Fake Voyager Episode: Tuvok gets kidnapped and forced to compete in an arena where telepaths fight one another to the death for a shot at fortune and prestige. He was initially kidnapped as 'fodder' - the aliens who run the arena will grab any telepathic alien they can find regardless of skill and they're essentially just there to be killed by flashier veterans of the bloodsport. The episode is mainly Tuvok showing off his tactical know-how and combat skills. We also get several flashbacks to him as a young man, learning how to fight both on Vulcan and in Starfleet. There's a concern that he will lose himself when forced into this seemingly endless battle, surrounded by violence, but in the end he prevails and manages to escape without killing a single person. He leaves the arena after giving a message of peace. Patreon | Ko-fi
Unnamed Goon: [Laughter] That puny 'Vuulcan' didn't land a single hit for all his bluster. Once I sealed his telepathic powers it was over! Huh huh huh… If I keep up this pace I should have him crushed beneath my fists in- What...? I can't move...? Tuvok: By now you have surely noticed it.
You are certainly a formidable opponent. Most would assume you to be a simple bruiser but that is not the case. You are a knowledgeable telepath - able to not only bolster your own physique but nullify the telepathic capabilities of your enemies.
However. You rely too much on one tactic and are too proud to allow yourself to look 'weak.' This was the ultimate cause of your ruination. While you gleefully battered my body about the field I was able to locate twenty two out of twenty four 'kobat sfek' on your body - points which will render you immobile for approximately…four minutes. More than enough time. It was a shrewd precaution to nullify my telepathic ability. However. I do not need them to best you in combat.
Even now, I am ten times stronger than you. Unnamed Goon: T-Ten...TEN TIMES!? [Imagining the sort of gruesome end that might await him, the unnamed Goon faints - leaving Tuvok the victor.]

New trek writers are like i know how to write vulcans and then i watch them nearly maim themselves trying to eek out a narrative that only has the depth and weight of a saltine cracker.
Like Voyager GAVE you the groundwork to understand the vulcans. Its not that they do not have fun or lack emotions its that they feel so much they have to keep total control of it and direct themselves with rationale/logic. They have an entire culture based around doing CBTherapy on themselves bc they want to live normal lives instead of being subjected to their brains chemistry overload like. Its not hard. We have books. We have books to understand these things and maybe if you like, thought abt writing them as a people instead of a mascot animal you could make a show stick a landing without its legs shattering into a billion pieces

I am also partial to B'Elanna/Seven. Actually just B'Elanna in general. She's so neat. Rotating her around in my mind. Women in STEM.
First ever ship: Oh that's really hard. I think most of my fandom interaction before the past year or so has been pretty mild. So I guess my current ones are my first? LOL.

Currently Watching: Lots of Star Trek, but specifically what little of Renegades is available to me. Tim Russ!! :D It's on YouTube, and was very interesting to read about the context behind its development.
Currently consuming: Lots and lots of salt n' vinegar chips. And an appropriate amount of water to go with them.
Currently craving: CAPRISUNS. :(
Tags! do it if you want to! :D so sorry I don't usually do these so I'm lost on the etiquette for who to tag. Here are some people. This is my offering.

Thess vs the Desert
Well, I seem to have aimed a bit for POSEIDON without really meaning to, but it's been quite the ride thus far.
LAST NIGHT
Hmmkay, what've we got this way? Ooh, a settlement.
...Well, fuck you too.
"Hair like blood", huh? That's ... a descriptor. I guess.
You ... pen the machines and slaughter them that way, huh? HAEPHESTUS probably doesn't like that very much... Yeah, see? You guys are such efficient hunters you get Thunderjaws thrown at you. Yes, I will help.
So ... yeah, I heard something about this from the flood people - you have to trade machine parts for water that's not polluted? This is some Immortan Joe bullshit, right here.
Right. None of this right here is too onerous. No Thunderjaw yet. This here is just a Tuesday, frankly.
(I mean, literally. It is Tuesday.)
