the devil in the dark is a great episode for sooooo many reasons but something i particularly love is its characterization of kirk & spock, especially how the story juxtaposes their initial attitudes vs. their actions as well as juxtaposing them against one another. for most of the episode, kirk is very firmly situated in the command role: he’s laser-focused on his goal of eliminating whatever has been killing the miners. he has a plan & he sticks to it. he can’t afford to entertain ideas about capturing the creature for scientific study rather than killing it, because that introduces more risk to his crew. his mission is to protect as many lives as possible, full stop.
however, when he sees the horta in that cave, his first instinct isn’t to shoot. he’s wary of course, brandishing a phaser for his own safety, but he’s also curious & gentle. he studies her with wonder shining in his eyes. his movements mirror her own—he immediately picks up on the fact that she isn’t necessarily hostile towards him, & in response, he slowly, carefully, sets aside his own hostility as well. he speaks to her, makes little jokes. he watches her in perpetual amazement & intrigue, very cautiously extending a metaphorical hand to say, i don’t want to hurt you. it’s a big leap from “your orders are shoot to kill,” & that reveals a lot about kirk. he’s a good commander, he knows how to handle a dangerous situation while minimizing risk to his crew, but he’s also curious. kind. optimistic. gentle. in the heat of the moment, when he’s the only one at risk, his basic instinct doesn’t say fight, it says listen.
meanwhile, spock is immensely intrigued by the horta; he regrets that it will most likely be necessary to kill her in order to protect themselves. he spends most of the episode speculating on the fascinating science of a silicone-based life form. he even (very subtly) challenges kirk’s order by telling the security team to capture the creature if possible. he isn’t eager to use force, because he simply isn’t that kind of person—he’s curious by nature, like kirk. so it seems a great shift when, upon hearing that the horta is near kirk, he shouts through the communicator, “kill it, captain! kill it!”
realizing that kirk is in danger is like flipping a switch. the way he carries himself changes in an instant. urgency flares to life in his eyes & voice. as wild with it as a vulcan can get. freezing in place, then breaking into a run, calling out, forgetting rank. to him, the most preferable—the most logical—course of action is not to explore why the horta has not attacked the captain yet; rather, it is to eliminate the threat to kirk as soon as possible.
in a way, they represent both a reversal & a mirror of each other in this episode. kirk is a decisive & capable fighter, but his instincts steer him towards gentler things. spock prioritizes scientific inquiry & discovery, but it all appears inconsequential when his friend’s life is on the line. they balance each other, complement each other. it’s why they’re such a good command team. it’s why they fall so easily into such a deep bond. both of them, ultimately, act from a place of love.

more for the garashir fairytale grab bag AU I am never going to actually write: garak knows exactly what would break his curse from the start, he just never tells anyone for the longest time b/c he's so sure it could never happen
(it's asking forgiveness, of course. he thinks it's tain's forgiveness he needs, and tain is fucking dead and knew he would be by the time garak woke up so it seems the perfect unbreakable parting fuck-you revenge curse. and garak would expect nothing less from his father than that, so he's resigned to dwindling away painfully. enter julian bashir and his fierce force-of-nature compassion (and also secret illicit immense magical powers) with a steel chair!!! to go 'OH YEAH??? we'll see about that', as you might expect. oh. OH necromancer-ish julian calling tain's ghost up to ask him about what the hell he did and how to undo it, ala his gambit to go see him the wire? and the knowledge he gains from that is what confirms garak's suspicions as to what is Up with this handsome young healer mage because it could be known only by those long dead. cue east of the sun west of the moon part of the narrative once julian understands his game is up and runs away??
