people saying that the live action how to train your dragon is good actually because it's basically just a shot for shot remake of the original... then why the fuck would I watch it when I can just watch the (more visually stunning, not a blatant cash grab) original

Save me Star Trek Bloopers…. Star Trek Bloopers save me…

[eattacelerystalk-blog]

Hi! Ignore this if you don’t feel like it, but I wanted to check out some of the Star Trek tos novels. If you have any favourites/recs I’d love to hear them!!

Oooooh I love this kind of question!! This answer got really long… I tried to stay away from any information that couldn’t be found in the books’ summaries.

The Wounded Sky, and Spock’s World by Diane Duane. I love them, they rewired my brain a little bit, I still think about them months later.

The Wounded Sky has the crew of the Enterprise testing a new device, when the tests get interrupted by Klingons, things start to get weird and now the Enterprise crew have to fix the fabric of the universe itself.

Spock’s World- Vulcan is experiencing a crisis, Spock, Sarek, Amanda, and the Enterprise have to go back to the planet and hopefully help the planet’s council make a decision that could impact the whole Federation. Interspersed with moments from Vulcan’s history.

The Vulcan Academy Murders by Jean Lorrah Spock, James Kirk, and Dr McCoy arrive on Vulcan to bring a wounded crewman to Vulcan’s doctors to hopefully save his life, using a new procedure whose other patient is Spock’s mother. Accidents around the hospital prompt Spock, James Kirk, McCoy, and Sarek to investigate while Spock and Sarek try to navigate their precarious familial relationship. There’s a sequel, The IDIC Epidemic. Excellent if you like Sarek and Amanda, and wanted to see things get patched up between them and Spock.

The Price of the Phoenix by Sondra Marshak and Myrna Culbreath. This is about as notorious as Killing Time, it’s entirely bonkers and that’s the main appeal for me. It features the Romulan Commander from the TOS episode The Enterprise Incident. This one is a bit difficult to summarize without spoiling things, it’s older and the writing can be a bit opaque, but I thought it was fun.

More under the cut cos this post got out of hand.

The Joy Machine by James Gunn based on the script by Theodore Sturgeon. I just finished this one recently, and I really enjoyed it. It has that certain TOS era something and the author has a strong grasp on Kirk. It also gives Uhura some stuff to do, which I always like. It’s nice to see other members of the crew get some time. Kirk and the Enterprise are sent to the planet Timshel, previously a paradise for intellectual pursuits, the arts, a beautiful jewel of a planet which has gone dark. They haven’t accepted visitors for two years, and two agents from the Federation have been sent to investigate and haven’t been heard from since.

Uhura’s Song by Janet Kagan. A mysterious and fatal disease is plaguing the feline people of Eeiauo, the Enterprise is in orbit so their medical staff can help, but it isn’t looking good. Based on a secret shared between Uhura and an Eeiauoan diplomat, the Enterprise sets out to find a cure. Loved the aliens, Uhura and Spock get some really great moments together and separately, I would’ve loved to see this be a TOS episode or movie…

The Entropy Effect by Vonda N McIntyre. Spock has the worst time. The Enterprise is tasked with transporting a dangerous man, only for him to escape and commit murder! Spock’s got to try and find a way to fix what happened by going back in time.

The Pandora Principle by Carolyn Clowes. HOW DID IT TAKE ME THIS FAR INTO THE LIST TO REMEMBER THIS ONE!? I love this book. The Enterprise captures a derelict Romulan Bird of Prey and brings it back to Earth so Starfleet can investigate. Except it’s not so innocent as it seems, and the Enterprise has to go back to the planet Hellguard in the hopes that Spock’s protégée Saavik will remember something to prevent the Romulans’ plan from succeeding. Reading this did firmly convince me that Spock is Saavik’s parental figure, he is a girl dad.

The Final Reflection by John M Ford. Novel within a novel- the crew of the Enterprise come back from shore leave obsessed with a new book about the early days of the Federation’s relationship with the Klingon Empire, from the perspective of a Klingon Captain.

Yesterday’s Son by A.C Crispin. The Romulans attack a scientific outpost of Federation scientists studying The Guardian of Forever. Spock goes back in time to meet his son by Zarabeth. There’s a sequel for this one as well, Time for Yesterday. Really excellent Spock moments, his relationship with his son is difficult, Bones and Jim get to have a bit of fun.

