I love the idea of Trip and T'Pol together, but I haven't seen enough of their on screen togetherness (I'm catching episodes on SyFy when I can, so my background in the show is quite disjointed) to feel I can contribute properly. I know they end up having some sort of relationship but I don't know details and I don't want to sound stupid, lol.

Good gravy, darlin', you won't sound stupid! I understand if you don't want to be spoiled until you see the whole show. But if you like the idea of Trip/T'Pol, you're good to go! Other TnT shippers (surely there's more left on this board besides me ) will be happy to bring you up to speed.


Aaaaaand keeping the post legal...

Connor tweeted that he had knee surgery today.

Oh dear. The only worse than having knee surgery is NOT having it when you need it.

I hope he has a speedy recovery.

I hope Connor is doing better he tweeted Thanking his fans for the get well wishes and said he's on Pain meds and practicing his guitar.Creekchub can catch up on watching Enterpise episodes for free at Cbs.com to see how Trip&T'Pol's relationship began.

Nice to see the Trip love is alive and well, but it's a shame that the last Trip/T'Pol appreciation thread basically died from neglect. Has TnT love gone the way of the dinosaur?

First of all, thanks for finding more Trip threads.

Second of all, I hope TnT haven't gone the way of the dinosaurs. I just wrote my first TnT fan fic. Well, actually, it's my first fan fic, period.
It's on Triaxian Silk and the Delphic Expanse fan fic site.

I'm a fan of Trip&T'Pol and just the other day on another board there was a discussion of what did they think would happen in the next Romulan war novel comong out in October.The Tnt fans hope,Trip& T'Pol will have a major storyline continue on Vulcan. in the next Romulan war book.Someone posted the tempearary cover of the next Enterpise novel and it has Archer T'Pol and Trip on the cover.

I'm not worried about being spoiled, especially since I'm seeing the episodes so out of order. Heck, I've already seen "These Are The Voyages" so I know what happens there.

I am just very aware that I don't know many details about Trip and T'Pol's relationship...but if anyone would like to fill me in, I'm quite ready to listen. It's driving me nuts that I have to rely on SyFy to get my fix. I'm hoping my husband is picking up the hints I keep dropping about how the DVDs would make a nice birthday gift.

JiNX-01, I found your fic and am looking forward to reading it.

Cool. Hope you like it.

I didn't like the way the TnT relationship was written. Apparently nobody on the writing staff had any kind of handle on how to bring a Vulcan and a human together in an adult relationship. So what did we get? Adolescent angst. Trip loves her but never tells her so. T'Pol clearly wants to be emotionally close to Trip, but never takes the step. (it's pretty clear based on episodes like Fusion, Damage and Home that she knows she doesn't have the same level of emotional control as other Vulcans. So why doesn't she just go ahead and take ownership of her own feelings and let the rest of Vulcan social norms be damned?

^^ But that's why there's fanfiction.

I do have another TnT fan fic in mind. Just haven't figured out how to do it so it works.

That's why I wrote fanfic. To fix what didn't go right on the show (particularly in the MU -- even though I love those episodes too. )

Jinx I'm glad you're writing another Trip&T'Pol story.One thing that's great about fanfiction if you fix a story plot you don't care for. Is there something wrong with twitter page? I keep trying get Connor's twitter page to load and all I get is the fail whale or a blank page.

THUGs, this is the cover of the German language version of The Good That Men Do. Reanok was nice enough to send it to me so it could be shared here.
