For Jim
“We are all hostages to what we love. The only way to truly be free is to love nothing. And how meaningless would that be?” - Q (Picard S2E05)
Tumblr media
“There’s had been the touching of two minds which the old poets of Spock’s home planet had proclaimed as superior even to the wild physical love which affected Vulcans every seventh year during pon farr.” -- Jim Kirk (Star Trek TMP Novel)
Tumblr media
What a joke! Vejur was everything that Spock had ever dreamed of becoming. And yet Vejur was barren! It would never feel pain. Or joy. Or challenge. 
Spock laughed again. Then he saw Kirk’s face. He reached out weakly and found Kirk’s arm, then his hand, and took a startled Kirk’s hand in his own. “Jim,” Spock said.
McCoy looked his astonishment at the visible and unashamed emotion on Spock’s face as he clutched Kirk’s hand.
Kirk returned the pressure and brought his other hand to cover Spock’s, holding it between both of his, signaling Spock that there was no shame in either giving or in answering fully.
“This simple feeling . . . “ --- Spock struggled for strength --- “. . . is so far . . . beyond Vejur’s comprehension . . .” -- (Star Trek TMP Novel)
Tumblr media
With stunned understanding, Kirk stumbles to the door, sees Spock on his knees, hands blackened, face cracked with radiation lines and scars.
Spock shakes his head. With a feeble hand he reaches the intercom button: filtered communication.
Tumblr media
KIRK: Spock!
SPOCK: The ship -- out of danger?
KIRK: Yes --
Spock is satisfied; he fights for breath --
SPOCK: Don't grieve, Admiral -- it's logical: the good of the many outweighs --
He almost keels over. Kirk has tears streaming down his face.
KIRK: ... the good of the few...  
SPOCK: Or the one.
He props a hand on the glass to support himself. Kirk's hand reflexively goes to match Spock's on the other side of the glass --
Tumblr media
SPOCK: (continuing) I never took the Kobayashi Maru test -- until now. What do you think of my solution?
KIRK: Spock...!
SPOCK: I have been -- and always will be -- your friend... Live. Long. And. Prosper.
Spock falls. Bones and Scotty react.
KIRK: No...!
SAAVIK'S VOICE: (intercom) Admiral, you've got to see this! There's new life -- a whole new world, a Genesis world -- !
But Kirk is past hearing or caring. He is huddled up against the glass, destroyed. Bones looks on, helpless. -- (Star Trek: TWOK Script)
Tumblr media
KIRK: Even if there's a chance that Spock has an eternal soul . . . then it's my responsibility. MORROW: Yours? KIRK: As surely as if it were my very own. Give me back the Enterprise! With Scotty's help I could... MORROW: Out of the question, my friend! The Council has ordered that no one but the science team goes to Genesis! Jim, your life and your career stand for rationality, not intellectual chaos. Keep up this emotional behaviour and you'll lose everything. You'll destroy yourself! Do you understand me, Jim? KIRK: I hear you . . .I had to try. MORROW: Of course. (as Kirk leaves he is joined by Sulu and Chekov) SULU: The word, sir? KIRK: The word . . . is no. I am therefore going anyway. SULU: You can count on our help, sir. KIRK: Thank you, Mister Sulu. I'll need it. -- (Star Trek: TSFS Script)
Tumblr media
SAREK: He entrusted you with his very essence, with everything that was not of the body. He asked you to bring him to us . . . and bring that which he gave you, his katra, his living spirit. KIRK: Sir . . . your son meant more to me than you can know. I'd have given my life if it would have saved his.
SAREK: Forgive me. It is not here. I had assumed he mind-melded with you. It is the Vulcan way . . . when the body's end is near. KIRK: We were separated! He couldn't touch me. SAREK: I see. . . Then everything that he was . . . Everything that he knew . . . is lost. KIRK: Please wait! . . . He would have found a way! If there was that much at stake . . . Spock would have found a way! -- (Star Trek: TSFS Script)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Picard: You’ve brought him home, then?
