Yttrium is a silvery-metallic transition metal typically classified as a "rare-earth element." The element is primarily used as a component in phosphors, as well as part of the production of electronics and some medical applications. Trace amounts of the chemical can be added to various materials to enhance their properties.

Okay so actual ST thought I had today was a Human having to babysit for their Vulcan friend because an emergency came up, and their friend gave them a contact for any concerns since they’d be unreachable for awhile

And so the Human calls them for the first time with a list of small concerns (i.e., this is what I’ve been feeding the kid, is this a balanced diet? they’re running low on the only incense they use, where do I reorder it? etc) expecting an elderly retired relative or someone else who’d be free to answer questions like that

And instead gets like. a fucking captain. of a starship. in the middle of their shift.

And it’s just so embarrassing for them to be interrupting a captain with non-emergency questions, but the captain is taking all their concerns seriously, and the little Vulcan kid is doing the Vulcan version of excitedly trying to interrupt their video call to talk to a familiar person

I’m thinking about how administrative leave requests would work in starfleet and it’s gotta be a huge pain in the ass right. vulcans would probably need a special expedited leave request process for pon-farr, because they become violent/die if they don’t excuse themselves to have sex asap, but this is probably a narrow accommodation only granted to vulcans, so if they were dating a non-vulcan who had to go through normal, slower leave request procedures that would cause logistical issues cuz emergency pon farr admin leave only works if both parties can do it at the same time, so if you’re a non-vulcan dating a vulcan you would have to probably apply to get that accommodation extended to you, and because I’m assuming starfleet operates on the same punitive logics as contemporary bureaucracies do, they’d be paranoid about non-vulcans “cheating the system” by falsely claiming they were dating a vulcan to get their leave request expedited, so they’d probably require proof of marriage or long-term cohabitation with a vulcan in order for a non-vulcan to get approved for that kind of thing, meaning casual or otherwise non-normative vulcan/non-vulcan couples in starfleet would be administratively marginalised and (re)produce a culture deriding interspecies dating, especially because humans seem to be kinda default racist towards vulcans in star trek in general, so they would probably view a human dating a vulcan as getting “special privileges” for administrative leave even though it’s just a basic accommodation. this is a classic example of how administrative apparatuses operating on a liberal conception of equity can reproduce systems of racial discrimination

[ilovefredjones]

what i really like about prodigy is that they don’t name the vau n’akat after solum!! so many species in star trek are named after their planet (vulcans, bajorans, orions, etc) which is not the case for humans & im so glad the species & planet are differentiated

What would it be like to be spock,s mate/ other half ?

This goes for a Non-Vulcan, gender-neutral reader 

Words: 841 

Warnings: none 

First off, Spock would cherish and love you very much – in his own way. 

So at fist it would take you some time to being able to read him and find out what his love language and way of showing his caring for you is. 

Maybe that first phase can be frustrating because it feels like he’s still rather distant. Tho he’d actually need some time to get used to the whole situation and know how to deal with it. 

But once you figured him out, so much he did earlier in the relationship would make sense. And of course anything else he does in the future. 

It would take him some time too to get to know and fully trust you before he will tell you about what he thinks (and feels if he does have a feeling for once) 

He will almost never say ‘I love you’ but use other words like ‘I cherish you’ or ‘You mean very much to me’ or ‘I must admit that I am feeling a sense of happiness I cannot and do not wish to suppress if I think about you having decided to be my mate’. 

Which, if you consider him being Vulcan, is something very sweet to say. 

He will always remember anything you told him and not forget any birthdays, anniversaries etc. and will also be able to gift you something that you maybe just mentioned in passing. 

He’s not the most touchy person – especially in the beginning – and will not often initiate physical contact with you. Or at least ask first like if you’d like a hug when you’re not feeling well. 

Which doesn’t mean he doesn’t like physical contact – it's just something he’s not used to and after a while he will even enjoy it when you just hug him. (But of course you respect his boundaries if he sets any and will also try to hold back some touches so you’re not constantly touching him) 

If you don’t work on the same ship as he does, your relationship often becomes long-distance, consisting mainly of regular calls. 

