Erica probably has the healthiest coping of the 3 though. Chapel just keeps it all inside and M’Benga does a little recreational murder. Gotta vent that stuff out babes.

What about Bones?

So sometimes I think about AOS vs TOS, and the biggest thing is that in TOS, Mcspirk is basically cannon. You cannot tell me those boys don’t love each other, it makes me crazy.

But in AOS, it’s just Spirk. Don’t get me wrong, I was a Spirk fan waaaaaay before I noticed Mcspirk in TOS, but I try to see the tension between anyone in shows I watch, I Jim and Bones just seemed like brothers. On the surface, this is just interesting, but what about Prime!Spock? (I’m gonna call him Selek)

Because he knew Jim and Leonard since his 30s. In this scenario, he dated them, basically married them. Hell, he’s t’hy’la with one and shared his katra with the other. He knows them. It’s the three of them.

So do you think he gets whiplash sometimes?

I bet he visits Jim and Spock, sometimes, especially after they start dating. And I wonder if one time they’re talking, and Bones walks in, and he’s expecting him to join in. To meld into the pair like his Leonard did. But instead he stands apart, like the friend that he is. I bet it’s heartbreaking, another reminder of what Selek’s lost.

Not only that, but what about Bones?

There’s an animatic somewhere on YouTube of Everything Stays where it compared AOS and TOS, and it pointed out to me that in the Kelvin timeline, there’s no nurse Chapel, and it got me thinking.

Not only do we not see Nurse Chapel, but I don’t remember there being a Doctor M’Benga either. So he has none of his original work friends in the sickbay. Well, he still has Jim and Spock, to an extent.

But what about Joanna?

We hear about Jocelyn in the shuttle, how his wife took the whole damned planet in the divorce, but does that include his daughter? The crew are significantly younger in AOS, does he even have her? Just how lonely is Bones?

I think about Leonard McCoy a lot.

I would just like to thank the SNW lighting crew for making sure everyone, especially dark skinned actors like Babs Olusanmokun (M’Bengas actor) is well lit. Not only for basic scenes or in broad daylight but in moody, artistic lights as well even with actors of different complexions

Christine just lying on the fly to protect Joseph. Not a damn thing she said was true. And she intentionally led Chris with her “it belongs to the butcher, right?” question.

Love that for her.

ok i’m watching the newest episode of snw and why the fuck are they traumatizing m’benga in this way shoving him into a klingon war that hasn’t officially broken out yet when in tos he was just this random doctor that had studied vulcan physiology

#i do kind of like this chapel-m’benga friendship this war situation is establishing though #star trek snw #christine chapel #m’benga

[pinazee]

I know i should be concerned with what M’Benga did, but the part of my brain that needs things to be complete is very satisfied that he finally got the job done

"...a story that makes perfect, simple sense in what is says: you can never know how someone will respond to your stories, what you'll ask of each other, what you'll give. You can only control so much. The story never belongs to only you." - Molly Templeton x Strange New Worlds, Episode 8

[Image IDs. Five images. (1) Text that reads 'She rewrites his story and he lets her-' Followed by an image of Rukiya, looking at her dad asking 'But what if we could change the ending?' Followed by two images of M'Benga looking away, and then at Rukiya, saying 'Someday, you'll write your own stories. And you can have any ending you like.' (2) Text that says 'because he has to let someone tell him something.' and an image of M'Benga telling Una that his daughter's 'time is now running out.' (3) Text that says 'better than the story he's telling himself.' and two images of M'Benga and Rukiya. In the first he tells her 'Okay, brave girl' and in the second he hugs her. (5) text that says 'What if you let someone who loves you rewrite your story?' and an image of M'Benga looking surprised, saying 'Rukiya?' (6) Text that says 'Who would you be?' and an image of Rukiya as an adult saying, 'Hello Daddy.' Followed by an image of M'Benga, teary eyed and smiling at his daughter from behind his hand. /End IDs]
