STAR TREK: DISCOVERY // S5E9 Lagrange Point Listen up. Our captain is in there. The Progenitors' tech is in there. We're getting them both back. Failure... not an option. All right. Let's do this.

As I'm standing in line waiting to vote, I'm wondering how President Rillak ran her campaign...

What was her slogan?

"A vote for Rillak is a vote to restore The Federation"

"Rillak for Restoration"

Who did she run against? What were the issues? Did she have endorsements from individual Starfleet captains or just Starfleet in general?

Did Vance vote for her?

i will never understand the lack of book/michael fics out there like disco has given us so much for them esp because book doesnt even show up in the top 10 of disco characters on ao3 even tho he's helped a ton with michael's character development and is so interesting in his own right

how do book and michael as a ship only have 54 fics but owo/detmer has 200+????

i love ash and pike and i understand why they both have so many fics with michael but pike knew her for all of one season and whatever he heard through spock and ash and michael were so fucking unhealthy. book is so healthy for michael and so good for her and they have so much space where people could write fics for them but they gets jack and shit in comparison to other ships.

also they stay friends after they break up and its so clear they still have unresolved feelings and fanfic writers are so good at exploring that in the ways shows dont!!!

one of the het ships in star trek ever to me

Rillak is invited to speech! So moving!

Rillak: Ah yes, even these intergalactic perils didn’t kill you both, but I want to explore this trauma in your relationship in more detail now by describing….Burnham why are you taking away the mic?

Sorry I didn’t nail the outfits yet. (Maybe next time!) I need better shots of these with less… flares? And the filter made it hard for me to understand the color and patterns of Saru’s attire. XD Anyway a proper recap will follow soon when i fully digested this ep.

still a bit annoyed that disco’s final season unintentionally focused on someone else’s return to the captains chair after taking three whole seasons to make Michael captain, an entire season after Saru, and only after he stepped down

The writers and David Ajala did such a good job with Book that even when he's completely in the wrong, doing something terrible, and putting Michael in a horrible position I still love him so much, and that never wavers for a second. There's a lot of characters on this show that the things they say to or about Michael or the positions they put her in, years later I am still mad at them about it. But you always empathize and understand where Book is coming from and love him even if he's wrong and incredibly frustrating

sicktember round-up

Look! I did it! All of them! Yeah, there are a lot of drabbles in there, but there are four or five that push 1000 words. A lot of fluff, some is more sickfic adjacent than full-blown sickfic but it was a good time and now there is abundant reading. Every fic is a different ship (or gen pair), so sorry about the tagging.
