/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

To be fair, in the book the three musketeers were always Porthos, Athos, and Aramis. D'Artagnan joins the group and becomes their companion later on.
Should the book have been named the Four Musketeers? Probably. But hey, it's French.
I figure the title is meant to be interpreted as "D'Artagnan and the Three Musketeers". He's the main character and the book is about his adventures with them. What does bother me is the total lack of muskets.
Plenty of ears, though.
Not if you keep waving that sword around so carelessly.
Hey! Watch it! 👂
At least 8, if my math checks out.
There are Muskets when they have lunch at a gate of the city they are besieging.
Naming it the Four Musketeers would have been a huge spoiler.
I'm not sure where you get your information but I'm pretty sure their names are Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy. Pluto was just a dog in that movie.
It's about D'Artagnan's journey to becoming a Musketeer, so calling it 4 Musketeers would be Spoilers! A better choice would be "The 3 Musketeers and I" which my old brain is hinting may have been the title of some film version...
Because he wasn't actually a musketeer (not until the very end anyway). He was friends with the musketeers, but was basically just a regular guy off the street. A musketeer was some kind of position in the military/royal guard or whatever. He didn't hold that position.
No, because D'Artagnan wasn't a member of the Musketeers.
He becomes one by the end of the book. And spends the next two books as a member.
Ah, I haven't read the other two. I actually didn't even know they existed until you told me just now. But for the first book he's definitely just a friend of the Musketeers until the very end.
