_{Star Trek Character Appreciation | Reginald Barclay}

_{I’m the guy who writes down things to remember to say when there’s a party. And then when he gets there, he winds up alone in the corner trying to look comfortable examining a potted plant.}

I will reblog this every time I see it.  Reginald Barclay is me.  I am Reginald Barclay.

Remember that time TNG did an episode on bullying and social anxiety?

Geordi: “He’s late And nervous. Nobody wants to be around him!”

Guinan: “If I knew nobody wanted to be around me I’d probably be late and nervous too.”

Geordi: “That’s not the point!”

Guinan: “Are you sure?”

TNG was not supposed to make me feel feelings.

BARCLAY: Being afraid, all the time… of forgetting somebody’s name. Not knowing what to do with your hands. I mean, I am the guy who writes down things to remember to say when there’s a party. And then when he gets there, he winds up alone in the corner trying to look comfortable examining a potted plant. 

GEORDI: You’re just SHY, Barclay. 

BARCLAY: “Just shy”… Sounds like nothing serious, doesn’t it. You can’t know.
