also me:

She walked into her office like a question she didn’t want to answer—and a mistake she wouldn’t survive.

Tal Shiar investigator Lallee has seen every kind of trouble this planet can pour into a glass, but Nomi is something else entirely. Beautiful, sharp, and wrapped in secrets, she says her wife is missing. What she doesn’t say could fill a morgue.

The case pulls Lallee into a world of vanished money, crooked deals, and lies that don’t stay buried. Every lead drags her deeper, every truth cuts closer, and at the center of it all is Nomi—always just out of reach, always one step ahead.

Lallee knows she’s dangerous. She knows she’s being played.

But Nomi doesn’t just haunt the case—she gets under Lallee's skin, in her head, in the quiet spaces where good judgment goes to die.

Some women don’t just break your heart—

Commander Rekar and his second-in-command, Officer Nevala, were, for me, the epitome of those who wore the most beautiful Romulan uniforms, which were also practical. Of course, other Romulans wore these uniforms as well, especially in later DS9 episodes. But since everything in "Star Trek: Voyager – Message in a Bottle" was filmed so beautifully and brightly, these uniforms really stood out. Besides, one has to admit that Judson Scott and Valerie Wildman were real eye-catchers. Incidentally, the anesthetic gas wasn't visible in the episode. But I thought it is funny, though, to add a sticker with a little cloud of mist. I would have liked to know what became of the Romulan crew.

Of course to do the Cardassian issue, Star Trek: Communicator had to touch base with Gul Dukat.

Issue 149 of Star Trek: Communicator is what happens when all the xenophiles are extra good and wish really hard.  “Special Cardassian Issue” it says at the top.  And it certainly is.

We have several pages on Cardassians in general, a little about Cardassian design (padds, architecture, etc), an interview with Andy, a bit with Marc, some with Casey, and finally tech specs on a Galor class ship.  I think I’ll just put out a bit at a time because trying to do it all at once would make this one monster of a post.

(*sad little wave to one of her maybe two pictures of Weyoun*  Hi baby hi hi!  I don’t think anybody ever wished hard enough for a Special Vorta Issue)
