#creating the most horrifying weapon known to man ttyl

[merrysithmas]

tbh i am so thrilled w the narrative implications rising in snw because they decided to explore the portion of kirk's life where he is in a situationship with a partner who essentially becomes the Star Trek equivalent of the scientist who created the A-bomb (Genesis project).

like i wanna see Jim Kirk tied up in situationship with a woman who once dazzled and bewitched him with her unparalleled genius but becomes victim to her ambition, going down the path of the mad scientist, driven deeply into alienation by the ferocious belief in the veracity of her work

and jim, ambitious in his own right, faced with the morally alarming nature of unchecked desire

not only can jim not follow this path himself, but he fears/dislikes the idea of fatherhood and has devoted his soul to another path entirely - with this being unexpected. whereas with carol, who is obsessed with Creation and her own work would "want David in my world" as she stated in the later movies.

love me a good Watching Love Decay Into A Descent To The Horrors story

mmmm some good fcking food🍿
