#kirk x khan

[alestra18]

Looking for a Star Trek fic where I believe the enterprise is caught in a weird storm, or Jim is, either way Jim is sent back into the past when the Augments were in top power at the time. Khan finds Jim and somehow knows he has his blood in him. I believe it was on AO3. If anyone knows the name of it, I would be forever grateful!

I think about this a lot.

In Wrath of Khan, Spock gifts Kirk "A Tale of Two Cities" in an actual physical copy of the book [very vintage for the 23rd century].

THAT GOT ME THINKING-

How many times did Spock gift Kirk a physical book? Did he restlessly scour for hours trying to find an old copy of a book that he knew Kirk would adore?

I can only imagine Spock, a logical and very composed Vulcan, going slightly insane trying to find bound books just so he can see his captain light up with a smile as Spock gifts it to him.

Which- might I add- is an adorable picture to paint in one's head.

I told my AARP eligible dad who is such a huge Star Trek fan that he has met George Takei in person, has visited Riverside Iowa (future birthplace of Kirk), and has a Spock oven mitten that Spirk is canon he simply said an Owen Wilson style "Wow" like he had received the copyright to the Mona Lisa by the president while being given the Nobel Prize in every category

Star Trek TOS, according to my 15 y/o sister:

Listening to this cover of Mirrors by Boyce Avenue ft. Fifth Harmony and they hit me with the "just put your hand on the glass, I'm here trying to pull you through; you've just got to be strong.

I don't want to lose you now, I'm looking right at the other half of me":

Send help.

Yeah, that one went on the playlist so quick.

Istg I will share this playlist someday.

Was looking through some memes and found these, and this was the first thing what came to my weird mind.

Spock believed that the most important thing to Jim was being the captain of the USS Enterprise, until he learned how he risked his career, his crew, lost his only son, and blew up the entire ship just to bring him home and have him. With him.

Kahn's revenge

Just another day of feeling normal about this scene. (I’m lying.)

I actually liked this one less than the first one, even though it's much more popular. I also felt like they had a lot less budget than for the one before.

one of the things I really liked though, was that dr marcus was not a love interest and kirk even left saavik alone. I really love this new version of kirk (even though canonically he would've been with this antonia woman from generations at that time). it's almost as if one particular relationship made him rethink things…

there were some quite nice spirk-y scenes in the sense that they were very flirty the whole time imo, but in general not a lot of scenes between spock and kirk alone. but here are a few that were definitely something: spock giving kirk his birthday present and "it was the best of times, it was the worst of times - message, spock?". insert kirk smirk here. then in spocks quarters, his throaty "jim" that I cannot see in a friendship way since the turbolift scene in and the children shall lead anymore (even though it was much less throaty this time) and then saying "I have been and always shall be yours". and in both these scenes spock implicates that he regrets kirk took the promotion and went back to earth, which is also the reason they are not spending time together anymore. this can be interpreted as friends, but it wouldn't be me if I didn't see it in a different light. to me, they seem like two people who have broken up amicably a while ago (as opposed to the motion picture where they seemed like they had had a messy breakup). like they were just in different places in their lives but still don't want to close that door for good. spock also seems pretty open with his emotions in their private moments in this movie. and you know we love lowkey smirking spock :)) later spock's "be safe captain" - "yes WE will make sure to be safe". and of course kirk kicking several lower deckers away to get to dying spock. so in the end, there was quite a bit!

only the death scene was a bit lackluster to me. I know people love this scene, but somehow it didn't touch me like I thought it would. it felt like the actors knew spock was gonna return in the next movie and it was not too well written imo. it also makes no sense to me why saavik (a vulcan!) cried at spocks funeral but everyone else was pretty ok. I mean kirk choked back a few tears but in general his reaction was pretty tame. it would've been more kirk like (and to my liking) to smash everything. you know, like he did almost every time he lost a random woman he had just met... in general, I didn't fully understand why spock was sacrificing himself in the first place, in the sense that I have no idea what he actually did in the chamber.

to end on a positive note though, I enjoyed the concept as well as some scenes, to me it just could've been better executed as a whole.
