Thanks for the writing! I’m interested in seeing how you get our boy his own ship :)

I really really thought about doing the Enterprise Borg episode, because IMO it's the best episode of the series. But we're already past that. That was a Season 2 ep, while the Xindi is Season 3. Plus the Borg have so much weight to them, I don't want to water them down by bringing them in early. On the Discovery being canon... Oh boy, this is so controversial, but I'll give my take. As far as I'm concerned, there are two timelines in Star Trek. Prime and Kelvin. That's it. Enterprise, Discovery, SNW, Lower Decks, Prodigy, and Picard are all Prime timeline, canon. I think people don't want Discovery to be canon because they don't like it. People don't like the spore drive and how it invalidates the premise of Voyager. People don't like the visuals because it seems too advanced for that time. And people don't like the technology because some of it is beyond what we had in TNG era. All of these are valid criticisms. I rationalize everything being in a single timeline (minus the Abrams movies) through the Unreliable Narrator Paradox. Watching TOS and SNW brings a different taste, a different visual style, but shares some characters, etc. I try to look at it as if I'm watching the story told by two different people through their lens. Having different people tell the same story, some details always get changed, and that's how I view Star Trek. It lets me ignore the small inconsistencies and create my own series of events that make up my 'headcanon'. Ultimately, I think it's not as serious as the fanbase makes it out to be. There are all kinds of inconsistencies in Trek. Having a universe that spans multiple decades, shows, and movies, this happens. One that comes to mind for me is in Voyager, particularly the plotline where the ship is duplicated in 'Demon' then the duplicate is destroyed in 'Course: Oblivion'. Course: Oblivion is a great episode, sad, but great. But consider the implications. Everything that happened between those episodes... didn't really happen to Voyager, it happened to the duplicate ship. Including some good episodes like Dark Frontier, where the Borg try to reclaim Seven of Nine and Drone, where there's that Borg drone created from Seven of Nine's DNA and the doctor's mobile emitter. But the biggest two episodes of importance are Hope and Fear and Timeless. Hope and Fear is the Dauntless episode where they encounter Slipstream technology. Timeless is the Episode where Harry Kim makes it back to Earth (using slipstream tech), and Voyager is lost on the ice planet. In Course:Oblivion, that Voyager was destroyed and never got a message out, so the real Voyager never knew about them. It should have been a Year of Hell situation... So, how did Harry make it back to Earth without feeling the same effects in Timeless? And an even bigger plothole, How did Janeway get a Dauntless in Prodigy? The real Voyager should never have known about the Dauntless or Slipstream technology. Okay. Tangent over. I'll get back to writing now.

Nice. Please tell me Tyson gets to join the NX-01 to steal a borg Scout ship (and possibly crew?) šŸ˜† 🤣 also I find it hilarious that Discovery is no longer considered canon. Ro Laren is an interesting choice. She is hot too. (Yes, I freely admit that would be my primary criteria, lol) don't even get me started on Picard. Not sure about Bashir. Sure he's an augment and doctor but he's not Crusher lol. Your point about the Section 31 fuckups in canon are definitely true. One minute it's a super secret squirrel agency and then the next fucking everyone knows about them. It'll be fun to see what kind of ship they give Tyson though, cause you know he's gonna upgrade the fuck out of it.
