God the (actual) dads are going THRU if this episode.
M’Benga calling Arianna his daughter on accident (OW.) 😭
I also think that’s why Sam gets so pissed at Spock. (Sidenote: Pike breaking it up like a dad being like “HEY! Don’t be mean to Spock, Hemmer you talk first” lol) I mean, he’s not Jim and he’s under a lot of stress. His wife’s either pregnant or his son is a very young baby (I know by operation: annihilate his son’s either 9 or 10). So he’s probably extra on edge about staying alive and shit, so that anger/fear got way displaced.
#not that that justifies what Sam said I hope Spock gets an actual apology from him at some point soon#Sam Kirk#dr mbenga#joseph m’benga#star trek#Star Trek snw#snw#star trek strange new worlds#star trek strange new worlds spoilers#snw spoilers#snw 1x09#all those who wander

I really appreciated how Strange New Worlds portrayed PTSD in ‘Under the Cloak of War’
From the way Chapel and M'Benga disassociated when they were triggered.
To how the two and Ortegas talk about their experiences during the war... Bravo
My favorite line is when Chapel says 'Why is it so hard to explain to people that weren't there?'
When we go through a traumatic experience, it can be hard to connect because we feel that nobody understands what it was like to experience what we have.
Connection is often the first step in healing and just as often it’s the hardest step to take.

SNW drabbles
Little is as little does
Chapel playfully distracted baby nyota as the doctor scanned her and spock. The tiny Vulcan had crossed his arms and slouched on the biobed. “You say we are sick, but I feel fine,” he argued once more.
The captain opened his mouth to explain it, again, when baby spock cut him off. “Your explanations are insufficient. Please do not attempt again until you have collated more data,” he said somewhat smugly.
Pikes mouth snapped shut and he tried to ignore the way the doctor was laughing at him with his eyes.
Chapel held nyotas hand as the Dr drew blood. She didn’t cry, but her lip did quiver dangerously. Chapel also held spocks hand even though he declared he wasn’t a baby and didn’t need her to.
She looked over to Mbenga as they had the same thought that the captain finally voiced, “What about la’an?”
“Maybe just scans,” the doc muttered. Chapel snorted remembering the way his tricorder had flown from his hands earlier.
Una nodded at captain pike as he and the others transported to his quarters…for lunch and to figure out next steps. The captain held spocks hand even though the tiny Vulcan pointed out that it was completely unnecessary as there was no danger of him getting lost during transportation. Tiny uhura gladly held onto the captains other hand as well as Dr mbengas.
Una couldn’t remember the last time she had seen the doctor smile so big as when the little girl eagerly slipped her small hand into his large, but impossibly gentle, hand. He was officially smitten.
Not that una could blame him. She looked down at the tiny package in her own arms. Una still rubbed la’ans back slowly but now tried to sit the little girl up. La’an resisted the movement holding tighter and burying her face further into unas neck.
Una pressed a kiss to the top of la’ans head and rubbed her back soothingly. She spotted chapel approach slowly with tiny sized shorts and tshirt. Una frowned slightly. La’an was always cold. She mouthed at the nurse for socks.
Chapel raised her eyebrows in acknowledgement and spun quickly on her heel. She brought the garments and quietly laid them next to una, who nodded her thanks, and stepped back. She was there in case una needed something. But she knew la’an liked her space.
“La’an, sweet pea,” una said softly. “Its time to change. These clothes are too big.” Una plucked at the uniform engulfing the small child. “Lets put on some that fit you.”
La’an shook her head.
“Please?” una tried.
She could feel the little girl thinking about it. “Just for a second, sweet pea. Then you can come back just like you are now.” Una chose her words carefully. For as long as shed known la’an, her friend had been worried about appearing weak, about being…needy.
La’an hesitated for several breaths. Then she slowly sat up and allowed una to put her down. But she wasn’t happy about it. She blinked fiercely and her breaths were short and hitched. She numbly shucked off the ginormous uniform then held her arms up as una slipped the tshirt on her. She clutched onto unas shoulder as she lifted one leg then the other through the soft shorts.
Una quickly slipped on the little girls socks one at a time even as la’an shivered and a tear slipped out and trailed down her cheek.
Una felt her heart want to break in two. “Hey sweet pea,” she cooed. She stared into la’ans terrified eyes and gently wiped away the tear. La’an leaned into her touch and held her arms up hesitantly, like she knew what she wanted but wasn’t sure how to ask for it. If she could ask for it.
