It's canon that Spock likes to fuck with people and pretend he doesn't know human sayings just so he can make people explain it to him.

And then Kirk just knows when Spock is serious or is just being difficult and obtuse on purpose. They're married your honour.

Say what you want but censure actually created such a multifaceted deeply repressed queer characters that now, almost 60 year later I'm standing beneath the spirk and as a profound psychologist and detective I'm trying to solve the impossible case - make me spock and captain kirk kiss in a way that is completely in character and goes along with canon

#if you say they kiss all the time you're right #but also not #they're stupid and at the same time they understand perfectly clear what's going on #god they're difficult af #but I love them for that #star trek #star trek tos #tos #kirk #james kirk #spock #mr spock #spirk

I think every main Vulcan should have gotten a different instrument that they played and that T'Pol should have gotten a guitar. She should have shredded.

#Spock has the lute obviously - first come first serve #for Tuvok......harp #I just think it'd be funny for her to pull out a guitar and start absolutely KILLING it for a talent show or something #star trek #and then there could be a scene where she learns some human song Trip likes and plays it #and it's difficult so there's some plausible deniability where shes like 'I undertook it purely for the challenge' and he's like 'sure'

Captain Pike's Starfleet away team outfit to Rigel VII

"[The costumes] were beautiful. You just felt like fighting when you put them on, and you felt secure. I really, really liked those things. They brought another essence of the culture on that planet, as all fashion does." - Anson Mount, The Ready Room interview, July 6 2023

I'm so attatched to the later-season DS9 uniforms it's crazy. The early ones are so colorful and fun but the grey ones....the grey ones 🫶

"If you two continue purring so loud like a couple of old amorous lizards you won't be able to understand what's going on on the screen. I did say that this series is too complex for your poor reptilian brains, that you get distracted so often".

UPD: Now with Kukalaka!

Spocktober + Trektober Day 14 - Historical AU

Yeehaw, baby!

(ID under cut)

[Image ID: A black and white drawing of Jim Kirk, Spock, and Doctor McCoy from Star Trek: The Original Series.

They are sitting atop a stagecoach. Spock and Jim are sitting on the front bench. Jim has the reins in his hands. McCoy is sprawled out in the back, head leaning on the railing, his feet (clad in cowboy boots) crossed over the railing on the other side. They are all dressed in western clothing with cowboy hats. Spock and Jim are wearing shirts and waistcoats; Spock's is buttoned up, Jim's waistcoat is unbuttoned and his shirt is hanging open to his collarbone. McCoy is also wearing an apron and has his shirtsleeves rolled up. His hat is jauntily placed over his face and he has a stem of straw sticking out from his mouth. Jim and Spock both have stars pinned to their chests that vaguely resemble the Starfleet chevron. Spock is wearing a bolo tie with the IDIC symbol on the pin.

Jim is saying, "Alright, listen, these Dodge City cops aren't likely to trust 'big city folks', so we're gonna have to blend."

Spock replies, "Which is why you're making us wear these absurd hats."

Jim: "...they're not that bad."

McCoy: "Yeah, they are."

Above the drawing is written "Trektober" and "Day 14 - Historical AU" Below it is written "@aerialworms" and "Spocktober"./End ID]

my ideal Kira and Julian dynamic is the dynamic between an older sister and a younger brother in a 90s teen movie. Julian is the annoying nerdy little brother and Kira is the teen older sister going "get out of my room you little dweeb" and shoving him into lockers

#star trek: ds9 #kira nerys #julian bashir #I respect the choice to keep their relationship to being friendly coworkers #but also I want them to be the kind of besties where people who dont know them think they hate each other #someone watching Kira grab Julian in a headlock: captain it must be so difficult when your crew dont get along #Sisko not even bothered by it: no thats just how they show affection #every time one of Kira's love interests makes her mad Julian is there like 'want me to kill them for you' #'im a doctor you know I could poison them and nobody would even know! because I would do the autopsy :)' #because it'll make Kira laugh #meanwhile if Garak makes Julian mad Julian has to stop Kira from threatening Garak with a gun #Kira: I think it'd be funny #Julian: youre going to give him a heart attack!! #Kira: exactly it'd be funny #I think about this a normal amount.

