Consider. Beverly Crusher and Jean-Luc Picard are in a QPR. Just. Consider it. She does his nails and gives him advice on his weird omnipotent bf. They eat breakfast together every day. They make out sometimes when they're bored. Jean-Luc helps raise Wesley. Jean-Luc is the first person to know about Beverly's crush on Deanna. I just. I. Them.

Kendra Mason headcanons because I love her

-She HATES and I mean HATES Peter Stone. Always has and him no longer doing creepy shit didn’t change that

-she’s bisexual <3

-she loves having Jane as a sister in law was even the maid of honor for their wedding

-she’s a huge fan of sports and loves playing them, one thing she and Jane bond over

-she joins the sports team with Jane :)

[mistermistyyy]

Anyone else got the headcanon that gendered locker rooms and bathrooms aren't a thing anymore in Trek? After meeting several species without sexes, better rights for non-binary people, and sexism no longer being a thing, I feel like they wouldn't see the need anymore

[spocks-husband]

nothing will ever amuse me more than the fact that it is seemingly canon that the tng crew take yearly JC Pennys family photos like they're sending out Christmas cards to all the other starships. like that last one was definitely taken in a mall in like Wisconsin or something. Will always tries to convince them to do a silly one and the only people who are down are Data, Geordi, Deanna, and Guinan and he complains about it CONSTANTLY. Like MONTHS after he'll still bring it up. This is a yearly occurance.

In no particular order.

Just a few of your Data headcanons!

⚠Warnings⚠: Mentions of injuries and blood but nothing graphic

—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•—•

‼️Worf‼️

-He is one hundred percent r o u g h

-Even without meaning to

-Like he’s aware that he has to be gentle

-But doesn’t know how gentle

-Absolutely has drawn blood while kissing you before

-Will obviously be extremely apologetic about it but won’t explicitly show it

-Unless you’re into drawing blood

-Then he’s all like 🤨

-Although in all seriousness, he would absolutely get lost in the moment

-like superrr passionate

-bro forgets to breathe half the time

-No part of you is safe from his love bites

-And I mean the bite part very seriously

-He’s a biter for sure

-He can’t help but love the way you react to it

-And can’t help his own reaction to seeing you covered in his teeth marks (🤭)

-And if you bite him back ????

-He’s head over heels fr

His eyes will also roll into the back of his head —WOAHHH WHO SAID THAT??

🤍Data🤍

-He’s for sure a little confused on how to kiss at first

-Like, he’s researched how to and stuff

-but actually putting into practice is a tad bit harder than he expected

-The first time you two kiss it’s very clumsy

-Like very clumsy

-He started out by moving his lips wayy to much

-and then just kept his lips shut tight when you tried to correct him 💀

-It’s all just him figuring it out and it’s super adorable lol

-Once he does figure it though??

-bro.

-prepare to get your breath taken away

-literally. bc he gets so caught up in it that he legit forgets you need to breathe

-but seriously once he learns how to kiss properly 😮‍💨

-And although he does love kissing you on the lips, he definitely prefers kissing you on the cheek, forehead, neck, etc.

-idk why but I get the feeling he’s just into that more

-Feels more domestic to him lol

-he’s especially a fan of butterfly kisses

-both receiving and giving

-He can’t help but love the way you smile when he does so

-Also a huge fan of kissing your nose for sure

💛 Geordi 💛

-Geordi is the type of guy to be real gentle with his kisses

-He wants every kiss he gives you to show just how much you truly mean to him

-He adores both lip kisses and kisses in other places

-But either way he’s gentle and caring with his kissing

-He’s never one for a chaste or hurried kiss

-He’ll hold you in his arms tightly as he slowly covers your face in kisses

-trailing up your jaw and to your cheekbones and ending it with your lips

-And even though these kisses are reserved for when your alone together

-he has nooo problem showing his affection in public

-it’s a little more toned down of course

-but expect him to press a nice kiss on your temple every now and again

-or maybe a short but firm and nice hug (with a sneaky kiss on the neck)

-this man just wants to shower you with affection whenever he can

-and 1000% will

-oh and if you show him some fluffy affection (preferably kisses) he will melt

-he adoresss when you reciprocate his affections and he may or may not shut down every now and again

-he’s adorable 🥰

Being Betazoid and meeting Data for the first time would include:

•frankly, utter bewilderment! There are of course, species that are immune to your natural ability, but eventually you in those moments you sense a living presence…with Data: nothing.

