Doug Jones and Tara Rosling on the set of 'star trek discovery season 5'

[whymakedecisions]

Saw the version with the og 5 going around, so I thought I'd spread the deluxe (2x the chaos, double the potential for unhinged admirals) edition.

I feel like we should take a moment to appreciate both how well designed and performed Saru is in Star Trek Discovery. Mostly because of his lack of teeth. no teeth ⤵

His mouth area is so well put together it almost entirely hides Doug's mouth, and the thing i've noticed most is you rarely (if ever) see his teeth, more specifically his top teeth. You only really see hi top teeth if he's angry, and this is because of how superbly performed he is by Doug, considering he's such a smiley person with a very toothy grin, and i think it makes his appearance so much more both friendly and alien. We know kelpiens do have teeth, in the episode with Su'kal there was a scene where younger Su'kal screamed and he had teeth, but i think the lack of visible teeth in saru and when Su'kal talks, whether intentional or not, makes them such a believable species

See look at his lil baby teefs

Does this Star Trek character know where the clit is?

Let’s start with the captains:

Kirk- probably? But he doesn’t always use it proper. Still better than most.

Picard- this man’s posture becomes a plank as soon as the word is mentioned. Yes he knows, yes it because he slept around as a student, no he will not talk about it.

Sisko- 100% knows and knows how to use it too. I think he loves giving head.

Katheryn- of course.

Archer- doubtful. He claims to know but he goes into every sexual encounter as well prepared as he goes into his role as captain or any battle situation or ANY contact with aliens or- I’ll stop.

Saru- no. Man’s didn’t even know his body was capable of surviving a major fever.

Michael- Of. Course.

Freeman- yes, but.

Pike- for certain. I think he also liked giving head or anything as long as his partner is into it. I just KNOW he’s also a little freaky, but refuses to show it to anyone, ever.

Can I just yell into the void the appreciation I have for Saru. He big he toll he SAFE. Shepherded his crew safely through time and LOVES so fiercely. Terrified 70% of the time but still there for his crew and captain. Fucking love him. Big toll monster man going where no other Kelpien even dreamed of going before. I would trust that man with my life.

I love this character so deeply. He's been through so much and still chooses to believe in the good of others. Even when terrified he does his best.

Star Trek Captains, A Review and Categorization II - The Wrath of Polling

I'm 100% sure it's due entirely to people not knowing the poll existed, but where the support of Capt.'s Rios and Seven are annecdotally strong, I've got numbers for Spock, Batel, and a surprising tie for third of Scott and Saru.

Without further ado...

Captain Spock

At least four generations of Done With Your Shit™️. Your ideas are stupid and wrong and he can prove it mathematically...which is why he can't get enough of Kirk, weird lil' himbo twink just dual-weilds the middle finger at the No Win Situation and Spock has to check his calendar to make sure Pon Far didn't arrive early! (We get it, Spock, we've all been there, right ladies?)

Scorecard

Enterprise Captains He's Given 'The Eyebrow' to: 4

Civilizations unified: 2

Ancestors whose name rhymes with "Barthur Cronnan Spoil": 1

Amount of time he kept one ship in battle-worthy condition when all the others of its class and generation were being mothballed, destroyed, or lost to the future: 40 years

Siblings he just never talks about: 2

Category: Space Elf

Captain Batel

Probably the one person in Starfleet that can always call out Pike on his shit. Maybe not Mom to Pike's 'Dad,' but not bad as the cool stepmom. Yes, Chris, she'll take care of Chapel while she deals with her boy issues, we'll have some girl time, it'll be fun!

Scorecard

Number of Pike fans INSANELY jealous she managed to land in Pike's bed: Like, all of them!

Number of musical numbers while in command: 1

Number of musical numbers that singing voice should have been given: ...a LOT more!

Amount of patience to deal with Pike's mid-life crisis: 9,001

Category: Step-MILF that will teach you how to drive when Dad (Pike) gets too 'back-seat-driver'-y

Captain Scott

Crouching Engineer, HIDDEN BADASS! Kirk may sit in the Captain's chair, but we all know who the Enterprise lets put her engines to bed for the night. This man can make any engine or transporter you can think of just sing, all in perfect accompaniment to his bagpipes.

Scorecard

Times he accidentally created a time machine (with Spock on assist): 1

Times he accidentally hosted a murdering parasite: 1

Times he out-drank an extra-galactic entity bent on stealing HIS ship: 1

Times he tested transwarp beaming with an admiral's dog: [0/1] <- YOU open the box! I'm not collapsing that waveform!

Times he unironically used the line, "There be whales here!" in a 23rd century space vessel: 1

Category: Miracle Worker

Captain Saru

Proof that a prey species can unequivocally kick your ass. Ride or die. This man will take your spaceship, captain it efficiently, and give it back to you better than when you got it. Alfred to Burnham's Batman. Might call you "Daddy," but we know who wears the belt.

Scorecard

Evolutions (you know, like Pokemon): 1

Autistic crew he's whole-heartedly supported and mentored: 1

The last page of this sketchbook was devoted to the wonderfully talented Doug Jones.

Ok but Captain Saru and President T’Rina of Ni’var are so cute though. 😭 I hope it remains that way.
