It took me longer than I intended, of course, but I’ve cracked open the season 2 DVD boxset, and watched the first disc of episodes.

( The Homecoming; The Circle; The Siege; Invasive Procedure )

So, a consistently good and promising start to the season, I thought.

This post has been (too) long in the making! First, as part of halfamoon, I asked for Kira-centric recs and got two treasure troves of answers here.

( Disc 5 )

( Disc 6 )

( Overview ) I have the second season on DVD, so it may not be too long before I'm rewatching that.

The other night, there was comment-ficcing. The theme was six word fics. The two things are not unrelated.

I wrote

DCU, Steve/Darcy, movie night

Man of Steel/Superman, Clark/Lois, Fly Me to the Moon, (x4)

Push, Cassie Holmes (x5)

I prompted
Any, any, tennis and got
Veronica Mars, Veronica/Logan (x4) by leni_ba

and Star Trek Deep Space Nine, Kira Nerys, passion which was filled by daria 234.

Babel, Captive Pursuit, Q-less, Dax

( grumbling about the Gamma Quadrant )

As I've said before, I am embarking on a rewatch of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine DVDs. I have started and a post about the first batch of episodes will be a coming, but I thought I should introduce that by talking about my relationship with the show.

( the short version is that I watched some of it )

When I was starting this rewatch, this thoughtful piece about where the Star Trek franchise should/could go next appeared at Den of Geek. It puts forward an excellent argument for an animated series, following where DC, Marvel and Star Wars have gone, but I have to admit that I've long thought they should do an animated show because of what they could do with the aliens, in a 'do it for me, not the kids' way. Ahem.
