#Spock is like this fucking idiot

[ccxssi]

The biology of Vulcan’s…

[greengoddesssmoothie]

Anyway, here's proof I'm working on Chapter 7 of Undone.

This was supposed to be hurt/comfort, why is it so damned romantic...

[orpheuslament]

teenage me fixating on non-human characters / characters that dont know how to behave like a human: hm. wonder what this is about

[t0ast-ghost]

SEASON 2 TIME! Episode 1 and it’s… AMOK TIME!?! Oh boy:

- “Oh, Captain.” Yeah McCoy?

- McCoy is worried about Spock just like Chapel is worried about Spock

- The fucking nameplates, whatever they’re called that are stuck to the walls are hilarious

- He was having his period

- THEY ADDED DEFOREST KELLY TO THE OPENING CREDITS

- Does Spock have a knife behind his back??! Oh wait does Spock have an arcade machine in his room?

- OH MY GOD CHEKOV

- How can I even explain? It’s like he’s t posing or smt (mom I threw up kinda stance)

- The little fight between McCoy and Spock in the med bay, McCoy wants to know what’s wrong and Spock is not doing well

- CONVERSATION BETWEEN SULU AND CHEKOV HOLY COW

- “He’ll die. He’ll die, Jim.” Knowing that Spock needs to fuck during this episode makes it so much better, this really is how they decided to start the new season

- “The birds and the bees are not Vulcans, captain.”

- Spock pours his heart out to Kirk “I haven’t heard a word you’ve said.” WHAT KIRK? What?

- Chapel listening to Kirk and McCoy like “shut the fuck up and just kiss already.” She’s happy that Kirk decided to go to Vulcan tho

- SHE ENTERED SPOCKS ROOM WITHOUT HIM KNOWING???

- Their conversation is… strange

- “You’ve been most patient with my kinds of madness.”

- He can be accompanied by his closest friends. And he chooses Kirk and McCoy. My heart.

- “She is T’Pring, my wife.” Goddamn he’s been cheating on his wife with two men in space

- Imagine all the Vulcan’s could just hear Kirk and McCoy’s commentary

- What the fuck is happening.. they explained that she chose to make him fight… but what the fuck is happening

- “You think Spock can take him?” “I doubt it. Not in his present condition.” Brutal McCoy. Brutal.

- Those bells are annoying as shit

- When Spock talks to T’Pau he looks so small, could be the high angle and way he’s curled in on himself

- This montage is crazy.. and annoying. I really hate those bells

- “Jim don’t go and fight Spock.” “I’m gonna go and fight Spock.. out of friendship.”

- Babygirl your murderous rage filled look has captivated me

- BOOB WINDOW MOMENT! It’s just as beautiful as I thought it would be

- McCoy’s “SPOCK NO!” Is like. He doesn’t want his idiot boyfriends dead

- I cannot express emotion

- “He’s dead.” HES DEAD BUT ITS JIM MOMENT

- T’Pring is such a girlboss but holy crap that’s fucking ruthless

- OMG HES HAPPY OH MY GOD HEA SMILUNF OH MY I could watch this clip all day

- McCoy is so smart and we thank him everyday

- “When I found I killed my boyfriend, I lost any interest in my wife”

- To end it off we must have a bit of flirting. “In a pig’s eye.” Which according to google means ‘Expressing scornful disbelief at a statement’

Episode written by Theodore Sturgeon

Of fucking course it was him. See ya on the flip flop.

