Okay it’s time to #TrekThoseStars. A Klingon is telling a far fetched battle story. Everyone is quietly raising skepticism with their friends. And then Miles says “but he tells it well!” There it is, found the Irishman
I love Kor. This episode is “The Sword of Kahless”, which autocorrect wants me to spell as Kathleen. And now I want a D&D campaign called “The Sword of Kathleen” #TrekThoseStars
I like that in DS9 they start to ease off the darkening makeup for Klingon skin on white actors, which kiiiind of approached blackface at times on TNG. Kor is more gray-tinged along his forehead than brown #TrekThoseStars
I love how you meet Worf and you think oh, Klingons are all just really stiff, awkward, emotionally constipated guys and then it turns out no, that’s just him #TrekThoseStars
And yeah they are all obsessed with honor and have a pretty quick temper, but he’s EXTRA. Because he feels like he has something to prove. #TrekThoseStars
Other Klingons aren’t as literal-minded as Worf. I feel like there are probably a lot of people who headcanon Worf as on the autistic spectrum #TrekThoseStars
And right now he is VERY happy to be holding his ultimate collectible, the bat’leth of Kahless #TrekThoseStars
Kor is now mad Worf didn’t kill a boy for his family honor once upon a time. Klingon culture is so STRESSFUL #TrekThoseStars
Huh. Worf, I don’t know about this...becoming the Emperor plan #TrekThoseStars
Dax is so done with dealing with these two #TrekThoseStars
I don’t think priceless historical artifacts should be shot into space personally but Klingon culture IS pretty weird #TrekThoseStars
Now for an episode I’ve been looking forward to, Our Man Bashir. This is off to an INCREDIBLE start #TrekThoseStars
Garak: “you usually won’t shut the fuck up so when you wouldn’t tell me about your new game I got curious”
#TrekThoseStars
#TrekThoseStars
Okay, there is...zero heterosexual explanation for any of this. He LITERALLY forgot about the hot girl he was trying to seduce because his crush showed up #TrekThoseStars
I have never shipped anything so hard in my LIFE #TrekThoseStars
Oh my god this is so embarrassing Julian #TrekThoseStars
Oh no not a transporter malfunction, these never happen #TrekThoseStars
SCREAMING at Kira showing up as a Russian femme fatale. I love when Nana Visitor gets to play. @alketrolyat is currently yelling that it’s a reference to Visitor’s aunt, Cyd Charisse, in Silk Stockings #TrekThoseStars
Love to be ordered to keep playing pretend so my friends won’t die, but now everyone on the ship knows I’m playing pretend currently #TrekThoseStars
The James Bond-esque names are killing me. Honey Bare!!
And oh my god here comes Miles. I yell-laughed so loud I startled the cat #TrekThoseStars
And oh my god here comes Miles. I yell-laughed so loud I startled the cat #TrekThoseStars
Why can you turn the holosuite safeties off at all?? Why is that a thing? This is NEVER a good idea #TrekThoseStars
“Throuple here to see Dr. Noah, please” #TrekThoseStars
I love the seasons-long slow reveal on this show that Julian is actually just a huge fuckin nerd #TrekThoseStars
They must have had SUCH a good time making the sets and props for this episode. It’s so perfect #TrekThoseStars
Is this...how science works?? #TrekThoseStars
Garak’s face when Julian starts flirting with Honey/Dax to try to escape...INCREDIBLE #TrekThoseStars
THE BOND VERSION OF THE THEME MUSIC I’M— #TrekThoseStars
Garak, shot by Julian: equally freaked out and aroused #TrekThoseStars
Julian remembering every word Garak yelled at him......gay #TrekThoseStars
That was truly excellent television #TrekThoseStars
