Go back a little and see who invented the Kolvoord starburst. Possibly not one of the people who died doing it. What lead to its invention? Was there a tactical reason, or just some show-off Kirk wannabe name Kolvoord? In "The First Duty", its last deadly performance happened over 100 years prior to Nova Squadron doing it. Memory alpha says the TNG episode took place in 2368 - over a hundred years ago means Kirk may have been in Starfleet at the time.

Be careful what you wish for; let me tell you a story of Marissa Picard...

Reading the list of tropes was good for a laugh. I almost want to know how Wesley managed to

I'm a little confused. Don't some of these count as story ideas?

 

[trampledamage]

From my reading, they don't cross the line because they're general ideas about what people would like to see rather than descriptions about how it should be achieved - but if I've missed something please let me know.

 

[DGCatAniSiri]

I'm of the opinion that Vash should have reappeared on DS9 once or twice. I know that her mirror counterpart was involved in things, and that she appeared in the Millennium trilogy, which included elements that would be incompatible with her reappearing in the modern novels, but personally, I'd be willing to broad stroke that if it meant she reappeared (plus there were time travel shenanigans involved, so who's to say that there aren't two versions of her running around?)

Ah, I see - that makes sense. Sorry to bother.

 

[Enterprise1701]

I'm surprised that the Voyager relaunch hasn't made any mention of Mezoti, Azan, and Rebi. One would think that the Voyager crew would want to check up on their former charges and potential allies.

And on the subject of ex-Borg, I still don't like how the Voyager novels made no mention of Hugh's group despite them being close to Federation space than the former Cooperative. It would be nice to know if Rebekah Grabowski succeeded in having her child or not.

I think she was great but I also don't want her to return....I think.

I generally agree that fictional resurrections should be kept to an absolute minimum, if at all. But IIRC, in this case didn't the "death" happen off-screen, behind "enemy" lines? If she's really just "missing and presumed dead", then I'm OK with it if she were to suddenly return.

No bother it's always better that you question it, if you think there's a problem

Yeah, I almost immediately thought of a story she could appear in as I was writing that. If she returned before Bajor joined the Federation, there's a storyline here someone suggested before http://www.trekbbs.com/threads/bajorans-in-starfleet-on-deep-space-nine-a-missed-opportunity.136162/

Someone mentioned it in another thread and it reminded me of this one; I've always wondered what the I.K.S. T'Ong from "The Emissary" was doing that required a 75-year round trip and cryogenically freezing the crew. What possible business could the Klingons have that was 30 years away from their space?

Well, there was that Voyager episode "Prophecy" where a Klingon ship was in the Delta Quadrant looking for the kuvah'magh. It's not unheard of.

I thought the episode made it clear that the T'Ong crew's mission was a long-term investment in the ongoing cold war against the Federation.

What I've always wondered, given that in the next few years Worf became a rather high-profile Klingon, didn't the captain of the T'Ong get pissed over being tricked?

The T'Ong was on an officially sanctioned mission. The Klingons in Prophecy were not.

 

[Enterprise1701]

I just rewatched part of "Message in a Bottle", and I would like to see the return of the EMH Mark 2 from the Prometheus. Sure Starfleet updates its EMHs, but I wonder if it's possible that Andy Dick's EMH will return in Star Trek: Prometheus.

K'Temoc may not have been happy about being duped, but if he had destroyed the Enterprise (which was just about to happen, if the Ent-D crew hadn't done something, and done it fast) he would have committed treason against the Empire - since their alliance with the Federation made the T'Ong's original mission null and void - and then he'd have to kill himself.

As it stands, K'Temoc was probably grateful that he was given the chance to get out of this situation with his honor intact and without going against Empire policy.

 

[The Wormhole]

Still, I imagine if him and Worf ever met again, he's likely punching Worf. But then that is the Klingon hello, isn't it?

Assuming that they were even sapient enough to realize that they were.

(Which, if that species was sapient and so Janeway and Paris were conscious of what they were doing while mating, would actually manage to make Threshhold even worse to me, which is impressive.)

That stuck an image in my head of an alien salamander standing on the edge of a cliff overlooking an alien forest, staring up at the night sky with a full moon pondering the meaning of life and existence.
