Summary

Incorrect Quotes with the Soong family!

Chapter 1: At A Party

Data: Geordi, please help me keep an eye on Lore today. He is going to say something to the wrong person and get punched.

 

Geordi: Sure, I'd love to see Lore get punched.

 

Data: Try again.

 

Geordi, sighing: I will try to stop Lore from getting punched.

 

B4: Oh look, Lore is talking with Lt. Worf! Can I go say hi?

 

Data: Geordi, this is where the 'helping me prevent Lore getting punched' request comes in.

 

Geordi: Sorry, buddy.

Geordi: I'd go into a lot of risky situations for you, but not that risky.

 

B4: Lore and Commander Worf are not very good at shaking hands. They keep accidentally curling their fingers and sticking them in each other's faces.

 

Data: [taps commbadge] Lt. Commander Data to security chief Tasha Yar, please come in.

 

Tasha, over commlink: Yar here. What's wrong?

 

Data: You were correct, bringing Lore to a party was a poorly thought out idea.

 

//Lore throws Worf across the room. Worf immediately gets up and runs back across the room to tackle Lore

 

Data: Tasha help I made a mistake

🤣🤣🤣

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

😁😁😁

EDITHCARDYBRUNO via AO3 on Chapter 58 · 2025-10-15

I enjoyed the entire work, bravo!

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

I'm so glad, thank you! 😁

EDITHCARDYBRUNO via AO3 2025-12-02

You're welcome

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 56 · 2025-10-15

yay!

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

😁

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 58 · 2025-10-15

so much :) and so many :D
bravo!


(and, knowing i missed a lot, but I bet that Lore would have spoiled Lal rotten! )

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed! I know I respond that to nearly every comment, but it is meant each time. Thank you for so many wonderful comments! I write for myself, but knowing others enjoy what I do is amazing. Thank you, sincerely.

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 55 · 2025-10-15

maybe one of those uncle-niece secrets that're okay to have?
:)

or tell Data that its so she can be a great addition to any security team?

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Except Lal's already proven she can't be trusted with Lore's secrets. She's too much like him for that XD

I think that suggestion would lead to a common scene in many cop/military dramas: the "Yes I risk my life on a regular basis and it is the most fulfilling and special thing ever, but if my precious child even hints at wanting to follow in my footsteps, I will have the MOTHER of all panic attacks" scene, except Data would be SUUUUUPER confused as to why he's upset about Lal joining a security team.

Again, glad you liked and commented on it!

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 50 · 2025-10-15

at first i thought this said "with humans"...hummus is better. bravo!

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Thank you! 😁

To be fair, Lore probably does consider attacking with humans a terrible idea 😂

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 44 · 2025-10-15

aww, Tasha, you're awesome. and nice try, Lore.

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Isn't she? I love Tasha Yar so much (if I ignore literally almost everything about her backstory, anyways).

Oh good, you got that, I was worried the end joke would be confusing.

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 42 · 2025-10-15

take them, Geordi. what could possibly go wrong.

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

SO. MUCH. That's what could go wrong. EVERYTHING. 😂😂 😂

I'm so glad you like it! (I'm getting repetitive, aren't I? Lol. It's true though, I am very glad people like what I post. I work hard on these things, and it's nice to know it's appreciated, ya know?)

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 41 · 2025-10-15

oh gods, I can hear it now..."Father, why can I not know nor imagine what it is like to lick something? My optic sensors are not faulty - I have checked."
:D
:D

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Lol XD

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 39 · 2025-10-15

never let it be said that Lal would keep Spot from being an overachiever. :)
Lal is the best

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

The absolute BEST :)

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 35 · 2025-10-15

they are adorable together

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Aren't they? 🥰 One of my favorite friendships that I didn't even think of until I wrote it 🤣

I'm glad you like them, and the fic! 😁

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 34 · 2025-10-15

well thats one way. :)

and thats better than what i was thinking Data was going to say: "by the time they realize..."

keep up the great work

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-10-21

Thank you :)

Sorry I haven't responded to all of your comments, it's hard for me to get to all of them. Know that they are all very appreciated, though, and that I'm glad you like my work 😊

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 32 · 2025-10-15

Yay Lal!

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

She's the best.

I'm glad you like it! Thank you so much for reading and commenting, it is much appreciated! 😁

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 28 · 2025-10-15

*facepalms*
:)

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Lore has made many mistakes in his life, but few as bad as this one...

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 30 · 2025-10-15

given that Tasha always is pretty, thats a very easy job. but very needed.

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Yes, very needed indeed 😓

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 25 · 2025-10-15

her revenge shall be sweet indeed.
(and Data'd probably enjoy it anyway)

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

I love their relationship so much.

