Endorsements! "What is she good at?"

Jadzia Dax, Star Trek: science, fighting with bat'leths, flirting, dispensing wise advice (she is hundreds of years old!), being a trans idol ("Curzon, my old friend!" - "It's Jadzia now!" - "Jadzia, my old friend!"), flirting, piloting, music (newly so), flirting, being non-judgemental, calling out bullshit, subverting societal taboos. And flirting.

Samantha "Sam" Carter, Stargate: #but sam blew up a sun#and punched ba'al#and (as i said up there) got between ronon and teal'c sparring#she beat the crap out of a warlord who saw women as property (we know the ep aged like milk but character building)#she built a particle accelerator!#she wouldn't stop until all her team got home#(ok shipper in me is like 'also cause she loved him' but roll with it)#she went up against her universe's version of a terminator and survived thank you tumblr user @tinknevertalks