anyway getting some true love's kissing in by the end of it all is just a nice bonus it's not needed like strictly magically for either of their situations lol)
#garashir#star trek#ds9#star trek ds9#elim garak#julian bashir#the sleeping beauty part is an entirely separate curse btw. tain really wanted that shit to pile up lol#I wonder what fucked up thing you'd do to Julian magically to be the equivalent of genetic engineering#splicing something into his soul maybe? turning him into a wildly powerful but 'dangerous' kind of sorcerer in the process?#something about violating his innermost essence at least that's kind of the thematic significance of it#people pointing at him after the reveal going 'THOSE ARE DARK LORD POWERS YOU FREAK' and he's like#'*barely holding back tears of frustration and exhaustion* I just wanna be a lil healer main can you guys fucking let me live....'#maybe like... when you've cracked someone's soul open once it's considered a sanctity breached or something. anything could get in#maybe ds9 is like... the cardassian ruin where they find garak sleeping (yeah I'm doing an sga/howl's moving castle thing in my head)#he still claims he's just a simple tailor upon being woken up and getting the castle to fly them out of danger. of course.#he also still hates the place as much as he did in the show it was considered a shitty backwater place to be stationed back in the day#guys. I think I am cooking but unfortunately I'm perpetually burnt out I don't have enough fuel to make anything of it lmao

Character Spotlight: Harry Kim
By Ames
This week’s character spotlight shines on the Voyager’s favorite forever-ensign, Harry Kim, who lord knows has done enough throughout the show to warrant enough promotions to rival Janeway and yet who wallows away with his single pip for the entirety. But your hosts here at A Star to Steer Her By know enough to appreciate all that the little clarinet dork does for us.
Harry’s another consistently solid character, like Chakotay, who really only gets a couple episodes to stand out in, but we love him anyway. He suffers nearly as much as O’Brien, he gets shot down fewer times than only Worf, and he’s lousy with women in ways La Forge could understand. So grab some good seats for this Harry Kim and the Kimtones concert as you scroll on below and/or listen in on this week’s podcast episode (toot over to 1:13:23). Your promotion time will surely come.

Best moments
We’ve got to go back, Tommy! Back to the Voyager! Harry’s got the strange opportunity in “Non Sequitur” to stay in a parallel universe in which he’s not trapped in the Delta Quadrant fighting for his life every week, but he opts to correct the timeline and go back, allowing Tom to get his chance at redemption and getting his friend Danny Byrd into the correct life. Or maybe he just wanted to get away from Libby that badly.
Weird is part of the job As Chris wrote about in his Harry Kim fanfic, the ensign also has the unusual distinction of being the only character (other than baby Naomi) to technically be from a different timeline. When his Voyager is under attack by those damn Vidiians again in “Deadlock,” Kim saves the infant from imminent danger, and gets to have an identity crisis about it for the rest of his life.
There’s nothing to fear except clowns themselves Some-freaking-how, Ensign Kim is able to keep his [remote] cool throughout “The Thaw” while that psychotic clown is torturing him and trying to literally frighten him to death. Harry spends much of the episode standing up courageously against an exemplary performance from Michael McKean and his band of Cirque du Soleil performers until he’s finally rescued.
This man is my friend. Nobody touches him! We gave some great props to Paris for how much he worked with Kim to escape from the prison ship in “The Chute,” but the real hero of the episode is Kim. When Paris has been incapacitated by a nasty stab wound, Harry fends off tons of prisoners who are vying for Paris’s belongings, and he keeps his friend alive even while being driven mad by the clamp.
Go ahead, make the call Somehow, most of these moments have been “Harry stands up to the powerful figure of the week who has captured him,” and it’s no different in “The Killing Game” when he’s covertly working against his Hirogen guards without them noticing. Right in front of them, no less. Maybe we just like when quiet, unassuming Harry proves that he’s got that Voyager chutzpah.
Somebody has got to knuckle down and change history, and that somebody is you There’s something about brooding Harry in “Timeless.” Not only is it some great acting work from Garrett Wang, but we also get to see what happens when Harry pushes himself too far. Wracked by years of guilt, he finally seizes the opportunity to save the Voyager from a past mistake and break the Temporal Prime Directive – although no more than Janeway on a given Tuesday.
Hook, line, and sinker Much of Voyager is steeped in technobabble from all of the science-conscious characters, and occasionally we get to see Harry pull some scientific knowhow out of his ass. In “Dark Frontier,” the episode opens with Harry beaming a bomb onto a Borg vessel like a badass and blowing them to smithereens before they could even say “You will be assimilated.”
Infected with a disease called love We gave Janeway some flak for treating Harry like a little baby for getting busy with an alien in “The Disease,” but ya know what: we really liked him and Derran Tal together! The whole episode long, we’re led to surmise that something shady is going down with her and the Varro, but it turns out Harry is just willing to make a go of it with someone he fancies, and that’s nice.
When taken captive by a hostile force, seek out any opportunity to engage the assailant Kirk may be the king at talking machines into killing themselves, but Kim does it with such panache in “Warhead.” He’s so willing to empathize with and communicate with the homicidal warhead that I still contend this should have been a Chakotay episode. But since it’s Harry that does it, you’ve got to give him credit for convincing the missile not to kill its enemy after all.