Spock: Yes. I know it is illogical, and yet . . . he did the same for me. And at such a terrible cost. How could I not be equal to his sacrifice? . . . I have no regrets. -- (Spock Reflections: IDW Comics)

what hurts me about this moment even more is -if we’re assuming that is a kiss- that’s not a last kiss goodbye…
that’s a first kiss.
look at how hesitant jim is. he’s not sure how to position his fingers. that bitter sweet look in his eyes. ‘not like this’.

The Spectacles Paradox
Tumblr media
So, we know that Kirk is given glasses by Bones on his birthday at the beginning of Wrath of Khan.
And then in Voyage Home he sells them in the past, but in this exchange with Spock -
Spock: [Excuse me, Admiral. But weren't those a birthday gift from Dr. McCoy? Kirk: And they will be again, that's the beauty of it.
- it is implied that this is a closed loop, and it's all fine. (yes I know it's a paradox in itself but it's a loop so I'm giving it a pass)
HOWEVER:
Tumblr media
Kirk his given unbroken glasses by Bones (obviously), and then they get broken, meaning their first (second?) appearance in the past, at the antique shop, is with a broken lens.
Therefore, at some point, someone has fixed them before Bones gifts them to Jim.
But that means that different glass is being passed around the time loop.
Previously I'd imagined a time loop like this:
Tumblr media
But upon realising this, the actual lens' journey through time is more like:
Tumblr media
And my brain likes infinities not enclosed in loops FAR LESS
But anyway, here are my ramblings for the day. Enjoy? (I realise infinity signs and glasses look kind of similar no visual pun intended, or indeed confusion!)

When he gets older, James Kirk has to use reading glasses. This isn’t an unusual thing, eyesight is normally one of the first real casualties of age. But Jim doesn’t like to be seen with his glasses. He’s embarrassed of this visual sign of aging because he was Starfleet’s golden boy BECAUSE he was the youngest person to become captain at that time. Admiralty is another sign of aging and the passage of time that Jim resents.
Who is he when he’s not Starfleet’s poster child? Does he know? Did he ever figure it out? He seems like the kind of person who never expected to make it past 25 (which is fair considering what he went through). He spends all of Wrath of Khan with this fear of aging hanging over his head and then Spock dies and what does Jim say?
I feel young.

He's So Pretty 
Jim Kirk x Reader  CW: distress, angst, romance 
Kirk had no idea you felt the same way for him as he did for you, as you plan to leave Starfleet. Is it all too little too late for the two of you? 
Tumblr media
”*°•.˜”*°•. ˜”*°•. ˜”*°••°*”˜.•°*”˜.•°*”˜.•°*”˜
He felt dead inside, Kirk wouldn't show it but he couldn't stand the fact you were leaving and it hurt even more that he'd never gained the courage to be honest with you. His plan was to have a meeting with you as a farewell in his Captain's quarters before you left the enterprise when they docked in Yorktown to refuel in a few weeks. But he didn't know if he could wait that long, he'd been holding this in for so long it felt like it was begging to be let out. You were too good for him and he knew that his feelings were real because he hardly ever bit his tongue but he was terrified you wouldn't feel the same as him. The only person to ever get his tongue tied, the only person who he would always be looking for in a crowd, it was unexplainable how much he cared about you. But now... now you were leaving and fuck, he wished you knew everything going on in his head. 
"You're gonna kill yourself with guilt if you don't say something," Bones said in a matter of a fact way.
"I am aware, Bones." Jim grinned because he knew how dumb and high school it all was.
"Just tell the damn girl!" Bones exclaimed.
"Oooo. What girl is this!" Both the men jumped at the sound of your voice walking into the bar, they both went silent "Awh come on, is this a boys club conversation?" You put your hands on your hips and Kirk laughed. 
"Something like that, dumbass," Kirk looked up at you and you rolled your eyes before punching his arm.
