Answer 21 questions tag
Tagged by @crazy4dragons (thank you!) rules: answer 21 questions and tag 21 people
Nickname: My friends just call me Soof (I think?), but my mother has a special nickname for me and my sister. Her name is Lydia, which could be shortened to Lyd. Lied (same pronounciation) is Dutch for the word "Song". When we were little, our mother would call us Liedje (Dutch for "little song") & Versje (Dutch for "little poem") and sometimes she still calls us like this.
Zodiac: Capicorn (birthday is 9th of January!)
Height: 1.72m
Last movie I saw: Avengers: Endgame
Last thing I Googled: "Elsa Frozen Fever" 😂 It's a cosplay I am currently working on and I need to check the reference every now and then. Why don't I just download one picture? I forget to do it every time 😅
Favorite musician: Yeah, so, ehm, how do explain this... I don't have a favourite musician. I just jump from genre to genre and I love it all. Every musician I admire did something personal for me. Within Temptation was the first real band I ever obssessed about and I still love their music. Christina Aguilera has so many songs I love and relate to. Hans Zimmer made me fall in love with soundtracks and the power they can give to a movie. Katy Perry, Big Time Rush, Lady Gaga, Ed Sheeran, Avril Lavigne, Black Eyed Peas and many more helped me through my teenage years and the struggles of finding myself and what I want. Honorary mention to John Powell who managed to do what Hans Zimmer did to me with Pirates of the Carribean and take it to another level. Never thought I could love a series of soundtracks more than PotC but John Powell proved me wrong.
Song stuck in my head: None.
Other blogs: None. I already stress out about my personal insta and my cosplay insta, so I am going to keep it easy here, Haha.
Followers: I don't keep track, but just saw it's 18. Just started with Tumblr so yeah 😅
Following: Apparently 216
Amount of sleep: Night premiere of Endgame disrupted my sleep yesterday, but my average is about 7-8 hours.
Lucky numbers: Ever since Harry Potter (the books) announced that 7 is the most powerful and magical number, I just keep saying my lucky number is 7
Dream job: I would love to be a costume designer for theatre and films. And combine that with a writing career and a Bed&Breakfast. (I always aim for the impossible lol.)
What am I wearing: Sketchers, skinny jeans, a sleeveless top with little purple hearts on it and MY BRAND NEW CAPTAIN MARVEL SWEATER
Favorite food: Anything with cheese is heaven for me, but I have a soft spot for cinnamon rolls
Language: Dutch, English and my LinkedIn still says Latin, but I don't know if that's accurate anymore lol
Can I play an instrument: Yes, I play piano! And I sing, but that's not an official instrument...?
Favorite song: Same answer as favourite musician: please dont make me choose! I have different playlists for different moods.
Random fact: I started writing when I was around 11/12 years old (23 now). I started with little stories, most of them historical based (something with a destined love story in around the 1600s -I dont know the details anymore- and a revenge story about a village on the border of the Roman Empire being destroyed, but one boy survives and becomes this archery prodigy who kills every Roman who dares to cross the border and helps the villages that are being threathened by the Romans. I never finished them, sadly. I actually still want to write the last story again, someday.) Around 12/13 I started with fanfiction, but only little stories from Harry Potter and, in Dutch. I was 14 when I started my first big multi-chapter fic. I was active on a Dutch website, but they didn't have any Jily (shipname for James Potter & Lily Evans) fics, so I started my own. After a year or two I had developed too much as a writer, I didn't like my writing from the beginning of the story, so I started from scratch. And after 115K+ words and 5 years, I finished the story at the age of 19. After that, I got a major writers block (probably caused by a depression) and I stopped writing. But now, having found Tumblr, AO3 and most importantly: the HTTYD fandom, I was inspired to write stories again! And I am so happy that I gave in to the urge, because I am so happy with all the kudos, comments and all the other writers I have found! It's a challenge, because I had to switch to English, but my boyfriend is the kindest for being my own personal beta-reader. Also, because of AO3 I read so much again and I am so happy with that!
Describe yourself in aesthetic things: Idunno what exactly are aesthetic things, but let me try: a measuring tape on a dress form; a cooking knife on a board with a whisk in a bowl; a open book with all kinds of fantasy things coming out of it; a castle in the morning sun; an arch in a garden with blue rain on it; a sofa with a blanket and a very large television with a very expensive sound system and a chaotic mess of papers with a pen next to a laptop.
Tagging: @hiccupfound @alsoaleteia @frosinn @corona-the-nightcutter @tysonrunningfox @martabm90 and yeah 21 people are a lot and I just feel too socially awkward to tag a bunch of people who don't know me lol

Star Trek Episode 1.4: The Naked Time
AKA: Everyone Has A Real Bad Day Except For Sulu
CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains an onscreen suicide in which a man stabs himself in the stomach and dies later in surgery. No blood or gore or details of the surgery are seen. This recap covers the first scene but does not contain any images of it. There is one screencap of the surgery scene, which does not show the body, and is only there to point out a particularly ridiculous prop.
Here's a story about The Naked Time for you: one year when I was in college I had a Star Trek wall calendar. Each month had a picture from an episode on the top half, with the name of the episode underneath it, and then some trivia about it on the bottom half. The picture for February was shirtless Sulu posing on the bridge, naturally captioned The Naked Time. So one day a friend of mine who didn't watch Star Trek was over hanging out when she saw my calendar, and I wound up having to explain to her that yes, that was an actual Star Trek episode, no it was not a porn parody of Star Trek, yes it was really called The Naked Time, no, no one actually got naked in it. Which was quite the conversation. You try explaining shirtless Sulu with that caption completely out of context.
February was a good month that year.
Our episode begins with the Enterprise orbiting a planet called Psi 2000, because 2000 is the coolest number (except for 3000). Psi 2000 is an old planet, now little more than an arctic wasteland, which is near the end of its life. So near, in fact, that it's about to fall apart completely, and the Enterprise is there to watch (for science). Before they do that, though, they've got to pick up a research team that's been stationed down on the planet surface.
But all is not well, for we soon see that the inside of the research lab is just as much of an arctic wasteland as the outside, complete with a dead person sprawled over a console. Spock and some dude beam down wearing snazzy orange bubble wrap suits and Spock examines the stiff with his Pringles can gun.
Tumblr media
[ID: Spock and another man wearing textured orange hazmat suits, faces only barely visible, standing in a room covered with dubiously realistic snow and ice. A body is slumped over the table in front of them, also covered in snow. Spock is pointing a cylindrical device at it.]
The two of them split up, the dude to check out the life support systems and Spock to examine the horrible scene of a shop window mannequin half-buried in snow. His Pringles can tells him that she's been strangled. The dude comes back and reports that all life support systems are off and there are four more dead people, including the engineer frozen apathetically at his post and another man taking a shower fully-clothed. Well, maybe his clothes were dirty too.
As Spock goes to check out this spectacle for himself, the dude wanders back into the main room and gets out a device of some sort that makes whirring sounds. But then his face itches, so, like the competent Starfleet officer he is, he carries on and ignores this. Ha ha, no, I'm just kidding. He takes his glove off, puts it on the dead guy's head, then sticks his bare hand up his helmet to scratch himself. As if that wasn't bad enough, he then leaves the glove off while he messes around on the floor. When he puts his hand on the side of the desk, we see an ominous red spot in the ice. To give the guy the very little credit he deserves, he doesn't put his hand directly on the red spot, but this doesn't matter much because some of the liquid crawls upward and splatters onto his hand anyway. And he obviously notices this, because he shakes his hand, sticks it back into his helmet to sniff it, then puts his glove back on like nothing happened.
