Live long and prosper, Tiger. - Mr Spock

I’m a doctor not a wordsmith but even if you ate an apple a day, it couldn’t keep me from visiting you the next time I’m on Earth. - Doctor McCoy

Happy Birthday @tigereyes45

Guys, my fic for the @mcspirkevents Big Bang is just about ready to go and I can’t WAIT for you guys to get to read it. It’s almost 22k, a silly little romcom with old married mcspirk. I hated it for a lot of the writing process but rereading it today I’m actually pretty pleased with how it all turned out!

Mine goes up on Friday, but I think there’s at least one that goes up before mine, and lots to come after! If you’re a McSpirk fan make sure you’re following @mcspirkevents to keep up with all of them—it’s going to be a feast of McSpirk!

[affixjoy]

Jim’s face!!!! All of their faces really but ESPECIALLY Jim’s 😍😍

Can't remember if I shared this little sketch I made for some sweethearts in need of dopamine in the mcspirk server <3

[twinkboimler]

my fic for the Mcspirk Big Bang is finally here! This thing ended up being around 60k words long and I cannot believe I got it done! AOS, Academy Era, Meet Cute and Meet Ugly - it's got all the shenanigans you'd expect from these three dorks. PLUS Spock keeps pigeons. Need I say more?

I was absolutely blessed to have my buddy Nic @pityroadart /@existentialcrisistime as my artist, and he created some absolutely stunning paintings for this fic (such as this post's beautiful header). His skill is absolutely unmatched and I am just so lucky to have been paired with him.

SUMMARY

Summer just started, and Jim is bored out of his mind. The courses he needs to take aren’t being offered until the second half of the summer, so he has an entire month to bother his roommate Bones. At Bones’ suggestion to get a job, Jim fixes up a motorbike and starts making deliveries to people in town, including a cute Vulcan professor named Spock. But when Jim is beaten up while making a delivery, it’s Spock who delivers Jim back to the apartment he shares with Bones. After the meet-cute from hell, Spock and Bones start dating… and so do Jim and Spock. With neither roommate aware they’re both dating the same man, there’s only so long that things can go well for them before the other shoe finally drops.

Thanks a ton to @mcspirkevents for running this event and @affixjoy and @ncc1701ohno for betaing this behemoth. This is the longest thing I've written for Star Trek, and there's no way I would have caught everything on my own. Shout out also to all the cool people in the Mcspirk Events discord server, love you guys!

Hey, for the WIP ask, 🤔

I’d love to hear abt what kinds of ideas you’ve got kicking around up there

Thank you for sending an ask! Right now all my thoughts are on star trek haha.

🤔- What’s a story you’d love to write but haven’t even started yet?

Here's a few:

Mcspirk loses their memories, and yet still want to protect each other from danger. They have no idea why.

McCoy returning to his room late, and finding a sleeping Jim, and Spock there. He goes about the room, tidying/preparing for the morning before joining them to rest.

Scotty assumed Mcspirk have been together for years, so when he apologizes for interrupting what he thinks is an anniversary celebration, he's shocked to find out that they are not in fact, together. Nor have they ever been.

A fic where one by one my favorite Enterprise ships get together. First Chulu, then Mcspirk, and lastly Uhotty (because let's be honest Scotty would just assume Uhura's flirting is nothing).

A multi-chap fic that highlights Chekov's relationship with each of the triumvirate, as he grows into a starfleet officer (and maybe him reacting to each of their deaths).

A series of vignettes that highlight McCoy's relationship with his daughter Joanna.

Plus many many others. I usually post my random ideas in the Mcspirk Events Discord, where server law often leads to me writing them out.

[very-bad-poetry-captain]

I heard that there’s a mcspirk discord 👀? What do I have to do to get in because I’m currently making every discord I’m in a mcspirk discord through the sheer force of my worm-eaten brain

That sounds like you're doing those discords a favor tbh

I think this link should work if not send me a message and we'll figure it out! You only have to be slightly weird about them and most importantly believe that McCoy is vital for survival. Welcome! 🖖

I just started watching Star Trek tos when I got sick last week and ship mcspirk so hard, sad I missed voting in the poll by one day but!! I'm so glad to find out there's still Star Trek mcspirk shippers out there. I thought I was too late.

There are lots of Mspirk shippers out there! Honestly when I first started watching Star Trek, I began with Wrath of Khan and the Mcspirk bit me so bad. I was sad to see there weren't many active events going on for them. I mean you had the @sttermsofservice zine (go check it out), but that was for any combination of the three characters and not just Mcspirk alone.

When I hosted the week and I saw other people actually really love this ship I knew I'd have to host more events. My hope is that people continue to enjoy the characters, the ship, and have fun with these events!

If you would like to chat with other shippers feel free to join the discord here:

You're not too late anon, and we're happy to have you aboard the USS McSpirk!

