      admittedly it’s kinda hard to figure out a solid L representative

      Got you covered.

      I consulted with a real-world L about this option and she said, and I quote, “fucking fuck yes!” when I asked, so I take that as an official endorsement from the L community.

          I like to think that Nicole de Boer just showed up one morning to makeup looking like that and they decided to roll with it. If I saw someone wearing that in the street at any point in the last fifty years, I wouldn’t bat an eye, it feels so timeless.

          I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I think Ezri should have replaced Jadzia several seasons earlier. One, so that Terry didn’t have to suffer as much from sex pests. Two, because Ezri is a far more interesting character.

      i was racking my brain trying to figure out where the “l” came from until you put together “l representative” and the episode “rejoined” popped back into my head. lol

        Oh, lower case L. I was seeing upper case i for a while there. Rejoined is on the table there, but she also married Worf and was shown to be into a decent amount of dudes as well as women (implied by the show and confirmed by headcannon of the masses). She kisses another woman on screen so I guess it’s the best we’ve got do far, which is pretty shitty.

            A whole relationship onscreen is giving it a bit too much credit since her and Jenn were kind of a background thing thar came up a couple times before they broke up and it was brought up again in a recent episode that I don’t care for how it was handled.

          which is pretty shitty

          whole heartedly agreed; that episode plus the outcast from tng were murky at best and i’m glad that new era of star trek has made up for it since it’s better late than never.

              i feel like lower decks pushes this compassion to a new level each time they bait and switch with a story that seems like it would be drama, but ends up being a fun silly nothing-burger.

              the one with rutherford stressing out about how he’s going to disappoint all the department chairs; but each one ends up being completely encouraging in his decision after hamming up all the drama about the disappointment comes to mind.
