IT WAS A SMIRK

LORCA WAS THE BIG BAD ALL ALONG

More or less, you know what I mean. Klingons, et cetera. Emperor Georgiou might still turn on Michael. BUT LORCA.

Anyway, this is a weird time to have shipped him with anyone, sooooooooooooooooooooo that's some fic I'm retroactively conflicted about. Having read and written.

Congrats to Disco for ensuring that, even when Michelle Yeoh is is the totalitarian leader of a human supremacist empire, a straight white man is still worse.

WOW

He is the actual worst!

Mmmmaybe we'll get to meet non-mirror Lorca? (I was imagining, last night as I failed to fall asleep, Kat and Lorca's daughter's reaction to discovering her father's doppelganger had been prowling about in her universe.)

He's the worst! (And is not an Evil Bisexual, hurrah, instead it is Lorca who is the creepy sexual predator!)

(I mean, the Emperor eats people and this is obviously a Bad Thing, but I'm sure Mirror Lorca also eats people).

(Oh God, poor Saru is going to be very very traumatised when he realises he's been serving under a man who quite possibly has been regarding him as dinner).

(Apparently flailing makes me abuse brackets now....)

This is (one of many many) reasons why ILU, Discovery. <333

ALSO: I don't feel like your Lorca fic is actually suddenly problematic or even necessarily jossed now? All canon just changed is that for the last year or so, the Lorca in Kat's life isn't the Gabriel she's known and loved all along. You weren't actually shipping Mirror Lorca with anyone, even if you didn't know it at the time. :P :P

(I don't have shipfeels for them especially [I have Katfeels, which sometimes overlap :D], but her little "So, my Gabriel is dead," made me kinda retroactively ship it and absolutely ripped my heart in half for her. OH GOD KAT.)

STILL CACKLING.

Yeah, luckily I didn't write anything from Lorca's POV that was set during this last year. I should probably go back and add notes to indicate my fics have since been jossed (it's the kind of thing I like to know, as a reader), but, eh, no rush.

JUST RIP OUT MY HEART AGAIN WHY DON'T YOU
