ST VOY lover, P/T shipper, absolute Tom Paris apologist, unapologetic nerd-raging feminist, sometimes NSFW 🔞 If you like Steven Moffat, Rick Berman or Tarantino, turn back now b/c here be 🐉!
Star Trek Voyager Title Cards if they were named like Friends Episodes: P/T Edition #TomBElanna #PTshippers
Lisa Klink writing Tom & B’Elanna making out 3/4 times per episode just to make the audience 🥵 is honestly a BIG reason why I love her ❤️💛
Yes, I am very familiar with this concept! Booksmart men who are absolute dumbasses and also absolutely obsessed with their respective loves of their lives (and,yes, I DO mean Sherlock for John, he’s so disaster-bi-coded it’s insane & there is zero platonic explanation for how he looks at Sherlock)
Well I got into Star Trek as a teenager because of the hot “Irish” actor who was IN Star Trek so honestly I feel like you belong in the Trek fandom with the rest of us
Totally! There’s only one man on earth who could tell *me* to “shut up” and get away with it, but his “Yes Ma’am” also does things to me so… 😏🤭
Women in the 24th century: “FINALLY a man I can’t out-man!” (Sorry Tom, not you, your man points are pretty high!)
I love how whoever wrote these Voyager comics completely understands B’Elanna’s canon consistently feral response to Tom’s hands “I’ve seen those hands at work Mister, speed it up!” Yes, yes she has 🤭
And, while we’re at it, justice for Malcolm Barrett! If Sam wasn’t gonna be with Jack, she shoulda been with this guy! (And I say that as a diehard S/J shipper!)
I haven’t watched Stargate properly in about 2 decades but periodically I’m reminded that Spudboy exists and honestly has there ever been a more appropriate candidate for having Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Manchild’ as his theme song? I STILL fucking hate this stalker cop-ass loser
Right? I’m re-watching all of my 90’s faves and keep coming back to Voyager. Tom & B’Elanna are the only thing holding me together right now. I just watched ER for my first Carby fix in 25 years & I wanna throw John off the helipad rn lol
One thing I love about Tom Paris is how well he argues. Arguing is a skill, and he has it in spades by S7. He generally keeps his cool, & the only times we hear him raise his voice to B’Elanna is when it isn’t him or his brain chemistry has been altered (‘Vis a Vis’, ‘Alice’, ‘Memorial’)
!!! This! Jonathan had more chemistry putting sunscreen on Caro in S1 than his entire screentime with Roxana (and why does he keep saying her full name every 5 minutes as if we’ve forgotten who she is??) No spoilers but I think you might be as mad at the ending as I am. S2 is so boring.
They keep calling Ethan “hot Spock” as if Zachary Quinto didn’t have a Fleet uniform that was tailored to within an inch of its life & was competing with Captain America in the “America’s ass” stakes, & that Leonard Nimoy’s Spock didn’t basically create romantic fanfiction as a genre.
If you want to know how well a man understands consent and nuance, ask him to explain the plot of Star Trek’s ‘Blood Fever’ to you. Because the problematic ones really struggle to understand it!
Remember Voyager’s half-Klingon Chief Engineer who bemoaned that everyone assumed all Klingons were warriors but she chose engineering b/c “warriors may get all the glory but engineers build societies” and the only “warrior” she was interested in was a guy who could wield a bat’leth to seduce her??
Jack was SUCH a silver fox back in the day. Idk what he was doing around season 5 but ooft! The unairbrushed version of this look on him is 🔥
THIS IS THE WOMAN YOU WANT A DIVORCE FROM??? Man, are you even straight?? I am and I’d have her!!!
Tom Paris’ neurodivergent kink game is STRONG. B’Elanna bit him, grabbed his face, sniffed him, growled in his face about tasting his blood, kicked his feet out from under him, pinned him to various surfaces by his hands/wrists & afterwards he was like “Can I keep you for the rest of my life?”
Well ‘The Night Manager’ getting all homoerotic on a dance floor wasn’t on my bingo card!
Haha I’m not in any way averse to the idea, but if you told me that Tom Paris was the only canonical character in the Trek franchise who was 100% straight, I would believe you no questions asked. Nick Locarno on the other hand is 100% moody twink!
Ok, I’m listening… tell me where b/c, as far as I’m aware, it was never even hinted at in canon that she’s bi! (I have no objection, I’m just like ‘huh?’)
Ok maybe TMI but can we talk about how frustrating it is to be a demisexual grey-ace and trying to date when you are a bit sensory-kinky & have a high libido but only for the 3 guys you ever like? B/c I keep ending up w/men who can’t keep up with me! Can sum1 please just send me a Tom Paris clone?
Ok but can we talk about how cute & adorable B’Elanna is when she is all flustered by Tom? She doesn’t let herself be soft very often but when she does it’s like 🥰 I love it when she giggles at him, and in ‘Distant Origin’ when he tells her to bring her own bat’leth and she’s absolutely swooning
Voyager: “Yeah we came up with Tom & B’Elanna’s r’ship quickly in S3” Also Voyager: *Tom & B’Elanna in ‘Faces’ in S1* *Is hella protective of her & keeps trying to touch her face when she’s distressed* *Tom is ready to fight robots to save her in ‘Prototype’* Okay, sure. No plan there at all 🤭
