#DecRecs i've generally been aiming towards the 'low knowledge of canon necessary' side of things with these recs but with this one i can cheerfully assert that it's easy enough to follow without having ever seen Strange New Worlds at all because that's how i read it -- time travel, psychic bonds, and wildly divergent cultural understandings of romance make polyamory negotiations either much simpler or more complicated than they would usually be but everyone manages a charming amount of adult communication in between the usual day to day shenanigans of a starfleet ship
