ARE YOU KIDDING ME ARE YOU SERIOUS ARE YOU ACTUALLY SERIOUS
Even the book’s cover is perfect 💛💙
Star Trek is a show where:
Spock was attacked by a flying pancake
Spock got so horny he was attacking people
an alien stole Spock’s brain
a flower ejaculated on Spock and made him high
Spock is a vegetarian pacifist who will punch anyone who threatens someone he cares about
the nasty space virus made Spock cry
Spock pretends to have no feels but gets grumpy when Kirk beats him at chess
evil Spock had a beard
so don’t pretend a show has to be “real,” “gritty” and “dark” to have a message that can change the world
Kirk: Oh, I know where this is going!
Spock, appearing next to them during a freeze frame: The Captain had absolutely no idea where this was going. Saying they did was but a ruse to make them seem more intelligent.
Kirk, also appearing in the freeze frame : Now Spock, if you’re gonna use that mindmelt ability to make my memories sound less epic we’re gonna stop doing it
Oh hay so, nifty tip for dealing w/ invasive irrational thoughts.
Pretend Spock is standing by your shoulder telling you it’s “illogical” or some shit.
Getting invasive thoughts that everyone you know secretly hates you? Spock is there to be all “That is statistically improbable Captain, several of your friends have told you many times that they enjoy your company.”
Paranoid that you’re going to get hit by a car every time you walk by a road? Spock is walking beside you, calmly explaining that “You are mostly like not going to be hit by a car. You’re walking on the sidewalk, and there are no cars in sight.”
Is someone not messaging you back right away, and part of you is terrified that they’re dead in a ditch somewhere? Spock is there to be all “Captain, your friend is currently at work. They’re probably helping a customer, not dead.”
Seriously, I spend a lot of time pretending that Spock is blandly telling me why all of my irrational, invasive, and paranoid thoughts probably aren’t true.
“Spock, someone’s watching me.”
“Captain, you are alone in your apartment. Everything is fine.”

Fanfic: And they were soulmates
Me in the dead of night, red-eyed, with three assignments due the next day: Oh my god, they were soulmates
I want to see how many of us there are :)
Jim *struggling with someting* : Dammit that’s gonna be complicated ! Spock, could you give me a hand ?
Spock *embarassed and shocked* : In front of everyone captain ??
The Way Kirk Looks at Spock
The bottom left look has to be the most devastating of all. The little lip bite, the chin tilt, and the half-lowered eyelids combine to make it literally combustible. Spock never had a chance. No wonder he went to Gol, and no wonder he came back.
Find yourself a SO who looks at you the way Kirk looks at Spock on these
