So no shade to Discovery or Picard but the main reason I think I’m loving Strange New Worlds is because they seem to know that yes, Star Trek is about high minded discussions of ethics, philosophy and human nature (not to mention the Drama) but it is also about Shenanigans. Tomfoolery. The kind of hijinks you’d half expect to see out of a fan fic.
Shakespeare wouldn’t be Shakespeare without the dick jokes and Star Trek just isn’t Star Trek to me without the kind of vibe where, with a straight face, the plot involves body swapping, tribbles, weird Klingon bachelor parties, sex pollen, or saving the day with the power of rock music.

Babs Olusanmokun: We have known each other for a while. And they’ve been on some adventures together. But I don’t want to specify what those adventures may be as you know, as that might be a spoiler. But there’s definitely a backstory of respect for each other’s work, for engagement, for having spent time together in more adverse circumstances. And I think that informs their relationship. So it’s from a deeper familial point of view when he says, “You’re my favorite.”

If the sun never comes up, you find a way to live without it. -Caitlyn Siehl, It Ends or it Doesn't
[Image IDs: Nine images. (1) Text that reads: 'It ends or it doesn't.' / Una: What are you keeping in there that could be worth all our lives?/ M’Benga: Not what. Who. Rukiya. My daughter. // David McCoy (barely audible): Leonard. / McCoy: I'm here, Dad. I'm with you. (2) Two images in black and white. One of M'Benga's daughter, Rukiay. The other of McCoy's dad, David. (3) text that reads: 'That's what you say. That's how you get through it.' / McCoy: All my knowledge and I can't save him. // M’Benga: I am chief medical officer. On the flagship of Starfleet. You'd think I'd be able to do something about it. But nothing worked.' (4) text that reads: 'The tunnel, the night, the pain, the love. It ends or it doesn't. / Sybok: You've done all you can. The support system will keep him alive. / McCoy:  You call this alive? Suspended between life and death by a bridge of pain? // M’Benga: Did you know there's no limit on how long you can store someone's pattern in the buffer? You just have to materialize them regularly. In the buffer, my daughter doesn't age. And her disease can't progress.' (5) Two images. One of McCoy, looking down at his dying dad. His expression in pained. The other is of M'Benga, who's expression is also pained. (6) text that reads: 'Adapt. Adjust.  / M’Beng: …the light virus epidemic was my fault. / Una: It seems so, yes. / M’Benga: I can't endanger our crew for one life. No matter how much that life means to me. // David McCoy: Release…me / McCoy: I can't. (in agony) But how can I watch him suffer like this? / Sybok: You're a doctor. / McCoy: I'm his son!' (7) Text that reads 'It ends' followed by an image of McCoy looking down after his father dies. (8) 'Or it doesn't' followed by an image of Rukiya, alive and smiling at her father. (9) Text: 'We do not perish.' /End ID]

ok so it’s a tense scene in the enterprise sickbay.... idk maybe someone important got hurt like una or la’an it doesn’t really matter. m’benga is somewhere offscreen doing the surgery and captain pike is in the main sickbay area stressing out. maybe he looks really tired maybe he’s pacing relentlessly once again it doesn’t matter he’s just visibly freaked. chapel is also in sickbay doing some chores, maybe tending to the less injured people or just sorting through supplies or something like that. she’s also clearly anxious to hear the news but she has work to do and is trying to hide it.
maybe they make awkward conversation or just ignore each other for several excruciatingly long minutes. then, finally, the doors to the surgery room slide open and m’benga walks in quietly - they don’t notice him at first. 
“chris?” he asks
both of them comically leap to their feet and gasp “yes?!”

M'Benga 😭 I really hope the enterprise runs into the species capable of healing his daughter... I was so not expecting that.

Haven't had the chance to watch today's episode, but have they talked about why La'an and M'Benga did that swipe under the eye move in episode one? Or does anyone have any thoughts about it? I'm curious to see them interact more, but I pretty much feel that way about everyone, it was just an intriguing little exchange

I feel like Christine receives the Ian Malcolm “so preoccupied over whether you could that you never stopped to ask if you should” speech from M’Benga or Spock at least once quarterly.

Pike: You didn’t know it was raining?
M’Benga: In our defense, sir, we knew it was raining once it started to rain.
