Jim and Spock are both feeling lost. Can they find what they need in each other?

This is basically the Star Trek Beyond movie, but from a Spirk perspective. There will be some scenes from the movie, with maybe some minor alterations, but also my interpretation of what happened in-between.

Words: 1559, Chapters: 1/?, Language: English

So I managed to finish the first chapter of this story at the weekend as well. Woo! Huge thanks to @itreallyisthelittlethings and @semperama for their assistance. <333

Reblogging this again because I finally read this and it’s SO GOOD YOU GUYS and it doesn’t have nearly enough kudos or comments for how awesome it is. There’s only one chapter so far and it’s already my favourite fic set during Beyond.

I just read this too (thanks for reblogging @elisa-pie, I’d totally missed it).  So good!  Go read now, we’ll wait.

Donald Trump’s campaign is like the ultimate in white male privilege

if a Black man reacted to insults and detractors the way Donald Trump does, he’d be called “angry”, “irrational”, and “uncivilized”

if a woman reacted that way she’d be called “catty”, bitch”, and “emotional”

but when a white guy does it people say he’s “honest”, “direct”, and has “guts” 

no other demographic can get away with publicly acting like a two year old who just woke up from a nap more than white dudes

there’s wide public acceptance and even admiration for this kind of behavior when the right kind of person does it

Tagged by: @zjofierose​ (thank you!!) ❤ ❤ ❤   I don’t actually have 20, but several of mine are looooong.

1) “What about the Pack-and-Play?”

2)  Chris is panting against the table, the muscles of his back flexing with
each gasp as he tries desperately to hold his spread legs still and not
squirm against his bindings.

3)  The ship is limping.

4) He doesn’t even realize he’s doing it, Zach thinks, watching Chris’ thumb rub idle circles on his leg as he is reading.

5)  Zach woke abruptly with several thoughts at once: 1) he was being
spooned from behind by someone with a persistent hard on; 2) Chris was
bi, and used to topping with women (one would presume), and would
probably want “his turn” at some point; 3) Zach didn’t bottom… it
wasn’t a religious thing, but he had his reasons, mostly to do with how
damned vulnerable it made him feel with relative strangers; 4) they
probably should have talked about this before stumbling into bed
earlier.

6) “You ready for the big day?” Chris asked Nathan in hushed tones,
changing his diaper as the first blush of dawn filtered through the
window. 

7) Zach was back in Tour Guide mode, starting in on stories of cast members for Glass Menagerie having picnics in the park. 

8)  “Fuck,” Chris muttered as he stubbed his toe in the dark.

9)  The phone only buzzes once, vibrating against the wood of the nightstand.

10)  C: So, Valentine’s Day is coming up.

11) “Coffee?” the waiter asked.

12)  The first time it happens, it’s completely by accident.

13) “Any luck?” Chris asked when Zach wound his way back through the crowd to where he’d left Chris and their luggage.

14) The music was loud, pounding against his temples, and Zach hadn’t seen anyone he knew for at least a half hour.

15)  “It is an illogical turn of phrase.”  “I know, Spock.”

16)  The wind blew my mother’s dress around her legs, and she quickly reached up to secure her hat before the gust tugged the wide brim, giving it wings.

17)  I smoothed the creases from the brown paper that Nana’s package had been wrapped in, spreading it on the kitchen table.

18)  He was late.

19) I drove directly home.
