The faces are a wrap!! 💗

Fan art poster for the best episode of Star Trek

[joshuamartian]

I unironically think everything about this is cool. The swaggering animation. The tiny electronic visor instead of mirrored shades. The fact that they gave this moment to the most homicidal Ferengi in the whole series.

The point is, we Ferengi are just as tough as anyone in the galaxy. And this is our chance to prove it, once and for all. STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE - 6.10 THE MAGNIFICENT FERENGI

If I had to choose one Star Trek DS9 episode, it would be:

S06E10 - The Magnificent Ferengi

I love Ferengi for their determination, clumsiness, greed and desire for profits! Just look at these little trolls!

Top 3 Star Trek Deep Space Nine characters

By Ames

A Star to Steer Her By is continuing our trend of spotlighting minor and one-off characters from all the series. We did it with The Original Series. We did it with The Next Generation. And after having a lot of nostalgic vibes from this week’s podcast episode, we’re ready to give some glory to our favorite characters from Deep Space Nine!

There are just a TON of great characters throughout a series known for its amazing character work, and we did a pretty good job limiting ourselves to those who we didn’t see that much of since so many folks become familiar faces over the course of the show. So spin the wheel with us as you see all our picks below and listen to our very difficult decisions over on the podcast (discussion starts at 1:03:03). These characters will have you yelling “Dabo!”

Jake – Honorable fights

Aamin Marritza

Tekeny Ghemor

Grilka

Walk a mile in the shoes of any of Jake’s picks and you’ll be exhausted by the hardships you have to endure just to do the right thing. From a pair of Cardassian men whom we’ve discussed in our Cardassians blogpost, one who is trying to atone for the wrongs committed by an entire people and one who is secretly leading a dissident movement on Cardassia, we move on to one of our favorite Klingon lasses who just wants to bring honor to her house in defiance of some of the more sexist laws on Q’onos. Qapla’!

Ames – Voices of a generation

Tosk

Pel

Lisa Cusak

I am Tosk! The three one-off characters that I’m highlighting all make us not only look differently at how we treat people, but also in how we tell our stories. Let’s start with the first species we meet from the Gamma Quadrant who relates the complicated history of his hunted people with simplicity and humility. Next is the first female Ferengi in Star Trek, who starts us on a journey of change on Ferenginar that becomes a theme throughout the series. And finally, here’s a character who is downright fascinating despite the fact we never even see her on screen, but the sound of her voice is all we really need.

Caitlin – Found family

Lwaxana Troi

Liam Bilby and Chester

Tekeny Ghemor

Caitlin’s choices for DS9 characters are all complicated parental figures in their own ways, but like good mothers and fathers, they care for their flock and lead by example. We see a repeat from one of Caitlin’s faves from TNG, who has returned to show Odo a new side of herself. We also have a new sorta father figure for O’Brien when he temporarily infiltrates the Orion Syndicate just to have his heart broken a bit, and also Kira’s Cardassian sorta dad who treats her as he would his own daughter… who happens to have her face.

Chris – One day more to revolution

Michael Eddington

Aamin Marritza

Leck the Eliminator

“Do you hear the people sing? Singing the song of angry men?” Okay, that’s enough Les Misérables quoting for this post. Chris’s picks are all ready to fight for their beliefs, whether they be as leaders within the Maquis, resisting that Federation-Cardassian treaty that boned so many people; as a martyr making a statement about how his people need to be brought to justice for their cruel occupation of Bajor; or just as a normal guy who really loves killing for whatever reason you throw at him!

— We’re going to keep chilling here on the promenade, having a jumja stick, maybe dangling our legs over the second floor landing. There’s more in store for our Deep Space Nine friends next week when we’ll try to thwart our favorite villains of the series. So definitely keep your eyes here for that, keep up with all of our coverage over on SoundCloud or wherever you listen to podcasts, and hop in a roundabout to join us on Facebook and Twitter. There will be no running on the promenade!

I LOVE LECK.

I must draw the motherf***r just for once.

TAG Game

rules: tag 9 people you want to get to know better. (I'm stealing the previous poster's blurb here because it applies to me, too---it's my first time tagging you all, so if you'd prefer not be involved, please feel to ignore this/to let me know to not tag you in any future tag things.)

I was tagged by @cauchemarlena ! Thank you! These are so fun! 😁

last song: "Ship in a Bottle" by fin. It's on essentially all of my character playlists. And most of my non-character playlists, for that matter.

last show: The Mandalorian. Which was...not exactly disappointing, per se, but did feel a little directionless.

last movie: I...don't actually know? I haven't been doing a ton of movies lately. I've been more in a show/podcast mindset for a bit since those are easier to put on in the background while I do other things! I feel like the last movie may have been a nature doc, though.

currently watching: Casually rewatching my way through Pushing Daisies and Star Trek: Voyager.

currently reading: The Queen of Attolia by Megan Whalen Turner and Ancillary Justice by Ann Lecke. (And also bits and pieces of the whole Murderbot series as needed for fanfic research!)

current obsession: Murderbot, Discworld, weirdly specific journal stickers, finding moving/packing hacks for when I have to move house in a few months---those are like the top four at the moment, but it's an ever-changing carousel of obsessions.

No Pressure Tags:

@ilovedthestars @snugglyeldritchjellyfish @mortallysparklybread @opalescent-potato @halflingthief and anyone else who spots this and wants to participate.

[lookforanewangle]

@qin-ling​ just tagged me and I know I’ve also been tagged by @thychesters​ and @boasamishipper​ and probably many others in the past so here we fuckin go dudes (are. are we sure we want all of them. I’m going to give some hints so you can ask for fandoms you want at least lmao)

RULES: post the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, and then post a little snippet or tell them something about it! and then tag as many people as you have WIPS.

[themadcapmathematician]

I wish literally anyone remembered anything abt leck bc he's incredible. He's a flawless concept. He's a ferengi that fucking loves murder. He's just a little dude who rly likes to throw knives at people. I can't believe he's only in one episode