How do you feel about going for a little walk? When Harry eludes capture by Borg in “Collective,” he uses some smarts and strategy to communicate with the Voyager from the Delta Flyer and devise a plan. Particularly cute is his use of playing cards to mark his trail through the labyrinthine Borg vessel. Sure, Mezoti finds him out and captures him, but that’s just because Mezoti is the best.
Own the day We’ll go on in the next section about some lousy relationships Kim finds himself in, but we’ve got to hand it to him: he and Lyndsay Ballard were super sweet together in “Ashes to Ashes.” Ballard is going through a pretty substantial identity crisis after returning from the dead (something Harry knows a lot about!) and Harry is there to be supportive without pressuring her.
Big Willy Energy We really couldn’t help but include this one. We also learn in “Ashes to Ashes” that Harry has moved on from the clarinet to the saxophone. Ya know, to emulate the vibes of a certain saxophone-playing president. We get a glimpse of him practicing in “Lineage” and we’ve got to admit: Harry Kim is just so cool. He should have gotten promoted for this alone!

Worst moments
Didn’t they warn you about Ferengi at the Academy? It’d be too obvious to say that Harry Kim nearly got swindled by Quark during his very first scene in “Caretaker,” but the way he does it is the most Harry Kim moment of the whole show. Our sweet summer child, fresh from the Academy, first tries to avoid getting swindled but offends Quark in doing so, and basically swindles himself until Paris swoops in and rights the situation.
Something about it reminds me of being in the womb This is just an offhand remark from Harry, but it’s so strange that it’s sat with us all this time. Harry claims in “The Cloud” that he remembers being in the womb, and wearing his mask to bed at night reminds him of this. Not a womblike allegory, mind you. The literal memory of his existence pre-birth. You’re a weird guy, Harry. Good luck ever living this down.
This is my only chance to get home The leap of logic when Harry decides to get himself killed in “Emanations” and get resurrected right away on the Voyager is one only the most desperate man would take. There is so little reason for him to think this literally suicidal plan will work except that he’s got to hope for the best. In doing so, Harry becomes the first (but not the last) crewmember to die and come back.
I want to eliminate emotions, like Vulcans do So it’s not the worst moment for Harry to fall in love with a hologram in “Alter Ego.” Everyone else does it all the time. It’s that he’s managed to sink into the delusion so far that he determines to purge himself of emotions with Tuvok’s help. Overreact much, Harry? To him, Morena’s just a hologram girl, and he’s even more obsessed with her than Janeway is of Michael Sullivan!
I still say you should have kept some of those spots Even after the rest of the show unfolded, I’m left unsure what to make of “Favorite Son.” It’s yet another example of how Harry seems to have no clue what to do with himself when around pretty girls (more on that in a moment). The Taresians trick him so easily into joining their cultish society just by promising lots of sex with pretty ladies, and that’s all it takes. You poor naive thing.
Imagine having Tom for a father-in-law I’ve been outvoted by the other SSHB hosts who think it’s squicky for Harry from “Before and After” to marry Kes’s and Tom’s daughter Linnis (who seems like a catch!). I guess it can be considered some kind of uncomfortable grooming because he would have basically watched her grow up since she’s part Ocampan, but can we really put that on sweet, innocent Harry?
Then you wish to copulate? The other really hormonal behavior we get out of Harry is any time he’s in Seven’s company. In “Revulsion,” it’s downright uncomfortable to watch their interactions because he doesn’t know how to act around his crush, and then the writers have to sexually charge the B-plot by having Seven offer to bang him, merely to titillate the viewers and for no other good reason. Ugh.
They trusted me, and I killed them! While we do like Harry in “Timeless,” and the episode itself is a clever use of time travel, you’ve got to put some blame on Harry for causing the catastrophe he goes back to fix in the first place. And what’s worse, he does it again and still can’t save the Voyager from the slipstream accident even after years of trying to get the equation solved!
If we succeed, those charges will never have existed in the first place One more moment from the “Timeless” since it’s probably got the most Harry action in all of Voyager (and we just love his tortured-soul look). But frankly, sacrificing a whole timeline full of people going about their lives just to save your friends is selfish. And on this show, the only person who gets to do that is Janeway! Captain Braxton was right all along!
