I wouldn't touch it that's for sure

if had a binge like that

**crazy_diamond** · 03-30-2020, 12:15 PM

Riker's look as well

crash landing · 03-30-2020, 12:23 PM

He was so amused

and didn't blame him cause I surely was

Another favorite scene of Troi's of mine is when she tells Riker what chocolate means to her

**crazy_diamond** · 03-30-2020, 12:31 PM

Yes we all know that feeling

I could go for some of that ice cream she was having in that scene

***Chris*** · 03-30-2020, 01:41 PM

Ice cream is on my shopping list this week.

crash landing · 03-30-2020, 01:52 PM

This whole pandemic is hard on everyone, in a lot of different ways. I’m incredibly lucky so far, and I don’t have to worry about food or going broke, but I’ve been *really* feeling how I don’t have loving, unselfish parents in my life who I can lean on, and get comfort from, while I do my best to get through all of this.
Yesterday, LeVar organized a Zoom thingy for all of us from TNG, because normally we would be together for Marina’s birthday, but obviously we can’t do that this year.
For about 90 minutes or so, we all hung out, visited with each other, loved each other, laughed our faces off, and felt connected, as a family.

I didn’t realize until long after we had ended the thing, just how much it meant to me to be with my family, the family that loves me unconditionally, unselfishly, simply because I exist. I’ve been so focused on being a reliable husband and father, I haven’t had a moment to exhale, and just be a son who is scared and anxious and needs parents to just tell him everything is going to be okay, and who will acknowledge that he’s doing the best that he can.
I got all of that from my Star Trek family, at a time when I didn’t even know just how much I needed it. I feel like I’ve been holding my breath for weeks, and yesterday, I exhaled for the first time.
And can I just take a moment to observe how totally cool it is that we were using a real technology to be together, a technology that we used to pretend was real, for our job. I can’t prove that video conferencing like this exists because of Next Generation, but I can certainly choose to believe that we played some part in inspiring the engineers who developed it.
Wherever you are, I hope you’re getting the love and support that you need and deserve.
We’re all going to get through this, together.

Aw, that is so sweet!

I'll bet that's still a little unsettling for all of them to realize how many things they used to pretend about are now real.

It was really sweet of the TNG cast to gather on zoom to celebrate Marina's birthday! I love little stories like these.

crash landing · 03-31-2020, 09:48 AM

Its so incredible they got together like that

***Chris*** · 03-31-2020, 10:31 AM

Maintaining their friendship is obviously a real priority for all of them.

crash landing · 03-31-2020, 10:52 AM

Agreed

saw about that last night cause my Chris co-mod shared it on the general ST I made sure to make

These are so lovely, great they still had a chance to celebrate together in some form.

Btw anyone know what's going on with wil wheaton and his parents. I read more than once that they literally hate each other.
