Love That Spock Is A Passenger Princess. Completely Out Of The Question That He Drive Himself In A Piece

Love that Spock is a passenger princess. Completely out of the question that he drive himself in A Piece of the Action. His job is holding two huge guns and bitching about Kirk's driving

Trektober prompt day 19: Decontamination

CLEAN HIM!!!

Kirk, to Spock’s Katra: That’s a beautiful Doctor you’re wearing.

Spock’s Katra, inside Bones: Thanks, it has pockets

I know this is just based on one word „insanity“, but the way Kirk is so intrigued when Spock warns him of it - I just picture Sturgeon sitting there writing like „oh yes, Spock and Kirk, watch out for that strange insanity“

Later episodes like Obsession took inspiration from Moby Dick, so it exists as an influence on the show- maybe Sturgeon took from it earlier.

[And side note: the first chapters of Moby Dick have two guys sharing a bed BECAUSE THERE IS ONLY ONE BED LEFT]

Maybe this is reaching but anyone else think about THAT scene in Moby Dick, when Spock talks about his Pon Farr insanity in Amok Time

You know Moby Dick, the book famous for its queer subtext

Oh and I just found out Theodore Sturgeon was a sailor LOL pretty sure he read that book

I fully understand why Star Trek invented modern fandom and fanfiction because they always end these completely insane episodes so abruptly you're left there wondering wtf you've just experienced. And then imagine there's no internet and no way to see that episode again for MONTHS!!

Like after Return to Tomorrow I need at least twenty more minutes to see the characters react to that batshit crazy plot they came up with.
