spock’s room decor is actually fucking bonkers. The weapons??? the big red velvet curtain??? like ok phantom of the opera go crazy.
for reference jim’s room has some photos and a plant so we can surmise this is uniquely a spock being a dramatic weirdo thing
#spock baby im sorry but it looks like the backdrop of one of those alpha male podcasts#nurse chapel is stronger then me because if i saw this frat boy ass decor i would have immediately gotten the ick and left#the lack of coherent design is so funny#ALSO CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW TO CURTAIN IS COVERING THE SHELVES WHICH IS SUCH A SMALL THING BUT IT MAKES ME SO MAD WHY SPOCK WHY#i hope bones never saw this room because he would have a fucking field day#star trek#star trek tos#spirk#jim kirk#spock#tos

i knwo a lot of people like the aos cadet and dress uniforms but i do Not and am actively trying to think up alternatives…… with tos kirk though lmao sorry
#anyways. tos kirk thiugh#ive never tried to draw this man younger until now. hm#star trek#captain kirk#james t kirk#also the into darkness grey ones theyre actually way worse than 2009#like if we’re gonna stick with modern/current common cuts why not at least do something a little more different with the paneling or#color blocking or whatever#theres a tiny bit of interest w the paneling but over all just looks like if you took a japanese school uniform and westernized it and#made it worse#the all red is fun though ill give it that#the grey ones from into darkness have absolutely nothing going for them though#anyways of course costuming will always depend on the time period that it is made. but it looks sooo 2010 i mean this in a bad way#also whatever fabric was chosen for ghe red ones pisses me off idk#anyways i dunno anything about fashion. im just drawing things

first kiss + hesitation + ‘not like this’
good omens s2e6 ‘every day’ // star trek: the wrath of khan
#‘not like this’ is different for each but also.#not like this. not now when it’s all over. why not before why now. how can i lose you before i’ve ever had you#not like this. don’t taint the memory. i’ve dreamt of this moment for years and years. never like this.#kind of the same#aziraphale is defiant jim is defeated#also#yes i hc the wok kiss as their first kiss yes i like angst#brought to you by jim and aziraphale making the exact same face after the kiss#but for completely different yet the same reasons#star trek#the wrath of khan#spirk#k/s#good omens#ineffable husbands#aziracrow#aziraphale#jim kirk#tumblr ate the quality#:///

sexy himbo jock interpretations of James Tiberius Kirk are silly and do a disservice to the character for a lot of reasons, not least of which is that it fundamentally ignores all the times in canon when Kirk is faced with a scientific discovery or oddity and you can see the effort it takes for him not to clap and skip with excitement. like in ‘the devil in the dark’ when Spock posits that they might be dealing with a silicon based life form and McCoy’s like “but that’s impossible!” and Kirk literally crosses the room to flirt talk excitedly with Spock about the prospect and how it could work! and what it would mean!
What I’m saying is, Kirk’s gotta be smart and a huge dork because how else could he pull a bad autistic bitch like Spock?
#see also:#in arena when the aliens let the enterprise watch Kirk’s fight with the Gorn on that fuckass asteroid#and Spock is like listing the elements present that Kirk could use to build a weapon or make an explosion or whatever#but Kirk can’t hear him! because he’s on a fuckass asteroid#but he still turns around and does exactly what Spock was describing because he’s ALSO SMART AND CAPABLE AND GOOD AT SCIENCE#and like! you just know Spock was like….barely containing his lust in that moment#like your bestie your life partner your other half is out there showing why you’re soooo drift compatible#while also being good at science (your favorite thing)???#I wouldn’t be normal about it either#(I’m very clearly not normal about it anyway)#like you know they’re excitedly sharing science journal articles in their free time because they’re dweebs!! they’re dorks!!#the greatest trick this show pulls off is making you think Kirk and Spock are opposites#when in fact their whole thing is ‘how differently can two people be raised and move through life and still be the epitome of#whatever souls are made of his and mine are the same’#I’m sorry I had a smarter more coherent Star Trek post I was trying to write but I’m not feeling coherent at all#so you get this instead#Star Trek#star trek tos#tos#I’m still in season one so no one correct me if they swerve super hard and never let Kirk be smart ever again after that#let me have this

okay maybe a hot take but like. people going "spirk is canon now omg!!!" after that short film that just dropped - you do realize that like. it's not any more canon than it has been for like, forever, right?
they held hands and watched the sunset together. big whoop.
yes vulcans have a whole hand-holding thing, but like. kirk and spock have held hands before, this is not? any different? than any of that???
like people are out here screaming "OMG SPIRK IS CANON AFTER 57 YEARS" guys if holding hands and staring into each other eyes while the music swells is good enough to call it "canon" then spirk has been canon since the motion picture came out in 1979.
#to be clear: it was fine!#but like. this didn't 'make spirk canon'#either it's already been canon for like FORTY YEARS#or it's not actually canon#either way this short film didn't change anything?#so i don't know why people are freaking out#spirk#star trek#not tagging the hate rn#the thing with 'canon' is that it has to be UNDENIABLE#gene roddenberry literally invented a word so that spock could call kirk his lover without actually saying 'lover'#KIRK LITERALLY ONCE SAID THAT TO NOT SAVE SPOCK WOULD COST HIM HIS *SOUL*#and that wasn't fucking canon enough for some people#so y'know.#this isn't gonna change the minds of anyone who will claim that kirk and spock aren't gay and gene never intended it#and the people who already think it was there and intentional ALREADY HAVE MOUNTAINS OF EVIDENCE#quite frankly they need to either physically kiss on the lips in a way that no one can construe as pressured/mind controlled#or literally say out loud 'we're in gay romantic love with each other'#and EVEN THEN there will be people who don't believe it or insist it doesn't count because gene's dead!!!

