Status Updates From Survivors (Star Trek: The N...

So far, It's been fun to spend some time in the universe of one of my comfort shows. Not to say that it's without fault (far from it!), To start, the whole premise is based on one of my least favourite arcs. But it's a quick read, with a space faring adventure at the core with some interesting development for Tasha that the series failed to include. I can see myself ploughing through this one in another sitting.

CW: coercion...

...and now this Commander is her fiancé and her supervising officer on the ship they were assigned on together...

Holy crap, more CW: Coercive subordinate-supervisor sex.

So, the Starfleet Officer who rescued Tasha (and whom she idolized and hero-worshipped as a teen) and was sort of a father to her, has returned to watch now Cadet Yar graduate from the Academy...he's a Commander, she a Cadet...he was her paternal caregiver...and now they bang...

I'm sorry, and I know this was the 80s, but *shudder*...and he calls her "girl"

Well, there's some CW for you: rape and cat-murder.

I know the novels aren't canon...but Tasha's last name "Yar" she took from an old lady that helped her for about a year so when she was a child...so, Ishara Yar makes no sense, at all.

Also, now her home world wasn't discovered by the Federation until the 24th Century, but I'm pretty sure in an earlier novel they said her home world seceded from the Federation.
