literally NONE of the heteto ships on snw have any chemistry my god theyâre all so mf cringe.
i liked marie and i absolutely donât agree w the nonsensical way they got rid of her, but iâm almost glad sheâs gone purely for the fact that i dont need to witness her & pike together anymore. chapel and korby are SO bad my god please spare us no more. spock and laâan are legitimately painful to watch for many, MANY strong reasons
the only âromancesâ that would ever be even remotely relevant in the context of star trek (and especially in the context of a PREQUEL to tos) would be âatypicalâ ones like spirk (obviously, and broadly anything interspecial like una and doug lol which everybody loved!!!) and anything queer / âboundary pushingâ (like scotty and uhura - although heteto in nature, itâs interracial - HELLO KISS BETWEEN SHATNER AND NICHOLS FIRST INTERRACIAL KISS, but ALSO it was basically a secret, bc relationships have no place in the context of the show. also celia is nonbinary so that in and of itself makes uhotty outside the status quo with this show). so please ENOUGH with the boring heteto nonsense this isnât the CW.
i donât need to see any more frankly gross, uncalled for, ooc sultry salsa dancing or weird ass flashforward marriages with dogs and kids ffs. GIVE ME THE STRANGE NEW WORLDS. the space. the philosophy, the cheesy sets, the moral dilemmas, the shenanigans, the beauty of the âhumanâ spirit and how it touches everything in the galaxy, the replicator food, the funny/cool animals on other planets, the scientific breakthroughs, the beauty of teamwork!!
there are GLIMPSES of those things in snw, but itâs not consistent and the interludes of boring relationships NEED to stop. give us more subspace rhapsody, more ad astra per aspera, more the sehlat who ates its tail. PLEASE. s3 was honest to god horrendous so i hope all their toting of âs4 is betterâ is actually true.