Which also means that moments he’s back with you are something to be cherished and enjoyed, making you try to spend as much time together as you can. 

He’d make it clear that he also has a responsibility to the crew and the ship. Meaning his work usually comes first. 

Then again, if he feels like your life is in danger he might even make a rash and not so logical decision sometimes.  

Your little quirks would amuse him to no end and he’d find them super cute but he’d never admit it. 

But if you mention them being silly, he will correct you, saying they’re a part of you and that he loves you as a person and you wouldn’t be you without your quirks, meaning he doesn’t want you without them. 

You totally could have long talks with him and sometimes the biggest challenge is that they don’t turn into a monologue of him where he’s talking and talking about a topic. (eg something scientific or one of their adventures they’ve been on) 

Of course you would introduce your families to each other and Amanda loves you from second one, treating you like a second child 

Sarek is of course more reserved about it all and he might seem scary at the beginning but with time you learn to read him too and that he means very well and is fond of you as well. 

Spock would teach you a lot about Vulcan and it’s culture while you try to show him things from your world and make him more open to them. And it’s much fun to see him try and struggle with some things (take Inline skating as a basic example) 

Jealousy would totally not be a thing. Because you know that if someone flirts with him it would be illogical if he paid attention to it (and might not even notice what they’re doing). And he trusts you too and knows that there is nothing he has to worry about if people try to flirt with you.  

However, there sometimes is the thought within him that he fears you could leave him for ‘someone better’, who is from your own race and would be able to show their love for you more openly. 

Meaning that then it’s up to you to comfort and reassure him that he’s the only person in the whole galaxy you want. 

It gets better once you get married because of the mating bond that would be done then.  

The wedding would be mixed, part Vulcan, part from your world. And it most likely would come to be when he’s experiencing Pon-Farr. 

But he has informed you about it and even proposed so he’d know that if it happens to him you will be willing to take him as your husband (or wouldn’t feel forced to just do it to save his life) and that it isn’t all totally surprising to you. 

Thank you so much for your ask and sorry this took a while.  (also I really hope I got it right and this was about what you wanted xD)

the main thing that makes me go mmmh re: T'Lyn is... what the hell was she doing in between 2x09 “wej Duj” (when she was kicked off the Sh'vhal) and 3x10 “The Stars at Night”?? it's possible that she was just training for Starfleet service but we have already seen that weird stuff happens when characters have unexplained holes in their backstory (eg with Rutherford). Plus there's the fact that what T'Lyn had in 4x05 “Empathological Fallacies��� that was broadcasting her emotional turmoil on the ship is likely not Bendii Syndrome at all, even though Beckett assumed it was, and in any case it's one hell of a condition to have. T'Lyn is essentially a ticking bomb of emotions, even more literally than most other Vulcans. It's likely that there's a lot more we don't know about T'Lyn, and I'm waiting for further reveals. I don't think those reveals need to be hinting at evil deeds! But again, I wonder how it's going to play out.

You know what they say about playing Yuumi too much. - No...? If you play Yuumi too much, you BECOME Yuumi. - That's literally so stupid. Dumbest thing I've ever heard in my life.

[papaver-decervicatus]

tiktok keeps recommending me videos of bassists and I cannot stop thinking about julius because of you

First ask ever, let’s go!!! Let me, not at all, remedy this issue you’ve found yourself with, anon! Answer Below the 'read more'

Most of what Julius plays is in the safety and privacy of his own home, and it’s not a hobby he ever really brings up. If anyone knows about it and is egging him on to join a local bar-band while out, he has to be about 6 beers in to even entertain the idea. If the lights in the venue won’t blind him on the stage he does require being blindfolded for stage fright reasons. 

He usually starts predictable and “universal” with something like Pink Floyd’s Money or Superstitious by Stevie Wonder, he’s always partial to a little Super Freak by Rick James, too. The sort of stuff you’d find on a ‘Top Ten Bass Lines of All Time!’ list because for the most part those are songs that are popular in their own right without the kick-ass (if a little sanitized) baseline. But that’s not where his heart is, his heart has always been with Heavy Metal (Metallica, Black Sabbath, for a more recent example see anything in the Doom Metal subculture/subgenre like Ramesses and Valhall) and Neue Duetsche Härte (think Oomph! and Rammestein.) And I’m not talking slipknot, Tin or Steel levels of metal, I mean straight up Mercury or Lead poisoning. The second song is always when things get interesting. 