Okay here me out! I've had this idea cooking in my head for a while and it's taking me way too long but I'm finally doing it! Or, well... explaining it hehe! Basically, Makoto's Kirk, Byakuya's McCoy, and Kyoko's Spock. Also, had some other ideas too such as Aoi being Uhura, maybe Chihiro as Chekov though a part of my brain also thought of Komaru being in that role but that's cus I was initially thinking the other supporting cast being the survivors of the first game. The others though are like Taka as Sulu, Toko as Christine Chapel which fuck I did NOT notice the pun there. Also, I had the thought of maaaybe Leon being Scotty but that's mostly because Red hair -> Red shirt. That's it. Though for the guy who didn't last long in the canon, at least he's immune to the red shirt curse by being a main character!! ALSO, Junko as Khan. It's great and the thought of Makoto screaming Junko's name in anguish is too good to pass up! As for some thoughts on the main trio, for Makoto, it's obvious why I made him Kirk. Main man privilege. Also, any of you folks who enjoy the Makoto Harem shenanigans will especially enjoy this cus Kirk is just always around ladies so at least there's that. Not that he'd be Kirking it up. It's still Makoto after all! But still! Meanwhile, for the other two, I feel Byakuya as McCoy and Kyoko as Spock are great fits. Kyoko's known for being kinda cold and seemingly emotionless and having her arc of learning to trust people. I can just SEE the parallels of her and Spock, the balance of the analytical side of the Vulcan and the emotional side of the human. And, while it would be funny to give Byakuya the permanent pointy Spock brows, the guy's too sassy and petty to fully be a Spock. Thus, he's McCoy! He gets to bother the shit outta Kyoko in the bridge too while she dunks on him every time. Some other miscellaneous bits are that yes, Byakuya is hanging out with Toko in the med bay cus I found it funny to have him with her there. Who knows! Maybe Syo's knack with scissors can come in handy in the medical field, just like, minus the murder. Also, yes this means that Makoto is kissing Aoi at some point, that Taka is running around shirtless with a sword cus sci-fi shenanigans and that Makoto and Kyoko get to roll around in the sand as she almost tries to fucking kill him cus Amok Time being amoking and Pon Farr be like that. Also this means Makoto gets his tiddies exposed. That is if the Star Trek canon is heavily followed and all but it's just something to imagine. Plus, typing that just out there is funny to me. Don't think I have the expertise to make this an AU of my own though, probably just make silly drawings. Despite growing up with Star Trek as a kid, I was an idiot that processed none of it, only really remembering the tribbles, Kirk making a billion dramatic speeches I never understood, Spock kinda floating in space with Kirk being worried or something. Aso the movie where Spock fucking died and that other one where he hung out with some whales which is such a goofy way of describing it all. And like, I have NOOO clue what the overlap between a Danganronpa fan and a freaking Star Trek fan is. Like, I'm kinda the case study but also I have no clue at all!

[flibbertygigget]

Love love love how in Star Trek TOS we get these,,, moments where Bones does or encourages doing The Logical Thing and Spock is like "actually fuck you for your logic"

And it's always in the most stupidly self-sacrificing way possible with Bones

Like in Miri - Bones tests the inoculation against the "kills at puberty" virus on himself and Spock is clearly, like, internally freaking out. And Bones testing it on himself is clearly the most logical thing - they're on a serious time limit, there are no other human adults around, and if he doesn't test that this works it's not like he'll have time to modify it. This is probably the best option in a bad situation, but Spock goes over to Passed Out Bones internally going "fucking idiot fucking idiot you got yourself killed didn't you?"

[dukeofriven]

I have so many problems with Strange New Worlds, but fundamentally I'd like it so much better if it wasn't about yhe USS Enterprise NCC-1701. It is forever cut-off by the knees by this idiotic choice to make it a prequel—for all that Discovery failed to achieve, its smartest idea was if you HAD to make it a TOS-era prequel, you set it on a ship never mentioned before, with a crew never mentioned before, and even its lead—nominally the sister of a famous TOS-era character—at least came from a prior tradition of never-heretofore mentioned spare Spock siblings. The show was free to fly around and tell its own stories, and as for the handful of canon characters it did have—at least in its most-ambitious-but-messy first season—they were peripheral enough that so long as they didn't kick the bucket they'd make their future character rendezvous fairly intact as characters.

But SNW is struck down by a fatal case of prequelitis. 'We've made Nurse Chapel so dynamic and three dimensional now' yeah sure but in doing so you've also made it really weird that Nurse Chapel eventually 'evolves' into a glorified background extra eith a boring fiancee. 'We've fleshed out Doctor M'Benga!' Okay, so that he can… later agree to a demotion and be replaced by Doctor McCoy as CMO for some reason? They've done the stupid Star Wars thing, in which the entire galaxy is only five feet wide and contains the same eight people, who all know each-other. What was Uhura's career before the Enterprise? She didn't have one: she apparently spent her entire Starfleet career aboard the ship, plagued with the same Muppet Baby Syndrome that her alt-unvierse counterpart got in the Kelvinverse. Other Starfleet officers lead diverse lives: it's a plot point that Riker's career was so damaged by the fact that he spent seven years about the D that if it hadn't been for the Dominion war wiping-out half of Starfleet's officer corp ,he'd never have made captain. Good officers move around. But SNW is doing an Abrams: everyone ends up on the Enterprise and then just... stay there. Forever. (They're probably going to bring Chekov back as a cadet too so that he's placed to meet Khan in the bathroom later and thus Screenrant can write an article about how we've finally fixed that 'plot hole' that doesn't fucking matter.) There's no reason to waste these actors in such a manner. Everyone who isn't Spock and Kirk (and sometimes McCoy) on TOS fairly infamously never got a damn thing to do. When they were filming the TOS movies most of the Bridge Crew did a couple of days of filming out of a month and a half long shoot because Uhura's only role was to do some reaction shots. So why make a prequel about people these characters clearly are not: Jess Bush can't be playing Nurse Chapel because Nurse Chapel is boring. Celia Rose Gooding can't be playing Uhura: Nichelle Nichols almost quit the series because of how little Uhura ever said or did. Who are these dynamic people and what kind of story arc emerge from them becoming one-dimensional? Even pike isn't freed from this: they beat us over the head, over and over, that he cannot escape his canon fate: he is doomed to live-through The Menagerie and get all melty. Why? WHY? I don't get it. They could be free of the weight of having to connect with TOS, but they keep doubling down and its that, more than anything—more than even the hair-pulling too-contemporary dialogue—that makes SNW so frustrating.