You’re looking at your new co-pilot Okay so this moment is mostly an excuse to show off the Delta Flyer uniforms from “Drive” that we love so much. But also, it’s another example of Harry being led around by his boner again! This man is so blinded whenever there’s a sexy lady in the room, and he jumps at the chance to join Irina’s race team even when it nearly gets him killed in a terrorist attack.
I believe you’re the one who’s been relieved Boy, does this episode do Harry dirty. If you were ever upset that Harry never gets promoted during the course of the show, “Nightingale” shows you why. This poor guy just doesn’t know how to lead. The moment he takes command of the Nightingale, he turns into a micromanaging asshole and the whole crew mutinies immediately. No wonder Kim is a Forever Ensign.
Maybe all those command subroutines are compromising your medical abilities Both Harry Kim and the Emergency Medical Hologram – excuse me, Emergency Command Hologram – are out of character throughout all of “Workforce.” The ECH is so desperate to show off his command skills and Harry is just as desperate to one-up him every time that their whole subplot becomes a dick-measuring contest that no one’s going to win. Ew.
—
And that’s it for our saxophone solo this week. Harry’s just so cool, guys. And we’ve got more cool guys to talk about in the coming weeks, so make sure you’re following along here, keeping up with our watchthrough of Enterprise over on SoundCloud or wherever you podcast, practice some scales over on Facebook and Twitter, and never think about the fact that you’re actually from a parallel universe. Oh the identity crisis of it all!

Writers Guild Presents: Crowley Has a Vulcan
Written by phoenixrose2, find them on Reddit and AO3
CW/TW: none
Summary: What's a demon to do when he suddenly has a Vulcan sitting on his shoulder who won't stop commenting on his behavior being illogical? (No knowledge of Star Trek required at all.)
A silly and fun 1.3k piece of fluff inspired by u/Doonarose pointing out a typo I made on a comment on the AMAZING Good Omens Choose Your Own Adventure (CYOA) Coming Home. If you haven't adventured through that masterpiece, you are missing out, there is so much to explore!
Excerpt:
“No. No. Nononono! Angel, you must see him, don’t you? He’s been living there for two centuries, commenting on every action I take or don’t take that would result in harm.”
Aziraphale pondered this for a moment before replying, “Are you saying that She gave you a conscience?”
Spock piped up at that, “Not quite, Aziraphale. But that is a logical conclusion to draw given the limited set of information you have been given.”
Aziraphale jumped in his seat, startled that he could suddenly see what he thought was a figment of Crowley’s vast imagination. Then he cleared his throat and clasped his hands together.
“Why hello there. It seems I am at a disadvantage, how would you like to be addressed?”

Forgive the Children We Once Were by Delta Rae
We grew up in golden light | Every chance to get it right | What did we do with it? It’s gone, what I had back then is gone…All the lines we knew back then, they now are faded | All the laws we once obeyed, they have betrayed us | People that I used to hate, I hardly remember | Forgive the children we once were
Eyes Open by Taylor Swift
The tricky thing is yesterday we were just children | Playing soldiers, just pretending…So here you are, two steps ahead and staying on guard | Every lesson forms a new scar...Everybody's waiting for you to break down | Everybody's watching to see the fallout | Even when you're sleeping, sleeping | Keep your eyes open…
Notos by The Oh Hellos
And you will drown in the wake | Of the things you said that you can't take back, no | And every word you shouldn't say | Will come bubbling out of your throat | But you've got no one left to blame | For the things you lost to the winds of Notos | You gotta let go
Ain’t No Crying by Derivakat
What am I fighting for | Whose side am I on | Lost everything in the crossfire | Witness the wreckage at dawn | Say it enough and you start believing | They can tell you that it's righteous | Keep your chin up in the crisis…What am I fighting for | What have I done | What am I dying for | What have we all become...
Hurricane by Thirty Seconds to Mars
As days go by, the night's on fire | Tell me would you kill to save a life? | Tell me would you kill to prove you're right? Crash, crash, burn, let it all burn | This hurricane's chasing us all underground…
Die For You by STARSET
And when all the fires burn | When everything is overturning | There's no thing that I won't go through | Even if I have to die for you...And I'll bring you home | Even if the sky does fall | Even if they take it all | I can't see but I'll follow you | Even if I'd die...
