there is always some kind of crazy bullshit happening to my friend mr spock. spores. mating cycles. amoeba thing. blindness. painful mind melds. brain theft. babygirl has been thru it all
I have no expectation that Spirk will be canon an any new trek (and frankly I don't think I'd even trust paramount to try), but I do still need them to make Kirk and Spock weird about each other. If they're not weird about each other, it ain't them.
Because they're so ridiculously devoted to one another, y'know? Devoted and, frankly, adoring. They like each other so much. They are each other's Most Important Person. That's just. canon. It's In The Text. There is no one like Jim Kirk for Spock, and no one like Spock for Jim Kirk. It is not possible for anyone else to fill that position in their lives.
They have got to let them be weird about each other.
janeway is the rawest fucking captain in all of starfleet. she taught a god manners and how to interact with low life forms like herself. she fucked amelia earheart. she rehabilitated five borg refugees to being individuals. she fucking killed fear itself. when those aliens were doing experiments on her crew she literally drives voyager inbetween two stars to fuck with them. she only drinks her coffee black as a power move. she has the only braincell on the starship “party bus” voyager. she threatened to kill not one Q but the entire fucking Q Continum if Q didnt stop fucking with her ship. she sticks to the prime directive in the delta quadrant when the fucking equinox couldnt. you watch janeway in a tank top when ur 11 years old and suddenly you feel your straightsona melting off. janeway was the fucking coolest
