Star Trek Descriptions

Hi, my name is Steffii. Send me posts you want described, please. [icon image description: Starfleet insignia coloured silver and blue, placed upon a disabled pride flag. /end image description] [Header description: a photo of the stars at night across an empty road. /end header description]

Hi! Welcome to the blog, my name is Steffii and I write descriptions for any and all Star Trek posts.

If you want something described, drop me a message, an ask, or tag me in it. I will copy and paste alt descriptions, I will remove a description from a deactivated blog and post a new one.

Feel free to send me corrections if I make a mistake, if I didn't mention an important part of a post, if I missed a part entirely.

I work 12 hours a week (sometimes more), am a parent (I will disappear during half terms), and my sleep schedule is terrible, so reblogging and writing descriptions isn't consistent anymore, but I try my best.

I have been blocked by acecroft, do not tag me in any post of theirs, I cannot reblog it.

My descriptions for Trek-Daily's posts do not show up in the notes, so I've made a special tag for them - #notes tag. It is a featured tag, making it easy for you to find in the search bar.

Why I'm copying alt descriptions into plain text

ds9 episode concept: a high profile murder occurs while garak is busy taking some INCREDIBLY illegal drug he somehow procured. He is later questioned by odo and immediately becomes suspect number 1 because hes so incapacitated he cant come up with an alibi. He cannot say he was doing the incredibly illegal drug because he doesnt realise the federation would not publicly execute him over this. Bonus if he was doing suspicious shit the past few days to procure the orion syndicate disco dust that doomed his ass

[tinsnip]

Odo would take one look at this and go, no, wasn’t him.

What!! Says everybody. But he’s soooo suspicious! And he can’t even come up with an alibi!!

Exactly, says Odo. If Garak did it, he’d have an alibi.

[Image description: a set of nine stills from Star Trek Enterprise in a washed out, sepia toned edit.

First, Enterprise NX-01 orbits a desert plantet with swirls of white clouds.

Second, T'pol and Trip look around an alien room covered in hexagons, wearing protective suits without the helmets on.

Third, Doctor Phlox wears a face shield inside the brightly lit white sickbay, looking down at something off-screen.

Fourth, two dying insectoid xindi hatchlings lie in a pool of fluid on a rough grey surface.

Fifth, Captain Archer reaches up to touch a cluster of eggs hanging from a ceiling.

Sixth, Phlox holds the body of one of the hatchlings in gloved hands.

Seventh, Trips stands in one of the enterprise's hallways, looking pained and holding his shoulder.

Eighth, Major Hayes and Malcom Reed converse in the sick bay.

Ninth, T'pol holds a phaser on someone offscreen, looking determined.

End descripton.]

[tpols]

[tpols]

2 years in a row i've forgotten about this.......... i'm so sorry to jonathan archer and his insect babies

[jonathanarcher]

Mark it on your calendars people I’m going to make this a Star Trek holiday if the only person celebrating it is me standing in a corner aggressively talking about archers beautiful insect children that he kills through negligence

[insignificantstrawberry]

Making up a holiday for Enterprise and then forgetting to celebrate the holiday for Enterprise is an extremely Enterprise thing to do

[nonbinaryezrabridger]

[Image description: four stills of Captain Archer from Star Trek Enterprise. In the first two he looks down at a small insect-like alien perched on his shoulders. In the second two he looks up at a cluster of egg-like structures hanging over his head, reaching up to touch, the aliens still clinging to his body. He looks sweaty and sick in all of the stills.

Today’s obsession: T’Pring and Spock’s gloriously awkward wedding photos where they both look like they’d rather be anywhere else.

[ID: Three redraws of Amok Time promotional photos: all three show T’Pring and Spock side by side, looking very disinterested in each other. The first picture is in greyscale and the other two are in colour. All three drawings feature the reference photo in a corner of the image. /end ID]

[bugbashir]

When I was a very suicidal trans activist in Texas, Benjamin Sisko saying “sure, you would [die for your people]. Dying gets you off the hook. The question is: are you willing to live for your people?” changed and possibly saved my life. It’s up there with “if we are going to be damned, let us be damned for who we really are” from Picard. Star Trek not only shows us a better world, it teaches us how to make it there

[zenaidamacrouras1]

Oh this Benjamin Sisko quote has also saved me. Space Dad is always ready to find the joy too, no matter how bad it got.

Trivia Moments For Star Trek: First Contact (1996)

[definite-human]

Yeah yeah Solkar the slut, we all know the song

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

I was SO scared of the Borg as a kiddo so I'm glad to know even adults found them creepy looking

[quailfence]

[Image description: Ten gifs from Star Trek: First Contact, with text listing triva about the movie on top of each gif.

Image 1: The definant's helmsman says something as the ship is attacked. Text: The helmsman on the Defiant is played by Adam Scott from 'Parks And Recreation'.

Image 2: Lieutenant Hawk on the bridge. Text: An early version of the script included a backstory for Lieutenant Hawk which would have made him Star Trek's first openly gay character.

Image 3: Lily and Cochrane staning outside their tent. Lily point at something in the sky. Text: When Lily points out the Borg sphere just before it attacks, Cochrane thinks she is pointing at the constellation Leo. One of the stars in Leo is Wolf 359.

Image 4: The Phoenix in its silo. Text: The scenes in the silo with the Phoenix were filmed at the Titan Missile Museum in Arizona - the only ICBM silo in the world that is open to the public.

Image 5: the Borg Queen talking. Text: The silver contact lenses Alice Krige had to wear were so painful, she could only keep them in for a few minutes at a time.

Image 6: Cochrane dancing. Text: James Cromwell claimed Zefram Cochrane was the closest of any of his roles to his real personality.

Image 7: A pair of Borg walking down a corridor. Text: The Borg eyepieces flash the Morse code of the names of people associated with the production.

Image 8: Lily and Picard are walking in a corridor. Lily looks behind herself, then jumps and clings to Picard in fear. Text: Alfre Woodard was legitimately scared of the Borg drones. She had never watched 'The Next Generation', so had no idea how intimidating they would look.

Image 9: fingers pressing buttons on a control panel. Text: As the Phoenix is taking off. a panel close-up shows two buttons labeled TOS 3 and TOS 8. Zefram Cochrane was introduced in 'Metamorphosis', the 38th episode of The Original Series.

Image 10: A Vulcan pulls down his hood to reveal his pointed ears. Text: The Vulcan who shakes Cochrane's hand is Solkar - Sarek's grandfather and Spock's great-grandfather. End description.]