"You love me really, no matter how many times you insult me. You're gonna miss me!" You reached over the bar and grabbed some vodka making yourself a quick mixed drink. 
"More than you know," Bones muttered so only Jim heard and gave him a look. 
"Right, drink up Cap!" You cheers' with Jim and then both downed what was in your glasses. 
"No cheers for the doctor I see," Bones rolled his eyes and you shook your head 
"Absolutely not letting you run free! I'm just pouring another drink my dear doctor." You poured a vodka shot and looked at Bones who was regretting speaking up. 
"Cheers to that I s'pose!" You and Bones clinked glasses before knocking your heads back. Kirk just looked at you in awe, his eyes looking up in adoration. Bones noticed it first and smiled to himself. 
"What's with the puppy eyes, Kirk?" You teased and Jim very slightly blushed. He thought he hid it well but you couldn't help but think about how pretty he looked. 
The following week, Kirk was mentally planning when to have that meeting with you, he had two weeks left till they docked. That wasn't that much pressure but he'd been holding in these feelings for nearly 6 years and didn't really know what to do if you didn't see him the same way. Kirk had absolutely no idea how you thought of him, he knew you were friends and maybe a bit flirty from time to time but nothing that couldn't be explained by being close friends. I mean Jim flirted with everyone, he was an Aries through and through so it didn't surprise him that regardless of gender he was going to be a bit playful. But with you, he had actual physical reactions and it was like being a teenager with a pathetic crush. You gave him butterflies, you made him nervous blush and hide his face and pretend he hadn't noticed your hand on his arm. 
Kirk couldn't help but believe you knew what you were doing but it seemed so unlikely because you were so confident, you were afraid to tell someone how you felt. Why would you keep your feelings towards him hidden if they were there? 
"Y/n, you've been asked to the Captain's quarters," Nyota told you with a friendly smile. 
"Oh lordy, what kind of going away malarkey has been prepared, I wonder." You grinned at your friend and she raised her eyebrow.
"Oi you, get that mind out of the gutter," you rolled your eyes. "I'm sure it's sweet , he's always been very thoughtful when someone leaves the ship." 
"Oh I'm sure it's very personal…" she winked and you covered your mouth so you didn't laugh. 
"What merriment have you two clowns got into then?" Bones asked as he walked past with some new equipment he'd been testing. 
"You have to be nice to me, Bones. Leaving orders say so," you narrowed your eyes at him, he stopped 
"Oh is that so, Sunshine?" He raised an eyebrow "And on whose authority is that?" 
"The Captains of course, I've been summoned to his quarters for what I can only hope is an attempt to celebrate my leaving without sounding too excited," you laughed and Bones said nothing. 
"Cat got your tongue?" Nyota asked Bones, folding her arms with a smile. 
"Oh not at all, I'm just holding it so I don't gossip like some old woman." Bones raised an eyebrow and you looked at him, puzzled. 
"Well what does that mean then?" You paused and he said nothing "Bones? What are you talking about?" 
"I mean if I can get in on some gossip where Bones is involved then I'm all ears." Nyota let one side of her mouth turn up. 
"You two are out for trouble, look it's not my secret to tell so you'll just have to find out eventually yourselves." Bones gave Nyota a knowing look and you looked between the two of them till Bones looked away. 
"Well what the hell was that?" You exclaimed looking at Nyota. 
"Well now I know you have to go and see Kirk right this second," Nyota leant against the corridor wall and had to put her hand over her mouth to stop herself from laughing. 
"You," you pointed at Nyota, "you are a troublemaker." You laughed and headed off in the direction of Kirk's quarters. 
You had no idea what Bones was on about but deep down you hoped. You'd been pining after Jim for so long it felt like an age, you had known each other for so long that you really didn't think there was any way Jim could've gone this long without revealing his feelings. You got drunk together so often and had never even kissed, he'd never revealed any secrets about his feelings whilst inebriated. Being realistic if Kirk hadn't revealed his feelings whilst being drunk it was unlikely he had those thoughts in his head, he was so easy to get secrets out of when drunk. But you couldn't help thinking about the weird interaction between the three of you a minute ago, what did they know that you didn't? 
