Getting my feelings hurt
vs
Remembering who TF I am.
Screenshot from Star Trek: Lower Decks The Badgey Directive. Castro making a sad face with a comic speech bubble that says "I'm going to die a nobody. My Impulian candles did absolutely nothing." 🥺 Another screenshot from the Badgey Directive. Castro is overly excited. She has a comic speech bubble that says "Have I ever told you about the time I was on the Enterprise and-"

Post someone who looks good in red.

(Red shirts and proud of it)
Screenshot from Star Trek: Lower Decks depicting Jennifer (Andorian), Taylor (Kzinti) and Castro (Human) They are all wearing red Starfleet issued uniforms. Jennifer and Taylor are simply standing there, while Castro has her arms up with her hands fisted. She is posing in a way that reads "I'm so cool, right?")

End of the episode:

Castro: Hey Brad, sorry the whole Romeo and Juliet thing turned out to be fake, but your acting was really good! You want to audition for a Winger Bingston show with me? (holds out her hand)

Boimler: Oh... sure! 😊 (takes her hand and they walk off together)
Screenshot from Star Trek: Lower Decks. Boimler (far right) talking to Castro (far left). Jennifer and Taylor are in the background behind him.

Gabrielle Ruiz is a national treasure. Which is why we need a team-up story of her LD characters.

"cozy mysteries and romance novels"... Now I'm thinking of T'lyn as a Sherlock Holmes type with Castro as her silly sidekick. (Who has Boimler for a boyfriend.) #startreklowerdecks #lowerdecks #startrek #sherlockholmes #tlyn
Screenshot from Star Trek: Lower Decks The Badgey Directive. T'lyn wearing a coat and deerstalker à la Sherlock Holmes. Screenshot from Star Trek: Lower Decks. Castro wearing Starfleet branded pajamas and passionately telling a story during her "salon."

Castro looking at Boimler with a beard; "You know it!" 😉
Screenshot from Star Trek: Lower Decks. Brad Boimler with a beard. In the distance behind his shoulder you can spot Ransom with a mullet. Screenshot from Star Trek: Lower Decks. Castro looking at Brad Boimler with a raised eyebrow.

It's because he's handsome. In S2 E6, Boimler meets Castro and after about 5 minutes she's already looking at him like this. (and emphasizing the word "lover" in her speech.)
Screenshot from Star Trek: Lower Decks. Castro looking at Brad Boimler and making a vaguely "sexy" pose. (Putting her hand behind her head and raising an eyebrow.)

"I wonder if Boimler would like it if I dressed like the sun-maid raisin girl? Only one way to find out."
Screenshot from Star Trek: Lower Decks The Badgey Directive. Castro making a "thinking" face. (Hand on chin, raised eyebrow etc.)

New headcanon: After S1 E7, Mariner and Ramsey occasionally meet to catch up and play baseball on the holodeck. (Since Mariner served on DS9, I'd like to think she knew Sisko and his love for the game rubbed off on her.) ⚾️ #startreklowerdecks #lowerdecks #startrek #baseball #mariner #beckettmariner
Screenshot from Star Trek: Lower Decks. Beckett Mariner and Amina Ramsey holding hands and looking at each other with excitement.

Yeah... like each other?

(No joke, Boims and Castro as husband and wife trying to raise a child would be hilarious "what if"
scenario.)

What's your unpopular star trek opinion?

T'lyn should switch to medical and become the Vulcan equivalent of Dr. McCoy. #startreklowerdecks #lowerdecks #startrek #tlyn
Image from the Star Trek: Lower Decks comic book issue # 9. Published by IDW. T'lyn is wearing a blue labcoat and standing next to Dr. T'ana.

Screenshot from Star Trek: Lower Decks. Amina Ramsey is laughing while Beckett Mariner is wearing a sea captain's hat and holding a sextant... what? It's the proper name of a navigational tool.

I think the answer's obvious, but let's see?
a meme: white text on a black backdrop: post this on your profile and let your followers associate you with a fictional character that you remind them of

Being flea market famous is great, as long as you're not the "Flea-Market Eating Flea."
Screenshot of a comic book panel depicting a giant flea descending on a flea market. Captain Marvel is flying up to confront it. Text box: "The world's largest flea market on a peaceful afternoon. Suddenly..." Speech bubble # 1: "What's that?!" Speech bubble 2: "Good Grief! It's the giant flea market eating flea!" Speech bubble 3: "He devoured the Englishtown flea market last month... RUN!!" Speech bubble 4: "There's Captain Marvel! Can he save us?"

You're having a dinner party with characters from #StarTrek. What four are you inviting?

(Best double date ever.)

Beckett Mariner. T'lyn. Castro. Instead of a traditional uniform, she is wearing Starfleet branded pajamas. Brad Boimler. He was awkwardly holding a crushed banana.