Immediately afterward, Spock comes back and tells him to be certain they expose themselves to nothing. Well, have I got some bad news for you.
Spock calls up to the Enterprise to tell them what's going on, and when Kirk asks what caused all this, Spock says it's like nothing they've dealt with before. The drama of this is a bit undermined by two things: one, everything they deal with is like nothing they've dealt with before, and two, Spock says this in a complete and utter deadpan, even by Spock standards.
After the titles, Kirk recaps what just happened, and says that despite it all they're still going to hang out and watch the planet implode because hey, why waste a trip. Spock and the dude—whose name is now revealed as Tormolen—beam aboard and Scotty decontaminates them by making the transporter lights flash on and off for a few seconds. Then they go over to Sickbay to get checked out just to be double sure. This consists of a brief examination which I don't think is going to be much good for revealing any contaminants they might have picked up, but at least we get to see the cool Sickbay examining tables that flip up and down.
Here's an interesting point: in this scene both Spock and Tormolen are wearing black t-shirts instead of their usual colored tunics. We saw this earlier with McCoy wearing the same kind of shirt when he was chilling back in The Man Trap, and he also seems to be wearing one under his short-sleeved blue shirt, which suggests that it's a standard uniform undershirt (especially since Spock and Tormolen put their blue shirts back on over them after they get done with the examination). So...where the hell is Kirk's? Because we're going to see Kirk with his shirt ripped or off many, many, many....many, many times throughout this series, and he's never wearing anything under it. So what gives? Are these not part of the uniform and these three random people just enjoy wearing them? Are they part of the uniform for everyone but goldshirts? Is Kirk exercising some kind of captain's privilege to not have to wear an undershirt? I don't know, man. Star Trek uniforms have never made any sense to me. Also, I’m sorry I introduced that as interesting. I don’t know why I did that.
Anyway, Spock and McCoy snark at each other a bit, but on a less cheerful note we see that Tormolen is rubbing his forearm anxiously. Which presumably means more in this context than it does when I do that about thirty times a day. Kirk comes in to see what's up, and Tormolen mournfully describes how terrible the scene was. That leads to this bit of dialogue from him and Kirk: “I keep wondering--” “You keep wondering if man was meant to be out here. You keep wondering, you keep signing on.” So either Kirk is a mind reader, or this sentiment is old ground for Tormolen.
Spock says he has no idea what happened down there, but maybe they could find something on the record tapes. Kirk tells Tormolen to go get some rest since he keeps going on about how many dead people there were down there, and he and Spock go off to check those tapes. We see Chapel (yay!) and Tormolen looking at his hand while a sinister rattling sound plays (not yay).
In the briefing room, everyone's looking over the tapes. Spock identifies one as a spectro-analysis tape, but it turns out to just be a slow pan of the room where they beamed down. I would say that's not what spectro-analysis is, but spectro-analysis (as opposed to spectral analysis) isn't a thing, so I guess you can have it mean whatever you want. Kirk muses over how bizarre and macabre this situation is, with everyone just frozen and uncaring, and asks for theories. McCoy says it couldn't be drugs or intoxication since the bio-analysis tapes, which were apparently more useful than the spectro-analysis tapes, rule that out. Spock suggests it may be some new form of space madness, which is like regular madness but in space, but he doesn't know what could have caused it since they didn't pick up anything unusual on their sensors. Scotty points out that that just means they didn't pick up anything unusual that they were designed to pick up, so this could still be something entirely new.
Kirk's main concern is this: they have to get the best readings they can of Psi 2000's breakup, and to do that means maintaining a really precise orbit, so they need absolute efficiency and no one getting space madness and randomly dying. He asks if there's any chance that what happened to the science team could affect the crew of the Enterprise. There's a conspicuous lack of any answer to this, which annoys Kirk, but hey, if they don't know what happened, how can they know what effects it's going to have? Anyway, the bridge calls in to report that the expected erratic changes are beginning to happen to the planet, and the meeting ends on that note.
In the rec room, or whatever, some people are playing space checkers (like regular checkers, but in space) and Tormolen is getting some food. He's still staring at his hand and rubbing it against his shirt like there's something on there he can't scrub off. Which I guess there is.
Sulu and friend come in to get some coffee, chatting about Sulu's latest passion: fencing. His friend complains that Sulu has a habit of picking up intense interests every week or so, which I guess is kind of thrown in there as a justification for why Sulu was in the botany lab a couple weeks ago but never shows up there again. The two of them sit down next to Tormolen and Sulu, noticing his buddy's new compulsion, asks if everything is alright, causing Tormolen to snap at him violently.
The two goldshirts get called to the bridge, but Sulu makes one last effort to check on Tormolen before they go. This really sets Tormolen off, making him jump up, knock his chair over, and go on an impassioned rant about how mankind doesn't belong in space. When his friends try to calm him down, he grabs the knife from his plate and points it first at them, then at himself. They get into a tussle, trying to take the knife from Tormolen, while everyone else in the room watches dispassionately. Thanks, guys.
Sulu and his pal aren't successful getting the knife away and all three of them take a tumble to the floor, and as they get up it's revealed that Tormolen stabbed himself in the stomach. I'm...not sure how he managed to do that with a butter knife. Sulu's friend runs over to the intercom and yells that they need medics. Then we hear another sinister rattle and he starts rubbing at his hands like Tormolen did.
After the break, Kirk gives a log saying that unbeknownst to them, a new disease has been brought on board. But this one's not in the past tense, so it just kind of makes it sound like Kirk has precognition. On the bridge, Sulu and his friend—who we finally learn is called Riley—are keeping the Enterprise steady around the rapidly condensing planet. Spock waxes on a bit about how they may be seeing Earth's own future, since before its sun went dark Psi 2000 was very similar to Earth. I dunno what we're going to do with that information, but hey, science!
Everything seems to be going alright so far, except that both Sulu and Riley have caught that bad case of Out, Damn Spot that's been going around, complete with sinister rattling. Kirk can't hear the soundtrack, though, so he doesn't notice anything off. He goes over to talk to Spock about the strange case of Tormolen. Spock thinks Tormolen was too confused to be actively trying to kill himself, but he notes that the man's capacity for self-doubt has always been high and wonders what caused it to suddenly come to the surface like that.
In Sickbay, Chapel and McCoy are operating on Tormolen, but it's not going well, even when McCoy blowtorches Tormolen's wound shut.
Tumblr media
[Image description: McCoy and Chapel, dressed in blue Sickbay scrubs, doing surgery on a draped body at a Sickbay table. McCoy is saying, “Closing,” while pointing a device at the patient. The device looks remarkably like a completely undisguised blowtorch. ]
We briefly cut away to the bridge, where there's been a sudden increase in gravity that causes the orbit to go all wonky. Riley's too busy looking at his hands to do his job, causing Kirk to have to do it while Riley sits there and sweats heavily. Back in Sickbay, Tormolen's vitals are inexplicably dropping, and despite McCoy and Chapel's best efforts, he dies. This really freaks McCoy out because Tormolen's wounds shouldn't have been fatal. He calls Kirk to Sickbay, and after taking a moment for a bit of exposition, Kirk heads down.