He Can’t Even Deny It

A/N: Hi, it's me, Kourtni (formerly thatkourtnichick). I used to write all the time. I hardly ever write anymore, and that makes me sad. Be gentle as I get back into the swing of things. 

Dr. Leonard H. McCoy knew that one day he would have an aneurysm. Not like in a few years ‘one day’ but like this very second ‘one day’. It was a shit mission from the beginning, but turned shittier when a rebel group from the tiny planet they were convincing to join the Federation decided to kidnap Jim and take him hostage. One minute, Jim was standing in front of McCoy, and the next minute, he had some kind of weapon next to his temple. He tried to ignore Jim’s dumbass orders (‘Stand down Lieutenant Commander!’ As if the infant thought using rank would make Leonard listen to him), but Spock used his Vulcan strength to keep Leonard from ripping the rebels to shreds. When the rebels left, Leonard was swearing up a storm as he began searching for his best friend. Spock was next to him the whole time, searching with just as much fervor. However, when they hit the fourth hour and there was still no sign of Jim, Spock insisted they go back to the Enterprise to regroup. McCoy told Spock he could fuck right off, but the Vulcan had the audacity to actually Nerve Pinch him. McCoy awoke about half an hour later in the Enterprise. He roared at Spock for quite some time, which the Vulcan took in stride, only raising an eyebrow when McCoy said he’d kill the Vulcan half of Spock and shove that half up his human half’s ass. Jim would’ve thought it was funny. 

“Get me back down there.” McCoy demanded of Spock. 

“Doctor, while I understand your fear--” 

“Scotty!” McCoy didn’t allow Spock to continue. He turned down the hall and went looking for the Engineer. 

“Doctor!” Spock called after him. 

McCoy kept walking, trying his hardest not to turn around and punch Spock in his stupid face. No one knew Jim like McCoy knew him. The kid had the absolute worst luck in the galaxy, in probably all of the galaxies in the universe. Every minute was another kick to the stomach, punch to the face, or some other kind of torture Jim would experience while in their custody. And because Jim’s the biggest dumbass in the universe, he’d be thinking about how much he deserved it because of past deeds, or he’d be thinking of how happy he was that he was the one being hurt and not McCoy or Spock or anyone else on the Enterprise…

“Leonard!” 

The use of his first name caused the good doctor to pause. 

“You must remain calm. We have a team searching as we speak. Lieutenant Uhura is acting as negotiator between the two factions. Lieutenant Sulu is updating coordinates as they come,” it’s here that Spock placed a hand on McCoy’s shoulder. “We will find him.” 

Spock was right of course, not that McCoy would ever admit it. Barging in like an idiot wasn’t going to be helpful to Jim. McCoy rolled his eyes and shrugged Spock’s hand off his shoulder much gentler than he usually would, hoping that Spock understood the gesture was more affectionate than not. 

“I won’t forget that Vulcan nerve shit anytime soon.” He told his…friend. 

Spock smirked slightly. “ I would never think otherwise, Dr. McCoy.” 

Six hours later, Jim was back on the Enterprise. McCoy wasted no time in waving a tricorder over the Captain while simultaneously dragging him to Sickbay (Jim complained and protested the whole damn time, insisting he was fine). 

Leonard forced Jim to sit on a biobed. 

“Bones, I told you, I’m fine!” Jim exclaimed. “They were really nice, surprisingly! They didn’t even hit me!”

