And Stamets. Oh my. Stamets and Culber and just seeing them together and their love and care for another, and Stamets being a self-sacrificing hero not just to win the war, but because he wants to open that door to discovery.

Their “I love you.”

Their kiss.

I was a little disappointed when they didn’t kiss in the toothbrush scene but this kiss was fantastic. I’m actually not sure if it was their first on-screen kiss but it’s the first one memorable to me.

Stamets and Culber are everything I’d hoped for and so much more. I had honestly not expected that they’d actually treat them just like any other heterosexual relationship, despite such promises. I mean we always get such promises and then we get 30 seconds of screen time and a just-a-little-more-than-friends hug with creators afterwards telling us they’re gay. But their relationship is an integral part of the show and the plot.

I’m coming to like Lorca for himself and not just as a “love to hate” character like I did for his first couple of episodes - but sorry, buddy, you were bullshitting about exploring. You manipulated Stamets by promising him exactly the incentive he needed to risk his life with these 133 jumps. It was the same shit he pulled with airing the plea for help by the mining colony (complete with “think of the dying children!”) to hype the crew into going to lengths they were not willing to go. Stamets with the ‘shroom drive, Landry (though he didn’t aim it at her specifically) with the tardigrade. His mind games got Landry killed and I’m just glad it hasn’t (yet) gotten Stamets killed.

Oh yeah nearly forgot this but despite that scene in the brig I’m not really worried about Ash as Voq anymore. Maybe I’m falling exactly into their trap and setting mysef up for avoidable heartache here, but it just seems so counterintuitive from a writer’s perspective to spend so much valuable screentime on an abuse survivor storyline only to turn around and go “lol we were just trolling you, ALL FAKE” That doesn’t make sense to me. 

The first time, sure, you can lull in people with the sad story and they’ll love Tyler and then the shock is all the bigger. But Star Trek isn’t a show produced to be watched once. Star Trek is filmed so people 40 years down the line will watch it and still enjoy it. It is made for DVD sales and rewatches and all these things which bring you money once that first time airing is over. Star Trek is a long-time money maker. And sure, now you have a shocker. But that would come at the sacrifice of having the next 40 years of viewers (who know that he’s a Klingon and just faking) being bored by like, half the first season while they wait for the real plot to pick up again.

That just doesn’t make sense.