•you circle him a little bit like you’re checking him out, which makes Deanna chuckle, she’d had much the same reaction.

•Data himself doesn’t mind unduly. He stands still for you to make your observations. You see, he is also making observations, he’s spoken at length to Deanna about his desire to draw comparisons and research the differences between a half Betazoid and a full one. He’s read several hundred textbooks on the subject!

•you sit down in front of him, perplexed but grinning. ‘I think, Mr Data, we’re going to be friends you and I. You might be the only being in existence who could ever sneak up on me.’ You noticed his head tilt for the first time as he started to speak ‘I do have the ability to be stealthy and approach silently’ he confirmed. Deanna chuckled and then turned her attention back to you.

•she gasped to herself and smiled broadly. She didn’t need to be an empath to see that you were quite clearly smitten. With your legs swinging, smile sparkling; attention solely on Data, you were displaying clear signs of adoration. She quietly crept away, leaving you and Data to get to know each other.

Imagine our beloved Lt. Commander Data learning about the concept of "doing something as a bit" in his quest to understand humor.

He starts carrying around a pocket full of loose bolts, washers, any random little metal bits he finds.

Anytime someone asks him about it, he just looks them straight in the eye and deadpan says, "Snacks."

So far only Riker and Geordi have laughed, but one sweet and gullible young ensign brought him a dull tungsten carbide drill bit "as a treat."

Bad fanfic idea: a Star Trek fic where Wesley Crusher meets a future version of himself… after she's transitioned. Title is "Shut Up, Deadname"

[bogwarg]

Roommate had the most INSPIRED Star Trek: Generations headcanon… She said that Kirk’s world in the Nexus is like that because in his perfect reality he’s straight. Kirk is never fully out to himself and he’s never been able to accept that part of himself that loves Spock romantically. So, that’s why we don’t see Spock in the Nexus with Kirk. Kirk uses the Nexus to live the “perfect” life he thinks he SHOULD have, not the one he desires.

Hi!

I'm an undergraduate student writing a dissertation about the relation between autism, autism representation and the Star Trek fandom. I would appreciate if you could fill out my questionnaire.

I appreciate any help I can get, feel free to share it with others!

Wersja polska (Polish version): https://forms.gle/Kw2JgEVuFXQGUAF69

EDIT: the questionnaire is now closed!

[spocks-husband]

This is an insane headcanon but.

Ra's was obviously one of those parents who didn't let his kid watch cartoons-- but he did let her watch Star Trek, because it's a show about a utopian, eco-friendly socialist society, of course he would; if she's gonna have any degenerate consumerist television at least let it be that.

Talia, being a teenage girl with no other media allowed in her life apart from training manuals and the like, fixates on the franchise for YEARS.

And that is the real reason she looks like this as a teenager in The Knight.

She cut her hair to look Vulcan and you cannot convince me otherwise.

[pavel-chekov-appreciator]

When I’m not writing fix-it fics where everything is beautiful and nothing hurts, I like to think that, after Generations, Picard is the one who goes to Spock and explains to him what happened to Jim.

They’ve met before. They’ve melded before.

Picard melded with Sarek too.

They melded for a long time, while Sarek was very unstable, and Picard can never, ever forget it.

He’s integrated that experience as well as he could. He’s had a lot of practice integrating other people’s memories. He is Picard, and he is Locutus, and he is Sarek, and he is Kamin. But, usually, mostly, he is Picard.

But there’s a part of him that looks at Spock, never mind that Spock is older than him, and mentally calls him “son”.

Spock deserves to know what happened.

He deserves whatever closure he can get.

So Picard doesn’t just tell him what happened. He offers for them to meld again, and Spock experiences it, sees it, sees Jim die, and it’s painful and heart wrenching and awful but it’s so, so important.

He needed that. Needed to know.

Picard gave him a gift, the chance to see Jim one last time.

