Hi all!
Just had a thought that since I had great fun following the recently released season 5 of Star Trek: Discovery—starring CKR—and giffing my way through it, I might as well share the gifs! Maybe you'll also enjoy the ears, the uniform and the intensity. Here they are.
There's also a cool piece of art (not mine) here, and a fic I wrote for a kind-of-rarepair here.
Um, and if you wanna watch it and not bother with streaming/torrents I uploaded it here for now.
Have fun etc etc!

Appreciate the links.

Date: 2024-06-14 05:32 pm (UTC)I used to have a tumblr account, but got so frustrated. I was constantly getting porn spam and I found it difficult to interact with other fans. It's great for graphics, but not a great platform for communication.
I love Star Trek. I've watched nearly every spin off. The only two shows I haven't liked are Enterprise and Discovery. While Discovery has some diversity and I like the gay couple, the show itself is chaotic and bland. I really dislike most of the storylines and the main character as well as Tilly. So, CKR's Rayner is the only reason I would watch the last season. He made a crucial difference.

Date: 2024-06-14 05:48 pm (UTC)I very much agree on "chaotic and bland", haha. That's exactly the feeling. As per discussion I had elsewhere, it's been fun following this season for him, but it'd be cooler to see him in something he doesn't have to elevate, you know.

Date: 2024-06-14 03:52 pm (UTC)Well, and now that resulted in me having started watching the original series, so that's an extra bonus!
And yes haha Roy always trips me up when I return to that spn episode!

Date: 2024-06-24 10:09 pm (UTC)But most especially, I love the very first gif in this posting (https://flownwrong.tumblr.com/post/747008519776157696/callum-keith-rennie-as-captain-rayner-in-star) - because that is SO PERFECT!! OMFG I absolutely ❤️ that you giffed that because CKR does that EXACT SAME LITTLE SMIRK/GRIN in either one of the official episodes, or the S3-4 blooper reel - and IT IS TO DIE FOR. I can't believe he did it again - but I'm so glad he did! - and it looks SO GOOD on him, no matter his age!
And the hands gifs - asl;dkjfa;lskdjfal;sdkj I'll just be flailing over here. Thank you so much!
Thank you so very, very much for your picspam giffing from ST: Discovery! it is ALL AWESOME!!

Date: 2024-06-25 10:53 am (UTC)I know what you mean, that grin is insane-making. Patented CKR charisma. And oh my god, the age looks GREAT on him in Discovery. I wasn't following the show at all and only watched s5 with no context for him, but his grip on me is so strong I'm still itching to write one more fic with him, even though I wasn't even planning to write the first one it just happened haha. It's not a very enjoyable show, but he makes up for everything else.
Without spoiling anything, I can just say that this is another case of him elevating the material, ha. He does great things with his character that I am certain most other people wouldn't have. So, yeah. Yell when you watch it!

Date: 2024-06-25 10:37 pm (UTC)omg, now I'm looking forward to it even more. Of course, I'd rather the material be elevated anyway, but I'll take CKR elevating the material! I'm FINE with that! 🙂