[strangenewwords]

Hi! So everything you write is simply perfect, thanks for sharing such great content and please! don't ever stop, your Butchie (? is that what we call it?) and Mckirk writing is like air to my lungs

Oh my GOODNESS You have so so so so made my day. I will strive to provide. I’m a little (and by that i mean a lot) thrilled with your skills as well. Soo.

also, hey, not to like recruit or anything but if you like discord you should check out our McSpirk Event discord. A lot of us there are feral about mckirk. Or Spirk. Or Spones. And to a smaller amount butchie 🤣

[starrylol]

Join the mcspirk discord!!

Talking on the KiScon discord server and no one had a Star Trek event calendar. So I made one. If anything is missing, I’m happy to add it. Just drop me a line.

[boldlyqueertastic]

Bones deserves all the love. He cares so much and does so much to care for others, for the crew, for his boyfriends that Jim and Spock insist they get to dote on him too. And sometimes that comes in the form of his space boyfriends magically turning his Starfleet uniform into a princess dress so he can feel pretty as a treat after a long shift.

As we inch closer to the US election* and the creeping dread threatens to overtake us, let’s celebrate our own creativity and hard work.

(*insert whatever Horror is affecting you. I know the list is long and unrelenting worldwide)

I want to know about your favorite thing you made in 2024. Art, writing, blog post, meme, whatever. Whatever makes your heart swell and you say to yourself yes I did that (positive) I want to hear about it.

What is the thing?

What inspired the thing?

What was your process for making the thing?

What part of it are you most proud of?

Anything else you want to say?

I want to read you ramble, this is a time to be self indulgent!

I’ll go first:

What is the thing?

I’ve set myself up with an impossible question. The thing I’m most proud of is that I wrote SO DAMN MUCH this year. I think, including original stuff, I’ve passed 200k, which feels like a huge accomplishment.

Picking one thing though, I think I have to go with The Sum of All Our Accomplishments that @spongynova illustrated. (Star Trek TOS, rated E, Spock/Kirk with some friends with benefits McCoy on the side)

What inspired the thing?

This fic was part of the Shore Leave Th’y’la Reverse Bang, so the main inspiration was Spongy’s art! Once we were paired I spent a day driving around thinking about the art and what I wanted to do with it, and I caught on the idea of the way memories seem to layer and come forward when you go to the same place over and over again. During that brainstorming time I went to the beach for a few days in the town I’ve been going on vacation at since I was born, and the way memories wrap around you in a place like that is beautiful and intense and sometimes a little bittersweet. I feel like I did a pretty good job of capturing that feeling!

In a less tangible way, the boomdeahda song was also a big inspiration.

What was your process for making the thing?

Interestingly, I struggled A LOT writing this. I kept feeling like I couldn’t get it where I wanted it to be, and it felt like wrestling a bear for most of the writing process. I think I complained a lot on the McSpirk server.

This was the first year I ever tried to participate in fandom events, and I have mixed feelings about how that went. I’ve loved meeting people and collaborating with artists like Spongy! Some of my best work came from events and me forcing myself to finish things for them! But also, it took away time from things I really wanted to write especially original stuff. Next year my goal is to have a better balance.

What part of it are you most proud of?

I really love how I wrote Bones as their friend with benefits here. I love all flavors of the three of them together, but this is closest to what I see as my favorite. He loves them, they love him, but it isn’t a soulmate/romantic love in the same way Spirk is. He’s got his own stuff going on outside of them. I love how I wrote their first time together here, and I’m really proud of it!

Anything else?

This part isn’t me bragging so much as fawning over Spongy’s art again. Like WOW go look at it! Even if you don’t want to read the fic the art is just so vibrant and beautiful.

Tag some people!

@spongynova @ncc1701ohno @strangenewwords @tigereyes45 @twinkboimler @eternally-intermittent @calliecat93 @purpleenma @starrylol @celestialvoyeur

Join in, distract me from The Horrors by bragging about your creative work!

[strangenewwords]

Not to like spam or anything, but if you wanna talk at/with a lot of people about TOS, you can check out McSpirk Events Discord. We don't actually care who or if you ship. We just really stupidly insanely love the show. And the books. And the Guys.

Plus we really really really really love Bones.

How's the ToS fandom in 2024? Still exist? Can I join you because I'm having feelings

[oddthesungod]

Jim and co. have to attend a formal event on Earth, and Bones having had enough of the stuffy types decides to ditch the party when he hears the estate has a paddock with horses, and hey he’s always had a soft spot for horses.

Which in turn attracts a gaggle of smitten Vulcans 😉

(Plus Spock and Jim of course 💖)

Also…. If this scene seems familiar, its because yes it is LMFAO (also eternal thanks 4 the mcspirk discord server 4 the idea hoho 👀)

“can you feel me” by USS Queertastic

Bones has been dropping hints at Jim for years. He knew Jim reciprocated. But, it was time for more drastic action. And, to enlist Spock to get the message across.

A Spones to McSpirk reimagining of this infamous scene with Karl Urban from The Loft.
