very likely stories

Write about a person who, as a kid, was fascinated with the solar system and the universe. How does he/she feel about it all now that he/she is grown up? How does his/her knowledge of what’s beyond our world affect his/her thinking?

Reblogged because this was me as a kid. Space was my favorite thing in the world and Saturn was my favorite planet. Nowadays I don’t think about it a lot, but the moon on the right night and the sound of Saturn and pictures of galaxies still take me back. Thinking about the planets and the rest of the universe is what made me challenge the idea of a single “let there be light” religion as a five year old.

I don’t think I ever really considered how much that one little obsession as a kid stayed with me.

Favorite incarnation of these two ever? =P

You know what’s really funny—when you think about it, they were very much their characters. Geordi spent years of his life falling for every woman who shook her pheromones at him, though at the end of the day, the women all leave and his friendship with Data remains his most steadfast and meaningful relationship. He works through things intuitively.

Data, meanwhile, was “pure mind”—though to be fair, he didn’t shun the softer emotions, like Holmes. He was just incapable of them. Point is, he works through things using pure reason. Also, dem hands.

Okay, not perfect parallels, but just look at them, guh. <3 <3 <3

Geordi “Three Galaxies” La Forge?