You knocked three times of Jims door and held the sides of your skirt with your thumbs pressing against your fingers through the fabric. It was so damn frustrating how nervous you were when you could just be walking into a normal and civil meeting. Getting your hopes up was a dangerous activity especially when it came to heartbreakers like Jim Kirk. 
"Y/n!" Jim exclaimed, opening the door with a big smile, he stood back and let you step in. 
 "To what do I owe the pleasure." You looked around the room you'd been in often and considered that you might never see it again. 
"Come sit," he gestured to the sofa with a bottle of wine on the table and two glasses. "Your departure has made me think about a lot of things." As you sat down Jim began pouring. 
"What kind of things Kirk?" You narrowed your eyes. 
"It's hard to determine, I mean definitely thinking of the past" Kirk carried on for a while, talking in what you would call filler but you weren't listening. He looked so fucking pretty, his eyebrows moving every now and then, his hair a bit ruffled after he had got changed. Jim was so so pretty and you didn't know how to focus on anything else, watching his lips move you just wanted to shut him up and kiss him. 
"Y/n?" You snapped out of it "Do you know what I mean?" Kirk asked and you had to think for a moment about what would be a neutral reply so a question you hadn't heard any of. 
"....yes?" You said in a curious tone and Jim laughed. 
"You weren't listening were you," he smiled and you giggled. 
"Not my fault you look so pretty," you mumbled into your glass as you took a drink, you thought it was quiet enough but Jim had heard and he almost choked on the wine in his own mouth. 
"Was that a compliment I just heard?" Jim tried to play it cool but his voice cracked on the last word and you burst out laughing. 
"Okay well now you deserve no explanation if you can't even get through puberty properly." You smiled at him and he raised an eyebrow.
"Well I'm not the one who thinks I'm pretty, am I. Hmm?" Jim teased. 
"Well, I'M not the one who can't speak without sounding like a pre-teen." You shot back, jokingly narrowing your eyes at him. 
"You're a little shit, you know that?" Jim asked, placing his glass down. 
"Well you won't have to put up with it for too much longer will you," you joked and a silence fell between the both of you, joking like this had made Kirk forget about that fact "Are you okay, Kirk?" 
You looked deep into his eyes and it took all his willpower not to take your face in his hands and kiss you. Instead he stood up and walked around the room, hands on his hips he sighed. 
"Well now I know you're not alright," you paused and stood up, there was a distance between you both and you were slowly closing it down "What's wrong?" You asked at almost a whisper.
Kirk turned around and you were only a few steps away from him, his eyes were unreadable but looked deep into yours. He closed off the gap between the two of you and took you into a deep hug, you were caught off guard but didn't stop him. Instead you wrapped your arms around him just as tightly and leant your head on his shoulder. Closing your eyes the moment felt like forever and you didn't want to let go because it would mean you leaving him was something real. Kirk's hand went up to the back of your neck and slowly stroked your hair. The affectionate action could have made you cry if you weren't so determined to not reveal to him how you felt. 
"There's something I need to tell you, Y/n." Kirk said near your ear and you drew apart, still holding onto his arms
"What is it?" You looked into his eyes and tried to read them, glancing down at his lips you bit the inside of his cheek. 
"I've loved you ever since I've known you, Y/n. I can't help it and- and I've tried to show it but fuck, you won't let me. I can't think straight when you're around me and I've been pining after you for so long it doesn't even feel real that you're leaving now," Kirk's eyes held so much emotion you feared you might fall into them. How…how was this real? 
The silence had been considerable now and you didn't know what to do, your mouth slightly open and staring into his eyes. You couldn't find the words so you just hugged him again, closer than before. Jim held the back of your head, scared you'd slip away forever. You mumbled something against his shoulder and he perked up. 
"What was that?" He whispered and you turned your head to lay your cheek on his shoulder. 