Sulu and Riley talk about how much they're both sweating, then Sulu abruptly suggests they head down to the gym for a bit of a workout to calm their nerves. Riley is understandably perplexed about this, but that doesn't stop Sulu from sneaking off the bridge unnoticed (somehow), leaving poor Riley with no idea what to do about it.
In Sickbay, McCoy is explaining to Kirk that Tormolen's wounds were not severe enough to kill him, and says that the only reason he died was because he didn't want to live. Um. I don't think you can will yourself to death. Especially not while you're unconscious. But McCoy can't come up with anything else, and he's especially baffled because he says that men like Tormolen don't give up. They can't be trusted to investigate inexplicable deaths without contaminating themselves and they're incredibly susceptible to ennui, but they don't give up.
Kirk wonders if this is a coincidence, with Tormolen dying after having been down on the planet where all those other people died. McCoy can't see how, since they checked everything they could and did everything that was possible. Kirk tells him to check the impossible too. What the hell does that mean? “Check if he was a vampire! See if he died from Kryptonite poisoning! Try sprinkling fairy dust on him!”
On the bridge, the orbit goes out of whack, causing Spock to finally notice that one of the helmsmen is mysteriously absent. He runs over and sets things straight, recruiting a guy called Rand (no relation) to take Sulu's place and demanding to know why Sulu isn't there. Riley is...not very helpful.
Tumblr media
[Image description: Riley, a white goldshirt with brown hair and a very drunk look on his face, sitting at the helm on the bridge and proclaiming, “Have no fear, Riley's here!”]
Spock relieves Riley, replacing him with Uhura. That's right, Uhura can run communications and fly the ship. Uhura can do anything.
Spock sends Riley to Sickbay, and Riley goes happily enough, sauntering off through the corridors and opening the Sickbay doors by blowing on them. He goes in and pesters Chapel, first mournfully asking her what happened to Tormolen, then, without skipping a beat, starts hitting on her, causing more sinister rattling when he touches her chin. Then he says that Tormolen's mistake was that he wasn't born an Irishman. Because as we all know, Irish people are immortal. Then he leaves. Well, to be fair, Spock just said to report to Sickbay, he didn't say anything about what to do when Riley got there.
Riley's pretty quickly overshadowed though, because immediately afterwards we see Sulu burst through a door, shirtless, laughing, waving a rapier, and having the time of his life.
Tumblr media
[ID: Sulu, wearing only his uniform pants and boots, standing in the middle of an Enterprise corridor, grinning and striking a duelist’s pose with a rapier. The subtitle reads [Music]. ]
Legend has it that the original script was undecided about whether Sulu was using a rapier or a samurai sword, and that the choice was up to Takei, who went with the rapier because he felt that the samurai sword was much too stereotypical for a Japanese character, something he really wanted to break away from because in the 60s it was really goddamn hard for an Asian actor to get any role that wasn't a pile of stereotypes. Legend—and by legend, I mean, George Takei—also has it that Takei spent the time up until the shoot frantically doing push-ups in his dressing room to prepare for his shirtless scenes. He really enjoyed this episode, and boy howdy can you tell by watching him.
Sulu encounters a couple of crewmen walking the other way, who have an astounding lack of reaction to being spontaneously menaced by a really sweaty guy with a sword. At least, up until he charges them, at which point they turn tail and run away. Sulu only finds greater amusement in this, calling them cowards as he climbs up a nearby ladder.
Meanwhile, Spock gets a guy to relieve Uhura, and Kirk comes on the bridge to discuss the strange case of the missing helmsmen. He tells Uhura to send a security team out to locate and confine the two of them, and Uhura responds with a report about Sulu's antics.
Spock proposes a pattern of hidden personality traits suddenly surfacing: Tormolen's self-doubt, Sulu's desire to be a swashbuckler, and Riley...being really proud of being Irish. I guess that's a personality trait.
Before they can go any farther with this theory, there's another disturbance from the planet, only this time the helmsmen can't compensate because their controls aren't working. Kirk decides enough's enough and orders them to warp out of there, but the warp drive also isn't responding. Neither are the impulse engines.
Kirk heads off to see what's up with this, but he's interrupted by Sulu bursting in on the bridge, waving his sword around wildly, and I don't think Shatner's expression as the rapier gets shoved in his face had much to do with acting. Uhura tries to get the sword away, but Sulu grabs her to his side, declaring, “I'll protect you, fair maiden!” To which she responds, “Sorry, neither.” Wow. Censors were asleep that day, huh.
A triple attack by Kirk, Spock and Uhura gets Sulu a Vulcan nerve pinch for his trouble, and Spock has him hauled off to Sickbay, with a surprisingly snarky comment from Spock about “D'Artagnan here.” Kirk goes back to trying to raise Scotty about that engine trouble...but it's not Scotty that replies. It's Riley. He says that he's relieved Scotty of his duties and also that he's the captain now. Apparently they can't shut him off, either, because he goes on to demand double portions of ice cream for dinner and then starts singing “I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen.” Kirk's face says it all.
Tumblr media
[ID: Kirk, standing on the bridge next to the lift doors with one hand to his forehead, looking extremely frustrated, while Riley sings, “I’ll take you home again Kathleen...” over the intercom.]
Kirk's having a really bad day.
With nineteen minutes to go before they swandive into the collapsing planet, Kirk finally reaches Engineering, where Scotty is doing his best to get in. He says that Riley told everyone that Kirk wanted them on the bridge, then locked the door behind them. Wow. It is really easy to take over Engineering. Not only that, but Riley's hooked everything up to the main panel in Engineering, so they can't use auxiliary control. The only way they can get back into Engineering is to literally burn a hole through the wall, which is going to be tricky because the wall is full of stuff that you really don't want to burn through.
Riley's still singing, and I would comment on the quality of his singing, but that would be very hypocritical of me, so I won't. Besides, everyone else in the episode will do it for me. Uhura reports to Spock that various incidents among the crew are increasing, either because of the sickness or because they're all just worried they're gonna die, so Spock orders her to have the main sections sealed off so they can hopefully slow down the spread of this thing. But Uhura's alert is cut off by Riley, who's also overridden the alert channels. You can do anything from Engineering. Riley tells Uhura that she won't get ice cream since she interrupted his song. Awwww. He also says there will be a dance in the bowling alley later. Hang on, they have a bowling alley? Of all the things you could have installed for entertainment on your starship, you picked a bowling alley? No wonder they're so desperate for shore leave all the time.
Uhura says she can't do anything to cut Riley off, so Spock goes over and presses a bunch of buttons to confirm this. I've noticed a running theme in this show is that no one believes Uhura when she says she can't do something or something's not working. Then again, that happens to Scotty a lot too.
Just then, there's a big jolt, and everyone dutifully flings themselves across the set. My favorite part of this is the brief cutaway to Sickbay where we see McCoy doing a belly flop across Sulu's legs.
Tumblr media
[ID: Sickbay tilting to the side, causing Chapel to fall backward onto a bed and McCoy to wind up horizontal on top of a passed-out Sulu.]
He calls up to the bridge to complain about this (apparently Riley didn't bother cutting that particular channel) and says that they're running tests on Sulu but haven't found anything yet. Kirk asks if there's anything he can do about Riley, but McCoy's got nuthin. Not even some tranquilizer gas to pump in there or anything. You're falling down on the job, there, Bones. Literally and metaphorically.