Cause of my inhaler I’ve been thinking more and more about the stress living on Vulcan would cause the Human body

And do you think the tri-ox compound can be used daily? Or do you think maybe Humans like Amanda who live on Vulcan had to have days where they hang out in like. an artificial biome that has the same oxygen levels as on earth?

Also do you think inhalers are still used or would tri-ox compound hypos be used in its place? And what if you have asthma and are on Vulcan?

#yes I’m a little bit devastated that it would be even more difficult for me to visit a fictional planet #I really need to have another appointment with my doctor about my inhaler #now that I’m more aware of what it feels like when I’m not actually getting air in my lungs #I’m now painfully aware that I need to use my inhaler every day #and I don’t think I’m supposed to use rescue inhalers every day? #eh that’s a problem for another day #star trek #humans #Vulcans #amanda grayson

Ten Books to Know Me

@aboxthecolourofheartache reblogged her version of this from ages ago but she'd tagged whoever saw it and it sounds very fun and difficult so let's do it!

Tris's Book by Tamora Pierce - I had a habit as a kid of always picking up the second book in a series, so this was the first of Tamora Pierce's books I read. Emelan had an effect on me on a microcosmic level, I'm pretty sure. Anyway, the protag of a whole world of mine is named Tris now, in homage to Trisana Chandler, so. the particulate is still kicking around in my brain.

Ptolemy's Gate by Jonathan Stroud - Another childhood FAVE. This series as a whole started fucking with what I understood a book to be. Also the ending of it has a vice grip on me to this day, and it is probably why so much of my writing is very vibey and favors ambiguous endings.

Cyrano de Bergerac - This was the first assigned reading I had in high school that I utterly LOVED. I love this play so much, I love the tragedy, I love the quiet sorrow. This was also the first proper tragedy that I remember really loving.

The Opposite of Loneliness by Marina Keegan - This is a book of poetry and short stories by a Yale creative writing student who was killed in a car crash very soon after graduating, compiled by her professor after her death. I read it repeatedly in college; it is really quite lovely.

Underland by Robert Macfarlane - Apologies to Box who wanted reading recommendations, but she is who introduced me to this book if I remember correctly, and I have spent the two years since I read it habitually picking up Macfarlane's writing without even realizing it. Absolutely phenomenal writing.

Staying with the Trouble by Donna Haraway - @ professor Haraway I know you are a semi-retired scholar and also in the most expensive college town on earth but are you looking for research assistants cuz uh

The Mushroom at the End of the World by Anna Tsing - I actually read both Staying with the Trouble and this book on the same weekend in the start of 2021. I compromised on not including Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake, which I felt was very cliche of me, by including this book, which had as much of an effect. Read those three and Pantheologies by Mary-Jane Rubenstein and you will have some semblance of an idea of what the spiritual portion of my brain looks like. In the interest of not writing the same blurb four times I left the latter two off but know they make up a little microcosm of 'you could make a religion out of this' for me.

The Cat Who Saved Books by Sosuke Natskukawa - A Japanese novel about a cat who appears to a teenager after the death of his grandfather, a bookseller. I read it when I was very frustrated with trying to read contemporary fiction and it was a bright spot among that. (I am still very frustrated with the state of contemporary fiction and this book remains a light.)

Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer - Okay I read this one most recently out of this list (over the summer) but it had been on my list for a long time and it really does live up to the hype because it is just so luminous in every sense.

Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer - I had to put this one last simply because HOLY HELL. Rewired my brain. This is the goal I aspire to, this is the dream I dream, this is the highest peak among the mountain range of writing aspirations that I climb. If I can one day write anything even akin to the Southern Reach trilogy I will be ready to die, but that is an utterly unachievable goal so God's just gonna have to let me live forever, I guess.

#this was SO difficult I'm ngl #I had several more that I agonized over #the fact that there is no le guin on this? insanity. but regardless #also there were some that I didn't include cuz I read them too recently and didn't want to go too hard with the recency bias but #if anyone has read both underland and braiding sweetgrass 'the language of trees' features both authors and is STUNNING #megs is reading #also everyone read the alan dean foster novelization of star trek (2009). that was the other one from my childhood that hit so hard