So ... "bagged and tagged" means to bury with honours here? That's actually kind of fascinating. Because what it means in the real is just "put in body bag and tie a tag to the toe to identify them", but because they all wear dog tags... Huh. I do love how the Cradle people worked out things based on a combination of religion and really basic anthropology.
Wait. The Tenakth -- the TENakth -- call on the Ten. I checked, and it's not branches of military, unless they added more in this world's future / past / whatever. Hmm. How many subordinate functions does GAIA have? ...Nine. And GAIA makes ten. Clever.
Right. Onward to get your fellow hunters their honourable burial-- Oh, hey, you got a survivor! Great!
Yes. That is a Thunderjaw. Now stop yelling at me I am hiding in this bush for a reason.
Gun gone, gun gone ... Thunderjaw gone without firing off a shot.
Oh, you want me to go on ahead with the hearts? You're trusting me big time. But I guess since I just two-shotted a Thunderjaw for you, that's fair.
I'mma hunt those Frost Bellowbacks first. Sorry not sorry.
And see? I barely just beat you here with your injured comrade.
Oh. You think something bad is going on in your capital whatever. And having to pay that kind of premium for potable water wasn't enough? Yes, fine, I will meet you there later but I kinda need some Tallnecks first.
Also ... hi, Tuvok.
Right. Gonna edge my way south a bit for a few more campfires and... Ooh. Question mark. What is--? Oh. Oseram camp.
Ah. You were waiting on those folks on the other side of the mountains. Yeaaaaaaah that didn't go well. I'll help you deal with that tomorrow.
THIS MORNING
Right. Going to go track what happened to the rest of that dude's crew.
Rumble rumble-- This is going to end with a Rockbreaker, isn't it.
Alas, poor Lunda. Also ... yep. Rockbreaker.
There is some shiny down here. Hope Porguf doesn't mind my having hit this place first. Well, if he does, that's his problem. I've got Burrowers and a probably-Rockbreaker to deal with.
Aha! Way out! ...Wait, did I just get trapped in-- No, there's enough room to sneak through the gap that's left.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeep. Rockbreaker. Sneak. In. Quietly.
Okay. I am concealed in a high place. SHOW YOURSELF, YOU SUBTERRANEAN ANNOYANCE-ENGINE!
Theeeeeeeeeeeere you are. Okay. This might get spicy. POONK.
...
......
.........I. Just. One-shotted it.
I JUST ONE-SHOTTED A ROCKBREAKER AND THEREFORE WIN AT EVERYTHING!
Right. More shinies and ... yes, Porguf, you can have your lockbox back.
Aloy, only you would consider "vertically up a mountain" to be a 'shortcut'.
And now that I've mastered gliding, I can-- SUNWINGS SHIT INTO A BUSH.
Okay, there's you dealt with. I'll turn in this quest and see what I have to climb for the Tallneck--
What do you mean, "it looks damaged"?!?
Right. Porguf, here. I'll be back after I look at that apparently damaged Tallneck and maybe take out a rebel outpost or something.
Oseram have been trying to take down a Tallneck?!? Ambitious little buggers, I'll give you Oseram weirdoes that, but HAEPHESTUS clearly is not a fan of their plans. But I need to do the same idiocy that got you dipshits killed so I can fix your dipshittery.
Okay ... one anchor, and we get Burrowers. Bye, Burrowers.
Two anchors, aaaaaaand ... Sunwings.
YES I KNOW I COULD USE THE BALLISTA ON THE SMALLER MACHINES, BUT I DON'T WANT TO! THESE THINGS HAVE NO PRECISION!
Huh. Bellowback. ...Acid Bellowback, in point of fact. New scan, huzzah. Now, lemme pop you like a pimple-- Theeeeeeeeere we go.
Okay, those are impressive when they go down.
Aaaaaand reboot! Huzzah! BEGONE, FOG OF WAR!
