Clicky the cut for my personal musing on one TOS Trek character. YMMV. No idea what's been up with me lately, but this particular character's been giving me all the dang feels. Sharding adorable high-strung choirboy. I need to rewatch movies 2-4, or something. Maybe that'll de-clog my subconscious. What say, [personal profile] meimichan? I give you permission to laugh at me all you want.


Things Pavel Andreievich Chekov is absolutely categorically bloody not:

*a sly, manipulative schemer hiding reems of wicked knowledge behind an innocent facade

*the ship's bicycle, see both above and below

*promiscuous to a ridiculous degree; he's canonically interested in women, but somehow, a wild and misspent boyhood in Russia carrying over to dealings on the ship just does not compute, at all

*17, dammit, he openly says 22 in a TOS episode and that's what I'm sticking with, all the love to his alternate counterpart where it's due

Yeah! And Garak and Odo and Dax -

What can I say, I'm a fan of morally grey, and DS9 does that so, so well while retaining heart and relatability.

Huzzah for better~

I really did like Tuvock, and all his little moments of warmth that the kolinaaru (intentionally, deservedly) miss. Sonak would be lovely in that sort of a role. I like a little masked willingness to bend, too; there's saying it aloud and then there's communicating it in all the silent, eloquent ways the Vulcans have.

Singer, appreciator of arts -

I would read the heck out of this.

I'm missing a reference here. What's Timeheart?

... Yup. A lot of it is visual. In particular he does things with very subtle facial expressions and expressive eyebrows. He's easier to read than someone like the kolinaaru group in Search for Spock, or even Sarek.

Hee! Well, you have an audience. ;)

Ah, thanks. That does sound interesting.
