Planning a McSpirk Movie Night for my Bonespreg Fic- because obviously- how do we think it would go?

Setup: McCoy and Kirk have been doing this for a while, but now that McCoy and Spock share quarters, they're like, it wouldn't hurt to let him in on this, probably. They definitely don't want to leave him OUT! (And while they do have a living room, they watch the movies in McCoy's bed, for comfy)

Do they insist on showing Spock "a classic", like Dirty Dancing, The Princess Bride, The Neverending Story? Would they quote their favorite lines or talk through it? Do they shush Spock every time he tries to say something? DOES Spock try to say anything?

(I think he's the guy that asks what's about to happen even if it's a new to everyone movie and you have to say 'I don't know my guy you've seen the same amount of movie I have now shush')

Alternatively, would they go for a musical; would they have a great time watching Mamma Mia until "Slipping Through My Fingers" comes on and McCoy just has to leave, and Jim's like "yeah he does this every time we watch this." Or maybe they'd pick out Phantom of the Opera, thinking Spock would like that.

Maybe not thinking at all, they'd choose a comedy. Airplane, where the wit is fast as fuck, or a Mel Brooks movie, either way, they'd have to stop the movie because they'd have to keep explaining the jokes.

They could pick a super niche artsy movie they saw on a shore leave once that they're pretty sure they're the only people who've ever seen it but they thought it was great, and to their surprise, Spock's actually seen that one and does appreciate it.

More than anything, I think McCoy falls asleep before the movie is over no matter what. Could be his favorite movie, could be a very exciting movie, doesn't matter, he's snoozing.

Many possibilities

Still working on my Bonespreg fic- I just had them get "family quarters" and they're moving in together! Yay! But they aren't a couple yet, so Spock is living in the second bedroom. McCoy thinks they'll put the crib in his room so Spock won't have to move out after the baby is born. They don't know what I have in store for them yet. Anywho, I needed to draw their new quarters out for my own reference while I'm describing stuff, so here's this.

Doctor McCoy's (still rough) timeline in my fanfic:

-meets Jocelyn when they're 17, marries when they're 18 and have Joanna right away.

-He's attending school at Ole Miss and juggling family life. Jocelyn wants to go to school but feels like she can't with a baby

-they realize they married too young and are holding each other back, get divorced when they're 23

- Leonard gets an apartment in San Francisco where he's working through his specializations; his daughter stays every weekend

- dates nancy when he's 25 Canon compliant

-After Nancy, he gets into this really toxic relationship with a hot guy that's finishing his training as a Starfleet engineer

- Kirk becomes his roommate when he's 26; this is when Kirk is a lieutenant at the Academy. It's only for like a year and half but during this time they become friends, and Kirk convinces him to join Starfleet

-also Joanna calls him "Uncle Jim" 🥺

-Small Note: it's still important to note that McCoy never attended the Academy. He was already a doctor. This is TOS fanfic

- for a while, he takes exclusively planetside missions so he can up and leave for his daughter whenever, or so Jocelyn and Joanna can visit him

-This changes when he's 35, and Jim Kirk sends a request for him to accept a position as his Chief Medical Officer for the 5 year mission. Since Joanna is now in her teens, they agree as a family it would be OK for him to accept

-Well, a year and half into this mission that he's FUCKING REGRETING (not really, but sometimes) he gets pregnant

(Record scratch- "Yes, that's me, Leonard McCoy. You might be wondering how I got here.)

-So he gets pregnant by Spock by accident. Vulcan magic fuckup during a medical emergency (Don't tell them I called their baby a fuckup tho). He finds out 7-8 weeks ish, it's a total journey getting there because the poor dude thinks he's fuckin dying. And has an identity crisis because he's a doctor and can't even diagnose himself.

-He chooses to keep the baby and him and Spock decide it would be logical to sort of move in together platonically. As friends who are gonna be dads together? It's weird for them.

-His toxic ex shows up just to be a dick (and refit the enterprise for their baby)

-Spock and McCoy get together at like week 14, right at the beginning of his 2nd trimester. Jim has gray hairs.

-Joanna goes missing??? The enterprise goes on a mission to find her and she meets them halfway in a stolen shuttle. She missed her daddy and ran away during a field trip 🥺

-He loves watching Spock and Joanna interact irl because they've only met like twice on vid and it means a lot to him

-He realizes he LOVE loves Spock 🥺

I don't know what else yet. I haven't written half of this yet. I just got to the chapter where him and Spock are telling Jim about the pregnancy and Jim is like "No seriously, what did you actually get diagnosed with." Also these notes are mostly for me so i dont forget, I just don't keep inside thoughts inside, so enjoy 💗

Notes about Jocelyn and Joanna:

Jocelyn is a black woman, so Joanna is mixed, she's about 16/17. Joanna mostly looks like her mom, except she has her dad's gapped teeth and wide smile. She has aspirations of going into musical theater/singing/acting/performing arts, but it's kinda a Thing with the school because they're like "Your mom is the most badass architect (or something else I'm not sold yet) ever and your dad is already a legendary surgeon in his 30s, you should Aim Higher" and both Jocelyn and Leonard have to be like "no??? She's her own person." Just so you can visualize who they are.

There's also gonna be a moment where Spocks like, so are we going to raise it Vulcan or human and Leonard is like?? Hey I know your parents didn't expose you to both of your cultures but I have a daughter from two different backgrounds already, and you don't just choose to raise the kid one way OR the other. It's both. I'm not going to pretend our kid isn't Vulcan or isn't human. K? K.

And yes I made Bones a little younger than he is in TOS- by two years approximately, he's supposed to be 37 in the first episode, but that's only because I really wanted to make him be a teen dad and I wanted his daughter to be a teen. Arrest me if you must for youthening the old man

Mmmmm think I'm gonna make Jocelyn (In my Spones Mpreg fic) a famous astrophysicist or something and Spock a big nerd for her work so when he meets her it's like a huge shock. Like he's gone to her conferences, seen her speeches, read her papers. After the video call, he's like "you didn't tell me your ex wife Jocelyn was THE Jocelyn Treadway" and Dr McCoy is like "Sorry?? Why would I??"

I just think it'd be funny 🤷‍♀️

Here's a fanfic I'm writing for funsies in-between my BonesPreg fic! It's Spock going to talk to Doctor McCoy about his divorce with T'Pring - each chapter basically starts the same way but has a different ending, revealing the true identity of McCoy's spouse ✨️

I haven't spent a lot of time on it, it's really just something I'm doing for fun as I think of stuff, but I hope you enjoy it 💗