Riley calls in again to give the female crewmembers orders on how to look (thanks dude), including telling them not to wear too much makeup. You don't want too much makeup on this ship, Riley, you better take that up with Mr. Spock and his eyeshadow.
Then he starts singing “I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen” one more time. Which I guess is the only song he knows. You couldn't mix it up a bit there, Riley? Rocky Road To Dublin? Galway Bay? Thousands Are Sailing? No?
Scotty does something that gives the bridge enough power to keep the ship stabilized, but that's not that much help since their orbit is still decaying and they're now sixteen minutes away from faceplanting into the planet (faceplaneting). Kirk takes a moment to sign a PADD for a crewman. Kirk. Kirk, the ship is crashing. You can do paperwork later. He sends Spock down to help McCoy, but tells him to stop on the way to harangue Scotty to go faster.
On his way, Spock encounters a maniacally laughing man who's painted 'love mankind' on the wall, and a goldshirt harassing Rand, because harassing Rand is the main pastime on the Enterprise. Spock tells him to stop that, and he does...until Spock leaves, whereupon he immediately starts again. Helpful.
Spock finds Scotty, who says he's doing the best he can, dammit, and he can't cut through the bulkhead safely any faster, but Spock tells him they don't have time to be safe. This clearly perturbs Scotty deep in his engineer's soul. Not much anyone can do about it now, though.
In Sickbay, McCoy is yelling at the biopsy lab, but they're not responding, so he goes over to yell at them in person. Chapel is left behind with Sulu, who's coming out of the tranquilizer (we can tell because he's thrashing his head around and grunting). Unfortunately Chapel has the contagion from where Riley touched her, and she wanders off.
Things aren't going well on the bridge. Riley is still singing, various people are having to be shoved out of their chairs as they succumb to the contagion, and Kirk is about to lose it. He snaps at Uhura to cut Riley off, and she snaps back at him that she sure as hell would if she could. Kirk has the good grace to apologize, but it's understandable; I think anyone would lose it after that many renditions of “I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen.”
Spock finally makes it to Sickbay, where he encounters Chapel, who starts rubbing his hand and talking about how the men from Vulcan treat their women. Keep in mind that's the Vulcan equivalent of passionately making out, so Spock is understandably pretty perturbed by this, especially when she starts saying she loves him. Spock finally manages to disentangle himself, but it's too late: he's been infected too. He wanders out into the corridor, ignoring Uhura's attempts to get a hold of him, and starts sniffling, which is the Spock equivalent of attacking people with a sword.
Kirk stomps down to Engineering with some security guys in tow, where Scotty is finishing up cutting a Tetris block-shaped piece out of the wall. He reaches his hand right in the still-smoking hole (badass) and opens the door, letting Kirk and the redshirts rush in and apprehend Riley. Riley's a graceful loser, though; he just says, “No dance tonight,” and gets thrown into the redshirts while Kirk and Scotty desperately start pushing buttons.
Meanwhile, Spock finds an empty room to duck into, and tries desperately to get control of himself, collapsing into a chair and muttering some math as he breaks into sobs. This is an interesting scene, because it wasn't originally in the script; Spock was supposed to have a much more light-hearted encounter where he burst into tears after getting a mustache drawn on him by the mad graffiti artist. Nimoy objected, feeling that this was out of character for Spock and missing a great opportunity, so he pushed for the scene to be changed. He had to keep pushing, because the scriptwriter didn't initially want to do it, and then it came in at the end of the shooting day and no one thought they could get it done in time, but Nimoy persevered and did the whole thing in one take right under the wire.
The result is something special: a rare scene showing Spock in a moment of true, open vulnerability, confessing to the feelings he insists he doesn't have, the struggle to keep himself restrained and logical to the point that he can't confess feelings like love and friendship even to himself. It also stands out from the rest of the episode, as aside from Tormolen—whose arc, while tragic, is rather flat--most of the results of the affliction are much more Wacky Hijinks than anything seriously emotional.
There's bad news in Engineering: Scotty's found out that Riley turned the engines off completely, and it would take thirty minutes to start them up again. This is bad, since they're now starting to burn up in the planet's atmosphere and have got about eight minutes left...leading to one of Scotty's most famous lines: “I cannot change the laws of physics. I got to have thirty minutes!”
Well, Kirk isn't going to take the immutable laws of physics as an excuse. He suggests a controlled implosion of the engines, but Scotty says that's only a theory and has never been done. They'd need a row of computers working weeks to find the right formula. Speaking of which, where is Spock?
In Sickbay, Sulu has finally come round, which for some reason involves screaming at the top of his lungs while McCoy watches dispassionately.
Tumblr media
[ID: Sulu sitting up in Sickbay and screaming, while McCoy watches him with a hypospray in his hand.]
When he's done screaming, Sulu seems back to normal and apparently doesn't remember anything since he left the bridge. That's enough for McCoy, who shoves Chapel out of her chair (there's a lot of shoving people out of their chairs in this episode) and calls the lab to tell them they've finally isolated the problem. He says that somehow on Psi 2000 water has changed to a complex chain of molecules (it what now) that's passed through perspiration and acts like alcohol once it's in the bloodstream. Except it doesn't cause anyone to lose coordination, or slur their speech, or throw up, or pass out, or have difficulty thinking, or have any effect aside from soul-baring and a lot of sweating. So...maybe not a whole lot like alcohol. McCoy tries to tell all this to the lab, but they just laugh hysterically at him, so he goes off to do it himself.
Kirk finds Spock (...somehow) and demands to know why he's crying in a side room while the ship is crashing. Spock starts talking about his mother and how he could never tell her he loved her. It's very moving, but we've only got five minutes before no one on the ship is going to be telling anyone anything ever again, so Kirk's got no time to listen. Not even when Spock says that he feels ashamed when he feels friendship for Kirk, a touching admission which is somewhat undercut by the fact that Kirk is currently expressing that friendship by smacking Spock repeatedly across the face.
Eventually Spock gets tired of this and backhands Kirk in return, sending him tumbling over the nearby table with such force I'm surprised Spock didn't break his jaw in the process. Kirk starts ranting about the about implosion process and then smacks the nearby console when Uhura tries to contact him, from which he intuits that he's got the infection. Then he starts going on about how the Enterprise consumes everything in his life and he can't have normal relationships. Now, when Tormolen, Sulu and Riley were affected it took considerable time for substantial behavior changes to occur, but Kirk has to one-up everyone so he managed it in about five seconds. Meanwhile, Spock calms down and starts talking about the intermix formula, because...I guess he just got over this by himself. Also, I'm pretty sure five minutes have passed by now.
Scotty comes in to try and get something useful out of somebody, and he and Spock go off to work on the intermix formula, leaving Kirk to angstily make his way up to the bridge. As he steps out of the turbolift, McCoy is waiting to give him the antidote, which he does by ripping Kirk's sleeve open. Even though hyposprays can go through clothing. And Kirk's exposed neck is right there. And a gentle tug at the fabric would have been more than sufficient. Look, McCoy's had a long day, alright, he needs to take it out on somebody.
Tumblr media
[ID: Kirk standing in front of the bridge lift doors looking tired and annoyed while McCoy injects a hypospray into the bare skin on his arm exposed by Kirk’s uniform shirt sleeve being ripped open almost down to the elbow.]
