My father… We didn’t get along. Frankly, there were times when I downright hated his guts. We never resolved things. This is the first year I’ll be older than he was when he died. But I’d give years off my own life if we could have one more argument. So, my plan was to finish this mission, then sit in a fishing cabin on Setlik II’s ice moon, bring a good bottle of whiskey and have that talk.
StarTrek:StrangeNewWorlds/LowerDeckscrossover
STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS 2x07 “Those Old Scientists”
I hope the snw/lower decks crossover is riddled with mariner and boimler breaking the 4th wall and the 5th wall, and all the walls. Just going around like
Mariner: Holy shit! we’re on the enterprise, and thats spock! Wheres Kirk?
Pike: Uh, sam kirk?
Mariner: Who? No the kirk, the captain.
Pike: I’m captain pike.
Mariner: who?
Boimler: oh! (Turning to mariner) hes the one that spock kidnapped and- i mean, hes the captain of course!
Mariner: oh! I didnt recognize him without the uh (makes dalek shape motion)
Or
Boimler: oh my god its Doctor Chapel! Man Tindi would be losing her mind!
Chapel: its nurse Chapel actually
Mariner (elbows boimler): hah you hinted at the future again. Idiot.
Boimler (waving his hands mystically in front of chapels face) or did i?
Chapel (confused): did you?
Mariner (shrugs): who can say we’re from an alternate universe. Im sure its nothing you haven’t heard before.
Chapel: actually this is a first for me.
Boimler: come to think of it, this might be the first time our universes have ever interacted. How cool is that?!?
this might be a hot take but i actually don’t think humans were meant to know what is going on in everyone’s lives all over the world every second of the day and constantly be available for conversations or collaborations or call-ins for work and texts and phone calls and social media posts without end. i think we were supposed to just help the people around us and spend time with our family and friends and eat yummy bread and berries and relax
