A lot of her is me. I`ve had this broad under my belt for five years. I own her – and nobody can tell me that I don`t own her. I love every single dimension and component of her being. Her nobility, her flawed character, her laughter, her love of the absurd, her love of the unknown, her love of science… I`ve loved her great heart, her formidable spirit, her guts. She has a much better mind than mine, and a gifted imagination as well, but she`s a little prickly, and certainly not without ego. She has this profound sense of humanity: she can talk to anybody and they listen.
Happy Birthday Kate Mulgrew! April 29, 1955

“Ouch!” Naomi tucked her feet under herself and glared at the kitten, who looked rather put out that the toes he had been attacking were no longer in reach.
“The animal requires rest now,” Seven said. “It should be sleeping.”
“Well tell him, not me,” Naomi said. “I was just sitting here.”
Seven looked at the wriggling beast with growing unease on her face. “The biological library information provided by the Antelorians clearly stated the amount of active play time required for a feline of this age, and this kitten has now exceeded that amount by seventeen minutes.”
“It’s not a computer. I don’t think you can predict those things down to the minute.” A few years ago, Naomi might have hesitated before correcting Seven of Nine, tertiary adjunct of unimatrix zero-one, possessor of encyclopedic knowledge and an attitude that was… well, a little scary, before Naomi got to know her.
Seven glared at the kitten. The kitten apparently didn’t find her scary at all, because he ignored her and started pouncing on the edge of Naomi’s shadow. “I am not prepared to indulge the unscheduled whims of this life form,” she said.
Naomi extended one foot again toward the kitten to give it something real to wrestle. It didn’t hurt that much. Then she got an idea: “If you don’t want it,” she said, turning her face up to Seven with the pleading look that had won her a spot on three recent Delta Flyer adventures, “you can tell the captain to take it away. It’s okay that I’ve never had a pet. I’m sure it’s not critical to my emotional development.”
“My research into early childhood development suggests that it is… beneficial to have a dependent lower life form present.”
Naomi grinned. She knew that someday she’d be able turn Seven of Nine’s library computer obsession to her advantage. “Okay. Can we name him Three of Three?” She indicated with her finger that the three of them were a complete unit. Having a pet was one thing, but having a pet with Seven of Nine was even better.
Seven looked like she was going to object, so Naomi made the face again.
Seven reached out one silver-tipped finger to stroke the kitten’s head. “I do not believe the captain will approve of our giving this creature a Borg designation, but… the captain does not need to know.”

*Star Trek theme music plays*
Stands up with my hand over my heart “Ah, the song of my people”
#i feel this way about the ds9 theme#like it’s my national anthem#it sounds like one (via gloriousunderstanding)
Can you imagine if they played the DS9 theme in the place of the Federation anthem in “Take Me Out To The Holosuite”? Just no explanation, no winking at the camera, just played it with their hands over their hearts.
The Niners would understand.
I was literally just getting my hard drive out to mess with some clips and make this happen, and then I remembered that the DS9 theme was actually the piece of Bajoran classical music from Sanctuary (or at least the two were incredibly similar.)
But to be fair I could totally see the crew adopting a beloved piece of Bajoran music as the station’s unofficial anthem.

if you’re struggling with homework, just pretend it’s for starfleet.
biology? no no, xenobiology. for when you’re on the enterprise and you have to examine flora and fauna of newly discovered planets
math? more like super important warp calculations
physics? gotta be like chekov hell yeah
english? no it’s a report for starfleet command
learning a language? channel nyota uhura
gotta pop open a torpedo im really weapons expert carol marcus
My homework is about baking, though. Am I a replicator programmer?
Yes. You will soon have a very promising career collecting and inventing new recipes for the replicator, which will eventually lead to a prominent catering position for those special occasions when replicated food isn’t good enough. This will lead to you cater several starfleet diplomatic functions in the era of your choice. Probably the crew of your choice will be at one of them. The harder you study, the more you impress Julian or Data or whoever with the quality of your pastry.
Does that work?
… Why in the world does Starfleet need an essay over Life of Pi?
I CAN ANSWER THIS QUESTION. I CAN TOTALLY ANSWER THIS QUESTION.
Okay, so, there’s this new alien species right? And they are super confused about human literature. It does not make sense to them. They just don’t see why you have to write down things that aren’t real! And there’s all this hidden meaning and stuff?? What the heck, they say. So you are part of a task force organized to write huge numbers of essays over famous works of Earth literature which are geared specifically towards this alien species. This assignment will help you land a better post once you graduate the Academy, because you’ll already have experience in interxenocultural relations.
Make that alien understand Life of Pi, cadet. Only you can do it.
Why does Starfleet need me to pretend that the way economists fuck up at math is rigorous?
You have to try to understand Ferengi thought about economics. I know it’s hard, cadet! Federation-style socialism just makes so much more sense! But if we do not understand the Ferengi economists this diplomatic mission will fall through!

#Star Trek #DS9 #…oh my god

[When my husband started playing Star Trek Online, he mentioned you can go to Empok Nor. My first thought was to wonder if Keevan’s body is STILL running into the bulkhead.]
That never crossed my mind lol. Though I’m thinking maybe the Jem’hadar who had been flying around the station picked it up and disposed of it somehow…
isn’t covenant in s7 set on empok nor? it might not be but i’m like 90% sure it is, and, well, i like to imagine dukat sort of just standing there officiously trying to get his attention for a bit and then just getting a cultist to dispose of him when he realises what’s going on.
Covenant is definitely set on Empok Nor, and now I need crackfic of Dukat and the Bajoran cultists discovering Keevan.
(It would have been semi-hilarious if they could’ve been all “well, let’s just leave him there as a…talking point/tourist attraction/mascot and then Covenant featured a very tall extra in Vorta makeup walking into a bulkhead in a background shot at some point, but I have the feeling that the writers probably forgot about Keevan by that point.)
…although, wait, wouldn’t Keevan’s body be rather corpsified and gross at that point? I guess that you could technobabble up whatever they did to remote-control him also ended up preserving him, but…now I’m imagining at least one of those Bajoran cultists going “…uh never mind, I’m outta here” after being greeted by the sight of a zombie Vorta walking into a bulkhead upon their arrival at Empok Nor, and Dukat desperately trying to spin it into some kind of good omen. Yeah, this is definitely the stuff that crackfic is made of.