Right. I probably do have time to hit a rebel outpost but I do not have the energy to do so. I need to save spoons for work. So lemme clear these Burrowers out of my way, set up at this shelter, and I can deal with other stuff later or tomorrow or whatever.
I do not know what's been waking me so damn early lately. Maybe I need thicker curtains. Eh, at least it gives me "wake up to the Forbidden West" time...

*BORGS YOUR TALAXIAN*
since there is as far as i know no canon mirrorverse neelix, the concept here is that in the mirror universe the borg assimilated talaxians, leading to this immortan joe-esque version of neelix...
then of course that lead to the thought of, naturally the borg would influence the assimilated talaxians, BUT it would be really FUN if the influence also ran the other way... so neelix retains his mad max vibes, but in a much more dangerous way...!! he also retains his cultural love of wild patterns.
kes is also around. i don't have a design nailed down yet but i think she's immune to borg assimilation... but still a very valuable ally for borg!neelix. stay tuned for more, maybe

I’d like to know, who’s your favorite crewmen/important character from each series? If you want to! Sorry if you’ve already answered this somewhere, I scrolled your tag and didn’t see it, but the tumblr search function is terrible so I’m reluctant to place faith in it.
I haven’t done something like this yet, so thanks for the challenge! Gonna go in chronological in-universe order, since that’s closest to the order I watched them in:
ENT: This one is a close call between Hoshi and T’Pol but at the end of the day I’ve gotta say it’s Hoshi. She’s my personal hero and so amazing!
DISCO 1-2: Michael Burnham, hands down. She’s the most relatable character to me personally. The guilt complex she has? Oh wow that’s me. Her compassion, her intelligence her determination to do the right thing even if it’s hard or unpopular, the way she makes mistakes but always tries to do better. I love her so so much.
AOS: this is the hardest. I love the AOS characters so much. It’s probably a threeway tie between Kirk, Spock and Uhura with Sulu and Gaila coming in hot on their tails.
SNW: T’Pring. Loved her in Amok Time. She’s great in SNW and I Can’t wait to see her dump Spock for Stonn. It’s gonna be a riot, I’m sure.
TOS/TAS: Gotta be Spock, of course.
TNG: Tasha Yar if she’d gotten more seasons 😢But probably Troi! I think she often gets overlooked, but her performance in “Face of Evil” especially was great. And I’m a sucker for telepathic characters who are half human/half alien and struggle with their parents.
DS9: Again, the DS9 cast is so great it’s really hard to pick just one, but I think I’m most obsessed with Sisko. He’s a really complex and unique character that so often gets overlooked, but he’s got so much going on. Surprised there aren’t reams of Saratoga fics for him when Michael’s got a good number of Shenzhou-Era fics for her. But maybe I’ll just have to write them myself.
VOY: a tie between Tuvok and B’Elanna. Tuvok is an excellent Vulcan character and I love Vulcans. And B’Elanna is another hybrid, which I’ve always found interesting.
LOW: Beckett Mariner! She’s a AOS-Kirk-Type party animal, but just like him, deep deep down she really cares about everyone and she only pushes people away because it’s a coping mechanism for trauma. There’s so much depth to her character and she’s one of Trek’s first openly bisexual characters, so that’s awesome!
PRO: Prodigy is still warming up, so it’s hard to say. But I think Gwyn is my favorite. She’s got so much angst potential in that backstory of hers. Going against her own dad who thinks he’s on a mission to save their people? I love it. So juicy.
PIC: Can I make everyone angry and say Narek? I was hoping he would come back but no, Picard writers hate me specifically.
DISCO 3-4 (it’s basically a different show): Michael again, if we’re being honest. But I also really like Rillak and T’Rina. More milf presidents, please!

Some Vulcan Headcanons
They have like no base in canon just things I thought about Vulcans most of them don’t have evidence either. Most of my Vulcan fanfics will probably be based off these headcanons, I’ll be adding and editing this post whenever I feel differently or think of new things~ 💕
* Vulcans can outrun humans with speed, however humans can outrun Vulcans by distance.