While we're at it, the question must be asked: how did McCoy manage to not get infected this whole time? He was in ample contact with lots of people who were infected, while wearing a short-sleeved shirt, and somehow never once had the slightest bit of skin-to-skin contact with any of them? The only thing I can come up with is that he was infected but it was impossible to tell any difference.
On the screen, the planet is rushing past closer and closer while everyone stares silently. In Engineering, Spock and Scotty are cutting even more corners to get the intermix to work in time. They do...something, and the lights go dim on the bridge while everyone reacts dramatically; Kirk goes full throttle by throwing his head back in a silent scream, while McCoy is content to rub his ear and squint a bit.
Then it's all over: the lights come back up and instead of a rapidly approaching planet on the viewscreen there's an open starfield. Spock comes up to say that they were successful, obviously, but with a bit of a hitch: they overloaded the engines and now they're traveling faster than possible. Not only that, but the ship chronometer is now running backward. They're going backward in time! Why is this happening? Who knows. Maybe they just went so fast they came back around again the other way.
They hit the brakes, but not before traveling three days back in time. Well, could've been worse. Spock points out that this is all very intriguing, having, you know, access to time travel now, but Kirk isn't interested in repeating this experiment anytime soon. He tells Sulu to take them on to their next destination. Um. Are you sure it's a good idea to head to your next destination before you've technically departed your last one? You're gonna get some questions from Starfleet about why you're not on the mission you're supposed to be on.
Anyway, the episode ends there, leaving the whole time travel thing a bizarre non-sequitor that comes out of nowhere, adds nothing whatsoever to the episode, and is never mentioned again. This is because this episode was originally supposed to be a two-parter leading into Tomorrow Is Yesterday, which is a proper full-fledged time travel episode. For whatever reason that didn't happen, though, so we just have this weird little endcap that it's probably best not to think about too much.
TREK TROPE TALLY: Crew death count for this episode is one blueshirt (Tormolen), bringing us up to seventeen. We also have our first case of Space Diseases with the Emotions Virus, our first case of a Time Trek, albeit an extremely mild one with the Enterprise getting thrown back three days into the past, and our second case of Uniforms Unformed with Kirk’s tissue-paper sleeve being mercilessly destroyed by McCoy. Next time, we'll be looking at a tale of doppelganger woe in The Enemy Within.

Calm in chaos. || January 5th, 2018.
It was another quiet night in, which meant there was another chance for him to delve further into his thoughts. A dangerous combination for him given the last couple months of his life. The days after a therapy session were always like that, though; lots of time where he’ll space out and find himself ruminating over what they spoke about the day or days prior. It was his chance to use the usual daunting quiet time to his advantage to calm the storm brewing between his ears as best he could. At least that’s what he would usually do in these times; can’t so much when the blonde-streaked head of his girlfriend was resting comfortably in his lap as they partook in some evening television watching.
He wasn’t opposed to it in actuality; hell, it was one of the things he’d find himself idly doing--playing with her hair when they were doing nothing but enjoying the presence of the other on a nice and calm evening. Preferred it, even. It was nice and allowed for him to tune out everything as though they were pure white noise and just focus on his thoughts with close to perfect equanimity. As tough as the previous month and a half had been on them, his relationship with Allysin was probably the most certain he felt about anything in his life.
As a shock to absolutely no one, Ethan flatout hated uncertainty. He hated the feeling of being stuck in a sort of mental purgatory whenever something in his life was in the air, up for interpretation because he couldn’t exactly be the deciding factor in his own fate. It was a human trait--possibly the most human trait he could share with other people--that forced him in a corner when he had to figure what was best for him. Which, funny enough, was a concept he had gladly implemented in his life 8 and a half months ago when he smashed a beer bottle over James Storm’s head to cost him the then-TNA World Heavyweight Championship.
...Ethan’s World Heavyweight Championship. A point of contention he deemed as a fact that hadn’t been lost on him since it was stolen from him two years ago. A title that had gone under a facelift and name change since Anthem took hold over the company and had since ousted Dixie from her post as czar of TNA/Impact. A title that Ethan was damn sure they would never, ever allow him anywhere near again. And because of that, he looked at Impact and saw something virtually unrecognizable to the point he was wholly unsure of his future.
That was the source of all his uncertainty; it wasn’t the same company it once was. Many of the men and women who had been in the company when he made his debut nearly five years ago were either gone or in the process of leaving and in their place were people he had minimal interaction with. Sure the regulars were there--Eddie, Moose, Trevor, Allysin, Allie, Rosemary somewhere in the shadows. Even Eli’s annoying candor that left Ethan feeling moribund after every interaction was there but he recognized that it was all dwindling. When the man he previously had a heated rivalry with, James Storm, leaves after fifteen years of devoted service, it makes him notice the landscape.
He wasn’t sure of much but he had the feeling that he wasn’t going to be able to ascend in the company like he previously did and it made him sick. It made him fill up with anger every time he thought about it. Anger he had since used to make thinly veiled comments about the three-headed dog that was currently battling over ownership while Ethan was given the task to be the flag bearer of the Grand Championship division--a prize that, under the strongest of truth serums (aka alcohol), he’d admit felt was a consolation prize made only to keep his mouth shut when he started talking about opportunities. It all made him circle back to what his therapist told him, in the most vague of manners.
Whatever decision you choose to make about this will be what’s best for you but you can’t worry about the reactions others have.
And that’s what he had been doing for the better part of the last 10 months. Unfortunately, everything he did had consequences and their own built in systems of karma attached. From breaking a beer bottle over Storm’s head, which led to him getting a shot at the title that was ultimately lost to Alberto to him volleying back and forth between Alexa and Chelsea that led to him ultimately getting left by the latter during their relationship to him forsaking the unspoken code of “don’t fuck your ex’s best friend and damn sure don’t get into a relationship with her” that led to his, Allysin, and Chelsea’s personal lives all being splattered for the world to comment on, everything he did for seemingly selfish reasons all led back to life knocking him back down a peg in favor of altruism. Life’s natural order of checks and balances had him keenly observant of what the aftereffects his actions might be on people around him.
It was that level of heightened self-awareness that made him cognizant of what questions would be asked of him if and when it came out that his contract status was, indeed, in flux. Something he had only shared with Layla and  Allysin, the latter of which he shared information at great length and detail with. It was a level of uncertainty that was quickly becoming chaotic with each passing day, to the point he found himself awake at night, lost in his own thoughts when he should be fast asleep, unable to shut his brain off enough to get a few more hours of sleep.
The inevitable was reaching his doorstep sooner than he would like. He did his best not to think about it, put all thoughts at bay so he could enjoy his time with Allysin and in retrospect, the last month they’ve had together in his house, just being a regular couple who did regular couple things helped him not acknowledge the one problem they both knew was facing him as soon as he got to the TV tapings. Among other things, the time they had spent together helped reassure him of the certainty he had with her; that he loved her more than he was willing to let on, which also meant whatever decision he made would’ve no doubt had an effect on her.
And so, he sat there, staring at the television screen, eyes blank, ears hearing nothing but white noise coming out of the speakers. An almost catatonic state of calmness that was only broken up by the feeling of a hand swatting him on the thigh to break his concentration.
“Ethan! Did you not hear me? Less scratching and more playing with my hair.”
