/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Pike: Am I and my hair a joke to you?

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Fabulous hair aside, he and Spock didn't get enough time in that era to "hit it off" like Kirk/Spock.

I mean, slash fiction exists because of those 2.

And honestly, that early Spock was a very different character. He came off as way more "alien."

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

They still had to work out a few kinks early on, if you know what I mean.

I do appreciate how SNW gave added dimension to the TOS episode with Pike in the chair. You really get why Spock was willing to disobey orders and risk his career for him.

Spock literally, constantly friendzones Jim. EVEN IN THE QUOTE YOU CHANGED.

"I have been... and always shall be... your friend."

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Sure, but the fun of it is that for almost as long as Trek has existed, others have had fun speculating the "what if" between them.

hey, by all means rub the dolls together and make kissy sounds, doesn't change anything for me, I already made the joke at your expense
