Pirate Captain James T. Kirk 🏴‍☠️✨

I for sure didn't have a Mcspirk pirate AU in my list to draw this year, but kaiidth am I right?

@avid-mreower and I got infected with the pirate brainworms and are living our best life with it ☠️💜

Go look at their Triumvirate Pirates here!

*Headcanon about Jim's earrings, first sketch, timelapses and photo inspo after the cut 👇 (CW: character's death)

The earrings: Pirates always tried to carry some gold on their person, usually choosing to wear it in small hoops. This was very practical for many reasons, one being because, if they washed up somewhere unknown, they would have something to bargain. Or, if they didn't survive, something to pay for the funeral (together with other superstitions and beliefs, like using that gold to pay for your trip to the Underworld and so).

I thought this would especially fit Jim because he has the firm belief that he will die alone. He's a tactician so he prepares ahead, the gold earrings can also be handy if he gets lost during some of his shenanigans, and they look cool as hell, so they're the perfect solution.

So when he dies, if someone finds his corpse, they can use them to give him a proper burial if they want to, but he doesn't really mind if whoever finds them keeps them, because they need it or even if it's just because they're made of gold.

At least he gets to become part of a treasure someone found, become part of the adventure and discovery that he loves so much 💜✨

*And here's the photo that started all the pirate brainworms (gonna ignore it's not a pirate, it is now).

In 2024, scientists discovered seven new species of frogs in Madagascar. Because the whistling sounds these species made resembled the sounds of communicators from the Star Trek universe, it was decided to name the species after the seven legendary captains: Boophis kirki, Boophis picardi, Boophis siskoi, Boophis janewayae, Boophis archeri, Boophis pikei, and Boophis burnhamae.

So, meet the Boophis kirki I needle-felted for this year's Winter Fandom Kombat! ✨

'the ultimate computer' aka uncannily precise vision of the future in which starfleet wants to replace jim with ai but spock and bones are not having it

I am going feral at all the times ai is being a menace in this show and how accurate it is to the bs present we're living in

[cursedtrekedits]

idk if you did this already but could you please change spock and kirk's lirpas from amok time to yaoi paddles

you say “idk if you did this already” as if this is something that would naturally occur to me

[daftmooncretin]

spock’s room decor is actually fucking bonkers. The weapons??? the big red velvet curtain??? like ok phantom of the opera go crazy.

for reference jim’s room has some photos and a plant so we can surmise this is uniquely a spock being a dramatic weirdo thing

[raymons-monsters]

‘Where do you estimate we belong, Ms Keeler?’

‘You? At his side, as if you’ve always been there and always will.’