McCoy snorted. “What do ya want? A gold star for not getting the shit beat outta you for the first time?”

“I mean…kinda. I sorta deserve it.” 

McCoy said nothing as he took notes on his pad as his tricorder beeped. 

“You’re not gonna find anything wrong.” Jim sing-songed. 

“Shut the hell up, Jim.” 

McCoy finished up some notes and grabbed a hypo. Jim flinched dramatically away when McCoy tried to jab it into his neck. 

“Hold still, ya damn infant.” McCoy grumbled. 

“I don’t have a single scratch on me, Bones! I don’t need a hypo!” Jim jumped suddenly and raced to the other side of the biobed, making him on one side and McCoy on the other. 

That was the last straw for McCoy. It had been a really fucking stressful day, and the last thing he needed was for Jim to make light of it. 

“You were fucking kidnapped Jim! For almost 11 hours! We were on a random ass planet, around God knows what virus or bacteria wise, and just because you didn’t get the shit beat outta you for the first time in your short and dumbass life, doesn’t mean you’re fine!” 

McCoy was shouting, breathing heavily as he finished his tirade. 

“Now let me fucking treat you so you don’t die in two hours from some other godforsaken allergy we dont’ know about!”

Jim stared at him for a few seconds before he finally said, “Okay, you’re at a level 10, and I’m gonna need you to turn it down to a level three.” 

“Jim.” McCoy growled, trying to convey his feelings without saying exactly how scared he was. 

“Bones, I’m not kidding. We literally sat and talked about the politics of their planet. I didn’t even get a papercut! There’s nothing to treat, I swear!” 

Leonard pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed. It took him a few seconds to look back at his best friend, but when he did, he begged, “Jim…please…” McCoy let all the stress, sadness, fear, worry, and love fill his voice and face. 

Jim looked confused for all of two seconds before his own face softened. 

“Oh Bones…I-I’m sorry.” Jim walked over to Leonard and placed his hands on his best friend’s shoulders. “I didn’t mean to scare you.”

McCoy, sensing that Jim was finally going to cooperate, tried to downplay his feelings. “I’d be fired if you died.” 

“You’d be back on Earth.” Jim countered. 

“Wouldn’t matter if you weren’t around.” McCoy responded, looking away. 

“Love you too, Bones.” 

Leonard said nothing, but he did press the hypo gently into Jim’s neck. Jim squeezed Leonard’s shoulders. The two men were quite for a few seconds until Jim, of course, had to break it. 

“You gave me the soft touch.” Jim motioned to the empty hypo in Leonard’s hands. “You totally love me.” 

“There’s another hypo I could use if you wanna keep pushing it.” Leonard threatened. 

“So, what, you don’t love me?” Jim teased, knowing full well McCoy wouldn’t outright deny it. 

“Whatever you say, kid.” McCoy said as he grabbed Jim in a loose headlock and rubbed his knuckles into the blonde head. 

“Hey!” Jim squawked, pulling at Leonard’s hand. 

McCoy wasn’t good with emotions, but he was good at irritating Jim.  

“Suck it up, Jimmy.” McCoy grinned as Jim squirmed half-heartedly. 

“You suck it up.” Jim grumped. 

McCoy didn’t expect it; he should’ve expected it, but he didn’t. The CMO of the Enterprise let out a shout of laughter as Jim squeezed the older man’s hips. McCoy released Jim immediately and pushed him away. 

“I know your greatest weakness, Bones.” Jim laughed as he wiggled his fingers at Leonard. 

“My greatest weakness?” McCoy snorted. “Let’s not forget which one of us folds like a cheap lawn chair the moment their ribs are even slightly poked.” 

Jim flinched slightly before he pointed a finger at Leonard, face already turning red. “Hey, you leave my ribs outta this.” 

Leonard took a predatory step towards Jim, who immediately backed up. 

“Let’s also not forget who shrieks like a banshee whenever their knees are squeezed.” 

“Stay away from me, Bones!” Jim had his hands up in front of him as he moved backwards. 

“And, most importantly, let’s not forget who actually enjoys being tickled til’ they can’t breathe.” 

Jim’s face turned redder than a rose lying against winter snow, and the kid spluttered. 

“Not even gonna deny it, are you?”

“Fuck you!” 

McCoy grinned, pretended to wave Jim off, and as soon as the kid’s guard was down, McCoy lunged for him. Jim let out a shriek as McCoy wasted no time latching onto the kid’s ribs, tickling with no mercy. 