Picard has twice now ferried him memories from his deceased loved ones. He asks him not to continue making a habit of it, and it takes a moment for Picard to realize that Spock was making a joke.

Spock’s face is stoic, but his tears flow freely.

Picard understands.

Star Trek TNG Men Reacting to a Sudden Confession! (x M!Reader)(mutual pining)

(Worf, Data, Will, Picard, Geordi)

Worf

Surprised, but very confused and refuses to show it

Mentally freaking out but physically stoic, rejects you at first- then asks to think about it- then accepts your feelings about three days later.

Asks if you are joking initially and orders you back to your station, but you stay in his mind for every waking moment(and asleep moment!) thinking about how a human/klingon romance would work between two men... two men kissing... battling for dom-"YES WORF SPEAKING WHAT IS NEEDED?"

Data

"as an artificial intelligence bot, I-" chat GPT aa

Curious and asks a bunch of questions (how did you know you were in love? What made you confess? What about me drew you to romantic attraction?)

Would accept your feelings and offer a trial relationship period to see and study how people act in romantic situations- after all, that information is hard to come by!

Will/Riker

RizzLord96 over here with a charming smile and a witty remark to your confession. If he's in the mood, he'll kiss your hand and remark about he knew he still had it.

He gives "fuck on the first date" energy, so just like... be prepared?

He'd call you cute for confessing and charms you to death with flirty remarks but mentally freaking about how to handle this.

Picard

maaaan rip this man will insta reject you even if he likes you back. He's so sacrificial that he'll tell you "it's for the greater good"

Just know that you're all he thinks about.

You're like a plague in his mind, a fever he can't sweat out. Definitely regrets his actions for a long while when you give him longing stares from across the hallways.

Geordi

Probably the most chill out of the group ngl a "really? Me?" and a "Wow, I never expected you to like me back, man."

little shy smiles from across the room and awkward waves, lunch minidates where you two lowkey dance around actually flirting but the mutual affection is clear as day to anyone who sees you two

secret Lore

RIP TO LORE HE HAS NEVER ENCOUNTERED THIS BEFORE

"Oh! Of course I knew this was coming. It was obviously written all over your face." (he did not know and it's burning up his wires inside that he's flustered)

short circuits a little bit but acts all high and mighty about "seducing" you so easily.

[null-doesnothing]

so like Star Trek: The Next Generation episode Datalore, amiright guys???

(really shittily put together meme I made btw LMAOAOA)

Olympic Class idea

Had a (non-canon) idea about the Olympic class - what if it could saucer separate...

The two parts of the ship

Sphere - holds the warp core & associated systems, nacelles, general engineering, bridge, crew quarters, and crew facilities

Module - Hospital that can be sealed off from the main ship (in case of contagions). It has a shuttlebay to receive medical shuttles, docking ports for ships. Also probably a lot of transporters.

Why separate? Sometimes a hospital must remain in orbit of a planet for quite a long time. Why not have the drive do something else in the mean time.

The Sphere could dock with other modules

Colony Module - carries all the colonists, supplies, construction material etc. When delivered to site, the module becomes an orbiting space station, providing docking and transporter systems for supply ships.

Cargo Module - either bulk freight, or specialised hazardous material such as Neutronic Fuel. Ships going "where no one has gone before" need resupply now and again in the field rather than turn around and head back home for supplies.

Science Stations - manned or unmanned, easier to build at a construction facility than on-site near that black hole you want to study

Sensor Pods - the Olympic sphere could accompany science ships with large mission specific sensor pods. Planet scanning MRI machines for example. [side note: this is what I think the Oberth has - a large uninhabited sensor pod. Held away from the ship due to dangerous emissions. It was meant to be scanning the entire planet, not just surface scans.]

With separation, the Olympic goes from a single purpose to a flexible multi-purpose support ship.

In these pictures, it looks as if the mount for the nacelles struts is resting on top of the long body module.

The original model blueprints for the ship model had different nacelles - perhaps the sphere section had an in-universe refit.

If you wanted to modernise / refit an Olympic ship, taking out the one ship does not prevent the modules beings used by another Olympic in the meantime.
