I’m almost finished writing an amazing Kirk/Spock fanfiction! (At least I like to think it’s amazing). I’ll let you know once it has been published! I hope everyone has been enjoying their summer. I’m in Croatia on vacation and also to visit family.

I've returned to Star Trek fandom -- by which I mean, after loving the show starting around age 10, participating a bit in the pre-internet 'zine scene in my early 20s, watching Next Gen when it aired ... and then kind of losing interest for a few decades. Until Disco and SNW sucked me back in. I'm old school ride or die for Kirk/Spock. Now combing Ao3 for great fics, writing one of my own and wanting to find out who's who in fandom now.
Me: long term fangirl. Grown-up and proud of it. (Don't hit me with age-ist crap about fandom not being for people over 25 because it just makes you look ignorant.) Other fandoms: Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Black Sails, Hannibal.
Me on Ao3.
Love this guy>>>>>
Tumblr media
I'm looking for my fellow fans, specifically the Spirk, K/S, and fic writing contingent. Any links, Discord invites, whatever appreciated. Say howdy.

In one of the MELE playthroughs I'm following, the player is about to reach the "About Horizon" email and it has reminded me of something that really surprised me when I started to interact with fandom content.
It had never crossed my mind that that email could be seen as something bad. I mean, I expected it from the Kaidan haters who love to twist everything he says, but I have even seen it from some shenkos.
The guy starts by saying he's sorry about what he said in Horizon and then tries to explain what was going on in his mind. Yeah, he mentions seeing someone else, but he's just being honest and straight forward (as he has always been), two things that are essential in any relationship, romantic or not, specially if there's been a fight and you are trying to mend things. Plus, it's been two years for him and he never says he has found love. In fact, everything sounds pretty reluctant and casual. And even so, he then goes to say that everything turned upside down when he saw Shepard and is obvious that he wants to talk with her again and try to patch up their relationship.
Overall, I have always thought that it is an email from a very confused yet madly in love man.
Side note: I have the Spanish version and they messed up a bit with the translation and instead of Kaidan going out on a date with some doctor, they made it sound as if he was having a drinking problem and went to see a doctor for help 😅

Just a quicky that came to my mind the other day. I mean, we already have evidence from the series that Kirk is a bit dramatic in his sleeping..... * starts having flashbacks *..... boy, I should do a compilation, what a meme.

K/S Advent
Guess what time it is? Yes! @ksadvent ...the long-standing k/s tradition of spirky goodness is almost upon us!
Tumblr media
The due date is November 20th, but we can negotiate! 😅 Instead of setting it up so you have one fic a day, we run it slightly differently, so that (ideally) you have several things revealed on each day in December!
You can see the prompts here: https://archiveofourown.org/collections/KS_AdventCalendar2023/requests
Please signal boost if you're so inclined and help us get the word out!

-Late Night Reading In The Captains Quarters- Mock TV clip (Spirk- Mlp Star Trek Crossover)
Tumblr media
Just some fluffy equine space husbands spending some quality time in the Captain’s quarters. 
Who needs to read when you have a wining and clingy Captain at your side, begging you to “Put the damn book down and snuggle some more!”? Hoping to irritate and provoke his pointy eared goblin enough that in return, he’ll get some nibbles as “punishment on the neck (not unlike a mother dog, punishing her puppy for acting out of turn). 
No matter how fascinating and riveting the marvelous history of the expanse of the universe  concept of passing time is, not even the most dedicated and focused Vulcan can resist his “T’hy’la’s wishes.
A pleasant way to end the long shifts aboard the Enterprise, lets leave them in peace and privacy, shall we?.

If I may, I have some suggestions for the pairing game! I propose some OT3 : Star Trek Triumvirate (Kirk, Spock and McCoy), or the Castlevania Triple Threat (Alucard, Sypha, Trevor) !
Tumblr media
10/12! We are getting somewhere, wooo! And look. I love them. But this always had the kirk-has-two-hands dynamic for me, spacehusbands with their adopted feral grumpy doctor, and not bones third wheeling but kinda and they all need each other but if bones and spock don't bitch they die, and-

Characters I Headcanon have Bipolar disorder
(From the perspective of someone living with Bipolar 2)
**Disclaimer**
This is all meant to be in good fun and I’m no mental health expert; merely someone who has been through lots of therapy
Let’s Begin!
1. Rin Okumura from Blue Exorcist
Tumblr media
I’ve always related to Rin Okumura, especially during the time I was under the mistaken diagnosis of ADD. I was surprised to learn from this that a lot of symptoms of bipolar can look like ADD/ADHD at times.
For example, Rin is shown to be someone who is easily distracted or fixated on new topics. He also tends to sleep a lot which is confirmed in the manga by the fact that this boy sleeps 12 hours every night. And finally a major factor that clued me in is how easily he is swayed by his emotions which leads him to act impulsively.
Rin’s emotions tie him to his demonic half which in turn can cause a lot of inner turmoil for him. I’m sure anyone with bipolar can relate in feeling like their change to either a manic/hypomanic state can cause them to feel like a demon and out of control. But as is shown in the series, by practicing to focus on his emotions, Rin learns to lessen and control his symptoms.
2. Gangle from The Amazing Digital Circus
Tumblr media
I know I know, I’m lowkey pulling for stereotypes here with the tragedy and comedy masks. And on top of that this is a series with only a pilot so we hardly know anything concrete about her character. 😂
Everyone in the digital circus seems to play a role based off of their avatar given to them. As a being with two different masks, Gangle is very sensitive to the way in which she acts when her comedy mask is broken.
She tends to be very anxious and sensitive to the events that unfold around her both physically and mentally (she unravels from a mere bowling ball being thrown her way by Jax).
In some fandom interpretations of her character I’ve seen interesting depictions that also heavily give bipolar vibes like Gangle having an abstracted self tied to her ribbons or forcing on her comedy mask. I love Gangle and this pilot.
3. Captain SpaceBoy from Omori
Tumblr media
Oh poor Captain SpaceBoy. He’s so heavily influenced by any mood swings he experiences that he seems to take on an entirely new persona whether it be SpaceBoyfriend, Space-ExBoyfriend, SpaceHusband, or Space-ExHusband.
When you first meet his character, you can clearly see he is depressed as he refuses to leave his bed and throws away any special possessions that remind him of his heart ache. Later on he even goes as far as to isolate himself on top of a snowy mountain when the heartache returns to him again..
He is also easily consumed by a rage which seems similar to a manic/hypomanic state that leads him to fight the main cast of characters. Also when it comes to his special boss battle I find it interesting how you can only defeat him by fighting him in certain states of emotion.
4. Howl Jenkins Pendragon from Howl’s Moving Castle
Tumblr media
Howl is undeniably a drama Queen, but some of the ways in which he takes certain actions give me some bipolar vibes.
There is of course the infamous scene in which he throws a tantrum due to Sophie organizing his hair dye potions. He swings very quickly from being irritated and enraged to absolutely inconsolable and depressed. He even spends that next couple hours in bed after this scene.
Howl also tends to lead himself to danger as he appears to be in heightened states of euphoria when he pushes himself to the limit with his magic. He is also rather impulsive when it comes to the relationships he makes with others if we are going off of his book persona.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
But above all!! All these characters are shown to be good people who genuinely care about the feelings of others and try to do their best to help even when their own mental health is bringing them down.
Bipolar individuals are more than their disorder; we are all kind people ♥️
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And that’s all! Lemme know what you think :)