“Fu-huhuck! Bohohones!” 

McCoy gave no reply. Instead, he vibrated his hands and raked them up and down Jim’s ribs. He wiggled a finger or two in between each rib as well, and the kid laughed hysterically. 

“Not a single stop in all your belly achin’, just ‘please’ and ‘Bones’ and ‘no’.” McCoy teased. 

Jim attempted to say shut up, at least, that’s what Leonard thought he attempted to say. It was hard to hear anything through the ridiculous giggles. 

“Let’s move on to some other places, whaddya say?” 

Jim shook his head no, but said nothing, only laughed even harder the moment Leonard latched onto Jim’s thighs. Leonard had a distinct advantage, which he realized was totally unfair. Leonard knew Jim better than anyone else. Jim was his best friend. So, of course the CMO knew every ticklish spot on Jim’s body. The other unfair advantage is the fact that Leonard was a doctor. So, of course he knew the exact amount of pressure, and exactly where to apply that pressure, to have Jim in absolute hysterics.  

And that’s exactly what Jim was in right now, hysterics. Leonard squeezed Jim’s thighs, and he moved up and down, adding more pressure the closer he got to Jim’s knees. Jim was clawing desperately at Leonard’s hands, doing his best to get the older man to stop without actually asking him to stop. Leonard moved to the tops of Jim’s knees and relished the high pitched laugh that came out of Jim. 

“BONES! N-NOHOT THERE!” 

Jim’s knees were a weak spot for him. Not his number one ticklish spot (his underarms were number one), but his knees were the spot that got him laughing like he was a kid again. Jim didn’t have the childhood he deserved, he didn’t get to have tickle fights with family members, he didn’t get to play with neighborhood kids, he didn’t get to be an actual kid…ever. So, Leonard did his best to ensure to bring out as many childhood whims as he could for Jim. 

The doctor squeezed the top of Jim’s knees and moved his ring fingers to lightly scratch at the sensitive skin behind, making Jim squeal and giggle like a lunatic. He kept at it until Jim literally begged for mercy. McCoy moved to Jim’s stomach, which made Jim curl up like a roly-poly. That worked for McCoy as he switched to Jim’s sides, forcing the kid to straighten. Then it was back to his stomach, then his sides, and on it went until Jim was silently laughing and had tears rolling down his cheeks. Only then did Leonard stop. As much as Jim loved being tickled, McCoy loved tickling him just as much. 

“That’s for getting kidnapped.” 

Jim was still giggling as he looked up at Leonard with the dopiest grin on his face. 

“A b-bit of an o-overkill, don’t ya think?” Jim asked. 

“Not even a little bit,” said Leonard. “You deserve an hour of that every day for the next 10 days to match the amount of hours you scared the shit outta me.” 

“Ha! You were worried! You do love me!”

“You’re just askin’ for round two.” 

Jim grinned and slapped McCoy’s shoulder good naturedly. McCoy returned the gesture with a hand on Jim’s back as they walked to the Bridge. 

[bajuuuu]

The end of s3 ep 19 is the gayest fucking thing to ever appear on television and you can’t argue against that! McCoy really went to define the feeling of “love” and instead dexcribed the EXACT nature of Kirk and Spock’s relationship and then said. Welp sucks to be you Spok, you’ll never know love. Meanwhile I’m sitting here loosing my mind wondering how did this ever get to air on live tv.

Like I’m all for suspension of disbelief but this shit can’t be anything but on purpose… bro literally said “you’ll never know what live can drive a man to- the ecstasies, the miseries, the broken rules, the desperate chances, the glorious fairies, the glorious victories…” to the one person who at this point broke every rule imaginable, cheated death and fucked over the rules of the universe to keep his damn captain alive… I swear these idiots WILL be the death of me XD

[dig-jules]

the cut scene of sulu meeting his great grandfather in TVH explains a lot about him saying "san francisco. i was born there!" when they were landing. because like yeah. literally everyone on the bridge knows that you fucking idiot. they've worked with you for like 10 years plus they literally all went to college there so none of them care at all.

