Spoilers Season 2 Trailer

[cultcross]

Get them to work together on something.

Besides growing biker metal hair

 

[Lord Garth]

Kronos one, in other words

I think you called it. If the Empire's back together again, she needs a ship... and they all need to agree on what a D7 is. Maybe that's what they were fighting about. If you're going to have a Canon War, fight it like a Klingon!

It all works.

@Time is the Fire in case it wasn't obvious from my two posts on the subject and my changing the subject to red angels, I'm trying to move the thread on, and back to the topic at hand. Please could we drop the canon debate for this thread?

Could be a plot hook for later.

According to the NYCC panel, L’Rell is still trying to follow T’Kuvma’s dream of uniting the houses, but she’s going to do it in her own way, not T’Kuvma’s.

The D7 could be her trying to unite the houses technology. Get them to work together on something.

A traditionalist evoking old starships from back when a Klingon could beat up Archer with pride

I quite like Pike in this trailer, mostly because he's so much less of an asshole than Lorca was.

Sorry, yes of course.

Edit to add (since I didn't see it earlier):

I'm wondering whether the Klingons are investigating a Red Angel in parallel, and taking a different approach, in a similar setup to the film Arrival. Perhaps this is the origin of the little bot things which seem to attack them in the asteroid field (and potentially downed Notaro's ship).

I'm interested in how the faith/science element plays in though. It raises the possibility that the 'Angels' are benevolent beings primarily, or whether they are presenting a front. Certainly I hope it doesn't end up in a battle.

This is my interest as well. I personally love the idea of exploring what these angelic beings might be, if they are interested in the affairs of mortals as well as different cultures interpretations of them. I am truly hoping for a benevolent race rather than the usual "false god" trope.

He definitely comes across much more as the traditional Starfleet Captain than either Lorca or Saru ever did. While I'd still, overall, prefer it if the show wasn't mining the Enterprise for continuity porn, I think I'm going to like Pike as a character.

Honestly having Pike in DSC doesn't bother me that much, because we know very little about him in the Prime Timeline

Before this we had only 3 episodes with him, and two of those just re-hashed info from the first.

So there is a lot they can do with him.

Isn't that pretty much everyone?

 

[Jinn]

Isn't that pretty much everyone?

Yeah, but not everyone is the Captain of the Discovery

Give it time. Everyone will get a chance. My number is 2,935,614,740

The Captain they were due to pick up on Vulcan is probably getting pissy by now

Decided to take the Intrepid assignment with all Vulcans. That will show them!

 

[Lord Garth]

Sadly, I can't command Discovery. I'm already off commanding a ship of my own in 2257.

On the other hand, if they can borrow Pike for a season, I guess they could borrow me too. And piss off the Axanar Crowd.

"oh hai Captain Terrel. Sorry about the Discovery getting diverted but you are in luck. We got you the Reliant!" - Star Fleet command

 

[Groppler Zorn]

Maybe having a new captain every year will be DSC’s “thing”?

Like dark arts professors at Hogwarts?

Other Star Trek series have the First Season, the Second Season... we'll have the Lorca Season, the Pike Season, etc.

Or English teachers at my high school.

They left in less dramatic ways though...
