29, 39, and 40 for the Star Trek asks, please. ✨

Thank you so much for the questions!

29. Favourite and Least Favourite Episodes:

Ooooh, good question! Let's start with the negativity so we can end on a high note 😅

I... honestly would put most of Picard seasons 2 & 3 in the "least favourite" category 🙈 If I had to pinpoint some lowlights, it'd be "Fly Me to the Moon". It's not a bad episode in itself and in isolation, I might not mind it, but the two times I watched through season 2 in order, this was the episode where I found myself crying and/or shaking with rage and disappointment when it was over. Probably becuase it really drives home that they're serious about where they're going with this series I used to love and it's not somewhere I can follow.

Disregarding that... I have a terrible memory for this kind of thing 😅 And I guess it depends on what you mean by "least favourite".

I think one objective measure to use: I don't ever want to see the ENT mpreg episode again, where everyone acts like Trip Tucker having his bodily autonomy violated in a horrendous way is The Funniest Shit™. That has seared itself into my brain so much that when I was rewatching all of TNG, DS9, VOY, and ENT to take notes for the holo-tech database, it's actually the only episode I wanted to skip.

There are also some real bombs in season 1 of TNG, and some of the Ferengi episodes in DS9 are firmly on my "no thank you" list. But yeah, I think the involuntary mpreg takes the cake, honestly.

Now for the much funner part: There are SO MANY episodes I truly love! DS9's "Take Me Out to the Holosuite" and "Badda-Bing Badda Bang", PIC's "Broken Pieces", VOY's "Concerning Flight" (which is apparently controversial?), "Drive", "Bride of Chaotica!", also any VOY episode that has Naomi Wildmann in it...

There are also A Ton of Deep and Dramatic episodes I love, but from my instinctive answers I'm realizing that what draws me to an episode as a "favourite" is apparently "It's fun!" (and likely involves the holodeck? 🙈🤣) So yeah, if we're talking favourite, not best, it's probably something along these lines.

39. You have to relocate to a planet other than Earth, which do you choose?

Hm, that's a tough one. I feel like not that many planets readily spring to mind, so I'll have to really think about this.

It'd probably be near the centre of the Federation for that sweet, sweet post-capitalist utopia (and also because my family is presumably still on Earth and I want to be able to visit Very Frequently.

Vulcan is a big No, because my body does not function above 25° C🙈 I love snow and ice, though, so Andoria might be a real option (though not technically a planet, I guess 😋).

Beyond that, I'm honestly drawing a blank. I think I haven't seen enough TOS/TNG in a while, so I don't remember too many worlds they visited. But yeah, probably somewhere that's close to the Sol, close to the centre of the Federation, has good temperate-to-colder climate to live in... In the end, it would probably very much depend on why I'm relocating and whom with.

40. If you got a Trek inspired tattoo, what would it be?

Another tough one 😅 I don't have any tattoos and don't think I'll ever get any. For one, I'm way too scared of that kind of long-term commitment, but also my skin has Issues™ and I don't know how long a tattoo would look decent.

If I were to get one, though? Let's be honest, it would be some version of the Sirena logo. That little ship has shaped my life in ways more profound than I can even say. Sirena and her crew got me to write again after over a decade, gave me so, so, SO much joy, not to mention all the incredible, wonderful friends I foud along the way (that's you!)

I think for me, Sirena stands for found family, friendship, healing, creativity, allowing myself to feel joy in my nerdiness and head for new adventures. So yeah.

If not that, probably some variation of IDIC, either the symbol or the saying in Vulcan script 🤔

Hello!

It's really very kind for this being what you do, it's great! I will try to help you as best I can.

I understand that exploring an identity as complex as ours can be strange or even confusing, but theriantropy (and many other identities) is a beautiful and interesting identity. I will give you some information that could help you in your

✨self-discovery✨

So, let's get started :3

To begin with, you probably know what a therian is, as you are wondering about this identity, but I will try to explain some things that we do not necessarily know as a "new" therian.