See, the funny thing about König playing the bass is, people hate playing in a band with him. Think about the phrase “take em for a walk,” when it comes to a musical breakdown, yeah well. König never got the memo that a bass is supposed to be a rhythm instrument first and foremost. He takes that puppy for a full on marathon sprint, shows off to the max, he’s playing the lead guitar’s part or the vocals half the time if he knows the song well enough. With his own personal double neck bass, Walküre (obligatory quick mention of @kneelingshadowsalome‘s series Valkyrie, go read it yesterday if you haven’t already) he is replacing the strings four times as often as he ought to because, as gentle and loving as he is with the instrument as a whole (he adores her, and is probably a few screws loosening away from sleeping in the same bad as the damn thing), his playing is naturally violent and bombastic to the point of shredding his fingers and the strings. 

His style is something like this (Djent Style, a sub-genre of metal) 

But he likes his kickback and reverb, way, way, way up. The only thing louder than the mess of pure sound coming from the amps is the barely-recognizable music notes cascading out. König doesn’t know what dynamics are, if he’s playing it, it’s gonna be loud, except of course, when the rest of the song gets quiet. 

He usually finishes a set with something classic like Metallica’s Master of Puppets or 21st Century Schizoid Man by King Crimson because those are universals, everyone’s gonna know them. But if he’s feeling particularly pumped, in his element, or is that drunk, he’s playing a once in a lifetime rendition of Agent Orange by Sodom (because trash metal isn’t heavy metal, but it sure is fucking fun!)

The second he steps off the stage, however, he’s practically running away to get to the bathroom or a shower or something. König isn’t usually a sweaty guy, or at least not more so than any other man, but when he jumps off the stage he’s practically swimming in clammy anxiety and sweat. Finishing his little show and going back into the crowd is his least favorite part of the ordeal by far. It’s a dire tone shift once he’s finally gotten back to the people he came in with, from a heavy metal god that rivals the craftsmanship and raw power of Hephaestus or Vulcan to… demure and anxious Julius Doss, dodging praise like bullets on a battlefield. He would never admit it, but he absolutely adores the compliments and awestruck expressions he gets from his little displays of what remains of his teenaged exuberance and the blood hammering adrenaline of having everyone's attention on him (usually the very last thing he wants outside of the field.)

That being said, practically no one gets the privilege of seeing König on bass but when they do. God, do they fucking see it. 

[myidic]

It always makes me feel giddy when I remember that Spock is literally heir to the most influential clan on Vulcan. He's basically Vulcan royalty. Starfleet was probably simultaneously shitting themselves over the first Vulcan officially joining Starfleet, and being terrified of accidentally causing a massive galactic diplomatic incident of fuckup proportions.

Thank god he's on a purely scientific mission, and doesn't have a thrill-seeking adrenaline fueled streak a parsec wide, and egged on by his boss/best friend who throws himself headlong into danger. You know, the same man he accidentally psychically married after ritual combat? ... oh, wait.

im making an starfleet OC crew exploring the galaxy after events of DIS (im also only on TNG s5 so i dont know everything yet and may be uncultured sorry. i watched DIS first and have also seen LWD)

i have a vulcan butch lesbian/counterculture/punk woman. but i want him to be punk in a vulcan way so heres what ive thought:

asymmetrical/pointedly impractical haircut (eg. can get into your eyes or in your face?), messily cut fringe

wears green (green is the colour of vulcan blood), bright colours in general, absolutely no black/gray/brown/earth tones other than accents

copper jewellery (same reason as above) + jewellery is smtimes worn by lady vulcans but not really guy vulcans as much

non-repeating/uneven patterns

"romulan"-esque clothing shapes eg. square shoulders

belts that serve no practical purpose eg. some romulan belts that are just decor

nonpractical clothing also distinct from vulcan ceremonial attires etc and instead draws from other non-vulcan cultures

wearing ceremonial attire Wrong on purpose

Destiny Muses

Finally getting around to making this. 😅 I'm new to RP so I apologize if information is incomplete or missing! 🙏

Mun is an adult (25+).

