Yknow what I LOVE about the Star Trek fandom? It’s ANCIENT. I had a talk with a nice old lady at the old persons home that my great grandma is in and she noticed my Spock shirt and was like “oh I love that show I thought the premise was lovely” and you all know THE PREMISE is trekspeak for spirk and I was like “do you accept the premise because I do” and she looked at me with the eyes of someone who is reliving their otp moments and she said “the premise is all I wrote about, dear” and we just talked about spirk for a hella long time and I just love how age doesn’t matter in this fandom you can be ninety and still be the biggest spirk bitch ever how rad is that

Summary: “Spock has spent most of his life ostracized for being “other.” Amongst Vulcans, he’s the most human. Amongst humans, he’s the most Vulcan. The Enterprise has provided him with a unique environment, and he finally feels safe enough to experiment with showing his authentic self. That is, until an accident on an away-mission damages his emotional control.

His closest friends rally to help him, but he starts to suspect the rest of his crewmates, and his human mother, prefer this damaged version of himself. There’s also the issue of keeping certain feelings hidden from his captain…”

This chapter contains: Spock takes a stand, Jim is dicked over by politics (story of his life), I want to shake Amanda and so does everyone else, and Spock experiences being Seen.

actually spock invented pon farr bc he was feeling cranky and didn’t want to go through the embarrassment of admitting it. also to see jim’s titties.

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
