out of touch jim kirk thursday
You ever think about how in the Galaxy Quest universe there are tens of thousands of fics shipping Tim Allen and Alan Rickman in the place of Kirk and Spock?
Okay but Down Bad is Spirk
but from Spock's perspective

Realizing that Amok Time, from T'Pring's perspective, is basically the equivalent of a Vulcan Hallmark Movie, where a holiday (Pon Farr) makes our hero realize she wants hometown boy Stonn and a simple (Vulcan) life instead of big-city (space) boyfriend Spock, and it all comes to a head in an embarrassing misunderstanding in front of her family, is certainly making me feel some kind of way
It's on a double bill with "The Wrath of Khanukkah"

to this day I can't understand why they're called the Three Musketeers if there's FOUR of them? Did Dumas just forget his own main character???

After months of taking care of everyone else on this giant tin can I really earned this shore leave. Now I get to drink, relax, flirt with some lovely ladies and sleep until noon 😎 Just what the the doctor ordered!

Despite being among humans for close to a decade, I still find their tendency to overcomplicate and avoid aspects of social situations to be confusing at best and infuriating at worst. So much time is wasted on tedious matters such as who gets to 'make the first move' or 'not come off too strong'.
For example, everyone aboard my vessel is keenly aware of Lt. Uhura and Engineer Scott's 'budding romance'. But their need to extend their oddly avoidant courtship ritual, rather than outright state their interest in one another, is pointless, as well as frustrating to witness.
Why do they do this? Why not 'get it over with', as they say?
I encourage answers from all cultures, human or otherwise.

PSA: If you visit Antares VII, stay clear of any yellow plants, their pollen can have some...inconvenient effects on the biology of humanoid peoples.
My XO and I suffered through troubling symptoms until it was almost too late. Thankfully, we figured out a cure in time.

I can only find info on the symptoms. What was the cure? 👀

Wow. Humans are openly advocating for our disappearance yet Klingons are the bad guys? I thought your federation stood for peace.

I know some species are very private, but you'd think they'd share the important stuff, esp when we should trust each other by now.
How are we supposed to enjoy my weekly dinners if you all don't tell me what to watch out for :/ This is the third time this happens to the same person and I had to get the answer why from our CMO

my fav scene in amok time
So
I finally had time to watch Hegemony
and you would not believe the sound I made when it fucking ended on TO BE CONTINUED
Like
THE NERVE!!!!
Leaving us hanging off that cliff for a YEAR? Possibly more??
Favourites of the Musical Episode
- Uhura starting all this by beaming Anything Goes at the zipper fold. Nyota, you fucking NERD
- Spock straight up not having a good time
- Number One and Kirk dancing through the hallways
- La’An trying very hard not to sing and running to her room to sing her gut-wrenching ballad in private 😭
- Pike’s general ????? reaction every time the singing happens
- The acapella rendition of the opening credits theme
- Chapel getting a sexy club number to say ‘lol sorry this proved much more than I can handle I’m gonna go dig up proto-surgical tools byeeeee’ I mean, it’s horrible, and it’s definitely going to fuck with his head that he took this risk and gave T’Pring very good reason to kal-i-fee him now but it’s also...relatable? Girl has serious wartime PTSD and attachment issues and was fine letting this crush just expire in its own time but got too impulsive and shit got too serious because, Vulcan, and she couldn’t ghost him while they were on the same ship.
- Spock’s dark, emo pop-rock realization that he should go kolinahr now
- Number One’s comforting confession song to La’An and it lifting them off their feet 🥺
- Uhura getting her own ballad in Engineering and that bit at the end where she belts and we get the full-view of the section with the lights was 😩👌 babygirl still needs therapy and an emotional support dog tho
- The solution to the singing problem being just more singing but a big cast number that overwhelms the zipper fold into combusting like New Years fireworks
- The fucking Klingons’ getting roped in at the last second to add their aggro rap-pop boyband tantrum to the cause!!!!
this episode was a 1701 out of 10 great job everyone
So, aside from making me grin like an idiot the entire time the musical episode did deliver some gut-punches still
like OOF the second I start being like ‘hey maybe I can ship this’ about Kirk and La’An they drop that bombshell about Carol Marcus like can La’An have a good day for ONCE also Kirk had to keep looking at her Like That™ the entire episode too??? WHORE
Still, am glad we got some Number One/La’An quality time this episode
also Uhura needs one of those curly little lapdogs to follow her everywhere and sleep in her arms, or for one of the crew to become her very invasive best friend. I nominate Ortegas since Chapel is about to bounce and leave a very sad and confused Vulcan in her wake
Hope Pike bakes Spock something with chocolate because boy is going to need it

Hey, Uhura?

Good day. THIS is the energy I want to see from SNW.
This one goes out to all my fellow spirk fans in the trenches this week. This is obviously the canon reason the SNW writers couldn't introduce Jim Kirk to Spock until this episode had occurred.

Spock + Human Emotion
STRANGE NEW WORLDS // 2x05 "Charades"
Human!Spock was honestly such a treat to see for a full episode. Watching how he goes from relaxing and expressing himself to losing his shit, or just being unable to contain it (~muscle spasms~) was so interesting. Esp to me as someone who went from suppressing / barely reacting to most events to falling apart at the drop of a hat...
All the little details throughout all versions he played starting from Regular!Spock to Human!Spock to Human-Pretending-to-Be-Vulcan!Spock were all so nuanced and fascinating. Like you could see the immediate shift after Chapel gave him the cure just from the look in his eyes!
It’s a shame Ethan Peck won’t get more chances to be chaotic and comedic, because he is funny
