"Butcher this" "Butcher that" YES! ABSOLUTELY, WE LOVE BUTCHER!!

But what about Reaper? Leonard "Bones" McCoy? Skurge? Éomer, Marshal of Rohan? Julius Caesar, Caesar, Cupid, Kor, Mael? A random star wars cameo? Danny Gallagher?

We need to give Karl Urban our love all around.

If you wouldn't take him at his

And his

And his

And his

And his

And his

Then you don't deserve him at his

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk

So, there's a thing I've noticed about Karl Urban's Leonard McCoy.

But it's better starting from the beginning.

I found this gif from the third film, and I've noticed that Bones wears a ring - but since when? And he wears it even in the other film? It's a mistake?

The answer is yes, and no.

(Probably some screenshots won't be so easy to see, sorry for that)

Star Trek 2009

At the start of the film, when he's a broken man and a cadet he doesn't wear any rings.

Or, until he wears the red uniform. Because right after he puts on the classic blue uniform in which we see him like for always.

He starts wearing this silver ring, flat on top, and wears it until the end of the movie.

Star Trek: into darkness

Again, at the start of the film he doesn't wear any rings, most because of the disguise he's wearing, I think.

(It can be seen here, but I assure you he isn't wearing any rings)

Then, when he's again in his blue uniform, he wears it again, but this time a different type of ring.

This like, all flat? I don't really know what it's called. Sometimes more silver, sometimes almost black, it depends on the light.

Star Trek: Beyond

Here, from the beginning he wears the ring.

(I know the photo is dark, but zooming on the hand you'll see the reflection of the low light on the ring)

And, he wears for the rest of the film.

And at the end, when we have that much bro moment between him, Jim and Spock? Well.

It's hard to say because his hands are not shown (the typical close up shot) or it's his other hand, which he uses to hold his drink and we have a full picture, his hand is in his pocket. So yeah, I can't really say if he's wearing a ring or not.

But he wears a necklace, never seen before.

It can't only be a coincidence, but something planned.

A theory is that Karl Urban decided to make a tribute to DeForest Kelley (the original Bones), who usually wore a ring on his pinkie all the time. That ring was his mother's wedding ring, and after her death he used to always wear it because it was his only memory of her - this thing has given quite a few problems in the production of the first film, because Gene Roddenberry wanted him to remove it but the answer he received was "Or me and the ring, or neither."

But honestly, I think it's only a part of it. Yeah you do it for an accurate reproduction, but. Why doesn't he wear it every time? And why at the end there's that necklace (that thinking about it he could have always worn it under the uniform, but at the beginning of the first film he doesn't wear a necklace)?

I have only questions, not answers.

To boldly go, pals.

So as I was listening to the soundtrack of "Subspace Rhapsody" (which I will rant post about later) I saw the season 1 soundtrack for SNW pop up and I clicked on it cause I love listening to soundtracks.

Y'ALL I WAS NOT PREPARED FOR WHAT I SAW.

Instead of the boring mundane names I've come accustomed to with soundtracks (which usually just have something to do with what characters are doing in certain scenes) the names of this soundtrack are PHENOMENAL.

Here's some of my personal favourites:

LIKE THE PUNS?? AMAZING?? THE MUSIC??? STUNNING.

My personal favourites are "Put a T'Pring On It" and "Don't Leave in Uhurry" because those two got the biggest laughs out of me when I read them.

[in the hours before Kirk and Spock's bonding ceremony]

Kirk: I'm going to go pick up the wedding cake!

Spock: Perfect. While you do that, I'll check on the ring bear.

Kirk:

Kirk: You mean ring bearer, right?

Spock:

Kirk:

Kirk: Look me in the eye and tell me you're not bringing a dangerous wild animal to our wedding...

Theory 1: Karl Urban just really enjoys being banished from large tracts of land

Theory 2: Grima Wormtongue is Bones' ex-wife

Hey everyone, so about two or so years ago I transcribed the entirety of The Ring of Soshern by J. Guttridge from an old PDF of the Alien Brothers publication. I still have it, I posted it on Ao3 (where it was immediatly taken down for copyright infringement) and then never did anything with it again.

Anyways, here’s the link to the random Google doc I did it in. Pls nobody send the police after me, I’m just posting this as an option for anybody who didn’t want to have to mess around with pdf copies, and just want something easily readable.

Enjoy :3