Una scooped the little girl back up and held her tightly. “Youre okay la’an,” she said quietly as she rubbed the girls back. The tiny figure in her arms just shook. Silently. Unas heart crumbled a little further at that, because she knew it was engrained so deeply in la’an that it remained with her even in this state. Especially in this state. Anything besides absolute silence, meant potential death.
They sat like that on the floor, with la’an in unas lap, her face buried in unas neck and una holding her tight rubbing her back. But finally she heard la’ans stomach growl. “La’an, sweet pea, are you ready to join the others?”
La’an didn’t say anything but she stiffened slightly.
Una quickly added, still rubbing the little girls back. “We can join them, but I don’t have to put you down. You can stay just like you are.” She let la’an think about it a moment. “How does that sound?”
Finally, the tiny head nodded into unas neck. Una smiled. “Okay,” she said softly as she carefully stood up. She nodded to chapel who closed her tricorder and tucked it into her uniform. She had scanned la’an looking for anything amiss then used it to passively monitor the girls vitals.
Chapel quickly typed in the commands to the sickbay transporter and an instant later she, una and baby la’an materialized in the captains quarters.

That Which Survives (live reaction):
Oh no this is where they get stuck on the planet and risk starving right? (I saw the trek-tracks tarsus iv theory on this one)
YAY Sulu gets to go on an away mission! It’s been way too long!!
That was probably the most expensive cheap looking set piece ever
Lol, Spock over explaining having smacked his head
Sulu already getting fatalistic already (Cleithrophobia, fear of being trapped) also DONT U DARE suggest Jim’s family exploded he already had a horrible time in MoG
Aww Sulu & Chekov are buddies confirmation :)
DR MBENGA IS HERE!!!!!! :D
Not taking any Scotty’s shit today huh Spock? Damn.
Plant dad Sulu!
Kirk is immediately in Survival Mode OOF.
Listen man... George Takei was PRETTY back in the day Dayum 😏
Dude is like “hello pretty lady! I like rocks!”
Who is this death touch lady?
Blue shirt death! How rare!
Spock being grumpy at Scotty! It’s cuz Bones isn’t there to loudly remind him of the value of intuition.
Sulu is Sad 😔 he probably worked close with the geology division as the resident xenobotanist. That’s twice someone who clearly worked closely with him that we ever really got to see has died (Joey from The Naked Time is the other). I NEED BACKSTORY FOR MY BOY!
Lots of messed up deaths that clearly were friends of supporting characters, yikes! First Tiomatto (Sulu) now Watkins (Scotty)
I think TOS Sulu is bi (it’d make sense)
Maaaaan I know they don’t kill Sulu but that was WAY too close
Oh- it didn’t kill Jim? Why does she wanna kill Sulu?!
“ARE THERE MEN ON THIS PLANET” LMAO
Oh! More fuel for my “Scotty has Astrophobia” theory!
Weird cinematic parallel to Wrath of Khan between Scotty & Spock there. Oh hey! Spock (kinda) apologized to Scotty. Yay?
Scotty gonna save the day!!!!
SCOTTY JUST CALLED SPOCK A CUCKOO CLOCK IM DEAD 😂😂😂
I think death touch lady is a robot (got confirmed I am smrt)
Family blocks Captain with bodies awwwwwwww
“Are you lonely?” *Taps the fuck out* MEEEEEEE
HELL YEAH MISTER SCOTT!
ROBO LADIES STRAIGHT UP DESPAWNED 😂
Jim’s so relieved they’re both like “thank goodness you’re alive! 😍”
Oooh environmentalist message on top okay! Hits different during pandemic tho... yikes.
Oooh and a lil’ feminism to boot okay I see u Star Trek!
Pretty good episode! Lots of good side character action! Heck yeah!

Do you even lift, Bro Una
Una carries this crew. Literally.
“This really isn’t necessary,” la’an informed una as the commander approached.
“Of course, it is,” chapel contradicted her cheerfully from across the room. “You won the bet, didn’t you?”
La’ans eyes narrowed. “I don’t remember any bet.“
“I also do not remember committing to a wager-“ spock started.
Ortegas loud sigh cut him off. She rolled her eyes as she took a sip of her drink. “Whoever won the captains murder mystery dinner party, was to be carried in victory while the rest of us mere mortals cheered her name.” She shot them an impatient look. “It was in the invites.”
“It most certainly was not,” spock corrected her.
Uhura rolled her eyes and leaned towards him. “Just be glad we talked her out of insisting we call the winner the Supreme Investigative Detecting Queen of the Enterprise, for a week.”
Spocks eyebrow arched impressively. “Indeed. That would have been worse.”
