Quietly Going On

I am regular people with wrinkles and grey hair wearing frumpy clothes and I approve of this message.

Deep Space 9 really had the best time travel episodes of any Star Trek. It had the disturbingly close portrayal of the 2020s, Quark's family causing the Roswell Incident, and the senior staff sneaking onto Kirk's Enterprise where they promptly get in a bar fight (and also prevent the Enterprise from exploding). No one was doing it like DS9.

Nooo never kill yourself baby. Star Trek enters the public domain in 2062.

One year before the Vulcans arrive?

Well yeah, otherwise they'd be under copyright

Mutual pining is great, but you know what's even better? Mutual pining where they're both fully aware the feelings are requited, they just can't do anything about it for other reasons. Or maybe they technically could but they've had to choose not to, because of The Circumstances.

if you haven’t, i hope you fall in love with life again. i hope you wake up with a happy sigh, hope you feel like doing things you enjoy, hope you are surrounded by people who make you feel safe, hope you smile at yourself in the mirror.
