Bones: *In beginning, encouraging Kirk and Spock to talk to the other about how they feel*
Kirk and Spock finally do confess they start getting lovey-dovey.
Bones: *Literally any time spirk cuteness happens in front of him*
(But instead of salad it's his work or alcohol)
I have to imagine that Kirk and Spock’s wedding was the biggest thing to happen in the quadrant that entire year! Everyone and their mother heard about the wedding announcement between the great captain James T Kirk and his first officer S’chn T’gai Spock. It must have been live-streamed or whatever the Star Trek equivalent of that is, humanity cheered and watched on excitedly, all Vulcan children probably got the day off school, this was framed in both their histories as a collective “second first-contact moment”. A bajillion Starfleet officers, captains, and admirals must have been in attendance to watch the ceremony and stay for the afterparty. Bones and Uhura stood as Kirk and Spock’s best man respectively, Pike officiated and cried many happy dad tears. In fact, countless tears were shed by the original crew of the enterprise and almost everyone in attendance (Bones denied the allegations but Scotty’s got photo evidence). Chekov got stupidly drunk at the after party along with a tipsy Sulu, who also managed to snap a quick photo of Spock and Kirk looking incredibly flushed and happy sitting together
Punched into the friendzone
It's giving:
A personal favorite dynamic of mine is ‘I would die for you’ and ‘Die? Who said you could die!? No! I will drag you back from the afterlife my self!’. Like yes the ‘I’d die for you’ energy is great, but when the other person responds with basically a ‘like hell you will!’ It’s probably one of my favorite things.
HAVEN'T I GIVEN ENOUGH?
Star Trek: The Original Series 02x05 "Amok Time" x "Gilded Lily" by Cults
this clip from “The Apple” is literally just this post:
Star Trek can make as many new series and movies as they like, and still nothing will ever truly beat the golden awkwardness of this one shining minute of dialogue.
this is my first time on tumblr in 2025 and I had to wonder why but deep down i already know its bc I got a boyfriend💀
too busy being obsessed with a man who actually exists and knows i exist for once
As much as I love spirk nothing they ever said to each other was as blatantly homosexual as Q calling Picard "mon capitan"
no subtlety whatsoever
Fun fact, Paramounts list of iconic star trek tos episodes includes every single episode with a significant spirk moment
That ship rlly did save star trek from ending at the cancellation of tos
do i play dress to impress, scroll tumblr, or read a 135k word spirk fanfic based on the 2009 movie? difficult choices
i suck at tumblr bc the creature in my brain that's responsible for being in fandoms picks a new one to be my favorite every 2 months
Drabble request: spirk picnic
Thank you for the request!!! It was nice to write something cute and fluffy for Spirk 💖
“So. Spock. What do you think of your first picnic?”
Jim pulled out all the stops. A checkered blanket spread across the gentle slope of a grassy hill. A pile of bite sized cucumber sandwiches. Hell–he even replicated a wicker basket.
He watches nervously as Spock scans the meadow, taking in the bright flowers that dot its surface.
Spock clears his throat. “It is certainly an… idyllic use of time.”
Jim's mouth twitches into a frown. It's a non-answer. Is Spock enjoying himself? Is he bored?
The next words out of Jim's mouth are a panicked attempt to fill the silence. “Have you ever done cloud gazing?”
Spock turns his attention from the green field to Jim, a pointed eyebrow raised. “I can't say I have, Jim.”
Jim’s grin returns. “Well, it's another idyllic use of time, but I think you'll like it.” He has his doubts, actually, but he keeps them to himself. He's been so nervous around Spock recently–ever since they started this relationship, or whatever they'd call it.
He stretches his legs out in front of him and reclines, leaning his weight against his hands behind him. “Come here, Spock. Let me show you.”
Spock shifts until he's next to Jim and copies his posture. They're close enough that Jim can almost feel their fingertips brushing. He blushes, and it reminds him of falling in love as a young man again.
“That cloud there–” Jim shifts his weight onto one arm and points at a particularly fluffy cloud in the periwinkle sky. “Take a look. What do you see?”
He glances at Spock just long enough to see him blink. “That is a cumulus cloud.”
It startles a laugh out of Jim. “No, Spock–we aren't classifying them. What does it look like?”
“A cumulus cloud.”
“Hm.” Jim lets himself fall back until he's laying across the blanket. He points at another fluffy cloud. “I think that one looks like a cat's head. See the ears? What do you think?”
He's almost surprised when Spock lays next to him. Their shoulders brush, and Jim feels heat rise to his cheeks at the intimacy.
“That one is also a cumulus cloud, Jim.”
Jim feels his heart sink–just a little. He feels like he's failing Spock somehow. Letting him down.
Spock shifts next to him. Suddenly, Jim feels a cool hand resting on top of his. Fingers moving to tangle with his own.
Jim feels his heart skip.
“And I do believe,” Spock hums, “that it represents a sehlat much more than it does a Terran feline.”
This is literally Star Trek TOS fanfics coded
that's what fanfic is about I'm pretty sure?
Just something I did during my latest obsession.
CATS
AND
STAR TREK
I-
gay little space cats??!?!?!!
k/s is that ship where at first you don’t ship it but understand it, then you start feeling the ship and then, before you realize it, the two have taken over your thoughts, mind and maybe life.
I don’t even have a caption for this help me help me there are gay people in my head and they won’t leave
This is where the fun begins, Saavik!
I was talking to my friend and it hit me that there is SO much potential for a My Big Fat Greek Wedding Spirk AU.
Like dude. Just picture it.
30 something year old Spock trying to live his life and gain some autonomy from the bounds of Vulcan culture and trying to date Kirk in secret. Spock having a big ass family and the reason he keeps not telling Jim about his relatives is because he can’t keep track of them there’s so many. Instead of a bunch of cousins named “Nick” Spock has ten Vulcan relatives all named Selek. He secretly has no idea who is who (much less which part of the family they’re from).
The scene where they find out about Toula’s boyfriend and they’re like oh so YOURE Mr Pottery Class EXCEPT it’s “ah, so YOU must be Mr Transwarp Theory Logistics,” and Jim is like sweating bullets while Spock is internally hemorrhaging.
Jim having to undergo various Vulcan rituals and learning the language in order to impress Spock’s family.
Someone PLEASE write this. Like.
Jim: I’m sorry I didn’t ask to date your son, but sir, he’s THIRTY years old!
Sarek:
Jim: Alright. May I.. PLEASE ,, date your son???
Sarek: …
Sarek: no.
Jim: …
Jim: I’ll see you tomorrow Spock
(Bonus points for Sybok - or Michael- being like Hey Jim! We’re gonna kill ya!) ⌄ ⌄

All I ever do is use my art for silliness
Yes I wasted time actually making this can you believe we got Sanrio Star Trek before gta 6
Hey sooo What If I made a spirk fanfic (and included artwork) where I blended aos into tos in which the tragic death of Chekov leads to a new helmsman being transferred to the ship: one Gary Mitchell, former…friend of Captain Kirk’s. Events lead into tos “where no man has gone before” and later, some “conscience of the king” references (tarsus iv). Kirk is desperately trying to keep his past hidden and maintain his image in front of his crew, but these events are bringing everything he’s been pushing down closer and closer to the surface. Meanwhile, Spock is suspicious of this new crew member and…perturbed as he realizes he may not know Kirk as well as he thought he did after everything (Narada incident, Into Darkness, Beyond) they’d been through over the years.