Allysin’s voice broke him out of his train of thought, causing him to shake his head of the apparent cobwebs that were floating around. Lost in his own world, he seemingly forgot that he was petting Allysin’s hair and instead, his method went from petting to scratching her scalp because of it.
“Oh, shit; sorry.” He muttered in response, blinking hard as he snapped out of it, finally.
“You doin’ okay? You’ve been strangely quiet today. What’s going on up there?”
She had since sat up to look at him, her eyebrows furrowed in momentary concern as she looked to try and discern what his nonverbal cues meant. In the time they had been together, they had become aware of the little quirks and tells the other had when something was wrong or on their mind, like their bodies were telling on them when they didn’t really want to speak.
“Oh, nothin’. It’s...it’s nothing. Just me being stuck in my own head as per usual. Don’t mind me.”
“Yeah? You...do you wanna talk about it?”
“Nah, not right now. Not tonight anyway.”
And there the conversation went, the door closed almost all the way except for a small crack as he pulled her in so she could rest her head on his shoulder. Wasn’t that he didn’t want to talk to her about the it--he did. She was probably the one person he could talk to about this without feeling like someone was going to use it against him. His reason for not wanting to talk about it were that he didn’t want to burden her with his issues, knowing the amount of cumulative stress she had gathered on her shoulders over the last few months. In reality? The person he was protecting from this conversation was himself.
And that? That was what caused him to shy away from all the chaos. Because if he couldn’t save himself from that uncomfortable conversation, then the next best thing was to save the woman he loves. At least that’s what he’s telling himself.

Chapter 26 - Man, it doesn’t show signs of stoppin’ [part 2]
Birds Of a Feather
(In the previous chapters: Ed found out Layla’s ticket to Boston but decided not to do anything about it, Layla put everybody’s presents under the Christmas tree and finally went to the airport... in the meantime, Eddie went for a walk and pondered about his relationship with the girl and Sara apparently took part in a Christmas recital. WARNING: a super-short update – this means that another one will come sooner than you expect – and traces of Italian here and there; if you can’t grasp our mothertongue’s words, just ask – it won’t be an essential dialogue, but it’s always nice to understand every hidden undertone, right?)
14:00 BOSTON AA978 GATE 28 DELAYED TO 16:30
Layla snorted as she saw the scoreboard change for the second time. She had already sensed it wasn’t good news because she had heard some irritated clamor from the other passengers waiting like her. At 11:30 she was already at SeaTac although the flight was scheduled at 14, because she was afraid of getting stuck in traffic and missing it, also considering it was the day before Christmas and the sleet was getting heavier. A first delay of one hour had been announced almost immediately and now there was a second one and nobody was explaining the reason. <Other flights are being delayed too> Layla thought, sitting on an iron bench and holding onto her trolley suitcase as she looked through the names and numbers on the scoreboard. She wanted to call David to warn him about her being late, but she also didn’t really want to give up her seat since the waiting space was packed and someone would have taken her place as soon as she had stood up. It took another delay to 17:00 a few minutes later for her to finally decide to go searching for a payphone. She dialed the number and hated herself for still knowing his number by heart. <Hello> “David, it’s me” she said, as she put another couple of quarters into the payphone, just to be sure. Usually a quarter wasn’t even a minute. <Hey, babe, where are you? Shouldn’t you be boarding your flight like... right now?> “Yes, I was supposed to, but it was delayed and-” <Right, was I supposed to? Like, really? Am I doing the right thing? Why am I here? Why am I on the phone with this guy? Shouldn’t I be calling my family? Shouldn’t I be getting ready to go to a party somewhere instead of wasting my time?> <Layla, please, you don’t need to find an excuse not to come, just say you don’t want to> he blurted out, interrupting Layla’s considerations, and it took all her patience not to tell him to go fuck himself <Maybe that’s what I should have said before, instead of accepting this invitation> Layla thought before speaking. “It’s no fuckin’ excuse, for fuck’s sake!, I’ve been here in this fuckin’ airport for almost five fuckin’ hours just to come to Boston and give you a fuckin’ chance to explain and apologize and right now I’ve just lost my fuckin’ seat and I’m using a dirty ass payphone that’s stealing all my fuckin’ money and I’m holding the fucking receiver with a napkin ‘cause it’s fuckin’ disgusting and you know I’m not exactly finicky and delicate so you can imagine how bad it is. And all this just because I wanted to warn you so you won’t get fuckin’ worried... So don’t you dare saying I’m making up fuckin’ excuses!” <Uhhhh, ok... When’s the flight scheduled, then?> he asked as if nothing had happened and Layla didn’t know if she should be relieved or not. She couldn’t believe she managed to cut him off so easily and prevent him from making a scene. At the same time she felt some kind of frustration. “17:00” <WHAT? Do you mean you’ll be here by ten o’clock in the evening? More or less?> “I hope so” <Apparently he’s already changing his mind...> Layla said to herself and she was sort of surprised when she found herself almost waiting for him to come up with one of his excuses to ditch her on Christmas Eve. <Fuck, I guess we’ll be waiting for Santa snowed in in my car> David smirked and Layla felt almost disappointed. “Snowed in? Is it snowing there?” <It’s been snowing for a good hour. Actually, I was considering leaving home right now so I’m sure I can get to the airport on time to get you> “Maybe that’s why flights have been delayed repeatedly, because of the snow” <Well, uh, looks like weathering is against our reconciliation, hehe> he joked and for a second she took it seriously. <Maybe it’s a sign, maybe I should just get out of here and go back home... that’s actually not my home but my neighbors' apartment and is most likely empty by now. Sara’s with her family, Jeff is at his party and Eddie must be with him for sure. At least I’m in company here> Layla pondered as she looked around to see the many tired and angry faces of people waiting for their flights to go back home for Christmas. “Everything is against this, most of all logic, but if we’re putting an end to this relationship, we’ll do it on good terms” <IF?> David asked, clearly amused. <Of course he had to focus on that detail...> “Sure, we are ending this” <But you said if, so it means there’s still hope!> he eagerly pointed out. “Surely there’s no hope for my flight because they’ve just announced it’s been delayed to 18:30...” <If you’re dressed in red you could just pretend you’re Santa and bring the presents because you won’t be here before midnight> “If I’m Santa, I’m afraid kids will get their Christmas presents on Easter if it keeps on snowing like this” <So, are you ditching me on Christmas?> “Listen, I’ll call you back in one hour and give you an update on the situation, ok?” <Make it half an hour, babe; some friends are going to Boston Common first and then to a party at the frat house and I wanna keep that opportunity open, you know, just in case> the guy said and Layla finally recognized her old boyfriend. <Of course he had a plan B, I’m the loser who only had one plan. A stupid one> “Ok, later” she said and hung up the phone as she already made up her mind.
************************************************************************************************
I’ve been out walking I don’t do too much talking these days These days
Sara couldn’t see it, but she knew that the tip of her nose was bright red; nonetheless, she didn’t cover it with her scarf and kept on walking – the frost bit it, but at least it was something she could feel. In fact it might had been hours since she had said goodbye to her friend, pretending to go straight home but instead choosing to walk numbly through the streets of Seattle. It could have been a whole day, for all she knew. Under the bonnet she was wearing her trusted headphones, while her Walkman was playing the tape she had made some time before, the one for when she had the “mean reds” like Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. This was one of those days.
