my number one favorite trope is and always will be:

captain james t. kirk: *does anything*

spock, immediately dialing amanda: mother. he has done it. again. a thing. i am experiencing an emotion. a human feeling. i do not know how to proceed. i cannot comprehend this man and his profound effects upon me. i have lost all control. i do not understand. i am emotionally compr-

Jim: *breathes*

Spock to Amanda:

Amanda:

They got Five Guys and then went for a walk :)))) they r on a date :)))))

Here’s another sketch dump of the bois. Featuring my favorite headcanon: the big bed.

Watching tng makes spirk so much funnier bcoz picard and riker have an actual heterosexual relationship between captain and 1st commander and can u imagine them doing the things spock and kirk do? Picard asking for a backrub from riker. Riker saying picard is literally infallible. Picard telling riker that he makes him believe in miracles.

this is such a good comparison to hold up, because riker cares so much about picard and is the quintessential loyal first officer. would die for him no question. thinks he’s the best captain in history. his loyalty to picard is why it’s so shocking when he gave the command to fire in “the best of both worlds.” and the respect goes both ways – picard calls him the best first officer in the fleet, trusts him implicitly, etc, etc, etc. and while i think most of us assume that riker is not heterosexual, he would never on his life offer picard a backrub.

#yeah this is the thing. tos genuinely doesn’t make sense unless you assume kirk and spock want to fuck each other#and the movies don’t make sense unless you assume they’re married (via @paramaline)

without friction we would float up into space

maybe you could be the friction that will keep me in my place
