As a Stargate fan it cracks me up how close everything is in Trek. Like Voyager was looking at 70 years to cross less than half the Galaxy but they used to pop halfway into Pegasus in a few weeks 😂

I haven’t seen season 1 since it aired so I thought I would skip watch it. I don’t think I’ve ever done that before but I don’t have 8 hours or however long the season is to spare at the moment.
Anyway I got to the bit where that guy says “call Riker, call Worf” etc. and Picard says “no they would do it out of loyalty to me” and the guy says “so you need someone who hates you and who has nothing to lose” and Picard says “I already made the call”
And I’m just like Raffi? You are talking about Raffi! 1) how could you ever mistake her for anything but loyal underneath all the layers of pain? 2) even if it was a case of “nothing left to lose” why would a ‘good guy’ take advantage of that?
He clearly knew just what to say to push her buttons too :/ to manipulate her into doing what he wanted.
I find it interesting that Raffi gave Rios the money for La Sirena. I wonder if that was more of her self hatred. 🤔 I mean she describes her home as a “hovel” and talks about Picard living large with heirloom furniture at the chateau. If she could have afforded something better but gave Rios the money instead, maybe that’s because she felt she didn’t deserve anything better.
Not gonna lie I can’t encounter the line “it’s time for Plan B” without immediately hearing “we have a Plan B?” “No but it’s time for one” and then that little huh head nod.
From Stargate but totally fits everything. Our beloved heroes do love to fly by the seat of their pants.
How could anyone not appreciate Raffi? I didn’t know Seven was showing up in season 1 of Picard but Raffi was there and I was like “yup my fave I am sorted, I love her, give me all the Raffi story” and then Seven showed up so Raffi had to share fave status a bit haha, but still Raffi, too awesome.
And omg her outfit this season with those finger less gloves 🤩 I just loved how badass she looked (and was!)
Doing fan stuff is an act of love and enthusiasm. How can anyone make fun of that? If anyone does that says everything about them, and nothing about you.
So I’m pondering video games and difficulty mode.
I was just looking at the trophy list for the original “Uncharted” and it wants the game fully completed on every single difficulty 🙀 considering I said “this is impossible!” several times while playing on easy mode I’m thinking noooo…. 🤣
I’m wondering if it’s an age thing. The original Uncharted is quite old now (in video game terms). I managed to get Platinum on the Marvel Spiderman game playing on the “friendly neighbourhood mode” (aka the idiot can’t die mode) so perhaps newer games don’t demand a specific difficulty so much?
I know Seven had some kind of emotional inhibitor but I haven’t seen all of Voyager. Is it removed at some point? I need to know for fic reasons.
It was part of her cortical node right? And Icheb gave her his I think? (I read wiki) so I’m not sure what that means. BUT I mean with the depth of emotion she felt re: Icheb’s death + how much Seven loves Raffi there’s no way it can still be functioning right?
On the other hand I do recall Once Upon a Time and how Regina removed her heart and still managed to break a curse with true loves kiss because even with her feelings gone she loved her son that damn much /sigh
Googles. Cool. As it’s no longer relevant I won’t be mentioning it. I was just typing something and went “waaait can I say that?” and thought I should check. Turns out yes I can. Whoo!
I’m getting really sick of every physical symptom I google coming back to “anxiety”.
Like I know dude but that ain’t fixable.
Could I have something fixable instead please? Also something visible would also be neat. Feeling like shit with zero proof SUCKS 🙁
Seven got tipsy off a single glass on Voyager but maybe it’s how she didn’t drink coffee on Voyager and does now. She picked up a lot of human vices as a defence mechanism maybe?
Maybe going fuzzy is something she wants because being sober is too painful?