These days I seem to think a lot About the things that I forgot to do And all the times I had the chance to
The wind hit her with lashings of snowflakes, making her eyes sting, but that wasn’t enough to stop her; she kept on wandering, no particular direction in her mind. Her legs thought otherwise, dragging her to a familiar neighborhood where she hadn’t set foot in a few years; it was bittersweet to see how time hadn’t been able to erase that route from her memories, and yet she wasn’t able to turn her back and go back to the loft she was sharing with her best friend, her best friend’s crush and her bitter enemy, who also happened to be her ex-crush.   <Since when has my life become this fucked up?> A couple of minutes later, she was in front of 852 Northeast 68th Street.
I had a lover I don’t think I’d risk another these days These days
Sara took in the sloping roof, the dark red building and the way the snow had covered that garden where she had played and strolled for eleven years, and then sighed: her heart was aching badly and yet she had just arrived there. The girl was gazing distractedly at the wisteria tree – now just an entanglement of withered branches, all twisted – when suddenly she saw a dark spot out of the corner of her eye: a big tabby cat had just come out of the house and, after trotting down the steps, it had finally begun to run around in the snow. “… Monty?” The brown cat ignored her and kept on hopping here and there, trying to capture some snowflakes without any success. She gulped loudly, then opened again her mouth. “Monty, is it really you?” Again, the animal didn’t notice her and went on with its task; Sara decided to take a last chance and then she would have gone home. “C’mere, old sport!” she finally shouted, the voice a bit trembling but full of hope all the same. The tabby lost immediately all of its interest in chasing the snowflakes, pricked up its ears and let out a confused meow: its gaze was curious, but it still didn’t trust her. The girl let out a deep sigh and repeated the same words, then crouched down and tried to call the cat with little kisses and drumming fingers on the gate: the animal finally approached her, sniffing her hand and letting her scratch the soft skin behind its ears. That last gesture made the cat lower its defenses: purring loudly, Monty crawled nimbly into her lap and began to knead on the fabric of her coat.   “L-look at you…” she started to sob “I left you when you were just a scrawny kitty, an-and n-now… you’re so big, and so fluffy – and yet you didn’t… you didn’t forget me” Monty rubbed itself against her, and Sara pulled him into a tight hug, burying her tear-stained face into its soft fur. All of a sudden, it seemed that her problems could wait for her a little bit longer.
And if I seem to be afraid To live the life that I have made in song It’s just that I’ve been losing so long
“Montyyyy! How many times have I told you not t-” a deep voice came from the house’s entrance, then stopped abruptly “Oh, hello” Sara immediately put the cat on the ground and got up, drying her eyes with a sleeve of her coat. “H-hello... I-” she croaked, then cleared her throat “Actually, I was goin’ away… Uhm, happy Christmas and have a great evening, ‘bye” Not even wanting to hear his response, the girl started to walk away but was instead stopped by the man. “Wait! I… I think I know you – and Monty surely does, he never trusts strangers” he finally approached her with a smile, but winced when he came face to face with her “… Sara?” The girl finally looked at him and startled when she recognized none other than Giacomo Vannini, her father’s best friend. “That’s you, right?” he asked but didn’t wait for an answer: instead she felt herself being swept into a tight hug, the tears already resuming to form in her eyes. “I can’t believe it, after all this time… it’s been five years, right?” “… yeah” Giacomo finally released her from his embrace and looked at her intently. “You let your hair grow… you already were pretty, but now – look at you, you’re a woman” “How’s life been treating ya and Teresa? Good, I hope” Sara quickly changed topic, hunching her shoulders “Oh, of course the same goes for Vittorio, Caterina and Carola” “It’s all good, thanks” the man gave her an affectionate pat on the back “Teresa and Caterina went grocery shopping for tonight’s last preparations, I’m goin’ to pick Carola up from Sea-Tac in a couple of hours and Vittorio’s driving from Vancouver” “It’s nice to hear that you guys are all together” she gave him a little smile, while Monty demanded her attention by rubbing itself between her legs – he succeeded in doing so, because she picked him up and he was finally able to give her little nudges with its head.  “But what about you, Saruccia? You alright? Are you studying? Working?” “Both – I’m working at a record store, it helps with the rent and University expenses” “That’s good to hear – you live alone?” “Nope, with a, err-a couple of friends” “Wonderful, it’s no good to spend everyday without friendly faces around you” She nodded, and he interpreted that gesture as a permission to go on with his inquiring. “You got a boyfriend too, right?” “… what?!” “I’m not asking for my son, I swear it!” he raised his hands in defense “Just pure curiosity” “Well, I-I’m not with anybody” “… guys in this city must be seriously blind, I’m speechl-Accidenti, che cafone sono stato!” he abruptly facepalmed “Non ti ho neanche invitato dentro – please, come inside! Be my guest” The girl immediately felt the blood freeze in her veins; she shook her head, politely refusing his invitation. “I left it exactly as it was, c’mon! Oh, and by the way: you should totally stay for dinner, that’d be a huge surpris-” “I don’t think that’d be a good idea” she interrupted him “I… I can’t go inside, and I don’t want to – had enough surprises for today” Giacomo nodded: “I can understand, I’m sorry if I pushed you…” “No hard feelings, Giacomo; I know you were just trying to be nice… as usual” she took a deep breath and, after giving Monty a last scratch under its chin, she put it on the ground. “You know what? I’ll take Monty’s carrier out and you can take him at home with you, ok?” “What? No, wait! And what should I tell my flatmates?” “That you ran into an old friend of yours who can’t care about his cat anymore, so he has entrusted you with this task” “Monty in my loft? No way, he’d go out of its mind in 5 minutes, I’m telling ya – he’s used to living here, and I don’t even have a garden… it’d be cruel” she gave Giacomo a sympathetic smile, patting him on the shoulder “We’ll see each other soon, it’s a promise” “You sure? I don’t want you to disappear for another five years” “I won’t, I swear” she sighed for the umpteenth time “Give my best to Teresa, Vittorio and the girls – and have a merry Christmas” “You too, sweetheart; God knows you deserve it more than all of us” the man gave her another tight hug and then let her go. Biting her lower lip, Sara waved goodbye and disappeared around the corner.
I stopped my dreaming I won’t do too much scheming these days These days
It was a matter of seconds: that familiar sensation of being followed immediately overwhelmed her. The girl started to run, suffocating at each step she took but not stopping to regain her breath – maybe this time her heart would have finally ceased to beat, allowing her to experience the sweet embrace that was tailing her ever since that damned July… <Maybe my time has finally come> she pondered, sliding against a cold wall and fumbling with her headphones; she removed her gloves and her trembling hands immediately became red, but she didn’t mind – she still couldn’t feel anything. When her fingers finally found the ‘play’ button and pressed it, her breath returned regular; she felt the crisis washed away by the music, her mind slowly reprising to function, but her body deadly tired. She closed her eyes and let the snowflakes gently touch her face – the face of a young woman, troubled but alive.
Please don’t confront me with my failures I had not forgotten them

the truth
notes: this is for @its-all-for-this-family! ria, this is an idea i had last summer and i wanted to give you it as a present then but apparently it wasn’t in the stars (read: a ridiculously busy schedule and numerous drafts getting mysteriously deleted off my desktop). i hope you like it! i’ll edit this over once and post it on ao3 when it’s finished. this is the first part of two (i think).
summary: stan and dipper bonding! ft. a backwards g4g reveal, a fishing trip, and casual toying with the idea that a few years isn’t enough to completely fix a broken sibling relationship.
