Do you ever feel the random urge to reconnect with someone after being not in contact for a while? The reason for the gap may be natural causes, like your busy schedules and theirs. But when you think back, it's been about ten years without contact. And if you were to tell your younger self that you guys are no longer in contact, they might kick you in your face because that's how close you were?

And then suddenly you feel the longing to close the gap, but you don't know how because ten years is a long time and a lot could've happened within those years. They could've met someone who got their vibe and they could've also forgotten that you were a minor character in their story as well.

Thought 6

Cats dream right? Like they must do, we have evidence of it...kinda. But the age old question for Dogs is always what do they dream about? We have an answer, Dogs typically dream of their owner (s).

Cats on the other hand? No idea, there's not truly much we know about cat brains and how they dream. Any ideas?

I accidentally ran into one piece of fanfic some while ago (forgive me if I forget what one: it was, as I say, an accident...) that dealt with this issue by essentially turning it into a throwaway of no great importance.

In which one character (again, don't ask me which) says to the other, in essence, "Look, Starfleet's not stupid. They know exactly what's going on." [The implication being that if there was any problem with it—some issue that caused people fear that Kirk and Spock would prioritize themselves above their crew—someone would long before have reported this. But what has been happening, canonically, is the exact opposite. And these two know it.]

"...So I suggest we go on exactly as we have been doing. On the Bridge, and everyplace else that's not your quarters or mine, we do exactly what we know needs to be done to keep our ship safe. And behind our own closed doors... we do what we've been doing all along."

This approach struck me as eminently sensible. In the next movie, or series, or whatever, simply establish the relationship as a fait accompli and make it plain that we're never going to find out the details. Because the details don't matter, and would be anticlimactic at best.

(shrug) YYMV.

I actually do wish Spirk was canon, but I want it to be entirely off-screen and just mentioned by other characters as a matter of fact. Like 'hey, did you know Starfleet only ever made one exception to their fraternization policy, and that was to allow Spock to serve under Kirk when they got married?' Or maybe there's a planet that's populated by Vulcan-Terran hybrids and everyone knows that it was founded by those two because the conditions were good for both species. No, Kirk wasn't the youngest captain in Starfleet, the record was actually beaten by his daughter Saavik two decades later. People say she struggled to live up to her parents' fame, poor thing. A hundred years later Kirk and Spock's messages to each other are published in two tomes. The High Council deems them so inappropriate that they're banned on Vulcan, et cetera.

Any depiction of Spirk on screen would be inherently disappointing because it's straight up impossible to live up to sixty years of fan-made content. The only way to make it good is to incorporate it into the lore and arouse even MORE speculation and fan-made content.

Feel free to disagree, though...if you could make Spirk canon, how would you do it?

When Mabel comes out to Stan, she’s really scared that he’s going to reject her and have an issue with it, so she’s emotional and asks him if he still loves and supports her and he’s just like “??? Kid I’ve been telling you all summer I’m one of the LBTGs” and then it’s her turn to be like “wait what??” because she thinks he had never mentioned a sexuality before, and it turns out Stan had been constantly telling the kids that he’s “ambidextrous” because he thought it meant the same thing as bisexual.

It is called adulting, when the whole neighborhood is celebrating Christmas but you are complaining about the loud noises and bright lights with an impending headache and potential cold.

Eddie is sitting at the diner, about to eat a well-deserved breakfast after a night of rocking and rolling when the most beautiful man he has ever seen slides into the booth across from him like, “About Dustin.”

Who is Dustin?

Eddie doesn’t know but he lets this pretty boy talk and talk and talk until - “Wait, are you doing a job interview for someone else?”

“N-no,” Pretty Boy - Steve, he’s wearing a name tag on his work vest - says, taken back. “No, I’m like. His hype man.”

“You called him an asshole.”

“He is an asshole, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t hire him. The kid is a genius.”

“That brings me to my next question,” Eddie grins. “Who is Dustin? What’s he interviewing for? Does he know anything about sound equipment? Did you really think this was a good idea? And are you single?”

Steve just blinks at him, all nice and dazed and slow. Eddie has concluded that he will fall in love with this guy when Steve says, “You’re not the interview guy?”

A minute later, a kid in a hat walks in, sees them, and then rolls his eyes as he sits down across from a stiff man in a suit.

Steve mutters, “Asshole.”

My favorite animal is people who thought destiel was a made up ship that was born out of fans stretching canon too much and overall exaggerating then watch the show and realize... that from the very beginning that shit is gay