I'm currently not accepting any romantic, fwb, or nsfw RP. I'm also not accepting extreme gore or horror (a little is okay, as Destiny already has these themes [re: Clovis Bray]).

I'm currently not accepting any fantasy AUs (eg DnDestiny) or crossovers besides Halo*. If Halo, I would prefer the main events to take place in the Destiny timeline. For example, Duane-B312 is my version of Noble Six, but his story starts during The Dark Below.

*I can accept crossover characters but not the setting itself. So no gallivanting across Coruscant, Vulcan, or the Citadel, sorry. I might allow a trip in the TARDIS if you're particularly convincing.

Avraam and Bai are [mostly] canon-compliant; RZ-3 is not. I don't have any expectations for canon compliance/divergence but I know it can bother some people.

All spoilers (RP or not) are tagged on this blog to the best of my ability.

I don't have any TWs at this time but can tag whump/angst/grief if asked.

Shower thought: Solok in his academy days having it out with Sisko as per canon. But, he finds himself falling for a human woman and that story plays out until they get married (Sisko never finds out, actually very few outside the T’Kumbra crew know) - but! that’s not the whole story because fast forward to their baseball game on DS9, Sisko is giving Solok the usual shit and Solok keeps egging him on, building up to when Sisko sees this little human woman sitting in the stands cheering on…the Logicians? And he’s like “who’s that?” Solok (cool as a freaking cucumber) is like, “my wife”. And Sisko’s just, “Your who, now?”.

Leave it to a Vulcan to play the long game and draw out a petty rivalry and prank for over TEN years, only to come onto Sisko’s turf, playing Sisko’s fav game to just mic drop and moonwalk off while Sisko’s reality crumbles. He also makes sure to give her a long kiss in front of everyone and she’s just shaking her head at the male egos.

OH MY GOD YES. I can just imagine the look of shock on Sisko's face when Solok kisses his wife. His whole brain is short circuiting as he witnesses this.

I can totally imagine a little cheering human in the stands and the entire Logicians team knows her/is completely unfazed by her boisterous behavior, because that’s their captain’s wife. She knows each of them by name.

Sisko is like ??? “how the fuck does she know them?”

This is such an adorable idea. Solok’s commitment to the bit and absolutely tossing it back in Sisko’s face is just *chef’s kiss*

OOOOH, and if they had a small kid who was watching? Sisko hears the kid call out “go daddy!” and his head’s spinning like ??????????????????

[ylkcheeeks]

What if a new version of Sailor Moon S where the witches 5 are legit grad students and they are aliens from Tau and their specific fields are their theme for their plans. EG Tellulu is not just plant themed but her plots attack the local flora because her thesis is based around getting Tau flora to thrive here.

Alternatively I would enjoy a “new” anime that was the witches 5 as a workplace sitcom with the numbers filed off, and also the above adjustment.

Eudile, geology/terraforming, hotrod hobby, allowed to be butch if she wants

Mimette social sciences/social media influencer spreading positive sentiment for the Mugen Integrated School System (it’s totally work omg u guys don’t understand longitudinal studies show…)

Villuy is perfect, can remain a sexy hacker, steals people’s energy through Alexa or whatever

Cyprine & Ptolil (spelling that is beyond me rn): one is studying string theory and the other is a PEI reconstructionist and the other witches are constantly mixing them up. They can affect the area around them creating a bubble of distorted language or distorted time (superimposing earlier events on now, basically) and combine into one purple witch and it’s great

Kaori Nite is the head of the math department and Souichi Tomoe’s peer, not secretary. Both because that makes his seduction into the dark side better for me- she appeals to his intellect and his desire to save Hotaru, not just his 🍆 ego- and because there’s the number sub theme with mistress 9, pharaoh 90, each witch having a power level, etc. it implies Tau are a very number forward culture

Concept: Tauians as evil sexy Vulcans. Kaori is a brainwashed Sailor Romulan? Too far.