“Oh, I don’t know,” the captain mused. “It might have been fun.” The scowl la’an sent him made him grin even more. He leaned casually into his counter with one hand tucked into the pocket of his 1920s style trousers, the arm holding back the large, beige coat and his other rested on a thin strip of elastic that held up his pants, cleverly called-suspenders.
“What I want to know,” Dr Mbenga started, tilting the fedora he wore so it sat more roguishly, “Is how you figured out who the killer was?”
“Yeah,” uhura added. Her shimmery white dress was full of fringe and sparkles. It seemed to flap and dance every time she moved. She had a white headband that complimented the outfit perfectly. “How did you know?”
La’an just tilted her head. She was in black trousers, a dark blue button-up shirt with a black vest. Una had tried to convince her to wear a black fedora with it, but la’an hadn’t been sold on it. Though, looking at Mbenga now using the hat to such effect, made her wish she had. “I AM chief of security.”
Una rolled her eyes. “Yes. But the captain has been working on this for WEEKS. Getting the scenarios and the clues just right. How did you figure it out so quickly?” She wore a dark blue gown that was the same color of a midnight sky during a meteor shower, with a large, feathery contraption draped around her neck and shoulders. The feathers were silver and she had on matching long, silver gloves that went up to her elbows.
La’an raised an eyebrow then opened her mouth.”
“Wait!” ortegas cut in. “Don’t tell us.” The pilot had on a slightly oversized suit, hat and tie, which she assured them all was ‘peak gangster attire’.
“What do you mean, don’t tell?” chapel asked, confused. The nurse wore dark slacks, a white button up shirt only half buttoned and black suspenders. She had shiny black cufflinks that gleamed and caught the light as she moved her hands and matched her shining black shoes.
“Well, I think she should tell us. Because I, for one, would love to know how miss smarty pants figured it out so quickly,” pelia remarked over the drink she held in both hands. The diminutive blonde wore pinstriped trousers and matching vest over a red long-sleeved shirt. She also had a confusing amount of paraphernalia with her costume-pocket watch, several broaches, embroidered pocket square, jewelry and neck scarf. Everyone had the sneaky suspicion they were all genuine, but no one wanted to ask where/how/when pelia had acquired them. They all knew how the louvre was still calling about some painting…
“But if she tells us, it will ruin it for next time,” ortegas protested. The others thought about this.
“There will be a next time?” spock asked, slightly alarmed. He wore dark trousers with a dark blue button-up shirt, light blue suspenders and a matching blue bowtie. A grey, wool cap sat awkwardly on his head, but only because Christine had insisted he wear it.
“Of course there will be!” the captain exclaimed excitedly. “Next month im thinking of…”
But la’an couldn’t hear what the captain was planning for the next obligatory staff bonding session since una stood right in front of her and motioned for la’an to stand up.
La’an raised her eyebrows. “Seriously?”
Una just smirked. “Its this or,” she made a small mock bow. “Supreme Investigative Detecting Quee-“
La’an held up her hands with an eye roll. “Fine,” she agreed and stood up. At least this way it would be over quickly.
Una grinned. She stood next to her friend, bent slightly, and grabbed la’an around the waist. She straightened and easily lifted the Lt to her shoulder, holding la’an in place with a steady grip on her legs. The room erupted into delirious cheers. Una carried la’an three times around the captains quarters on her shoulder, with the others roaring their approval.
By the end, even though she still felt a little self-conscious, la’an grinned giddily. She laughed and looked down at una. The sight of her friend, who normally towered over la’an, shorter than her made la’an laugh even harder.
Una grinned at the sparkle in her friends eyes. She winked and la’an squeezed her shoulder. Her friend leaned over and shouted, “Who was going to carry you, if you’d won?” she asked breathlessly.
Una looked over to spock who cheered somewhat stiffly, lifting the hat off his head and waving it methodically in the air. “I believe mr spock would have been called to fulfill that duty.”
La’an and una shared a look then they both burst out laughing. Finally, only somewhat regretfully, una set la’an carefully back on the deck. She kept a hold of la’ans shoulders in case her friend stumbled, but of course la’an was as steady as a rock.
La’an shot her that side eyed smile. “Thanks chief,” she said softly.
Una smiled equally as soft and couldn’t stop herself from pulling la’an into a crushing embrace. Her friend hesitated only a moment before she returned it, then stood back.
“Come on,” una said conspiratorially. “Lets get out of here before the captain sets us to doing the dishes.”
La’an grinned and headed for the doors, not needing to be told twice.
