It surprises me when people say Chapel doesn’t have a trait, personality, or plotline other than being Spock’s love interest... Let me list all the things we know and have seen about this amazing character.

Christine Chapel is a nurse on The Enterprise. She is on civilian exchange from the Stanford Morehouse Epigenetic Project. She is also a part of Starfleet’s initiative to better observe alien cultures without contamination.

M’Benga treats her as an equal. Pike called her “doctor” in the very first episode which suggests that her medical knowledge and experience must be impressive.

She is an expert on genetic modification. She can mess with your genome and temporarily turn you into an Alien. And she makes it look easy.

She is also interested in archeological medicine. She is doing fieldwork, making discoveries, and writing papers on the subject while doing her other duties on the ship.

Long story short she is quite the genius!

She is outgoing, friendly, witty, funny, adventurous, strong, brave but also compassionate and emotional.

She doesn’t judge, she accepts people for who they are.

She is confident in her abilities. She doesn’t take anyone’s BS. “I don’t think the Vulcan Fellowship is ready for me”… No one, not even Vulcans can bully or make her feel insecure.

But when she was a kid she was bullied. Milo, her Malamute, bit one of those bullies. Good boy!

As it was implied in one of the episodes she is most probably bi.

She has a vulnerable side. She is afraid of commitment. Afraid of romantic relationships getting deep. Perhaps even afraid of falling in love. She uses humor when things get too serious or personal for her. There is a story waiting to unfold in time. And i can’t wait to know more of it!

She was in the Klingon War with M'Benga. They witnessed the ugly face of war and had to make some hard decisions. They used (perhaps even developed) an illegal serum that temporarily gives them enough power and stamina to survive against Klingons. This left a scar on her as much as it did on M'Benga. We will revisit this story in episode 8 (i guess).

She knows how to fight. She is a quick thinker during stressful situations. And she is a badass. For example, she can handle space pirates and all she needs is a hypospray! She can deal with baby Gorns and survive!

She is heroic. She would jump into space without an EV suit to prevent a war.

Oh and she is also Spock's love interest and it's a delicious relationship that enrichens both characters.

This is what we got in 15 episodes. I'm sure we'll learn more about her and she will get new storylines in the seasons to come.

#in this house we stan Christine Chapel #haters gonna hate #btw romance doesn't destroy a female character if its well written #but romance is not Chapel's only thing #you just have to watch the episodes #and care about the character #jess bush is a gem #she is such a great actress #christine chapel #my favorite character in SNW #star trek strange new worlds #strange new worlds #star trek snw #spapel #spock and chapel

it's interesting how it's actually christine who is emotionally unavailable and doesn't know how to handle feelings, not spock who is actively and persistently trying to make her open up to him.

and it really shows how complex christine is - she is empathetic, making others (including spock) feel safe and encouraged to speak about their feelings, yet she can't be vulnerable herself.

spock is clearly worried about christine putting up walls and acting as if she is okay, he doesn't like it that she wants to be left alone, but christine has too many unresolved issues and is too stubborn to change her ways.

i’m once again mad at how boring snw characters look… like you could be maxing out on the campiness of the original show and you do… this…

anyway i tried to do a 60s inspired version of snw chapel ✌️😗 not sure if i’m happy with it but i might do some more redesigns later 👀

Am I dumb or did anyone else find this lines weird?

Like Spock, bestie, I know your emotions are taking over just a little bit, but isn't it a bit narcissistic assuming you're the only one who "can" by the sole reason of not being a weak little human?

i'm sorry, but internalized misogyny in star trek fandom is insane.

yes, i feel bad for spock, his heart was broken in 2x09! but for god's sake! he intentionally pressured christine to talk about the topic that she was clearly uncomfortable discussing in front of others so that she would actually lose control and involuntarily bare her emotions! this is not cute baby boy behavior at all!

at that's okay! our beloved characters are allowed to have flaws! what is not okay is acting as if christine is a cold bitch when she was literally forced to reveal her feelings/thoughts the way she did!

the only thing christine did wrong was not telling spock sooner, but please remember that it was only a few hours between christine finding out about the fellowship and spock confronting her about it. erica found out with christine about it and christine celebrating with erica and sam was spontaneous, it wasn't planned, since christine said that it was not the time for celebrations!

and christine's song was mostly about how happy she was for being validated academically and professionally, it wasn't about her not caring about spock! she only said that if she had to leave him for her future, she wouldn't fight it!

+ remember that christine had been hurting ever since she was told that she was nothing to spock in the future and then she had her war trauma triggered in the worst way possible! considering all of this, spock should have been more patient, instead of forcing her into opening up in the name of an experiment, imo!

like, i'm begging you all, don't turn snw fandom into this misogyny-infested media-illiterate dump that a lot of fandoms turn into, please let's not ruin it here!!!