* Vulcans are better climbers
* Vulcans have death grips. Once they have you, it’s gonna be difficult to get away.
* They have slightly longer fingers, better for climbing!
* Vulcans can’t jump as high as a human can, however, it isn’t by much, a couple inches at most.
* Vulcans eat a lot more than they are shown. Even though they have slow metabolisms they have dense muscles that need lots of protein, luckily there are lots of high protein grains and vegetables on Vulcan.
* Ancient Vulcans were cave dwellers. The caves provided protections of predators and kept them cooler in the extreme heat of Vulcan.
* Due to the fact that the seas are small and in few numbers on Vulcan, most Vulcans cannot swim, however, in coastal towns, more of them have the knowledge on how to swim, but it seems most Vulcans still prefer to not to go for a dip. There is always the odd duck who loves to swim though.
* Before sonic showers, Vulcan use small bucks of water with a rag, or more commonly sand to bathe with
* Because of their muscles and flexibility, Vulcans don’t take a lot of fall damage, even a Vulcan child could fall from the a height that would easily kill a human and walk away with minor injuries
* Vulcan have very strong leg bones and muscles because of the slightly higher gravity than Earth
* Vulcans in the north prefer spicier food while people in the south prefer food with little, if any, spice. Humans to try the food are often stuck with something that seems boring to them, or just downright painful from the spice
* Because of their telepathic abilities, Vulcan babies need a lot of skin contact in their first few months after birth. It is not uncommon for a Vulcan mother or father to carry their infant child to their bare chest, even in public, usually tucked into their robes
* Because Vulcans are touch telepaths children get a sense of calm from their parents when they are in contact but also form familiar bonds, lack of touch can lead to malformation and damage to new neural networks in the infants brain
* Vulcan toddlers are volatile, they have yet to master their emotions and tend to throw fits over many things. Skin contact, such as hugging, holding and cuddling, from their parents usually calms them down. It’s common for children from ages 0-5 to sleep in their parent’s bed as they need near constant contact. During this time Vulcan parents begin to tech meditative practices such as hymns and monturas. As Vulcan children grow older, parents will begin to slowly step away from skin contact in exchange for led meditations
* On Vulcan, it is common practice for one of the parents to stay home and raise the child or children, however, if one of the parent die, close family such as grandparents or aunts and uncles will also help take care of the child or children.
* Young Vulcan children (5-12) do not completely suppress their emotions, they do however learn not to express them. Bullying, fighting, and rebellious behavior is not uncommon for this age group.
* For older Vulcan children (between 13-25) who have difficulty controlling their emotions, even with led meditations, the child is usually sent to a monastery for education.
* Vulcans aren’t fully mature until after the age of 30.
* Vulcans usually don’t experience Pon Farr until after the age of 30, usually between 30-35, but there has been some outliers. Some Vulcans can go through Pon Farr as early as 26 and as old as 40, but this is uncommon and usually means there is a health problem.
* Both male and female Vulcans go through Pon Farr.
* I don’t care what anyone tells me, Vulcans do and will have sex outside of Pon Farr.
* Vulcan ear shape is hereditary. The more curved ears you see on Spock, Sarek, Taurik are less common than the flat ears you see on T’Pol and Tuvok
* Vulcans with light colored eyes tend to have bad vision and worsens with age. They tend to spend more time inside because the sun can be unbearable at times. But Vulcans with light colored eyes can see in the dark better than Vulcans with dark colored eyes. Light colored eyes was a mutation that only accrued after urbanization of Vulcan.
* Vulcans are cold to the touch, like someone who has been outside without a coat in winter. Because they’re naturally cooler Vulcans don’t need to sweat to keep cool. If ancient Vulcans got too hot they could move into caves to cool down.
* Young Vulcans (under the age of 10) and old Vulcans (over the age of 130) have a difficult time keeping warm. On modern Vulcan it is fixed with indoor heating and cooling.
* Vulcan has many hot springs, most of which are underground, and are popular. However most tourists, such a humans, cannot use them as most are too hot.
