I miss Beverly Crusher yes but I also mourn for Pulaski because I love the dynamic between her and Worf when she takes the antidote to honor his cultural practices. She learns to see Data as more than just an android. Her character development from the beginning of the season is so wonderful and I love how dynamic her character is. I would've loved to have seen her stay on for at least one more season

Trektober Day 21 - Canon Event Fix-It. I have a lot of these (Dr Pulaski stays and has a rivalry with Crusher, Sulu is in all of season 2, Tasha survives the evil puddle, Ziyal lives and dates Jake, Julian goes to Cardassia at the end of DS9, etc etc etc) but this will always be my biggie.

Like, seriously. Miles. You are there. You literally saved a person that medical science could not save (albeit with Geordi and Data teaming up) only a few years ago. Did you not remember? Can you not tell Julian to put your buddy in stasis for a few hours while you reprogram a single computer?

This of course brings up a bit of a major problem with Trek. We've seen so many different issues be solved that when they crop up later we can look at them and go '... don't you know how to deal with this?' - especially when it involves the same characters.

I'm seeing Miles in my mind's eye being at dinner a decade later and suddenly just freezing up and slapping himself in the face.

Anyway. We could have double Dax. It would be EASY. Jadzia would be such a good and terrible influence on Ezri. People would be constantly so confused.

This was a bit of a bugger to do in one day for the challenge so I may draw it more coherently in the future.

But if I can just say all the right words, surely they will understand and see things from my perspective right?

i just learnt that dr pulaski is canonically polish so i am going to be incredibly annoying about her

FINNALLY SOME POLISH REPRESENTATION AT LAST

a milf doctor who is a female mccoy is canonically polish?...YES PLEASE

(also yes i love data sm, hes one of my fave characters in tng and all of star trek and im aware that pulaski was a cunt to him BUT she literally realised her mistakes and began to fw data heavy and stopped demeaning him for being an android)

[vamplulex]

If Gen Z slang had existed in the past of Star Trek do you think Dr Pulaski called Data a clanker atleast once

unpopular star trek opinion time(?) i like dr. pulaski! i feel like she's lumped in with the 'data mistreaters' but she really wasn't that bad! i prefer to interpret her 'challenges' toward data more as her giving him the opportunity to debunk the prejudices that he's confronted with rather than her trying to prove that he's an unfeeling machine and also: you're all missing the frenemy potential!!! i don't know. i'd like to see how their relationship would've changed the longer she saw data develop