it probably is insane how much I wish I could express the thing about spones. the vibes about spones. Like there's the joking fun fandom vibes and I love them, I love to play with them, of course of course. but the THING. the CORE to me. i wish i could capture it and share it.
#like. the constancy. like the friction matters because it's hand in hand with the steadfastness you know? and it doesn't preclude tenderness#also climbing into the mind of the person you've been obsessed with understanding and being understood by.#and the fact that it's lifelong. and the teasing. and the fact that the growth is in the allowance of imperfections#allowing that imperfections exist in who you love allows you to love them allows you to love yourself#and i always love people knowing what you believe and bolstering it when you feel lost even when it's not their philosophy#(bones asking spock hope? isn't that a human failing? and him not allowing that#spock losing himself to emotion in all our yesterdays and bones reminding him how antithetical that is to him)#but even with all that seriousness - the TEASING. the plain fun. the constant reaching out regardless of their moods#the constant seeking each other out. the almost - given nature of the relationship.#it's not in some ways as dramatic as a Simple Feeling as the When I Think of You I Feel Shame.#it's bones growing into old age the human way one day at a time with spock#when people are like oh spock just put his katra in him because he was there - yeah. and he was always going to be the one who was there#this is why the earth moon sun metaphor works for the triumvirate so much better than sun moon stars imo#bones is the earth spock is the moon kirk is the sun#'the captain was indispensable'#the sun - a distant lifegiver to them and many others. they do revolve around it. have unique relationships to it#the earth revolutes the sun which brings it life. the moon has a face it only shows the sun#and the moon revolutes the earth. their gravity shapes each other. they reach out to each other. they formed in a collision outward#in some ways are entirely different but have the same stuff in them. spin the same.#idk it just makes so much sense for them all.#but even just getting back to them. again just the obsession with each others mind.#'i will never understand the medical mind' 'mathematically perfect brainwaves'#and then complimenting each other always so startlingly out of the blue with their own fields -#'you have a good bedside manner spock' 'perhaps if they had your ingenuity they would have'#the seeking each other's advice out even if it's just to argue with it lmao. the motif of their last words always going to each other#even wrath of khan - we know spock was talking to bones in his head. i do always wonder what was in their tsfs reunion scene#that shatner didn't want to happen.#I don't know and even this isn't the heart of it.#there's the families and the way they fit into each other's conception and value and weight of family#do i even tag this spones. this is just crazy rambling.

rewatching into darkness for the nth time and im sobbing at the fact that the first thing spock says when he sees kirk dying in the warp core is, “open it.” the thing he wants more than anything is to be close to him. to have nothing between them. but they’re separated. they cannot touch.
#ARGHHJHHJHHJJH biting and gnawing at things!!!!!!!#and the thing is.. scott knows. thats why he says 'the door's closed.' bc he knows all they want is to touch.#st#spirk#spock#ks#aos#also. chewing on differences btween this scene and the one in the wrath of khan#tos kirk says 'he'll die' if the door stays closed. but aos spock never says that bc he knows kirks death is a foregone conclusion#his knowing strips the 'open it' line down to nothing but the pure need to touch. to be with kirk#~~~

Bones (materializing during an away mission to see Kirk crumpled in a heap on the ground): My god, Jim, are you all right?
Kirk (miserably): No, Bones. I broke my spine.
Bones (rushing over in a panic): What happened?!?
Kirk (pulling a mangled old book out of his utility belt and crying): It was a FIRST EDITION from 1956!!
#star trek#star trek tos#star trek aos#jim kirk#leonard mccoy#mckirk#incorrect trek#incorrect star trek#incorrect trek quotes#incorrect star trek quotes#jim: now it'll never shelve properly#bones: screams#get it because he broke the book's spine#i don't know why he took a book on an away mission maybe there was going to be a lot of waiting involved#bones mccoy#captain kirk

I'm just saying, i sincerely doubt anybody in the crew of the enterprise (or any other starship) is completely sound emotionally and/or mentally. Not to sound like bones, but you gotta be a little messed up in the head to want to spend years in the dark of space, love for science and adventure or not
#that's why the crews are families#not all 400 of them ofc but they make their little groups and find at last a sense of belonging that they never had on earth#thanks for coming to my ted talk#star trek tos#star trek the original series#star trek#jim kirk#mr spock#bones mccoy#nyota uhura#hikaru sulu#pavel chekov#montgomery scott#found family

i think theyre incredibly silly !! but also from a character design/shape language perspective the triumvirate is so terrific i keep nerding out whenever someone makes them Shaped as god intended.
on the other hand my last midterms are tmr and i need something to keep me occupied after so by all means if yall have anything (if its tos spones mckirk or mcspirk rest assured that i WILL do it 100% bc im totally so sane abt then you see) youd like to see me scribble out in notes app feel free to send in an ask etc! ill do my best lmao
#spones#mckirk#star trek#leonard mccoy#spock#tos#star trek tos#triumvirate#is kirk shirtless or was i just too lazy to fill in his shirt?? youll never know ;)#but theres a reason why bones is Particularly inclined to be grumpy about it lmao#but also the one with the whales-era spones has my heart in a vice grip#god i have chem and math tomorrow wish me luck#did i study? NOPE#but i just love them so much your honor#jim kirk#HOW DID I FORGET HIM#cant believe this#its more of a tragedy than my grade in math
