S5e24: Ro and Geordi are cloaked, in terms of vision and matter intersction Now this is a nice setup for that DS9 cloaking device that lands a federation test ship inside an asteroid But also: how do they speak if they can't interact with the air around them? How do they breathe? They can walk through walls but don't fall through the floor even if doing judo? But you can push each other through the walls no problem? Handwavium strikes again! S5E25: Riker: Can you extrapolate the radiation trail? Geordi: Yes, a planet in the blahblah system, called Kataan. Data: yeah we haven't mapped that system yet but somehow we have named the planet E: ooooh this is the episode for that comparison image of Patrick Stewart at 70 as Picard vs Patrick Steward at 70 irl looking... the same as during TNG simplefish fucked around with this message at 18:48 on May 27, 2018 |

Something about gravity plating acting as a magnet, but there's no gravity plating in the walls and their tissue is ionized enough from the exposure to the cloaking effect that it's making the very low-mass air phase and out of the material plan every time they breath but no one notices.

deep space nine, a bunch of people awkwardly make-do with each other in the cramped space of a station somewhere in the solar system, awkwardly doing hygeine in zero-g and spending time in centrifuges and doing weird exercises to minimize bone density loss and risk of cardiac events and taking data on boring as gently caress experiments and occasionally freaking out when a new ship docks. will something gently caress up? it's space. probably.

You must be *this* sexy to get a commission aboard Enterprise. Remember when Reed and Trip thought they were gonna get some hot Risan trim but they turned out to be Space Nasferatus?

I remember when Phlox's wife wanted to gently caress Trip, and he was like "Dr Phlox I'm sorry, your wife tried to gently caress me" and Dr Phlox was like "Wow you shoulda hosed her she's really good at it"

all worth it just for that shot of dickbag romulan chasing ro around the ship until geordi pops up and knocks the romulan off course and whoopsies! he flies through the ships hull and goes spinning head over heels off into space forever and it doesn't matter if he's out of phase and no one can see him because we can see him

Hector Beerlioz posted:enterprise is a lot funnier than you'd imagine it 2 be I still think that the funniest thing that happened on Enterprise was when they were trying to outrun some ship at warp 4.7 or something, and when they finally get caught and boarded, Archer puts on a "Hey, you were going really fast, could you have made warp 4.8? 4.9? I bet you could have done 5 if you wanted to!"

Gatekeeper posted:"...legends don't die. they just lose weight." It's cool since the fact he wasn't interacting with other matter means he wasn't transferring heat so he actually died over a period of days floating in an endless void without sound or feeling with the full knowledge that he's going to die slowly.

Maybe they went and picked him up? I mean, now that they knew how to detect phased people and de-phase them, they could've followed his trajectory, de-phased him while still in space, then beamed him aboard before he died of normal space reasons. That's totally doable with the Enterprise's crew and ship capabilities combined. In fact, that's my new head canon. He's back amongst the living after 20+ years dead.

Plus every time Phlox talked about his like 5 wives and all their husbands it sounded like they all got on great and had amazing BBQ get aways where they all hosed each others wives. Trip could have got an invite to that too, for science.

Ghost Leviathan posted:That sounds like the kind of poly relationship where everything's fine til you grab the wrong boob or something and then all hell breaks loose I think the point is that it's not the sort of bullshit you see online where it's like a dude saying he's in an open relationship and his girlfriend has like 3 buy friends and he just had her. The point is you have Phlox who has wife 1, 2, 3, and 4. But wife 1 has husbands A, B, and C. From what he says in the series they basically all get on great, and like he views the husbands of his wives as sort of brother-in-laws. Like their big get togethers sound basically like those giant family reunion BBQs you see in movies. Maybe the entire pitch was "one of those poly relationships you read about online, but you know, genuine and not just a guy explaining why his girlfriend fucks other guys all the time".

Kurzon Dax died of loving. Lwaxana fucks that ferangi in Menage a Troi. Risa's entire gimmick is being FuckPlanet Prime. Harry getting lectured is like the only instance in the history of Starfleet that anyone was ever punished for having sex.

I suppose it could be argued that since they're alpha quadrant aliens everyone has a good idea about what sort of stds or whatever you can get from them where as Harry was banging a Delta quadrant alien whose physiology they knew nothing about so they don't know what sorts of stds they carry. But Harry is hardly the first person to bang an alien they just met, I mean Dax was probably banging that boring Brigadoon alien and she probably didn't go to Bashir about it first.