The minute the kids hop off the bus, something is wrong.
Stan Pines isn’t quite sure how he knows this. Maybe it’s the fact that they hug Ford before they get to him. He chalks that up to plain old jealousy - childhood feelings that still refuse to leave, even after all this time.
Maybe it’s just how different the twins look. Stan can still remember how small they’d looked getting off the bus for their first summer in Gravity Falls. But fifteen seems to suit them.
Mabel is braces-less, and smiling so wide that Stan is sure her teeth are gonna pop outta her mouth. He hides a chuckle when he realizes that she’s gained a good three inches on her brother since the last time he’d seen her. Dipper must be just ecstatic about that.
He’d grown too - just more out than up. The kickboxing lessons that Stan had gotten him for Christmas had really paid off. Who knew there was actually muscle inside those scrawny little twigs?
Maybe it’s the drastic difference between the kids’ attitudes towards him. Mabel leaps into his arms, gushing about every single thing she has planned for tonight, all the people she has to see, and just how fun this summer is going to be, while Dipper opts for a tight smile and a side-hug.
Sure, he’d always needed more time to adjust than his sister, but it continues for longer than Stan can explain.
Mabel plays a mixtape full of Top 40 hits in the car - she calls them “bangers”, Stan chooses to ignore this - and Dipper does nothing but chew on a pen and stare out the window. He has no reason to be embarrassed about singing, given the zombie fiasco from that first summer, the many times he’d caught him wailing after a shower, and the fact that Ford gradually begins to belt along to every song. But he stays silent anyways.
Dinner is just as bumpy. In an effort to break down whatever wall Dipper has put up, Stan breaks out a classic: 1000 Yuk ‘Em Ups: Uncle Approved! Mabel rewards him will pitying laughs and Ford rubs his temples, but Dipper doesn’t give him so much as a groan. He picks at his vegetables and keeps dangerously quiet, like he’s sitting on a bomb and waiting for it to explode, but Stan is the only one who can see it.
Stan tries one last time to reach out. It’s late, and quiet save for the gentle sounds of crickets outside and the occasional hoot of a nearby owl. It would probably be noisier when Soos and Melanie got done visiting her parents in Portland, but for now, it was calming.
He’s already half-carried, half-nudged Mabel to bed, carefully laying her between her numerous stuffed animals and her behemoth of a pig. She’d passed out on the couch not long after dinner, her scrapbook from the previous summer sprawled across her lap.
Ford has retreated to the basement, after muttering something about researching “gremlins” or “goblins” (or was it “gargoyles”?).
Stan walks into the living room, where Dipper is sitting on the floor, reassembling the journal Ford had given him at the end of the summer last year. It had become a yearly tradition; this was the third one so far.
However, although the two shared a love of the paranormal, it was clear that they didn’t share the same rigidness for journaling.
Unlike Ford’s precise paragraphs and intricate illustrations, Dipper’s journal was filled with frantic chicken scratch and leaking photographs, papers, and who-knows-what-else stuck in there with scotch tape and hope.
Stan settles into the armchair and turned on the TV, prepared for whatever garbage Gravity Falls Public Access had in store for him. Tonight, it was a marathon of a show called Post-Teen Mom, that centered around four pregnant women in their early twenties who all hated each other. He could excuse the ridiculous name and premise for the petty insults and nonsensical cat fights.
Every now and then, he would sneak a glance to Dipper’s project on the floor. The kid, along with his journal, sat in the middle of a fan of extraneous material that had been carefully removed, labeled, and placed on the floor, awaiting its return to the book. With every turn of a page, Dipper would pick out two or three pieces of related evidence, squeeze too much leftover glitter glue on the page and press them into the book with the heel of his palm as quickly as possible, resulting in the golden paste running down his forearm.
Stan snorts to himself. Dipper’s unnatural affinity for weirdness came from Ford and his unnerving methodical tendencies were certainly from his father, but the messy, determined creativity? All Stan.
Come to think of it, Mabel had gotten that from him too. He hadn’t noticed it at first, given how, well… out there Mabel’s artistic tendencies could be at times.
But Stan could remember a myriad of creative endeavors from his childhood that would be right up the twins’ alley - tiny caricatures he’d tried to sell one summer on the boardwalk, wide sandcastles big enough to run away to, home movies he’d made with Ford and -
Carla.
The thought of her hits him like a bullet. The snicker she’d let out every time she got him to blush, her hand gripping his while they strolled down the beach, a single carnation dotting the sea of brown curls…
Stan doesn’t think about her much nowadays, which means that every time he does, it hurts that much more.
He attempts to shake it off as quickly as it came. He had been in love with a girl and wanted to start a life with her and that just wasn’t in the stars for them. So what? It’s not like it had been the end of the world. It had barely had an effect on what his life had become. It certainly wasn’t the cause of the tears brimming in his eyes right now -
No. Stan took a deep breath, and exhaled with a grunt. Pfft. Who cared? Not him.
At least he and Dipper had something in common other than pervasive stubbornness.
Speaking of which…
He’s been waiting for Dipper to say something to him, but to no avail. The boy had either been too focused on his work (or at least pretending to be) to say a single word.
Stan turns his eyes back to the TV, where surprise guest Betty Anne “The Stomper” Lewis was about to unleash hell on Rachel-But-It’s-Pronounced-Rachelle. If Dipper wouldn’t talk, Stan would start the conversation…
…right after this fight.
But he doesn’t get the chance. He’s about to try to predict the outcome of the brawl (“The Stomper” had longer nails than her adversary, but she was also more pregnant) when Dipper gathers his materials and walks to the stairs.
He’s halfway up when Stan stops him, having followed him to the base of the stairs without much thought.
“Kid, hold up.”
Dipper turns around slowly. It’s a turn Stan had done many times in his own life, backed into a corner with his hands up. Stan had Dipper exactly where he wanted him.
But unlike Stan, who’d always accompanied the turn with a scowl and a string of obscenities, Dipper seems emotionless. He stands still on the step, journal wrapped in his arms, waiting for Stan to speak.
Stan crosses his arms and squints up at him.
“You haven’t been actin’ like yourself.”
The second the words leave his mouth, they feel wrong. And they must be, given the nearly manic expression that suddenly washes over Dipper’s face. “Not acting like myself?” he asks.
“Grunkle Stan, I’m not the one here who’s still acting like they’re a completely different person!”
Dipper’s tone is scathing, his hands are shaking, and his words reek of truth.
A fire has been lit in his eyes, one that Stan is all too familiar with.
It’s the same blazing glare behind Dipper yelling at Mabel to close the portal. It’s the same furious disappointment Ford had served him after learning about the fate of his science fair project. It’s the same devastating fury that another teenage boy had hurled at him at a unsettlingly similar conversation thirty years ago.
Betrayal.
Stan is sure that thirty years ago, he had an amazing reply to the accusation but now…
He’s lost his edge.
When Dipper realizes that Stan doesn’t have anything to say, he turns and quickly walks up the stairs.
Stan floats to his armchair and sinks down into it.
This morning, he thought there was something wrong with Dipper. But it was his old mistakes, back to haunt him again.
Because there was no way that Dipper didn’t know that Stan was -
Shit.
