It's incredible that these are screenshots from the cultural phenomenon science fiction series Star Trek and not some Space Themed low-budget BDSM porno.

pairing: senator!coriolanus snow x baker!reader warnings: fluff , slight ooc!coriolanus snow, i was listening to laufey so soft coriolanus snow hehehe authors note: so sorry for the late post pls ive been so busy w life </3 summary: prompt is from this request ! i hope i do u justice anon <3

the smell of the freshly baked goods fills his nose as he enters a beloved bakery in the heart of the capital. coriolanus has made it a habit to come to your bakery after every media engagement for his campaign.

he always bought the rich chocolatey brownie topped with a raspberry either for his grandmaam or for himself—always finding a way to support the beautiful girl who runs the bakery.

he has admired the owner of the baker since the early days of his academy. as snowflakes dance through the air, blanketing the capital in a soft, white layer, your bakery stands as a warm, welcoming haven. coriolanus upon seeing the cozy scene inside, decided to do a pit stop to avoid the strong wrath of the snow storm.

the windows are fogged with condensation, offering glimpses of the cozy interior lit by the gentle glow of pendant lights. the bell rang as he entered the shop. the aroma of freshly baked bread, sweet pastries, and rich coffee mingles with the scent of cinnamon and vanilla, creating an irresistible invitation to coriolanus.

he took a moment to appreciate the comfortable environment of the bakery; candles gleaming, wooden tables and countertops to match the white framed countertops, and baked goods encased in glass.

behind the counter, you stood. your eyes, a warm, inviting shade, locked onto his, and time seemed to slow. your smile was soft and genuine, lighting up your face and radiating a kindness that made his heart skip a beat. it was as if the storm outside had ceased to exist, leaving only the two of you in this perfect, serene moment.

ever since then he had locked eyes with you, he couldn't stop thinking about you. the way you light up every time you see him enter your shop. you have memorized his order by now, he was also consistent with his brownie and black coffee.

one late evening, coriolanus decided to help you clean up after the last customer left. it wasn't unusual for him to be the last customer there, you always were grateful for him.

you were putting away coffee cups on the table when you stopped to look at the snowy atmosphere outside your shop.

the lack of noise filled his ears and he stopped cleaning the countertop to look if you were alright, "are you okay darling?" he asked softly. coriolanus often called you pet names and to be honest you didn't mind it at all.

you didn't look back at him and continued admiring the snow gently falling, "you know every time it snows i think of you," you admitted to him.

he walked to you to admire along, "why is that?" he curiously asked as his heart fluttered at your declaration of thinking of him.

"it reminds me of when we first met, i was setting up the sign outside the store when I slipped on a frozen concrete and you caught me. " you reminisced

"you're honestly my knight and shining armor" you joked as you looked up at him, suddenly right beside you. he was already looking at you and you noticed this longing look on his face and it made your heart skip a beat. he was way too gorgeous to be looking at you like that.

all of a sudden you got shy and looked away, "why are you looking at me like that snow" you said flustered. he smiled softly at the change of your attitude

"like what rose?" he places his finger under your chin to make you look at him. the eye contact was different with him this time. he was looking at you with an intense, almost aching desire in his eyes. it tugged at your heart and you couldn't help but look between his lips and his eyes. longing for his lips to connect with yours.

and like he read your mind, he tilted your chin up and leaned in. time seemed to stop as your lips finally met, a kiss that was both gentle and passionate, filled with the unspoken emotions that had been building between you. it was a kiss that spoke of longing, desire, and the sweet relief of finally giving in to what you both wanted.t

gamesters of triskellion is not one of the best og star trek episodes, but it is the only one where kirk wears an "obedience collar" so that gives it points

Aw, it’s not surprising that Bones could immediately tell that something was wrong with Spock. I mean, yes, they’re trapped 5000 years in the past on a frozen planet, but when did it ever stop Spock from looking for their Captain? LOL

The Enterprise D goes to Triskelion

A quick attempt at stylized line art. Everyone should have the opportunity to wear this Kirk classic from the episode "The Gamesters of Triskelion."

RIP to Riker's right hand, he's just too big for the canvas. Drawing without gladiatorial trappings beneath the cut.

More aerodynamic this way. For the record I tried to give them their respective luscious pelts of chest hair but couldn’t get it to stylistically match. Smooth as an android’s bottom, eh Data?

I will say that The Gamesters of Triskelion is great for the scenes of Kirk's guilt, but it's interesting to see this parallel side by side. In the first scene, he is intervening on Uhura's behalf, but Kirk's initial plan is to use his authority to talk to the Providers in order to put a stop to everything instead of partaking in their game. Galt is the one who says Kirk ought to take the punishment and Kirk doesn't fight him on this or try to plead again. He accepts it.

Later, after asking Shahna more about the Providers and their system, she reveals too much and is punished by the Providers for it. Kirk attempts to plead with the Providers, first for them to stop, then to shout, "I'm responsible!" (echoing his original words to intervene for Uhura and his responsibility to the crew as captain), "It was my fault" (recalling also that, as captain, he both authorized and selected the landing party), and end with "If you want to punish someone, punish me." The last two phrases are things he did not say earlier when intervening for Uhura (although he has certainly blamed himself for crew deaths before in the series, The Apple and Obsession immediately come to mind).

To see Kirk ask for punishment outright is painful to see, even though he is doing it out of a compassionate need to spare Shanhna and it fits with his previous behaviors. It's painful in that it is a (great) reversal of his authority and reveals it to be hollow at its core. He's a starship captain, said to be the youngest so he's exemplary and distinguished, yet he's begging to be punished because his authority ultimately means nothing outside the Federation, especially when contact with the Enterprise is lost. But in begging for punishment, Kirk is also falling right in line with the Providers' system. Disobedience is to be punished, hence the obedience collars to keep the thralls in line. Anything that goes against the Providers' wishes is to be punished. This compassion is ultimately something that saves him as compassion interests the Providers after the aggression they have cultivated in the thralls, yet if this occurred in the arena, Kirk would merely be playing out another fight for the Providers' entertainment, within the bounds of their system and according to the rules they put in place. Kirk, the same Kirk who will kill computers for ruling other people and aliens, who will violate the Prime Directive if a cult is found, is not immune to the circumstances of systemic abuse and cracks under it.