....but i care. i love that you just said that for no reason. that's like if everyone was going to vulcan and spock was like "i was born there :D" girl we know but live your truth and thank you for telling me

[muirmarie]

🍄💾 (hi this is margot ❤️)

🍄Decriscribe your wip/one of your wips in the format of “___ + ___ =___”

Spock thinking he took advantage of McCoy's kindness + Kirk being distracted by his own loss + McCoy spiraling with guilt = a medical achievement that's about to spawn like 11 new fields of study 😌 (but also, unfortunately, having to Talk about Feelings 😔)

💾What is your document of your wip/ a wip called? (not the stories actual title but what you’ve saved it as)

Okay so most of my docs are saved as the prompt or the title so it's very boring, BUT I do have one that's saved as "the fuck me kiss me story" lmao

(the story is less interesting, it's just fully stealing the de & bill blooper where they both say "kiss me" and laugh - McCoy and Kirk have a running joke where "kiss me" is their SFW version of the "fuck me" swear, and "don't make me kiss you" their SFW version of "fuck you," and they extremely annoyingly to everyone around them say it ALL THE TIME (hashtag obnoxious besties). Until one day McCoy, without thinking, says "kiss me" to Spock, and Spock's just "well if you insist," and actually kisses him, and Kirk thinks that's so funny he just. Starts. Kissing McCoy all the time as well whenever they're trying to SFW swear. Why is McCoy friends with these idiots. Why. Extremely pre- even their own realizations they even WANT a relationship (except for Spock, I think he Knows What He Wants tbh))

tyyyy for the questions!!

[ineffable-snowman]

Get to know the blogger, via five different ships from five different fandoms! (I cheated and made it five different ships from four different fandoms.)

Thanks for tagging me @sky-kenobye!

1. Ineffable husbands/wives/partners/idiots (Good Omens)

My comfort show and ship. What's not to love about the slowest of slow burns hereditary enemies to lovers? For this ship, almost everything works, even several tropes I've never seen the appeal of before make sense to me now (wing fic, gender bending... just to name a few).

On a personal note, it was through this show (or rather its fandom) that I figured out I might be on the aro/ace spectrum, just the experience of "There are other people who feel like that? There are names for that?" was wonderful and so that's also why it holds a special place in my heart. It's just overall a really positive fandom. Plus Neil Gaiman is on tumblr, which - although I hate celebrity culture - is cool.

2. Obikin (Star Wars)

My oldest ship. I started shipping them in 2005 when ROTS came out, I was gripped by the tragedy of the Obi-Wan&Anakin relationship (it was my introduction to Star Wars, I had no idea who Darth Vader was) and started writing fix-it fics to cope. The first fanfic I posted online was an epic Qui-Gon lives (for a while) AU ending in a Vader redemption arc through the power of friendship. I really like reading platonic Anakin & Obi-Wan, but usually go for the Obikin tag on AO3 because I'm too scared of antis and I know the Obikin writers are cool people. Although the Star Wars fandom as a whole has some ugly sides, I really enjoy the smaller Obikin fandom. Shoutout to my Obikin mutuals, who all are such nice, positive and chill people! No purity wanks, no shitting on other people's ships or kinks... maybe because we know we ship one of the most *problematic* pairings and that fiction =/= reality.

3. Stony (MCU)

I ship them not inspite of Civil War but BECAUSE of it. As a seasoned shipper of Obikin, Cherik and Grindeldore (insert obligatory fuck JKR here), I was like: ooooh, nice, this is the good stuff! Unfortunately, most of the fandom doesn't seem to share my excitement.

4. Sambucky (MCU again)

Boat montage, enough said.

In terms of fandom, it was an eye-opener regarding casual or subtle racism in fandom.

5. Kirk/Spock/McCoy (Star Trek)

Normally I'm not that interested in OT3s but I make an exception for these three. I also enjoy any combination of them (Spirk, Spones and McKirk are all great ships) but I need the third one to be there as well, and not just as a friend who sometimes gives advice to help the other two get together but as an important character in his own way.

Let me end with a controversial opinion: Star Trek V - The Final Frontier is my favourite Star Trek movie.

no pressure tagging @starwalkertales, @piecesofeden11, @fangeek-girl, @fulcrum843, @blue-eyed-cutiepatootie, @gingiekittycat and everyone else who hasn't done it yet!

⛵Five Fandoms, Five Ships ⛵

Get to know the blogger, via five different ships from five different fandoms!

Thanks for the tag @dark--whisperings, @wibzenadarksiderwithasoftheart and @somethingsteff! ❤️❤️❤️

I currently only have one ship and you all know who it is 😂. I haven't been in many fandoms and have only posted fics for one other ship, which is not on this list because I left that fandom when people couldn't respect "don't like don't read" and things turned quite sour.

