    Star Trek The Next Generation The Gift: A Star Trek SI

    In Adam’s shoes, I would’ve been tempted to let things with Fajo proceed as per canon, then simply delay Data’s final beam-out by a second or so. Fuck that guy; the universe would’ve been a better place without him in it. But the downside of letting things proceed that way would have been...

    A Dream Given Form: A Babylon 5 Self Insert

    Of course, the on-set drama between Andrea Thompson and Jerry Doyle (and Andrea Thompson and JMS) probably didn’t do Talia many favours, either.

    Star Trek The Next Generation The Gift: A Star Trek SI

    I missed that episode when it played out here, and from what I've heard afterwards... well, in his latter days Roddenberry had some good ideas, but then he also had ideas like some of Picard's role in The Bonding.

    Breaking the Veil (Commissioned NuBSG/BT crossover)

    Nobbling a nation’s economic expansion by leading pirates to raid new-founded colonies and kneecap them so they die out, rather than reach viability? It would certainly be on-brand for ComStar.

    A Dream Given Form: A Babylon 5 Self Insert

    Right, misjudged the timeline. My bad. The rest of the point stands: revealing what he knows would pose two other questions that would get him black-bagged and mind-ripped in a heartbeat: how does he know this thing he has no right to? and what else does he know that he has no right to?

    A Dream Given Form: A Babylon 5 Self Insert

    Londo hasn't even met Morden yet, much less sold his soul to him, and any effort towards warning him about Adira's fate would open that whole can of worms about 'how the SI knows all this'. Londo (and/or anyone else in the greater Centauri Republic who found out about that kind of intelligence...

    Breaking the Veil (Commissioned NuBSG/BT crossover)

    I'd lay good money that ComStar either arranged this little probe, or are outright running it under false colours, to get a real measure of both the Colonials and the tech they've given the Taurians. That they might have someone doing sneaky-peeky shenanigans during this is highly likely.

    Trace Coburn’s Plot-Tribble Sanctuary (snippets and offcuts, mostly Buffy-related)
    Threadmarks: She Came All The Way from America, cont. [5]

    For Christmas, I give everybody another chunk for my 'Buffy goes into an apprenticeship program' concept: – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – Still reeling under this latest blow to her world-view, Buffy almost didn’t register the exchange. “B...but I never wanted to...

    Star Trek The Next Generation The Gift: A Star Trek SI

    AIUI, the showrunners honestly tried to make Chakotay genuinely representative of Native American culture; they just got screwed by the fact that the guy they hired as a cultural consultant turned out to be a con-artist and compulsive liar.

    Trace Coburn’s Plot-Tribble Sanctuary (snippets and offcuts, mostly Buffy-related)
    Threadmarks: Miniguns: Sadly Less Awesome Than Advertised

    Inspired by a certain scene in A California Cainite in Mayor WIlkins’ Court. This one is a scene (probable out-take?) from later on in She Came All The Way From America and contains mild spoilers for Falling Cherry Blossoms. “Y’know, I actually got to do that, once,” Taz noted offhandly...

    World War Scion

    Almost as intriguing as circumstances meaning Carol Dallon is willing to reach out to Marquis in common cause (namely: shoving something large and spiky up the asses of Nazis and Nazi accessories). I wonder how 'Heidi' will react when she finds out the truth?

    Star Trek Ideas and Recommendations Thread

    Wow. I know QQ Is For Lewds, but you'd think Star Trek would have at least a little discussion here.... In any case, I might as well throw this plot-bunny out on as many places as I can think of: Readers of Paint and Powder (over on SB) might remember that I have a minor fixation on the TNG...

    Scholastic Assistance Services, Balmoral Shopping Centre 15:23, Friday, March 29, 1996 "You're what?" Buffy blinked, a little blankly. "You're who the what now?" "They gave you the 'one girl in every generation' speech, eh?" realised the crazy woman with the long dark-auburn hair and the...

    Deputy Headmaster Barry Gordon's office, Administration building, St. George's Academy 13:37, Friday, March 29, 1996 Gordon massaged his eyes as Xander finished laying out his version of events. "Last day of term, and I get all the Americans," he sighed to himself, before redonning his...

    “... Good to know, thanks.” Buffy was kind’a squicked by that ‘free-for-all’ line, but let it slide. “And if I have a burning desire not to flunk all my classes?” “About a block down the road there’s a strip-mall, the Balmoral Shopping Centre. Look for Scholastic Assistance Services, they...
