oh wow, this rules. I'm pretty sure it's exactly what's on constant replay in Kirk's mind every time he sees Spock exhibit his incredible strength and/or skill and is just staring at him like

This pon farr rq still remains my fav piece of them

Speaking of the pon farr constant replay, I really enjoy the fics where Kirk and Spock get to have an actual heart to heart post-"Amok Time" or McCoy and Chapel aren't there to bring Spock's instinctive reaction to a halt or something or other (the episode kind of begs for these, honestly).
But what I actually think happened after the kal-i-fee is that Spock didn't sleep at all that night despite being exhausted, and ended up lying awake in bed, thinking I could have killed him (consumed with guilt).
Kirk also had a sleepless night despite being exhausted, and ended up lying awake in bed, thinking he could have killed me (consumed with lust).
(It takes them three years to get around to talking about it ever again.)

#why are they so in sync??? #it鈥檚 hypnotic to watch #they really do just operate on the same wavelengths more often than not #they actually have multiple scenes where they demonstrate synchronized movement #and I have to wonder if that was intentionally done by Shatner and Nimoy #or if it just came naturally #bc I doubt the script or director would have asked for that (via @alderaan-babe)
Right? They do it all the time鈥攍ike the away team scenes where the team is sent in different directions except Spock, and the two of them stride off in sync with their shoulders brushing like bonded cats. And there's stuff like this little synchronized pivot at the end of (of course) "Amok Time":
youtube
The "on the same wavelength to an inimitable and nearly incomprehensible degree to other characters" dynamic is reinforced so much by the physical mannerisms of their entire bodies, not just faces and vocal performance. It's part of what really makes the ship to me.
(Despite all the Vulcan vs human mannerisms and complications, I really do feel that beneath the surface, Kirk/Spock is much more of a "birds of a feather" pairing than an "opposites attract" one.)
Obsessed with the way they move together

#spock being the only person on the bridge in 'arena' who immediately realizes kirk is testing for potassium nitrate and why#and having to explain that kirk's reinventing gunpowder to make the bamboo bazooka to everyone else while murmuring 'yes...yes...'#they truly are two of a kind and it's just constantly reinforced by how they /move/ when they're together#(no it's not the aspect ratio#like there are a ton of scenes where they're in a crowd but they are moving together or all but connected at the hip w/ others at a distanc#plenty of wide shots with them framed together and mccoy or others placed further away. sometimes cinematography is on purpose!)#also hilarious that david gerrold directed such nuclear rage at k/s shippers and then the actual episode is like this a;jkdfj;kfd#credit where it's due to nimoy and shatner tbh#gif#spock#james t kirk#star trek: the original series#tos: s2#tos: the trouble with tribbles#c: who do i have to be#c: i object to intellect without discipline#otp: the premise#tos: amok time#long post#leonard nimoy#william shatner#star peace#Youtube#alderaan babe#respuestas#not my meta

on amok time again: they really did "spock experiences primal alien mating drive and murder fuck ritual," and didn't even play with "and this is an excuse to see our prim and proper mr spock get sensual with a lady!". like he expends ALL of his hot dominating fantasy uncontrollable lust rage energy ON KIRK. they wrote that and had ONE chance to make spock have any scandalous, carnal housewife jerk off material romance they wanted with any sexy space woman in the universe, and they chose kirk. when he does interact with a woman he throws a soup at her
#huge shoutout to theodore sturgeon#he knew what people wanted#ive oversimplified this point for laughs. they brush lightly against this idea in that one scene with chapel#but that is very wistful#he takes all his fuck rage out on kirk#star trek#star trek: the original series#tos#star trek tos#st: tos#amok time#im just saying shit people have already said before im sure#but like with amok time all i can do is sit around thinking about things that happened and being newly astonished by them#spirk#k/s#the premise#spock#kirk

Amok Time being Chekov's first episode will never not be funny to me. It's his first day on the job and the first officer is in heat
