ST:PIC That Respects All Trek by amphiuma
Fandom Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Star Trek: Lower Decks (Cartoon), Star Trek: Picard, Star Trek: Prodigy, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Voyager

Summary
A Fix-It for what Star Trek: Picard should have been, erasing their worldbuilding contradictions, adjusting their events, and respecting that other Star Trek series happened and are important.
Highlights include: how a '90s captain would actually end up with a Borg child, La Sirena crew helping the disenfranchised around the Federation, what the Maquis are up to, how holograms would be affected by the Synth ban, and more!
DISCLAIMER: All of this (and more) was plotted before PRO S2 actually touched PIC events, with me presuming they wouldn't stretch their timeline enough to actually get to them. I am glad they did and I respect what they did--in fact it's the sort of thing I complain about every other Trek not doing. And also, I like my version too. Maybe, selfishly, I like mine a little better. Basically, presume PRO S2 all happened, but didn't take two years.

Yes this is my own series. Yes I love it to bits and want it to show up at the top of my profile always. Hence a bookmark rec.

Summary
A remarkable "braided novel" of 8 stories and novellas which Macedon wrote in tandem with the equally remarkable Peg Robinson. Too sprawling (in the grand sense) in scale and reach to reduce to a mere synopsis; let us just say that this is Voyager unfettered and red in tooth and claw, such as Paramount with its nice tidy pander-to-the-demographics mentality could only dream of producing. Faith, community, alienation and belonging, honest conflict between Maquis and Starfleet, and the realities of life far from home and safety. These are just a few of the things Macedon and Peg handled with discretion and grace.
From Macedon: I recently learned that my friend of many years, Peg, passed away in her sleep September 3, 2024. If you were or are a fan of the Talking Stick series and Peg's fiction, please think softly on her and light some sage or tobacco in her memory for the wonderful stories she gave to us.

This is what Voyager should have been and you are in for the biggest treat reading this.
