Recently been obsessed with the idea of Jim being just a little chubby. Jim, always finishing his food, always saying yes to dessert, always agreeing to cafe and meal arrangements, and gaining a little weight cause of those habits, and he loves it. Loves his body, loves the way his thighs touch and his arms jiggle, all because of Tarsus IV. All because he can remember a time where he could easily count all of his ribs, where even just staying awake was a struggle, cause he had no energy, cause he hadn’t eaten in days.

That’s just me though

Stay for the summer...if you dare.

My new book "Summer in Horseheads" is available now! 🐴🦴

A creeptastic summery story that follows Negasi Zane as he moves to America with his mother and her new husband to a small town named Horseheads, New York. There, Negasi discovers that all residents flee the town when the neighborhood 'freaks' return from their peculiar boarding schools abroad. With an entire summer in a strange, foreign place ahead of him, Negasi has little choice but to befriend the same murder of teens whose mere presence is enough to scare away an entire town...

thinking about tarsus and the mirror universe, and wondering in what ways the events may or may not have differed between the two. how can an already nightmarish situation have been twisted even worse - and what kind of effect would that have on young james?

our jim likely came out of tarsus with an even deeper sense of compassion for his fellow man - kindness forged in fire. he’s been through such hardship and pain that all he wants to do is alleviate that in others - his idea of “let me help” perhaps being even more romantic than “i love you” being cultivated there

and what the mirror image of that must be. any sense of trust or heart mirror!kirk may have possessed as a child completely shattered - kindness quite literally starved away. he’s been through such hardship and pain, so why should everyone else get off easy?

Tarsus has those 'Cat like Reflexes.' Specifically, the one that makes him afraid of anything long that suddenly appears behind him and makes him think it's some kind of snake like threat.

Hi! Sorry if this is too specific, but seconding the novel question except what I'm looking for is:

1. Bones! Preferably NOT a straight Bones, at that, though any is good.

2. Uhura my beloved *heart eyes* Literally anything with her as protagonist.

3. Spock and his relationship with Vulcan. Also any trans, non-binary or gender non-conforming Spock.

4. Jim being KIND and NOT A DICK. Jim being a total nerd and a teacher's pet and a total softie because I love him he's my sunshine. But also, Jim and Tarsus. Getting "over" Tarsus, his relationship with the other survivors, struggling with food on his day to day life, and having a beautiful support network that has his back.

I already have Doctor's Order on my to-read list, and I absolutely get it if all of this is too specific, but. yeah.

Anyways thank you for running this blog!

1. the only books i can think of are doctor’s orders and the romulan way. i’ll be honest, i’m not a big spones shipper and i’m really not up to snuff on tos books where he may be not-so-straight. i’m sorry!

2. uhura’s song you’d probably like:

3. these books delve into vulcan lore and spock’s upbringing as a vulcan:

i’m not really sure on any trans, non-binary, or gender non-conforming spock books. now mind you, i may have read tos books where he was what you’re looking for but i cannot remember. maybe someone could offer some recs in the comments if they know of some?

4. these books offer a more in-depth experience of what happened on tarsus:

i have not read collision course but i remember looking up tos books where jim’s experience on tarsus was expanded upon a bit more and found collision course

also: here’s the covers of doctor’s orders and the romulan way which are the only two mccoy-centric books i can recall:

kirk and spock are my favorite characters so i will admit i gravitate more towards books where they are the main focus

Do you think part of the reason Sam is so resentful of Jim is because he was there on Tarsus IV and during the great divide Kodos decided Jim was worth saving but he wasn’t, but the reason jim is a witness and not sam is because Jim told them he was Sam and took his place so now Sam has both inadequacy issues and survivors guilt (and daddy issues because of all the attention it brought jim later)?

I've seen a few post floating around so I'm wondering what the general consensus is

[cdr2002]

I love Mirror Kirk tarsus headcanons give them to me it’s fascinating to think about what happened differently

[jim-kirk-headcanons]

(tw tarsus IV)

when jim was evacuated from tarsus IV a little after his fourteenth birthday, he was in a bad way. malnourished, traumatised, scared. for months after while he recovered, he would hide away from the world, and didn’t really know how to talk about what he’d experienced despite having regular therapy sessions and good support. in the first few weeks he would hide underneath weighted blankets because the pressure made him feel safe, and even now it’s still a habit - whenever he’s upset or dysregulated he’ll want pressure around his body to try and regain that sense of safety

Think I should suggest that this company buy ad time on new episodes of Strange New Worlds?

...or TOS reruns?

HT to Exx for the original picture

A Brief break from Goretober because I've been listening to a lot of MLP Creepypastas so I gotta make my OWN horror Horse.

His name is Perfect Pin; he's a monster, in his own way. He has a fascination with preserving and mounting specimens-as his ass tattoo has decreeded. But he's moved on from simply bugs and small animals. He's moved on to Pegasi because he thinks their biology is nifty and should be preserved for future viewing. His day job is a entomologist at a collage, managing their archives. It helps fund the rent on his very special house with it's very special gallery basement situation he has.

The Changling is his partner in crime. His name is Tarsus. Tarsus is one of the royal grubs from the previous Hive. Which means he emerged first, literally ate the competition and the second he pupated with legs he had the choice-fight the Alpha Queen or get the fuck out. The latter was chosen. He met Perfect Pin and they've had a nauseating symbiosis ever since. While Perfect Pin kidnaps people and begins the long process to preserve them and pin them to his gallery wall-Tarsus acts as the middle man, taking disguise of a 'poor victim like them who has to work under Perfect Pin and doesn't want to do this or else he'll get hurtings again' and then feeding off the essentially Stockholm feelings of people thinking he's one of them and worthy of trust and comradery. Then he goes up stairs, kicks back and watches 12 hours of trash T.V. after such a filling meal from a 20 minute interaction.

He is also Perfect Pin's literal partner. Are they gonna make a fucked up colony together? Maybe. Are they gonna keep sticking people on to a wall and preserving them like insane taxidermists? Absolutely. Will they get found out? Can't get caught if the cops can't find a body.

Paul the Apostle

Paul was a follower of Jesus Christ who famously converted to Christianity on the road to Damascus after persecuting the very followers of the community that he joined. However, as we will see, Paul is better described as one of the founders of the religion rather than a convert to it. Scholars attribute seven books of the New Testament to Paul; he was an influential teacher and a missionary to much of Asia Minor and present-day Greece.

So I've obviously read ff stories about Tarsus IV and I've read stories of Jim having an eating disorder of some sort as a plot point but what I'd be really curious about is how he would handle being around someone with an ED. Someone who eats a lot and vomits or someone who doesn't eat at all.

I know someone could argue EDs can be easily treating in the future ST world but assuming that's not a thing.

Just my hyper fixation of the day.