Obi-Wan Kenobi/Anakin Skywalker (Star Wars). I adore these idiots and I spend 99% of my waking hours thinking about them. I'm obsessed with them being obsessed with each other. I watched the OWK series about a year ago and made the mistake of opening AO3... and now here I am, 15 fics and 200k words later, still brainrotting away.

Mulder/Scully (X-Files). Many many many moons ago, I stumbled across something called fanfic while using dial up to access the internet when I was in high school. The first fanfic I wrote was for this ship (though I didn't post it online). I first learned of "slash" or "M/M" was while in the X-Files fandom. They used to host all the fanfics on a site called Gossamer. Good times.

Lance Bass/JC Chasez (NSync). This was my introduction to RPF. A friend of mine at the time wrote for this ship (although her fics were all PG-13) and that's how I learned about it. I was mostly an observer for this fandom, never wrote for it, and honestly, I can't even remember where the fics were posted. (JC is the most talented vocalist in NSync. I will die on this hill.)

Kirk/Spock (Star Trek Reboot). I didn't get into K/S until the reboot era (thank you, Chris Pine). At the time, AO3 was just a baby and most people were posting their fics on fanfiction or livejournal. This was my introduction to tropes like fuck-or-die, tentacles, and mpreg.

Peter/Neal (White Collar). This is a stretch, because I didn't really ship this, but I beta-read for a friend I met in a different fandom who wrote this ship.

No pressure tags (sorry if you've already been tagged!): @sky-kenobye, @fangeek-girl, @to-proudly-go, @ineffableobikin, @teaforkenobi and anyone else who wants to play! ❤️

S3 EP8 (For The World Is Hollow And I Have Touched The Sky) welp that’s the longest title in tos and this is a long post because I was not normal about this episode

Let’s get it started:

- Immediate red alert with Spock in charge

- You think they ever held hands?

- What’s got Chapel so upset? She’s most likely right about whatever it is

- The way he kind of yells and then lowers his voice and just says, “Please, Christine. I promise I’ll give the captain a full report.” He’s not actually mad at her and he knows she’s just looking out for him but he’s scared

- Bones can’t say that he’s the one who’s dying. He can’t admit it out loud. He says that the cmo has it (not even gonna try and spell the diseases name)

- “Without me, Jim? You’d never find your way back.” My heart- oh my heart. He doesn’t want to be cut away from the crew, let alone Jim and Spock.

- Spock is standing in the transporter room like, ‘What is going on?’

- This asteroid looks like the planet where Tasha dies to the goop in TNG

- I was looking at McCoy about to beat someone up and then it was violently revealed to be a stunt double… obviously

- McCoy was fairing pretty well in that fight until he looked at that lady

- Kirk not only fighting to get to an injured McCoy but begging (he’s using his words cause he cares about him sooo much)

- Normal! Normal thoughts and feelings 🙂

- Okay I know not very relevant to anything but I’m appreciating the stairs shot

- “You will kneel.” All three of them just go, ‘okay’

- Absolutely stunning wardrobe, makeup, and hair for the priestess though

- “THEN LEARN WHAT IT MEANS TO BE OUR ENEMY BEFORE YOU LEARN WHAT IT MEANS TO BE OUR FRIEND.” Get fucking zapped, idiots

- mhm mhm

- Good thing Kirk’s not a doctor (especially a therapist) cause this man is NOT confidential

- Kirk looks so sad. Holy shit .

- McCoy’s like sleeping beauty, cause he’s beautiful… and sleeping I guess

- MHM YEAH. So UHM SPOCK JUST- he just grabbed McCoy’s shoulder to help him up. Why does this have me blushing???

- “Well we’d better get to the control room.” Is this just the normal procedure? Find the control room -> blow shit up

- McCoy immediately tastes the random substance

- he’s dead. (Edit: NOT McCoy! The random guy)

- He CHOSE to sit in the sluttiest way possible. No wonder everyone wants him DAMN

- ‘Bones listen, you’ve got to seduce her. For the mission.’

- I- she loves his stunning blue eyes

- “Is there a woman for you?” He takes way too long to answer this. How do you explain that she just met your two boyfriends

- I love her. I don’t care. She’s so amazing. Like “Until I saw you there was nothing in my heart. It sustained my life, but nothing more. Now it sings. I could be happy to have that feeling for a day, a week, a month…a year.”