* Vulcans have two different types of robes. Robes they wear during the day that keep them cool, and robes for night to keep them warm.
* The silk that Vulcans robes are made of are actually from a plant. The plant produces a silk like substance that is sticky to prevent animals from eating it. It’s very strong and ancient Vulcans scrapped the silk from the plants and ate them. Modern day Vulcans grow these plants near the seas in the north and far south near the pole.
* Other Vulcan clothing is made from wool from an animal that is similar to sheep and alpaca. Their wool is usually use to make evening wear. The wool also used in the making of blankets, pillows, and rugs
* The soles of Vulcans shoes are usually made from a hard woody root, which were better for walking on rock. Vulcan shoes can also be made from a type grass that is common on Vulcan, which are better for walking in sand. Shoes for military are made from rubber.
* The reason why Vulcans in tos have all kind of different hair styles is because at that time period Vulcan youth wanted to rebel against common standers, it’s also why T’Pring did not wear a traditional Vulcan wedding dress.
* It’s common for Vulcan women to cover their hair, whether it be long or short. Not only does it keep their hair clean from sand but it also protects their head from the sun.
* There is actually a wide variety of fashion on Vulcan, differing types of robes, dresses, and suits. Most common colors are usually neutrals but silvers, blues, purples, and greens are common in the south while golds, reds, oranges, and yellows are more common in the north.
* The common Vulcan bowlcut, humans call it, is more common in the government and military of Vulcan. The short hair is easy to maintain and keep care of. Many Vulcan citizens has varying hairstyles and most depend on what region they live in. It is not uncommon for Vulcan men and women to have long hair, especially if they do not work in manual labor.
* Most Vulcan men shave their faces. There are many reasons for it, such as, it’s cleaner, easier to maintain, keeps them cooler, and it looks more professional.
* When it comes to body hair, it is 50/50 on who shaves. The area around the reproductive organs are usually maintained but not shaved, as for legs, arms, and under arms, some areas it is more common to save than others. Young Vulcan men usually shave their chest, but as they get older is more uncommon.
* Vulcan women have on occasion worn makeup. Buying makeup on Vulcan is uncommon, many women on Vulcan grow plants that can be use for make up such as flowers that can be ground for lipstick or a crushed leaf for rouge. These plants usually have other uses such as medical or as food.
* Sehlats are not the only pets Vulcans keep. They also keep small rodents and occasionally a ferret like animal too.
* Vulcan pet names are usually old Vulcan names no one uses anymore or names of monsters or animals from ancient Vulcan literature.
* Sehlats aren’t fed meat, but instead high protein grain and vegetables and eggs. Sehlats are naturally omnivores but the need for meat was bred out of thousands of years.

I think about the ending of gravity a lot. So there’s Tuvok and there’s Noss, the love interest of the week, and the whole episode is about how Tuvok won’t allow himself to feel the same way that Noss feels towards him for a whole variety of reasons, but they’ve been left alone and they’re talking about how they wished things could’ve been different and Tuvok moves closer and closer to her and I always think he’s going to kiss her, but instead he mind melds with her, the classic Tuvok go to move, and that’s how they end things. I’ve always thought it was nice that they never tried to undermine the fact that he’s a Vulcan; of course he’s not going to kiss her first of all that’s not how they kiss and second of all he wouldn’t kiss her because that’s just not who he is. And I think the reason this sticks with me is that t’pol was never given the same treatment. She’s always doing the human things, kissing, holding hands, etc etc. Now the argument could be made that because she’s in a relationship with a human that it’s only natural that she take up some human tendencies, but it never goes both ways. Trip never does anything vulcan to show his affection. It’s always t’pol giving in, it’s always t’pol being further and further divorced from being written as a Vulcan. Even when she’s dreaming about getting it on with another Vulcan, it’s just a bunch of making out and two people with no chemistry awkwardly rubbing each other under strategically placed sheets. She doesn’t get a mind meld moment with anyone. She doesn’t get anything