I Have Made Mistakes by The Oh Hellos
We have lived in fear, and our fear has betrayed us | But we will overcome the apathy that has made us | Because we are not alone in the dark with our demons | And we have made mistakes | But we've learned from them…And oh my heart, how can I face you now? | When we both know how badly I have let you down
In Our Bedroom After the War by Stars
It's us, yes, we're back again | Here to see you through 'til the day's end | And if the night comes, and the night will come | Well at least the war is over | Lift your head and look out the window | Stay that way for the rest of the day and watch the time go | Listen, the birds sing | Listen, the bells ring | All the living are dead, and the dead are all living | The war is over and we are beginning...
Someone To You by BANNERS
I don't even need to change the world | I'll make the moon shine just for your view | I'll make the starlight circle the room | And if you feel like night is falling | I wanna be the one you're calling | 'Cause I believe that you could lead the way…
The Future’s Right In Front of Me by A Great Big World
I learned my lesson, it was wrong of me to look so far ahead | I'll count my blessings one by one, I'll live a life I won't regret…I walked alone, I was scared of who I knew that I could be | But there was beauty in the darkest parts of my uncertainty | And now I finally see the future's right in front of me, yeah…
#jim kirk#star trek aos#star trek#my playlists#character playlists#as an aside#achilles come down and soap are literally the most aos jim&bones songs i've ever heard#also i know there's like an abundance of oh hellos songs in here#but they're so good for NARRATIVE#also also look beyond is my favourite aos film#but 09/into darkness slot together so well narratively in terms of jim's character arc#beyond is his continuing growth After that#but 09 & into darkness are one arc in two parts#which is a long-winded way of saying that's why i cut it there lmao

....oh, good heavens.
Now I'm imagining my very favorite blunt Romulan making it quite clear he finds my very small hands quite alluring all tangled up in yarn or embroidery floss.
"A dilemma. I want to help you but I also find the sight of your hands entwined in yarn somehow enticing to look at."
😳
Actually...I've got another one.
Long-haired people, imagine your Romulan or Vulcan of choice admiring your hands as you braid your hair.
Imagine, if they are long-haired (*coughElnorcough*) them requesting you to braid *their* hair.
And imagine if they wanted you to braid their hair in front of a mirror just so they could watch your skillful fingers entwined in their hair....
😏🫠😉
Thinking about how hot Vulcans and Romulans would find a human playing string instruments and/or the piano. Nimble fingers, the dexterity 👀. Someone else I told this to pointed out that crochet and knitting are also on the table as turn ons.
Me, crocheting away like a granny: 👵🏼🧶
Romulan/Vulcan:
(P.s. glad your fam stuff has somewhat settled (?) 💚)
OOOOOOOHHHHHH THAT IS CERTAINLY A THOUGHT™. I wonder if they'd think the same about embroidery?? After all, that has needles and stabbing and delicate hand movements... Definitely not wondering because I embroider like a granny or anything... 👀
Thank you so much for putting this into my ask box and MY BRAIN. I shall obsess over it ponder it carefully!!!
And thank you! Yes, the family situation is settled. It's all good! things are back to normal, now! 💖
#vulcans#romulans#vulcanoids#star trek#star trek after dark#the spicy headcanons#mm hmm hmm it's gettin' hot in here

#tfw u spend the day being catastrophically depressed then u remember how kush1na uzumak1 is treated by the plot of#narut0 and u get so fucking angry that u stop thinking abt how miserable u r for 2hrs as u furiously draw out an idea#it makes me so fucking mad. but like in a way that fun bc its like who cares its not that serious#and when i get depressed i just like. i dont give a fuck abt anything. there is a film between me and everything and nothing can touch me#except apparently my fucking insane feelings about narut0. like im genuinely so embarrassing when ppl irl make the mistake of talking abt#narut0 to me irl. like i get SO excited. i move my arms a lot and stamp my feet and just get real enthusiastic and my voice goes all weird#and i cant get my thoughts straight bc i have so so so much to say. which is like fine. its just embarrassing to me personally#bc i kno i tent to stay on the subjects im interested in for way longer than most ppl would probably enjoy#and after i watched star trek into darkness in hs i was like at my peak star trek phase and i was talking a mile a minute#and then my sister was like: y is your voice all weird? and it was like she slapped me in the face. slapped me thru time. u bitch 😭#this is y im not allowed to enjoy things 😭 also bc im annoying abt it. ugh. anyway. point is i got so mad abt the misogyny of kishimoto#that i forgot how fucking awful i was feeling for a minute. so thank u for hating women so much u fucking bastard lol#when will i post the idea im planning? who tf knows. its gonna take. well idk how long itll take#unrelated
