What Else Does Captain's Woman Do?
- Thread starter Spock's Barber
- Start date
That's Lt. JG Adler.Irene Adler?
What an awesome Trek character she would be...
Irene Adler?
Now that's the hallmark of a seasoned, well rounded, and astute member of this august institution!!!!!
Of course, not what would have occurred to me in my parochial small mindedness in a million years, but....I think I can say that in both of these constructs, we find women of rare and multifaceted gifts, one unfortunately or not, rather more greatly of a malign nature than the other. I say or not, because without the Empress and her savageness, we would never have seen Glass Empires including Spock's brilliant strategic turn as Emperor.
Remember that scene in the brig (on the regular universe Enterprise)? We all saw what mirror Kirk was really like. Does he look like the sort of person who is capable of having an actual romantic relationship? God only knows how somebody that insane would have treated Marlena...I bet McCoy has to patch her up every day.

Very badly indeed! Just look at his Enemy Within character to see what I mean!

I don't think that's typical of Mirror-Kirk. That's him in a blind rage because he's suddenly found himself NOT in charge of the Enterprise and locked up in the brig. Can you really imagine Mirror-Spock working with that foaming-at-the-mouth guy for any length of time?
You'll notice that the Mirror versions of McCoy, Scotty, and Uhura are all equally loud, upset, and unpleasant in that scene. Yet, Mirror-Spock still describes Mirror-McCoy as being "sentimental" and "soft" (granted, by Mirror-Universe standards, but still). So obviously the Mirror crew has as many moods as the regular crew does.
And that was in fact the mirror McCoy that Spock was talking about? He hadn't met the regular version yet?
That is a good point that you raised, but even if it was the mirror version, that's also the same McCoy who operates a sickbay that is a "chamber of horrors". So even if the mirror crew does have a lot of moods, I doubt any of them are good. Certainly not romantic. (Hell, I wonder if humans in that universe are even capable of love...they sure don't show it.)
Well, evil people are still capable of falling in love. Hitler and Eva Braun were a thing.
From the evidence, albeit scant , that's provided, I don't doubt that Mirror McCoy is little different than what we saw in Mirror Phlox , many years later. Both sadistic, running torture experiments on animals, betting on the endurance of pain riddled patients. They both sound as if Dr. Mengele might have been an inspiration and icon to them.
I want you to elaborate on that...
Sex I assume.
It may be "obvious" to a male youth with fantasies of a female yeoman, but the reality is different. So I'd really like to know what was obvious in the OP's mind, whether the OP is female with assumptions about males, or a male with assumptions about female yeomen. I'm not offended or anything. I'm just the curious type about these things.
^ Just for laughs, I wondered what else the Captain's Woman did in the mirror universe.
I could see that in a MU version of "Balance of Terror" that after Stiles failed to fire phasers after Kirk's first command. That the Captain's woman happily skipped down to Sickbay, where he was recovering from coolant exposure. And slit his throat.
Ok, you've used the word "obvious," and now the phrase "what else," but you haven't actually stated what's in your mind with either of these. Getting coffee? Maid? Ship's assistant engineer? Wife? Confidant? Whore?
Or just used the Tantalus Field on him.
I think it's obvious that the Captain's woman is basically his mistress.
But maybe that mainly involves playing patty cake like in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit."

Unless there are whips and chains, and she makes him bark like a dog.
You did say mistress.
You did say mistress.
