The first sister, from the book of the same name by Linden A. Lewis.
It’s what at the what now?
That sounds terrifying they fight to the death during pon farr
anyone want to go to the bar? it’s Fuck-Or-Die Friday and I wanna do one of those things, doesn’t matter which
There's no such thing as "out of character" in star trek. You could have one of the characters try to stage a coup in one episode and everything's fine by the end because it turns out they accidentally flew the ship through a nebula that makes you want to stage a coup really bad
they learnt swing dancing but then became annoying as fuck at every social function. they don’t notice though they’re having too much fun

Hell, I don’t know what he’d do without you

Come on, Nog, tell me. Why is it so damned important for you to get into Starfleet?
requested by bengiyo
[ID: a gifset from Deep Space 9, showing Sisko and Nog talking.
Nog: “Because I don’t want to end up like my father.”
Sisko: “Your father.”
Nog: “That’s right. My father. He’s been chasing profit his whole life. And what has it gotten him? Nothing. And you know why? Because he hasn’t got the lobes. And neither do I.”
Sisko: “And a Ferengi without a profit…”
Nog: “…is no Ferengi at all.”
Sisko: “The eighteenth Rule of Acquisition.”
Nog: “My father’s a mechanical genius. He could have been chief engineer of s starship if he’d had the opportunity. But he went into business instead, like a good Ferengi. The only thing is, he’s not a good Ferengi… not when it comes to profit. So now all he has to live for is the chance that someday, somehow, he might be able to take over my uncle’s bar. Well I’m not going to make the same mistake. I want to do something with my life… something worthwile.”
Sisko: “Like joining Starfleet.”
Nog: “I know I’ve got something to offer, I just need a chance to prove it.” end ID.]
I'm not exaggerating when I say that every time Picard dressed in civvies in tng he reinvented fashion
Supporting evidence right here.
books read in 2020: wilder girls by rory power (★★★☆☆)
it was my mother's idea and my father just nodded and went to sit in another room. silence all that summer until they put me in a car headed for raxter. nobody there will know, I told myself. nobody will know what you do when you're bored. what you do just because you can.
When ensign tuvok said “Ever since I entered the Academy, I've had to endure the egocentric nature of humanity. You believe that everyone in the galaxy should be like you, that we should share your sense of humor and your human values." He was right and he should’ve said it
every time i see the dumb ass duo i whoop and cheer
dreadshredder
julian and miles separately: invents successful new medical procedures once a week for fun, efficiently keeps a massive, chronically self-sabotaging alien space station operational every day during wartime
julian and miles together: if we walk into quark’s single file we can surely trick him into only charging us for 1 holosuite ticket
can u believe we all fucking love THIS ^^^ show
“Damn it Jim, he nearly sliced your tits off!”
“I know, Bones, and is it weird that I found it kind of hot?”
is.
is this real?
The screenshot is, the caption is not. In the actual episode it was more like “hey our closest friend is gonna die if he doesn’t fuck and since he can’t do that why don’t you slip me a shit ton of morphine so he can strangle me to death which is the next best thing”
His titties got cut in an extremely horny death battle with said friend on a planet of grumpy elves who have elaborate rituals for everything including fucking (especially fucking).

i think ds9 could have done more jokes about the fact that bajorans worship the prophets and ferengi essentially worship profit and that “prophet” and “profit” are homophones
trekmemes
leeta: oh so you love the Prophets? that’s wonderful!
rom: yes!! Profits are very important to our culture!
the best part of Garak constantly being accused of being a spy is that like... he is a spy, he is definitely spying on everyone, but due to nobody trusting or liking him he’s not spying FOR anyone. he does it for the mayhem.
you truly do not exist for other ppl’s consumption and your existence is not hinged on making others happy and comfortable by stifling and hiding and crushing and editing parts of yourself to be less than who you really are
Loving the idea of earth cryptids/folklore monsters being real only the humans have no idea until after first contact.
Vulcans: Our scientists have questions about the small nocturnal portion of your population that drinks blood and appears virtually immortal. Is there a name for this sub-species?
Humans: THE WHAT?!?!?