A therian is an individual who involuntarily identifies as partially or fully animal, usually on the non-physical plane. It is a deep and constant (=which usually lasts a lifetime) identity.

The animal a therian identifies as is called the theriotype. The theriotype can be an animal species that exists or has existed on Earth, or even an imaginary animal species.

A therian does not always identify as 100% animal, it depends on the individual and can vary over time.

A therian can identify as a cat, a wolf, but also as a bird, a snake, a dragon (provided that he has very animalistics behaviors) , a shrew, or even a sea slug or a virus, literally any animal species can be a theriotype.

And yes, there are physical therians, they are very rare but they do exist. They are often victims of clinical zooanthropy or are holotheres, which are hallucinations or delusions that convinced that they are physically or can transform into animals. They are as valid as the others and are not necessarily crazy! I know some who are very nice.

Some basic words about theriantropy:

an awakening: the awakening is the moment or period in a therian's life where they realizes that their animality is due to the fact that they are a therian.

a theriotype: a theriotype is an animal that a therian identifies as.

a polytherian: a therian who has multiple theriotypes

a monotherian: a therian that has only one theriotype

an omnitherian: a therian who identifies as every animals

a shift: a variation in an individual's animality. Some therians experience shifts and some don't, and it's not just therians who can experience them.

a mental shift: the individual's mentality becomes more like that of his type.

a phantom shift: the individual feels one or more parts of the body (tail, fur, beak, scales, horns, etc.) of his theriotype in addition to his physical body. This part of the body is not visible.

a dream shift: the individual is or transforms into his type, or experiences another type of shift during a dream.

a cameo shift: the individual shift into an animal/creature as which he does not identify. Anyone can make a living from them, although they are quite rare for most people.

Species dysphoria: a feeling of shame, sadness, embarrassment, anger, despair, that an individual feels because their body and/or daily life is human. Not all therians experience this.

Species Euphoria: A feeling of calm and well-being that a therian can experience when they find a balance between being human and animal. Not all therians experience this.

a gear: something that helps a therian connect to their theriantropy. (The most well-known gears are masks and tails, but a figurine, a bag, a bracelet, a tattoo, can also be a gear)

Find your theriotype:

It's not always easy to find the animal you identify as. You have to do a lot of research to be sure. For this I advise you to make a list of all your most common animal experiences and to do research on which animal corresponds the most to your experiences (for this I advise you Wikipedia and animalia.bio).

You don't have to start your research right now, you can wait a bit. The search for a theriotype can last several months, even years (for example, it's been more than 8 months since I had my awakening and I'm still not sure I found my theriotype).

A few exceptions already know their theriotype (because they have past life memories, or because they know they have unconsciously copied the behaviors of their pets).

Gears?

Gears can be very useful for expressing one's identity, and for inducing species euphoria/repelling species dysphoria.

Of course you don't have to have gears to be a therian!

Some therians don't like it, or can't afford to have it.

But if you can and want to have some, really pay attention to real fur gears!!!

Never buy tails from Amazon, Aliexpress, Shein, Wish, and any other Asian site! Animal rights there are non-existent... These poor animals were raised in cruel fur farms where they were mistreated in such a horrible way that I prefer not to explain it to you... Even so-called "fake" tails can be real, and even dyed tails can be real.

Find out about the size and the company selling it before you buy it!

I highly recommend small regional taxidermy businesses, where the animals live long, happy lives in the wild, and their tails are collected once they die naturally.

Don't hesitate to find out how to recognize an ethical or cruel tail.

There you go, I hope I helped you both, have a great day ;3 Take care of yourself

Bye! ✿

dear therian friends,

there is a young person in my life who is beginning to explore their therian identity + so i would like to ask you to share with me (if you're willing) your own experiences or anything you believe would help them through this process

thank you all
