   What's the non-sexual version of a prude? Well, I feel like that every time a new Star Trek thing comes out lately, and a lot of other things for that matter. I'm not opposed to a reasonable amount of darkness, violence and such, but really, does everything have to be cranked up to 11 these days?

     For anyone reading the Wandering Inn, you know how..extreme it can get. That's my limit, and to be honest, if it were shorter, or if it were a TV show or movie, I probably wouldn't read/watch it. It's all the happy and fun parts, as well as the peacetime character developement, that makes it worthwhile and keeps me coming back. But take something that's much shorter so it doesn't have time for most of that happy stuff, give it a downer beginning, a dark and violent middle, and a downer end,

     @gocu54 Yeah, I mean, I can handle that level, and DS9 is my favorite, which I'd argue had even more dark themes and episodes. But those weren't the whole point of the show, and they were there to be overcome, not embraced.

     @Fragglemuppet Even TNG which has a lot of dark episodes wasn't always so dark all the time.
