watching Star Trek : The Paradise Syndrome yet again and Holy Fuck HOW DID THIS AIR? I AM SO CONFUSED AT EVERY TURN AND IVE SEEN THIS AT LEAST FIVE TIMES.
First of all, that mind meld scene with Kirk and Spock was HEATED
if someone walked in on me watching TV, I'd rather a sex scene be playing, that would be less intimate and embarrassing. Holy FUCK. I'm not even being the spirk shipper that I am when I say that, I'm being objective (if you don't believe me: GO WATCH IT ON YOUTUBE AND DONT TELL ME YOU DONT GET WHAT IM SAYING)
also:
"is she gonna make it?"
"no Jim, she had some pretty bad internal injuries"
SHE WAS HIT BY THREE MEDIUM SIZED ROCKS. THEY MOSTLY HIT HER LEGS AND ONE TO THE CHEST.
I do love this episode tho- I know I'm screaming at the moment but I do love the Spock bits. Spock having to act as Captain and feeling so so SO guilty. And I love getting different angles to Spock's room. Basically the great parts were Bones and Spock lol. And Bones eventually telling Spock that he shouldn't feel guilty, that Kirk would have done the same thing,
script
AND SPOCK CANONICALLY LOSING SLEEP AND NOT EATING BECAUSE HE NEEDS TO TRANSLATE THE WRITING AND HE FEELS SO GUILTY. THATS MY VULCAN BOY.
also, (and I don't know how canon these off handed comments are), but Bones describes Spock's blood as "that green ice water you call blood." Are Vulcan's cold blooded???? do we ever know for sure??? cus I SWEAR I've heard Bones call them hot blooded before too, so we can never really know lmao.

5 OTPs ❤️🥰
Thank you so much for the tag @laireshi! I may have been tagged by some other folks when this first went around, sorry if I missed it :’) all I remember is @hils79 Jack / Norrington and how it changed me lol
In no particular order:
1. DMBJ - PingXie (though fuck Iron Threesome sure is close to eking PingXie alone out 😳)
It’s about the yearning
It’s about love that consumes you whole, and about love you have to learn to live within and without
It’s about me crying on my floor at 3 AM
2. The Uncanny Counter - SoShin
This is all @humanlighthouse’s fault and now they won’t leave me alone wtf
Shin Hyeok-u and his wall kink; So Mun and his willingness to throw Hyeok-u into walls
I NEVER ship bully / bullied but fuck if Gay Red isn’t broken in all the right ways you know
It’s about growth and processing trauma and learning to love the best and worst versions of yourself and of your partner
3. The Imperial Coroner - Main Quad Polycule (Prince An / Chuchu / Leng Yue / Jing Yi)
Ok I haven’t finished the show so I didn’t want to get too into the gifs in case of spoilers BUT this is the polycule that KEEPS! ON! GIVING!
The straight couples are cute but each of them also has SO MUCH CHEMISTRY with their same gender counterpart it’s insane (those are the gifs I’m including but THEY ALL LOVE EACH OTHER)
Chuchu basically sees all of them and spends the entire show rhapsodizing about how hot they are, canonically, out loud, in words
@ponnearponfarponwhereveryouare made a chart and it made me so happy
4. Maiden Holmes - Prince Qi / Su Cu
One of the few main hetero pairings I am super invested in
Though tbh they have bi4bi energy so…
They just love each other so much and also believe in each other so much??? And really communicate their needs and expectations?
I’m love them
5. Spirk
Can’t forget my Star Trek roots bbs!!!!
Husbands! In space!
Unmovable object meets unstoppable force, and then they bang
Also look at this slow shoulder caress wtf
I’ll tag (and apologies if you’ve already been tagged, i have no working memory lol!): @lesbianspacedad, @ponnearponfarponwhereveryouare, @epicwalrus, @xiaobaibai, @humanlighthouse, @s1utspeare, @vishcount, @xcziel, @psychic-waffles, @undyingsunshine, @mejomonster, @gaiahenshin, @amidalogicdive

reasons as to why this is a perfect spirk moment:
spock's immediate concern for jim even though smacking people is a routine thing for him
the hand touching
jim walking towards spock as if expecting to be coddled by him
them having the time for a warm moment despite the impending chaos surrounding them
S01E20 - Tomorrow is Yesterday

This one scene in The Wrath of Khan
Jim: Oh, by the way, thank you for this
Spock: I know of your fondness for antiques
Jim: It was the best of times; it was the worst of times...
Jim: Message, Spock?
Spock: None that I am conscious of... except of course, happy birthday
