RME Black #4

16:44-17:57=73
Season two of TNG has begun, for the purposes of the rewatching because season two came and went a long time ago.

 The Child is that beginning.

 It already seems to have a better look to it than the first season.

 And some of the changes!

 Riker has a beard that I admit took a moment to get used to this time around. And Laforge is finally sporting the right colour and position that he had for the bulk of his time as a member of the Enterprise. Chief Engineer.

 And Worf too is also in the Gold that suited him as Gold was the right colour for both of them,

 Oh

 And Dr. Crusher was gone and we were stuck with Dr. Pulaski.

 Ugh. I was never a fan, even though the actress herself had played two different characters in TOS so she had the bonafides. I just missed the far superior Dr. Crusher and never warmed up to Dr. Pulaski

 As for the child in question, I had forgotten that Troi had been impregnated at all.

 And this was how we met her, as she was counselling the oddly pregnant Troi in Ten Forward.

 Ah yes, one of the other changes,m we met Guinan, who I never much cared for. And I could do without the actress too. 

 But I liked Guinan more than I liked Pulaski for sure.

 Another good was the beginning of the regular appearances of Miles O'Brien.

 The whole child thing though is not resonating with me.

 Some alien lifeform composed of energy got curious and decided to see what life as a human was like

 And it chose to Troi as its mother.

 It grew to the cusp of adolescence(?) and allowed itself to die and shed its human self and  resumed it's normal life.

 It would have stayed aboard longer, maybe if not for its presnece posing a danger to the crew because of some cargo that was growing because of it.

 And oh yeah, Crusher the son asked for permission to stay and it was given by the captain after duties were handed out to help him with his studies, making sure he slept and parenting.

 Troi didn't volunteer for any of that.

 Would that have been cruel to give her one of those duties after what she had gone through?

 I liked the episode, but I can't say that I enjoyed it as much as the best episode of the first season.

Das Hier #50

Good morning humans. I hate the gravity of your world because it is hard on my back and my back has had enough of it and as a result, I woke up with a pain that that I cannot stand, so I am writing to you from the comfort of my bed. Though being true, because of the pain, there is no comfort but the comfort of escaping awareness through sleep. Hopefully I will find my way to sleep tonight because right now, it feels as though I will not. And you would be sure to read about it here if that was the case if not for one thing, I'm going to be stepping away from the blogging for the coming weeks. At the very least. It could be longer, but it will certainly be for at least three weeks. I know that I won't be missed too much as my small number of readers can attest to. What's going to happen with this blog? Drawings will be posted most days, but I have been in talks with a couple of writers, one alien and one human. Let me know in the comments which writer you...

Das Hier #35

It is painfully clear to me that I have been away from the words for far too long as I got caught up in the memoriams of humans that have made the pictures that they so love. I don't get their appreciation of these stories, because I find them too long and they often like to make followups. And to that idea I shake my head. Maybe it's odd that I think this as a writer, but it is how I feel. I don't even remember what I was going to write. Was I going to slam Dalton for calling me a quitter if I withdrew from the collective? He certainly deserves it, not that I hate him, but he was certainly an ass when he was dissing me for wanting the collective to succeed. But that was more than a half hour ago and that was too long for me to hold onto the thought that I had then. So I begin again.  Thoad stared in the sky, his mouth agape as the speed trail left behind by Merithee, remained vivid when she'd passed by more than five mi...

Wow, how is it so much brighter here than it was when I took the photo, with the lights or flash? Ugh. The science of nature am I right? I like this drawing a lot. Well, I'm not crazy about the pencil's beak, but apart from that, he's a good pencil and I will continue to draw them. Ideally with more colour choices  than the four that I currently have. But for now, however long now lasts, four will have to do. Spleck II will graduate past the black paper so that I have more choices. As for the little guy with his very own flag, he's a Pobadyd and all good Pobadyds have their own flags. Luckily for Poeth, there are many ways for a Pobaddyd to earn themselves a flag becuase there's really only one thing that Poeth is good at, since he's so small and easily beaten in all the physical ways that a Pobadyd can earn their flag. He's a brilliant public speaker and he saved a Pobadyd village with the finest oration...
