Star Trek makes me wish I studied STEM yo
WAIT WAIT WAIT
If Tendi is going to be part of a bridge officer training program, she’s probably going to get promoted soon and she won’t be lower decks anymore ;(
Tendi and Rutherford are lieutenant commanders now??
What IF... Mirabel joined the crew of the Cerritos
Here are some Crossover Ideas with the movie Encanto and the animated series Star Trek: Lower Decks
1.) Mirabel, feeling despondent because of Antonio's gift ceremony being a success, (don't get me wrong she is still happy for him but is sad because she thinks he will eventually abandon her like the rest of her family.) decides to take an evening walk through the empty village. Suddenly she is captured by Orion Pirates and taken off world, probably to be sold as a slave or something. After a few days in captivity, she is rescued by the crew of the Cerritos and that is how she also learns about Star Fleet. With some convincing from Mirabel, and the anomalous situation of Mirabel not existing in any records on Earth, Captain Freeman decides to let Mirabel join the Cerritos as an ensign under the mentorship of Dvana Tendi. Mirabel would then go on to make friends with the rest of the Cerritos crew (mainly Beckett Mariner, Brad Boimler, Rutherford and so on) and go on amazing space adventures while learning to be herself. As a Plot twist I thought maybe Mirabel would be forced to return to earth to help with an unusual anomaly appearing in Columbia. The anomaly in question is a giant Golden dome that appeared in a region of Columbia that was said not be on any map. It turns out when Alma was given the Miracle created by Pedro's sacrificed it also encased the entire Encanto in a Time Bubble. so instead of the Encanto village being fifty years old, like the movie said, several centuries have passed. And when the Miracle broke, because Mirabel wasn't there to save the family, the time bubble also faded exposing Encanto to the new future age. So now a reluctant Mirabel is tasked with trying to integrate the citizens of Encanto into the new age while trying to avoid her family who haven't seen her in over a year.
2.) A few weeks after Mirabel's failed gift ceremony the Madrigals have all but abandoned her. A depressed Mirabel takes a walk in the jungle and gets abducted by Orion Pirates. She is then taken to Orion to be auctioned off as a slave but is then adopted by D'vana Tendi's parents as her and her sister's playmate. As time goes on the Tendi's grow to accept Mirabel as part of the family and train her in the ways of Orion Pirates. When D'vana tells her sisters she wants to join Star Fleet Mirabel decides to go with her. They both join and get assigned to the Cerritos as Ensigns.
that's all I got so far; I hope some of you find these ideas Inspiring.
As the Vulcans say
Live Long and Prosper, Friends
If you haven’t read it yet, then check out The Tendi Trap on ao3! It addresses this and other plot holes throughout the series! (Not totally season 4 compliant, though). I highly recommend it!
Do you think it is at all possible that, in the 24th century, it would be possible for someone to hack Starfleet records and actually create an entry for an officer?
I don't know. I was listening to the episode "Grounded" yesterday (I like to listen to shows while I work), and Tendi mentioned the Academy. I know she also mentioned not really getting out that much, but...she was in San Francisco for a time, and yet the first time she saw sand was in the holodeck in the pilot episode? It's been awhile since I've been to SF, so maybe I am overestimating how much sand is there, but it seems like a weird thing. She never went to any place in SF that might have sand? Maybe a park with a sandbox, even? I assume they still have sandboxes in the 24th century, but perhaps I assume too much.
This all goes back to my "sleeper agent" theory. Maybe Tendi never went to the Academy, or Earth, if it IS possible to just hack in and make her an officer.
I don't really believe my theory, but wouldn't it be crazy if I was right all this time?
been watching lower decks lately. i like tendi a lot :3
hmmm...still old one,never posted,storage as well