"I can't believe this has happened, I- fuck. I wasn't expecting it," You whispered and it made Kirk so anxious that he just held you until you'd eventually slip away. 
"You can leave whenever you want," Kirk told you and you really did feel like you could but you didn't want to. Kirk may have been holding you but only because you allowed it to be so. 
"What if I don't want to?" You asked, slightly pulling away from his shoulder and looking into his eyes with a smile. 
"What?" Jim whispered, not believing what you were saying.
"What if I don't think what you're saying is crazy," you let your hands run down his arms till you were holding his hands "I don't know what you know about how I feel o-or how I…" you trailed off trying to find your words "But my feelings aren't so far from yours."
"You're making me fucking hope for something now," Kirk grinned. 
"Oh shut up, talk like the normal Jim, please. I'm not used to you being all soppy." You teased, leaning forward to kiss him on the cheek. 
"You mean say something like how fucking highschool this all is?" Jim gripped your hands before looking down at your lips and back to your eyes. 
"I mean I'm not surprised you come neatly packaged up with some drama." You raised an eyebrow and he just rolled his eyes. 
"Oh do shut up," he let go of your hands and put them on either side of your face before leaning forward and kissing you. 
You rested your hands on his forearms, leaning into the kiss as a warmth spread into your stomach. It was almost unbelievable that this morning neither of you knew how the other really felt and honestly you found it extremely endearing how honest Jim was. 
"All the planets, places and people to see but all I wanted was you," Jim whispered when you drew apart and leant your foreheads together. You smiled and looked at him, he looked so lovely, all happy and pink cheeked. 
"You're so pretty," you paused and he laughed "No I mean it, just so pretty." You trailed off and looked into his eyes, you could only imagine what they would look like in between your thighs…
"Someone's getting distracted by a thought, you've got that glazed over look." Jim narrowed his eyes. 
"Ohhhh, nothing…" you turned around and pulled his hand with you "Just how much prettier you'd look going down on me. You know, nothing that exciting." You sat down on the sofa and held your wine in your hand as you crossed your legs. Bringing the glass to your mouth you raised an eyebrow and Kirk ran his tongue along his top set of teeth, thinking. 
"I mean I can't say what it would look like from your point of view, but seeing you like that would be angelic," he walked towards you and knelt down Infront of you.
"Guess you'll just have to prove it won't you," You were teasing him now but Jim didn't seem to mind. 
Jim was running his hands up your thighs until he met the hem of your dress, moving his hands inwards till they met the crossover of your legs. 
"We could test your theory, you know, for research." He gave you a shit eating grin and you uncrossed your legs, leaning down to be face to face with him. 
"Come on then pretty boy, prove your worth to me." You whispered and he looked so damn excited he could burst, you always suspected Kirk had a submissive streak.

Thinking about why Spock hates Sam Kirk so much is so funny because it really just boils down to the guy being inconsiderate to the people around him. Spock wasn’t mad about dishes being left behind, he was mad that someone else, probably Spock himself, would have to pick up after Sam because he couldn’t be bothered to do it himself. It shows a general lack of respect for the people around you to not clean up after yourself.
And when Spock and Jim first meet, we see Sam did it again. He left his glass on the table and Spock picked it up.
It’s interesting because it doesn’t just show where Spock’s thoughts are, but Sam’s as well. He is literally too wrapped up in himself to bother thinking of how his actions affect those around him. And when he is sitting at the bar talking with Jim, then later demanding an apology from him, we see he does it with his words too. Exactly in the way Nurse Chapel does when she dismisses Spock’s feelings and desires for her own comfort.
They are incapable of looking passed their own nose but Spock isn’t, at least not visibly, angry towards Chapel for this reason. Because he’s taking it as a rejection of himself and not just a part of her personality.
It’s another parallel between Spock and Kirk that they are so nice and kindhearted that they end up constantly at the mercy of inconsiderate people who don’t even realize or care that they are hurting others.
