Who's your star trek underrated duo, because I'm still sore about Dr David and Saavik.

Spock's best student and Kirk's nerd son?!! Adorable! Incredible!

They're both such Jocks but also Giant Nerds, both on and off the curly hair regime.

She's on the command path and he's a famed (slightly disgraced) scientist?!! They're made to be Kirk and spocks next generation, that's a captain and science officer right there.

I want to see her epic path to admiral with this absolute goof telling her biology facts while she fights klingons

#405

"I usually really like gender-bend fics in other fandoms as usually it's an exploration of how a story might change if the character is female or male in the same situations but in Star Trek I've noticed gender-bend fics, particularly male to female gender-bends, seem to be more about self-insert purposes. The biggest character I notice this with is Kirk who when gender-bent becomes overly emotional and defenseless in order for Spock or McCoy to swoop in and save her. If I wanted to read McCoy×reader or Spock×reader I would but I'd really rather read about how being a female would change Kirk's life in situations like Tarsus or how being a female would change people's veiw of Kirk's flirty and promiscuous behavior that's respected as a man but might be vilified as a woman.

Kirk literally doesn't even meet his son until the guys 20 and you think being a female just makes it biologically imperative that she raise whatever McCoy or Spock hybrid comes out? Jane/Jamie/Jasmine/whatever her name is would 100% get an abortion or adopt that kid out if the other option was losing the Enterprise, sorry, not sorry. Whatever Carol's male counterpart is, he's still going to raise David by himself.

Genderbend as I've experienced it has always been about exploring gender rolls and expectations and subverting them on occasion not how Spock would cradle your (sorry Kirk's) face while comforting you (sorry Kirk) from what the mean Admiral, who you're (sorry Kirk's) more then capable of telling to screw off, said to you (sorry Kirk).

I read gender-bend fics to break the status quo so the fact that Star Trek of all fandoms writes gender-bends that reinforce traditionalists values...wasn't it."

You know, I think "Wrath of Khan" is overrated, but at least it never tries to convince us that David Marcus is some kind of awesome badass sexpot chosen one.

Carol breaking up with Kirk and telling him to stay away from their child - part is Kirk, part is his job

Janet breaking up with Kirk and marrying someone else - part is him, part is his job

La'an telling Kirk she moved on - the connection is still there, she doesn't think she will ever stop having feelings for James Kirk, but she now knows that there are other people she can be her real self with, who see her, and she'd rather not pursue anything of a romantic nature with him - our jobs wouldn't permit it (she might serve as his first officer on the Farragut though, for more angst and lost chances; but she won't transfer with him back to the Enterprise. Una told her that even though she regretted never pursuing her feelings for Pike, she wouldn't change it because she could always be there for Pike, always be by his side, doing a job she loved)

(but also obviously them getting/wanting to get together and La'an dying is always a choice as well - from Kirk's POV this makes sense, from La'an's I don't want this...)

and Kirk just closing his heart off and dedicating himself to his job completely, stopping to want to form a relationship, which he thought he could have before, but apparently not

Love. You're better off without it, and I'm better off without mine. This vessel, I give, she takes. She won't permit me my life. I've got to live hers.

And he envies his brother because he could do that. He could have a family and a job he loved.

And then he encounters Khan Noonien-Singh (I'm using a dash because SNW!Khan should have a dash). He knows his legacy is genocide, torture, but also La'an - a woman he will always hold dear to his heart. The logical path would be to let the Starfleet know about Khan and let them deal with him, but instead, he gave him a chance to live. He found him a planet and didn't inform Starfleet that Khan Noonien-Singh was back. Because of La'an.

And then Khan is back. And his return reunites him with Carol and his son. And while he hadn't thought of her for years, the memories of La'an hit him with strength again. He rejected her for a life he thought he could have with Carol and their son. And his son is now a young man who doesn't know him, who hates him, and would like to see him dead. Because Carol asked him to stay away.

"If there are self-made purgatories, then we all have to live in them"

And Khan wants to kill him. Kirk wanted to give him a second chance but because he hadn't informed anyone, no one checked on the planet where Khan was sent to and never learned that the surface became almost inhabitable.

Khan wants to kill him and doesn't care how many other people die with Kirk. And Spock sacrifices himself so the Enterprise can be saved. And his death allows him and David to connect.

And maybe now Kirk could get to know his son. Maybe after all those years, he could finally get something he wanted. Spock's death hurt but it gave Kirk a new chance.

But then David is killed and Kirk never truly recovers from his son's death.

(at least he realizes he has a family with McCoy and Spock, but it can't fill the void of his son and a romantic partner)

"...I was like you once ...so completely blinded by duty and obligations that I couldn't see anything past this uniform. And in the end, what did it get me? An empty house..."

---

yeah, anyway, just putting La'an into my typical Kirk journey

#you can't have a noonien-singh without marcuses #it's all connected and interwoven #i really hope they will do much more with it #i had to include janet because... it's janet #like i won't go the cliché way that is his feelings toward la'an took him away from his son and khan brought his son back into kirk's life #but it'd be funny #this is very rough because i just wanted to write it down before i forgot #snw nonsense #tos nonsense #headcanon times #jim kirk #star trek tos #star trek snw #la’an noonien singh #carol marcus #david marcus #khan noonien singh

Watching "Charlie X" and thinking yet again what a good decision Carol made, to raise David by herself.

Every now and then I get to thinking about Saavik and David Marcus and the fun that could be had writing them, but Carol doesn't strike me as the type that would let that poor guy have his own life really.
