#guinan tng

[3bugsinatrenchcoat]

when i started watching tng a few months ago i was looking at the imdb of john de lancie because i recognised him from days of our lives but i misremembered him as being on frasier (?????????) and my very jumbled thought process led me to a set of glorious hypotheticals that i started asking everyone i knew who had seen tng/ds9:

1. if there was a star trek version of cheers, would it take place in guinan's bar (tng) or quark's bar (ds9)?

2. if there was a spin-off of that st cheers that was an analog to frasier, who would be the frasier equivalent?

3. what would the theme song of that st frasier be?

the answer to 1 is complicated; it's subjective, both would be amazing. i think guinan's bar would be more similar to cheers, but quark's would be way more entertaining to me.

for number 2, and i cannot stress this enough, EVERYONE I ASKED (including myself) HAD THE EXACT SAME ANSWER FUCKING VERBATIM: q and/or lwaxana troi (i say and because, let's be real, frasier and niles are practically the same character so q and lwaxana could easily be both of them.) so now imagine how fucking good they would be as a duo. and then having a spin-off of that.

for 3, it turns out most people are not as autistic as i am and could not answer without help, so what i did was play a series of songs that i thought could maybe work and again the answer was unanimous: fuck me pumps by amy winehouse. it's classy, it's elegant, but it's also ridiculous and slutty (that is a compliment, i love that song) and somehow perfectly encapsulates both lwaxana and q????

anyway i encourage you all to come up with more insane hypotheticals because it's been 6 months and i still think about this constantly. it brings me such joy

I can see why you might think that google, but I said what I meant

Guinan: I replicated you a birthday cake

Picard: But it's not my birthday

Guinan: The cake won't know that

Top Ten Least Bad Outfits in TNG

I'm gonna be honest and say that the non-uniform outfits in TNG are not my favorite costume design in the world, but there are some looks that stick with me:

10. That Girl Who Kissed Data That One Time's Outfit:

I can never decide if I like this look or I think it's ugly, but I love the pants and tall boots combo. Her blouse is bad and the bouclé jacket is both too heavy and too fussy for this outfit, but I love the belt and suspenders combo, and the chevron embossing on the suspenders. This costume and all the others except #9 is a Robert Blackman design.

9. This Jumpsuit On That Girl From "The Dauphin":

This is the only William Ware Theiss design on this list. I love his TOS stuff but most of his TNG designs leave me cold 🤷‍♀️. But I love this is extremely 80s jumpsuit. Love the pretty drape, love the ruching on the sleeves, love the harem pants silhouette. Only note is that the whole bodice should be a structured corset bodice instead of the kind of odd structured panel it has now.

8. Picard's Shorty Pyjama Set:

TNG is absolutely full of the strangest pyjama choices you can imagine and Picard is no exception but I love this bold look. Would kill for this pyjama set. He also takes a work zoom wearing this one time which is insane.

7. Data's 1890's Looks But Specifically This One With The Shirtsleeves And The Blue Shirt:

The best part of "Time's Arrow" is that Data isn't a fish out of water in the 1890s, he's absolutely killing it, and I love that the only real Casual Data look we get is this one. I prefer the blue shirt to the pink because Data should really wear more blue, it's a nice contrast with yellow. Please also note his emerald watch fob, which was 0% necessary to blend in, he's just having fun with it.

6. 12 Year Old Keiko's Linen Overalls:

The paperbag waist! The bow! The little bows at the shirt cuffs! I can understand why she replicated a miniature copy of this outfit.

5. Beverly and Guinan's Dixon Hill Holodeck Costumes:

I'm counting these as one because they're essentially the same design in different color pallets but what color paletts! Bev is pulling off the very difficult pink+red+red hair and the mint green on Guinan is 🤌. I particularly love how Guinan's hat is so 1940s yet also echos the silhouette of her usual costume.

4. Deanna's Teal Dress:

Like all of you I prefer Deanna in the uniform, but this dress slays, ok? The space age asymmetrical neckline. The drop waist. The structured bodice. The slit almost all the way to the hip. And of course the matching tights and shoes CANNOT BE BEATEN. Also one time I saw a dude on a Star Trek forum call this a "ballgown" which baffles me to this day, this is clearly a slightly fancy day dress.

3. Picard's 1890s Look:

You'd think Picard would go full posh in the 1890s but instead he gives us this working-class Shakespearean director look and he 👏 looks 👏 incredible 👏. Way to mix textures, Jean-Luc.

2. Lore's Turtleneck and Giant Vest:

You and I know that Lore stole these clothes from the Pakleds because we pay a lot of attention to Star Trek costumes, but to a normal viewer Lore shows up and this is just his outfit!! It's giving, like, space-age goblincore and it's incredible. I want wear this oufit every day. I want to make a little doll Lore wearing this outfit to express my love for it. It's only not #1 because the pants are too orange and a strange weave.

Deanna's Ancient West Holodeck Outfit:

Deanna!!! The pants! The hat! The calico! She looks 10/10 hot in this outfit. For sure the superior version of this is before she gives her neckerchief to Worf (it really benefits from that cool highlight) but either way this is the best anyone's ever looked on that holodeck.

Star Trek Six Fanarts! Well. 18 Fanarts. I got carried away okay?

Two are suggestions from discords I’m in, and the third one is all my favs! If any of these in particular tickle your fancy, feel free to use it as an icon! Just tag me please!