- Hiding behind a pillar works…

- Spock and Kirk listening to Natira asking the god if she can have McCoy as her mate and both of them look so ready to attack

- GET ZAPPED IDIOTS

- “for me” 🥺🥺🥺

- THE FUCKING HAND KISS

- “You’re returning with us.” “Dr. McCoy I order you to return with us.” Kirk knows this won’t work but he’s desperately clinging onto any last thing that could keep them together

- “Your decision is most illogical, Doctor.” “Is it, Mr Spock? Is it really?” IM SORRY THIS MOMENT?!? are we? are we not going to talk about this? There’s no real fight between them here. It’s Spock telling McCoy this is ‘illogical’ because he doesn’t want him to leave. And McCoy’s reply is calling Spock out, basically acknowledging that he knows what Spock is saying but also challenging him to find another reason for him to actually stay :(((((((((

- Kirk’s going to cry. That long look from McCoy looks like he’s going to cry. He’s going to cry. I’m going to cry.

- After the breakup :( Kirk is in silent hurt and Spock is pouting (he’s gonna listen to Logical by Olivia Rodrigo after this)

- WOW. McCoy wasn’t sure if they’d actually leave him. I think, if I may speculate, that McCoy was expecting rejection (as a doctor, crew member, friend even) because of his illness. Then Natira wants him, and as she states, she’ll have him for however long she can. Now, McCoy thinking that he’ll inevitably get pushed aside by the people he’s closest to is testing them. It’s a win- win situation for him, right? Either Spock and Kirk force him to go back with them, proving they won’t leave him, or he stays with Natira for the rest of his days. Ideal situation… but I don’t think he actually thought they’d leave him.

- congrats on the marriage I guess

- I like how McCoy is still in his starfleet uniform… no I do not, let him change clothes

- “Starfleet command will take care of the situation.” They’re gonna blow it up.

- “An urgent call from dr. McCoy, sir.” This is like after a break up texting, ‘you up?’

- McCoy stops answering the phone so Kirk and Spock immediately beam down to the planet they’re banned from to save him <3

- That was a fast divorce. This is the second time that they’ve helped each other divorce someone.

- THEYRE BEING PUT IN AN OVEN

- If McCoy and Natira went to an event together everyone there would fall in love with both of them immediately

- The chin tilt. He looks down and she tilts his chin back up. I love them both

- “Which indicates that the flow of oxygen to each cell of your body is back up to its abundantly energetic level.” Spock says this and is basically smiling in relief (you have to see it to believe it)

- Kirk is still in support of his boyfriend’s wife

Honestly 10/10 episode. Thank you so much for this one.

STRANGE NEW WORLDS | S2E1 "The Broken Circle"

So disappointed and sad by SNW S2 E1, the fuck with Chapel being such a "key focus" character in this as the next super white love interest no few actually sane, decent trekkies ask for (and whom Spock already canonically denied in Naked Time without an inkling of ANY feeling directed towards her whatsoever...)

Such a weak start to the season for so many reasons, very weak episode, weak composition (almost rudimentary) nigh Discovery S1 flavoured structural engineering and writing (hurls). (And no, I am not saying anything against the actors themselves, they did fine with what they were written to do...)

Such a commoditised Spock. He is just made to be the spectacle star elephant at the circus; crass idiots abusing his "characterisation" as a pay-per-view zoo performance on the next "What Else Can Spock Do That's Un-Spock?" show. Getting away with substanceless, cardboard thin shit so long as they sprinkle out the every-20-minutes Nostalgia Card (oh Vulcan Lyre this, fake-ass "Spirk" hint joke on the SDCC interview that) that they know people will eat the shit out of like mindless animals (cuz they fucking do). Crying over Chapel TWICE (not M'Benga mind you since he leaves him to potentially die on the transporter pad, no muss haHA), and "Known to drink bloodwine - RAA RAA RAA" my fucking ass. So sick of Spock made to do what he isn't, instead of teaching to us more on who he is…

But mostly - most grotesquely that marked this episode as actually despicable that NO ONE is talking about that is the most OBVIOUS FUCKING ISSUE IN THE EPISODE is the utter racial negligence done to M'Benga (by fucking Spock no less, and forget the fact that Uhura was a complete throwaway in this episode and still ever the same "glorified space receptionist" with maybe 5 more words than usual despite its fucking afterthought of a "in memory of" bullshit with no revision at all...) and how so many of you didnt bat a single eye nor give a single damn on the most blatantly filmed/spliced/edited/directed racist shit in this episode...

And to fucking call "this" an episode dedicated to Nichelle Nichols...

Fuck you.
