The interactions between Spock, Uhura and Kirk in Star Trek into Darkness are so fucking funny to me. It’s really giving: new partner and ex partner conspiring and banding together against the guy they are dating/ dated. Uhura and Kirk probably have girls’ night with fruity cocktails to complain about Spock every Tuesday night.

Yes yes the inherent tragic of the Garashir dynamic, spies, different sides, devided loyalties etc etc IGNORE THAT

If I were Julian I’d be wearing a shit-eating grin AT LEAST 40% of the time. I have the biggest secret on base. It consumes my every move, dictates every muscle twitch. He should be able to read it in every sentence I speak. And this Cardassian SUPERSPY doesn’t get it?? Years of interrogation tactics (those lunch debates were mild psychological warfare) and he just. Thinks I’m nifty. Oddly fascinating. There’s something alluring about me and he can’t put a finger on it. How mysterious.

I’d be cackling. It’s the biggest inside joke. Yes it’s also based in severe trauma but everyone is wary and afraid of this guy. He’s the incarnation of secrets. And he just. Sits there. Eating lunch with me. Weekly. None the wiser.

Do you think Julian takes a moment when it all comes out to just laugh hysterically at Garak

there is a subreddit on star trek reddit called like r/xenorelationship dedicated to inter-alien-races relationships and jim's secret account (u/adassperaspera) is a local celebrity there. his imput is invaluable as he has one of the most diverse ranges of experience. he is however only expert in human/vulcan relationships number 2 because, as he realizes with horror at some point, amanda is also on reddit

Reblog from my main

@indecentwarwlf and I put our brains together to design a toxic older woman for Ezri Dax to get with after she and Julian break up, now meet our old pirate lady Daris!

Daris is a pirate-turned-“privateer” (heavy air quotes) who frequents DS9 and causes problems wherever she goes. She is a firm believer in bootstrap theory, cannot read and does not want to learn, has no issue resorting to violence to win a negotiation, and is heavily angling to get Ezri in bed. Also Pel (from the DS9 s2ep07 “Rules of Acquisition”) reappears as a member of Daris’ crew some time after her intro in that ep.

Anyway she’s a terrible person and we love her 🧡

(if you too would like a picture of your character in this style my commissions are open! Check my pinned post for details)

Top middle- met at a student science conference; Vulcan

Top right- cool substitute teacher who rides a motorcycle; Vulcan

Bottom left- depressed art girl who works at an ice cream shop near T’Pora’s place; Vulcan

Bottom middle- energetic teen working for a summer as an instructor at an outdoor ropes course; Tellarite

Bottom right- Physics teacher at another school in the area (later revealed to be married to Motorcycle Teacher); Vulcan

Who wants to hear about my headcanons for Vulcans being able to merge their minds and become a singular being with multiple bodies?

I call these beings keshtan-terau (born by joining), but I am not at all versed in Vulcan so if that violates grammar rules or makes no sense feel free to correct me. Other contenders for names include wehk-ak'shem, tertin-sular, or tertin-kashkau.

Basically, the idea is that a pair (or trio or quartet, etc) of bonded Vulcans can choose to merge their minds into one, utilizing the help of a priest/mind-healer. This creates a singular composite entity with 2+ bodies, and the memories and knowledge of all of the people it once was. This entity has a single katra shared across their bodies. Keshtan-terau are commonly made up of married couples, but can also be made up of friends, siblings, partners, etc. The largest keshtan-terau ever recorded was a polycule/hivemind from the pre-Surakian days made up of 14 bodies. The telepathic bond between the keshtan-terau's brains acts as a corpus callosum or spinal cord, transmitting information back and forth and keeping the whole person in sync. As such, when it is severed, the keshtan-terau is painfully "cloned", with each body retaining a copy of the being's personality and becoming separate people unless re-unified. When one or more bodies die, the whole person does not die, instead inhabiting any remaining bodies. However, the death of a body is extremely painful and distressing for the keshtan-terau, akin to losing a chunk of one's brain and multiple limbs. It is not uncommon for keshtan-terau to experience retrograde amnesia after the death of a body, since different memories are often stored in each brain. However, the trauma is worse if the death is painful or violent, so many keshtan-terau will voluntarily euthanize their terminally ill bodies.

Keshtan-terau prefer to keep their bodies somewhat near one another, but can easily have them lead semi-independent lives, as each body has its own brain. However, it is not recommended for keshtan-terau to go more than 60 days without their bodies being in the same room, as this can cause depression, dissociation, stress, anxiety, and depersonalization. Keshtan-terau also just like having their bodies together in one place, as their composite people invariably loved each other dearly, and that love continues in their merged form as self-love.

Keshtan-terau are extremely rare, less than one in a million, but not unheard of. Depending on time period, dominant belief system, and surroundings, they are alternately fetishized, worshiped, reviled, or treated with indifference. More recently (23rd-24th century), the trend has been polite indifference, though the echoes of the 22nd-century's anti-mind-meld bigotry remain. Several Joined Trill have opted to become keshtan-terau, somewhat predictably; the Commission at first looked upon this with suspicion, but eventually embraced it as being a good experience for the Symbionts. Changelings (in the 25th century) and the Bynars also feel a sort of kinship with keshtan-terau.

Keshtan-terau will name themselves upon formation, either choosing a new name entirely, or mashing together the names of their composite people (like Tuvix). A common practice is to keep the composite people's names as one's family name, like "T'Mair-Liru Sorik". It is also customary to refer to the individual bodies of a keshtan-terau with their former inhabitant's name hyphenated with the keshtan-terau's name, like "Sorik-Liru" when referring to the body that used to be Liru's.
