So Ive Always Been Curious About Just What Is Happening During The Triumvirate Reunion At The End Of

so I’ve always been curious about just what is happening during the triumvirate reunion at the end of The City on the Edge of Forever but it all happens so fast I can’t see it! so I exploded the gif and, honestly, every frame is pure joy but here are some of my favs:

spock hittin the brakes

‘spock do u hear that?’

‘omg it’s bones!!’

at first you think bones is just taking a step outside, but no

bones is fucking RUNNING towards them. look at that bent knee; perfect for jumping into the arms of his husbands

and then jim throws his arms open. yes! hug him!!

jim is going in for the kill, and spock is realizing that he’s not going to get a hug unless he acts fast. meanwhile if you look closely you can see bones’ smile as he sets himself up for an armful of excitable captain

pictured: pure happiness

kirk just LAUNCHES himself

and bones is right there to catch him (notice the blurry hand to kirk’s right)

as the two hug, spock keeps reaching for bones

bones is so ecstatic he misses the spock-reach at first. he goes for a full hug with jim, both arms wrapping around him

so pure

this one is my fave. he is SO happy

now bones notices spock is reaching for him. good thing, too, because spock is about two seconds away from just hugging them both

spock goes up…

…but bones goes down

ending in a handshake. which can be interpreted multiple ways (is it a vulcan kiss or a brotherly statement of affection? or both?)

whatever it is they seem to share a moment. bones’ unbridled joy is somewhat tempered, but he seems more at ease. perhaps shaking spock’s hand made him realize how serious the situation was, if spock of all people was worried about him

he slowly lets go of jim (but jim does NOT let go of him. look at that glomp!) while continuing to shake spock’s hand, struck by the power of their reunion. he looks into spock’s eyes once more…

…and then to their joined hands, smiling slightly.

I love having a therapist who's a nerd like me cause I'm learning to be nice to myself but I also get to derail my appointments by saying shit like "Yeah I don't really like the whole Wolverine being into Jean thing, if he absolutely NEEDS one of these redheads Scott's RIGHT THERE." and he knows exactly what I'm talking about

i will... draw for fun... the things that..... bring me joy ...

why do they have such similar vibes

Watched the horrible minecraft movie trailer </3 My friends and I decided to make this stupid thing while suffering Bingo to find out how bad that movie is actually going to be

@a-witch-in-a-dumpster thank you for half the ideas <3

literally my favorite type of tweet
