super summed up version of kirk go .

born in riverside , iowa , kirk went from town rebel to the youngest known starfleet captain quicker than anyone had ever thought possible .

he’s the captain of the u.s.s. enterprise , finest starship in the galaxy , & he & his crew are on a five year space exploration mission to explore new frontiers . to “ boldly go where no man has gone before .”

his closest friends include his first officer , a vulcan known as mr. spock , & his cheif medical officer leonard mccoy ( nicknamed ‘bones’ by kirk ) .

this is genuinely all you need to know about star trek they are just exploring space my man .

jim’s father , an architect , was killed in a random attack when jim was no more than two years old . he hardly remembers the man but he still feels sentimental to him .

after his death , his mother had them both pack up & move to new york to stay with her parents for sometime until she they could get back on their feet . eventually she found a steady job & a fairly nice apartment & they settled in .

in school , kirk the class clown & rebel child who’d get girls giggling & waving at him before someone kid three times his side knocked him on his ass for being just too cocky .

though you didn’t expect it of him , jim was actually a certified genius too . his smarts , however , he found at embarrassing at first until he was sat down by a therapist his mother made him see out of worry .

something this man said to kirk , something about how he was wasting his life & talents & would get nowhere , enraged kirk enough to suddenly change most his ways .

his junior year of high school not only put him at the top of his class , his extra workload even had him graduating a year early . he got into an engineering program in the state & kept a solid 4.0 most his time . engineering didn’t end up working out but afterwards jim happily bounced majors just for the fun of it .

letting his smarts take over him allowed him to explore another side of him as he got into books & chess as hobbies rather than things he pretended to like in high school .

in college he was introduced med student castiel who drew him in with his stoic nature , dark hair , & serious gaze . something about kirk clearly intrigued him , too . enough that the two dated for somewhere around three years until , sadly , they mutually broke it off when balancing studies & a relationship was a bit too much . not to mention that , though they seemed to work well , it was always like they were looking for something , or someone , in the other that was never quite there .

during school , jim also found an interest in flying . introduced to it by a buddy looking to become a pilot , jim was fascinated by the idea of going to the skies . he kept to school , but learning to fly became a constant side hobby of his .

he eventually graduated school with enough credits to probably claim several degrees but left with one in early childhood education . he’s since taken up a position as a kindergarden teacher .

though not what he expected , jim loves working with kids . he adores his job even if he does often dream of his flying hobby sometimes .

after school jim also met steve . his first serious relationship since school , jim ended up falling for steve hard . he wasn’t looking for something that wasn’t there like with cas , it was just steve & he didn’t need anymore . he was more than happy ! & steve seemed to be as well . for three entire years . then jim met bucky . or , rather , saw steve around bucky . while steve had looked at jim lovingly plenty of times before , it was nothing like how he looked at bucky . it hurts to realize you’ve never been THE one after so long .

knowing what he had to do , jim concocted a lie to break up with steve . telling him he was developing feelings for someone else & a whole lot of “it’s not you , it’s me” . it hurt -- it hurt horribly -- but he knew , for steve to be truly happy , it was the right thing to do .

it’s been a year since his break up & jim has gone from happily taken to one of the most eligible bachelors in new york . he’s slept his way around manhattan by this point .