I’m probably forgetting a bunch of books but this list is getting really out of hand.

Saw @artsymeeshee hospital sketches of the sea grunks and thought to myself, is this finally my time to write some brotherly angst for these two? The answer is yes. Short but sweet, please enjoy.

******************************

The first thing Stan becomes aware of is the noise.

A constant beeping right next to his ear. Loud and high-pitched and repetitive and unfortunately very familiar to an old grifter with bad luck like him. He would be a lot more annoyed with this sound if his last clear memory wasn't of roaring waters rushing past his ears, stealing his hearing and leaving nothing but white noise behind.

He'd rather take the beeping.

Next comes taste, which, ugh! He could have gone without that! The feel of scratchy sheets is not much better but it tells him that he is in one of the better hospitals. Believe it or not, the better the hospital, the scratchier the sheets. Ford should cool it with the mystical beasts and research what's up with that!

Speaking of Ford.

Stan keeps his breathing even as he slowly opens his eyes. The light has been dimmed in anticipation and he blinks a couple times at a ceiling that is painted a nondescript beige color. He looks at it for a moment and for some strange reason he suddenly feels a fierce urge to video call Mabel.

But first things first.

Stan slowly turns his head to the side which actually hurts. Don't they have him on the good stuff?

Just as he expected, there is his brother. Ford has squeezed himself into the same bed as Stan, facing his brother's prone form. Stan can't help but smile. His brother must have bullied the nurses into letting him stay. The bed is way too small for two grown men but somehow the genius has managed to practically fold himself into a compact ball, leaving enough room for all those fancy machines connected to the patient. One of his hands lightly rests against Stan's chest which he hasn't even noticed until now.

Ford's eyes are closed but he is mumbling under his breath, reciting one of his journal entries from memory.

Stan winces. His brother must be really rattled by this little mishap.

‘Great job giving the guy another thing to worry about, Stanley!’

“I think climbing into the hospital bed with the patient is against the rules, Sixer? You are not supposed to do that.”

He was going for levity and humor but his hoarse voice kinda ruins that.

Ford's eyes don't snap open. He doesn't gasp or jerk upright or anything like that. Instead he takes a shuddering breath and deliberately opens his eyes. They find Stanley immediately and there is not a hint of surprise in them. Stan wonders how long Ford has known that he's awake.

“Same to you,” Ford says and his voice is so flat it causes a shiver to run down Stan's spine.

“Hey, s’not like I planned for this to happen.”

“I would be very cross with you if you had planned falling overboard, Stanley.”

Ford's emotions still feel weirdly flat. He isn't even lecturing and scolding Stan for his reckless behavior, just presses his six-fingered hand against his chest and stares at him with those blank eyes.

“I'm alright.” Stan shifts so he can face his brother and, damn, those ribs are definitely cracked. He briefly wonders if that happened in the fall or whether someone had to do CPR on him and quickly decides that maybe he doesn't want to know. Close call. Much too close. “I'm alright, Ford,” he repeats as if that makes it true.

For the first time an emotion flickers through Ford's face. He narrows his eyes and for a moment Stan thinks he's angry but then a single tear runs down an unshaven cheek, immediately seeping into the pillow.

“I thought I lost you for good,” Ford whispers, voice tortured. “I couldn't find you. For the longest time. I looked and I looked and you were just… gone. I couldn't find you!”

‘Same to you,’ Stan echoes with a bit of a bitter edge, mind replaying thirty years of hunching down in a dusty basement in a matter of seconds.

But this is not about him and Stan is, no matter what some might want to tell you, not an insensitive asshole.

“You did find me,” he says. He doesn't actually know if that's true. The time after he fell into the ocean during that storm is still a bit of a mystery to him. All he remembers is the noise of the water and how cold he felt and a voice screaming his name, over and over, growing fainter with each wave crashing over his head.

But Ford needs some reassurance right now. And the best way to reassure Ford that Stan is alright is by proving his alrightness with a good, old Pines hug.

He lightly pulls at the hand on his chest and with a cut off gasp Ford immediately obliges, scooting closer until they are entwined with one another just like they were as kids when the nightmares became too much to remain separated by a bunk bed.

“You found me.” Stan repeats and ignores the tears soaking into his hospital gown.

‘That's what we do,’ he thinks with a content smile, eyes falling shut with exhaustion. ‘We always find each other again.’
