“James T Kirk. How did you find me?”

Spock: "Wedding off. Captain? Remove your shirt and meet me on <random fancy place on Vulcan>!"

wyd if your captain is at your wedding with his boobs out

My parents called me for dinner. I said I will come later because I’m busy right now…

It is true. I am busy crying.

i wanna be perfectly clear that i felt nothing for the stark trek unification video besides contempt for the CGI and the potato quality of it on my phone, until i realized that lump on the bed was spock.

y’all idk what i was expecting when my friend sent me the link describing it as “destiel confirmed but for spirk” but i was not expecting the sweet bliss of two men irrevocably bound by destiny staring off into the sunset as they go towards death together

that’s when they got me, because spock fucking deserves nice things and to not die alone in a universe far from his own.

not to mention kirk’s own death in canon. i am officially headcannoning that kirk appeared to spock in his final moments via some weird magic with the nexus and then they went together peacefully.

also the fact that this was titled “unification” and not “reunification,” that’s very sweet, very mindful, very demure as they tear out my heart and remind me of the promise of spirk to see each other again across space and time.

but also, not to be ungrateful to the very clear amount of money by the cgi thrown at this. WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG TO GET THIS. and the fact that we’re all going so feral over two men holding hands staring off into the sunset without them ever saying an entire word. this was not in my 2024 bingo card

@rainbow-person hi saw your tags!

According to my research, yes the producers know a large portion of the fandom extrapolated and consider the Vulcan finger touch to be a kiss. They have outright said it’s not, and it’s the equivalent of handholding—just a sweet romantic gesture, but fandoms will fandom anyway, and thus the assumption made from the scenes where Vulcan’s would touch fingers as a form of affection with their spouse lives on in Star Trek fandom culture. Regardless though, they absolutely know fans headcanon the interaction differently than they intended. I believe they continue to add the interaction despite the misconception because they aren’t changing the original intent just because it was misunderstood, which is valid. But as started prior, fandoms will fandom the way fandoms will fandom and a large chunk of fans will always see a kiss.

like maybe unification didn't make spirk canon in that we didn't see them make out with tongue or whatever but what it did make canon and what makes it so incredibly important to me is that kirk and spock's ending is no longer so goddamn tragic.

before, jim died in his sixties and spock spent the next 100+ years missing him before dying alone. now, even with all the tragedy and heartbreak and the lifetime spent apart, they were together in the end. they were together and happy and everything was beautiful!!

[smilechiales]

I'm so happy for the premise! This is also so important fandom history!

Kirk and Spock walked, so that Dean Winchester could stare blankly at a wall while the love of his life confessed his feelings to him!

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK YOU GUYS WHAT DO YOU MEAN SPIRK CANON IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD 2024

alright so tomorrow I'm off to buy an ouija board or something cause there's no way I'm going to let my father, also known as the #1 spirk enjoyer back in the old times, stay in the grave for this one

[pendragonsclotpole]

literally, when my friend sent it to me i was like, hmm okay and is there any reference to anything like *checks notes* THE quote from the city on the edge of forever

I know I'm being a bit of a hater here, but I'm seeing folks going "OMG, Spirk is canon!" over 765874 - Unification, and then I watch it myself and I'm like... that's it? Yeah, it's a well-produced bit of fluff from a technical standpoint, but there were gayer moments in the Original Series, and if your intention is to celebrate a ship, "somewhat less gay than a TV show from 1966" is not an ambitious target!

My two gay dads <3

[pendragonsclotpole]

why are all the big “insert name slash ship is canon” events always four years apart in november? like it’s only happened twice so far but twice is more than i expected

what’s on the slate for the end of the month in four years, a ten episode merlin series reboot with a merthur confirmation and reunification in the modern day??????

fuck, imagine if it’s hannibal season four. double fuck, what does that mean for the election??