I'm glad you're enjoying 😊

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 21 · 2025-10-15

you did tell him, Data, you did say it. :)

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

He did! He really did! 😂

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 13 · 2025-10-15

ah, but it would work on biologicals, Lore: because you can tell them they can't stop dancing until you watch every one of them.

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Half of your comments are pointing out flaws in the characters' logic and I love it XD

Glad you're enjoying! 😁

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 10 · 2025-10-15

given that everywhere is indoors...be afraid...be very afraid.
:D

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Fair point! Lol

I'm glad you like it! 😊

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 7 · 2025-10-15

given the reflexes that family has, Picard should be thankful Lal was going easy on everyone, speed-wise.

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

This is true! XD

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 6 · 2025-10-15

>Data: On the bright side, Geordi, I now believe that you may be right about my having emotions.
yay?
:)

I thought an Orion broke onboard.

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Oh, right, I forgot about Orions... They don't have pointy ears, though, right?

Data having emotions without that ridiculous chip plot is ALWAYS a yay XD

Glad you like! :)

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 3 · 2025-10-15

both can be true.
:D

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Lol XD

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 2 · 2025-10-15

holodecks have entire forests full of sticks and sticks-in-waiting.

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

That is true... XD

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 1 · 2025-10-15

"I'll help you several ways. Your brothers can find their own ways home."

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Is that from something or are you making Tasha's response? Sorry, but I honestly can't tell... :/

Keenir via AO3 on Chapter 1 · 2025-10-15

this has been a very very fun series to read; thank you!

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Thank you, I'm so glad you like it! 😁

Plain_Belly_Sneetch via AO3 on Chapter 12 · 2025-10-16

I was going to say "Damn Spot, you're vicious" but...nah...this is better. XD

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

I'm glad you like it! And that my little Spot-Geordi-Pet trick worked 😈

Did anyone else catch that massive error from HarvestMooner before it vanished? They left the direct input for the AI right in the public-facing author's note, confirming their method of content generation. The speed at which they deleted it just proves they knew it was wrong.

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-10-16

I have no idea who or what you're talking about. However, I'm fairly certain that you're the same person that left two other very similar comments on my fics so far. Please explain yourself, as I'm thinking this is some sort of scam or spam or something?

Startreklightning via AO3 on Chapter 6 · 2025-11-30

"Picard: Picard to La Forge, go check on your androids. They're malfunctioning again.
Geordi, over commlink: When did they become my androids? " LMAO 😂

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Glad you're enjoying! I'm particularly proud of that line, lol 😂

Startreklightning via AO3 on Chapter 7 · 2025-11-30

"Lal: I'm a nice person, but I'm about to start throwing rocks at people.
Data: What is the matter, Lal?
Lal: Nothing's the matter, Father.
Lal: I have simply noticed that human reflexes are slow and wish to help the crew improve by training them to dodge better. " GURL 💀

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Yeah, Lal is a menace. She doesn't mean to be, but... XD

Startreklightning via AO3 on Chapter 28 · 2025-11-30

Oh god 😂

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

XD

Startreklightning via AO3 on Chapter 28 · 2025-11-30

I now want to hear Lal cuss 😂

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Lol 😂

I'm glad you like it!

Startreklightning via AO3 on Chapter 31 · 2025-11-30

Geordi, Data's in charge of night shift, he kind of has to stay up late 😂

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Oh zap, I forgot about that... Welp, now I feel like an idiot. XD

Glad you're enjoying! 😁

Startreklightning via AO3 on Chapter 35 · 2025-11-30

"Lal: You are very sweet. You're my best friend." lMAO, love her 😂

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Wholesome and fluffy kid stuff is one of my favorite things 😄

I'm glad you like Lal, and the fic! 😁

Startreklightning via AO3 on Chapter 47 · 2025-11-30

DUDE. 💀

Arukir Author via AO3 2025-12-02

Lore is purposely vicious and owns it, Data is purposely vicious and pretends he isn't, and B4 is unintentionally the most vicious of them all XD

I'm glad you like it :)

katofalltrades via AO3 on Chapter 4 · 2026-07-01

Lore's response is literally when the older sibling hits the younger sibling and they start crying and the older sibling panics like "please don't tell mom!"

katofalltrades via AO3 on Chapter 13 · 2026-07-01

I shouldn't have laughed at the kidney stealing comment...but I did (I'm at work and was questioned why I was laughing)

katofalltrades via AO3 on Chapter 34 · 2026-07-01

Lore being slightly less evil is making me think he'd get along with Q

It definitely a possibility 😅 🐍
