    Summary

    “Why do you avoid me, Soji?”

    She didn’t know what to say. She couldn’t deny it, it was true, but she didn’t want to tell him “you bother me”. It sounded ridiculous when she thought about it. And now she had taken so long to answer that surely he would know she was lying.

    Summary

    A Fix-It for what Star Trek: Picard should have been, erasing their worldbuilding contradictions, adjusting their events, and respecting that other Star Trek series happened and are important.

    Highlights include: how a '90s captain would actually end up with a Borg child, La Sirena crew helping the disenfranchised around the Federation, what the Maquis are up to, how holograms would be affected by the Synth ban, and more!

    DISCLAIMER: All of this (and more) was plotted before PRO S2 actually touched PIC events, with me presuming they wouldn't stretch their timeline enough to actually get to them. I am glad they did and I respect what they did--in fact it's the sort of thing I complain about every other Trek not doing. And also, I like my version too. Maybe, selfishly, I like mine a little better. Basically, presume PRO S2 all happened, but didn't take two years.

    Summary

    Picking up after Alone Among the Silent Stars, Picard, Janeway, and all their friends and family are confronted with the realities of the Synth attacks on Mars, the Synth ban, and what that would have meant and continues to mean for their holographic and cybernetic friends.

    Our old friends battle the political realities of a contracting and, some would argue, bigoted Federation, clinging to their ideals and desperately attempting to drag the Federation back towards those ideals.

    Full of intrigue, adventures, romance, politics, and world-building that's actually coherent and makes god-damned sense, this is an alternate Season 3 of what I wanted PIC to be like. In which actions have consequences and worldbuilding decisions matter.

    Each chapter is one complete "episode," intended to take the place of PIC S3.
