/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

In this journey that we all call life, it is best to travel light, with few encumbrances holding us back.

This image made me realize that Sisko is the only one of the big 4 shows' captains that has a any sort of relationship with his kid. 3/4 are absent parents.

Sisko had to, because one if those 3/4 blew up his wife.

To be fair, Kirk and Janeway don't have any kids (not counting the lizard babies) as far as I'm aware. And Picard wasn't even told about his son until waaaaay later. Plus, that only came out in Picard so I don't think it counts lol

Kirk has an adult son named David in Wrath of Khan and Search for Spock. And despite knowing about him, Kirk stayed out of his life. David didn't even know Kirk was his dad until it's revealed in Wrath of Khan.

Those dang poor lizard babies.

Freeman and Mariner have a relationship. It’s strained at times, but it’s there. (And if you’re counting Jack, then Lower Decks is worth counting, too.)

Jadzia, last panel: Two, actually.

He "adopted" that Astor kid in an episode of TNG. I think technically it was more of a Klingon "big brother, little brother" kind of thing, but he definitely signed up for a father-figure role and promptly never thought of the kid again lol.

To be fair to Worf, Riker also adopted a kid ("Jean Luc", the alien with the psychic holodeck powers), and promptly forgot about him forever.

To boldy go where no man has gone before .... and abandon your children.
