They say science fiction never really predicts the future, and yet Captain Picard says “tea, earl grey, hot” in that meticulous way observed only in someone with a slightly unusual accent who’s finally figured out the exact cadence and phrasing their voice activated smart-whatever actually understands and suspects if they allow their tone to vary even one iota it’s going to interpret their drink order as a request for a live ocelot.

STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION

[normalmammal]

qpid is a really funny episode for a lot of reasons but my favorite part about it is the first 20 minutes that are just vash showing up on the ship and the entire bridge crew trying to figure out how to ask her if she fucked their boss

[normalmammal]

picard has such a bad day in this episode its hilarious. what if YOU were trying to write a speech about your autistic special interest and then your SITUATIONSHIP showed up and she started GOSSIPING with your coworkers and then got MAD at you and then the OMNIPOTENT ALIEN WHO WANTS TO FUCK YOU put you and your coworkers in STUPID OUTFITS in an ALTERNATE DIMENSION and at the end your situationship LEAVES YOU FOR HIM

[overseer-picard]

Alas, I knew her…

Though, the Borg Queen may have a bit less "infinite jest" and "most excellent fancy" than Yorick, but she makes up for it with her enviable amount metallic tubing.

imagine being so into a balding man that you didnt consider being a woman to annoy him even more

[cptjeanluc]

"You were a child?" he prompts. "What happened to eternal and unchanging?" Of course he remembers what it was like to be a child, and that memory only makes this whole situation worse. It had been bad enough when Robert had only been slightly older than him, with no more authority than he had. Now, to be younger even than René... Even with the clear understanding that he was still an adult, and that this all was only for show, Jean Luc was not looking forward to the experience of sharing a home with him once again. That all said, it wasn't anything he had done or forgotten which had put him in this situation--it was just a freak accident.

"I'm not going to be doing anything interesting or exciting for years now. Why don't you go bother Captain Riker instead?" Unfortunately, despite his best efforts, he doesn't manage to sound like he really means that.

[museicbox]

"Because Commander Riker is a stuffy old man." Q said, chuckling as he did so while leaning back in his chair with his hands behind his head.

"And yes. I was a child, I think. But as I said, it was eons ago if I ever was one. I am still eternal and unchanging, when I want to be." He simply shrugged his shoulders and looked back over to Picard again. "So, where are we going?"

[cptjeanluc]

Riker was a stuffy old man and he wasn’t? He had to smile at that--there was simply no choice, no matter that he'd really rather not give Q the satisfaction of visibly amusing him. "They've promoted him. He finally accepted, now that it's the Enterprise on offer."

Jean Luc looked back at him too, but only because he needed to keep an eye on the most dangerous being in this sector. For everybody's safety. "Earth. France. Then, if I'm lucky, off to a university very far away from there. Does your question mean you're planning to come along? It really will be very boring."

[cptjeanluc]

It took him a second to puzzle it out, but not much longer, and then his confusion turned right back to irritation. "I'm not interested, Q. Though temporarily relieved of duty is not the same as losing my rank. I'm still a captain to you." And he would gladly die on that hill, if it was asked of him.

Of course, he is interested; he never has been able to properly ignore Q, even in his adult body, with years of impulse control written into his actions. "Why are you here? Have you come to gloat?"

[museicbox]

The young boy chuckled, glad to see that Picard seemed to, at least for the moment, be willing to play along. He knew that his presence would peak the other's curiosity, and he was delighted to see he was right.

"Gloat? Why would I ever gloat, Jean Luc? No, I've come to see what it was like to be a child. It has been eons since I can even remember being close to a child, and I forgot what it was like. Perhaps you, have, too. Is that why you're here, in this situation, hmm?"

[cptjeanluc]

"You were a child?" he prompts. "What happened to eternal and unchanging?" Of course he remembers what it was like to be a child, and that memory only makes this whole situation worse. It had been bad enough when Robert had only been slightly older than him, with no more authority than he had. Now, to be younger even than René...

Open Starter: Growing Pains

Jean Luc was many things. He was stuck in the body of his preteen self, left to grow up all over again. He was bitter. He was annoyed. He was tentatively optimistic about his newly-extended lifespan and the opportunity to finally finish his PhD in Archeology, which had been abandoned when he'd taken command of the Enterprise. He was also temporarily relieved of duty and on his way back to France to work out the details of his brother's guardianship over him. And that made him furious.

He set down the book he couldn't seem to focus on and looked out the window of the transport vessel at the stars. Then he sighed. When another passenger laughed, he turned sharply to face them, preteen hormones bubbling up to destroy any hope he had of remaining as calm and collected as he had prided himself in being in recent years. "What?"

[museicbox]

"That attitude isn't any way to make friends, Jean Luc." The dark haired, pale adolescent sitting in the seat across the aisle from him said in a smarmy voice. An all too familiar smirk was on his lips, and a mischievous sparkle in his eye. "Children need to make friends to be successful, don't they?" Rhetorical, but that was all part of his little game.

Q sat not much taller than Picard, a young boy of about 12 human years of age, wearing the same drab civilian clothes that he had once worn as a human, only child-sized. Dark hair, bright eyes, and a Cheshire smile. Somehow, his smugness was amplified by his youthful appearance.

"Mon Capitaine. Oh, wait, you're not a Captain anymore, are you?"

[cptjeanluc]

It took him a second to puzzle it out, but not much longer, and then his confusion turned right back to irritation. "I'm not interested, Q. Though temporarily relieved of duty is not the same as losing my rank. I'm still a captain to you." And he would gladly die on that hill, if it was asked of him.
