• I can’t remember if it was Voyager or DS9, but something I caught recently watching one of 'em was about a Vulcan night club having a Pon’farr night and I need to know what the fuck that’s all about.

    Vulcan night club? That sounds like an oxymoron.

    Pon’farr night? Is everyone horned up and just fucking on the dance floor?

        We appear to be experiencing a time dilation from a subspace pocket. Need to reverse the polarity of the tachyon beam, or something.

      It was Pon Farr Night at the Vulcan Night Club on the holographic facsimile of Star Fleet Academy that Species 8472 was using to practice being Federation citizens. I think it makes sense that, if they’re planning to impersonate any Vulcans for any length of time, they’d want to get their agents practice at simulating Pon Farr. Especially if they’re going to simulate it accurately, so the agents will actually have to experience the urges.

        Just an excuse for members of Species 8472 to get down. With all that time and effort put toward overtaking the Federation, who could blame them? I just feel sorry for the poor saps sent to clean up after.
