Panfandom Hanukkah Bingo
WHAT: A fanworks bingo celebrating Jewish (and Jew-ish) characters across any and all fandoms. Write fanfiction and/or create graphics (moodboards, edits, vids, whatever you like) to fill prompts on this overall bingo card. During the 8 nights of Hanukkah, submit your fills to the AO3 collection and/or post them on Tumblr to be reblogged and added to the Bingo Masterpost.
WHY: Jewish characters and Jewish fans are often overlooked or erased during the Winter Holiday Season in favor of “Secret Santa” exchanges, Christmas-themed fics, and the idea that ~Hanukkah is Jewish Christmas~ (which spoiler for all fics in this bingo: it’s not). This panfandom Bingo challenge is to celebrate Hanukkah on its own terms and give Jewish characters and fans a place to breathe. :)

I think its funny how people call spirk queerbaiting. Like Amok Time came out in 1967, we were just getting out of the hays code era. You could be arrested for being gay, homosexuality would remain in the dsm as a mental illness for six more years when this episode released. There was no one to queerbait lmao. It was genuine, full bodied, accidental homoeroticism. Idk I just think Spirk should not be known as a queerbait couple, it was truly just guys being dudes staring lovingly at eachother while also being t'hy'la. Which sounds like queerbait but I promise it is actually A secret third thing that is neither and both at the same time.

very related to the last lupo rambles post but- if I *made* a spirktober2023 list, who all wants it? and who all has suggestions for a background for it to make it all nice looking
thinking about finding maybe last year's/this year's kinktober prompt list for a starting point for like ideas and finding previous years spirktober lists.

In Amok Time, Spock says, "Captain, lock me away. I do not wish to be seen." And Kirk responds, "I'm trying to help you, Spock." And it's revealed he's taking Spock to Sickbay.
But, in the previous episode Operation: Annihilate, Spock breaks out of Sickbay only to be sedated, brought back, and restrained. Locked away, if you will. And it leads to Spock's, "Let me help," offering himself up as both possible sacrifice and test subject.

But! In the episode before that, The City on the Edge of Forever, we get the iconic exchange of:
Edith Keeler: Whatever it is, let me help.
Kirk: "Let me help." A hundred years or so from now, I believe, a famous novelist will write a classic using that theme. He'll recommend those three words even over "I love you."
Funny how certain phrases and events parallel or cycle back around between consecutive (by air date, not production code) episodes. Interesting. Fascinating, even. (I am fully aware of the caveat that my brain is seeking out patterns, I am lost in the Spirk sauce/soup/brainrot/whatever, etc.)

People on this website really trying to downplay the specific role of destiel in the events of November 5th 2020 ‘it could have been any other ship that went canon at that time and had the same effect’ no.
Nothing else is destiel.
Nothing else is 12 years and hundreds of episodes of extremely obvious and deliberate queerbaiting that was Vehemently denied by the production team. Nothing else is the ship about characters whose larger overarching plot is literally fighting against their own pre-determined narrative to attain free will. Nothing else proved in the 11th hour Just before the show ended that the meta narrative and queer reading by fans who insisted there was something there and who were constantly called crazy by the production and by other fans and by the rest of the internet were RIGHT.
The CW did market research! About whether to make it canon! In a show they always pretended was aimed primarily at middle (conservative) America!!!
The queer subtext was so Fucking Strong by the end of the show, because the writers constantly wrote themselves into corners that could Only be explained away by destiel, that they HAD to admit defeat and canonize it.
And THEN even after they made it canon, they denied it some more and tried to downplay it! But it happened! The angel is fucking gay!!!!
Destiel is THE great American queerbait and had been a staple of the culture of this site for over a decade before November 5 2020. There is a REASON it is the most popular ship on AO3. ‘The same thing would have happened if johnlock became canon or spirk or whatever else’ no it simply would not have because crucially CRUCIALLY those ships Never Became Canon! The fact that Destiel of all the popular queerbait slash ships of the past few decades somehow at long last DID, and in a way that Still refused to just let the shippers have it and allow any implication of full reciprocation and that the final two episodes and the entire cast absolutely refused to acknowledge in any way, is why the canonization of destiel is one of the wildest things to happen to fandom culture as a whole in recent memory, and you cannot theoretically remove the destiel of it all and have it be the same kind of event.
The reason november 5 happened like it did, why people started making jokes at all, is because the fandom cultural juggernaut that is destiel becoming canon is the only thing that could have possibly managed to trend above the U.S. election. BECAUSE it’s destiel.

the way i always thought of tos spirk was like all they do is flirt over chess and during inappropriate life threatening events for a full year and then one day some mildly too close to home traumatic thing happens and then they've been married for 30 years. and that's only sudden to everyone else cus they were already mindmelding For Fun like a week into meeting and just quietly acknowledged oh ok so it's Like That but we're also Busy Doing Science so let's just Do Nothing About Our Feelings For No Valid Reason. and then their first kiss is like in the rec room or smth generic and its just because one of them is tired or stressed and it's not even registered as new it's like yeah this is normal and correct and has probably happened before who's counting lol and bones is like what the FUCK was that

THE WAR IS OVER!
Spirk has been crowned Tumblr's OTP, along with their shippers (and general audience) achieving their goal: honouring the foundations of fandom and shipping.
Tumblr media
[Image Description: A banner with a podium showing first, second and third placw with confetti over it. In first place there are Spock and James Kirk, from Star Trek. In second place there are Gideon Nav and Harrowhark Nonagesimus, from The Locked Tomb book series. In third place there are Caleb Widogast and Essek Thelyss, from the second campaign of Critical Role. End ID]
Thank you for participating in The Ship Wars! This is it. The end! It was amazing to be able to host this for you.
See you around for the next mini-events: Polls That Never Came to Be, Hall of Fame and Hall of Lame, where I'll bring some highlights (and statistics) from the tournament. This will all be posted with time, but for now, this mod will take a very needed nap.
Keep on shipping, and may love win <3

TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY SO MANDATORY SPIRK ART FOR MEEE
This year I'm so busy that I had to keep it simple, so a little cute drawing of my family au that I have in my head for +5 years 🤗
This AU is yeaaars in the making and I'm not a 100% confident of it to write of draw about it (but i my birthday and I want to indulge myself) if you want to know more: under the cut
SO, in this AU Jim and Spock have a one night stand and Jim ends up pregnant, Jim goes to Spock but he doesn't let Jim have a say bcs he heard rumors (Spock is kind of an ass in the beginning)
bullet points bcs Idk how to write it all:
✨Jim gets so offended that he decided not tell him and go to the Vulcan embassy for help, there with time he meets T'Pol and T'Pau that are great help
✨Every event is pretty the same for the movie so I just make some sneaks here and there of his life with his baby.
✨Bones and Gaila are godparents of that baby (I don't have a specific name for her, like I'm between Alice or T'Shanik)
✨Spock gets involve after the events of the Narada, Amanda is still alive (bcs I said so), he loves her so much but Jim still wary of him but he lets him form a bond with her.
✨Everything is the same in Into the Darkness, Jim dies and resuscitates, here I diverge in 2 AUs one were Jim and Carol have David and one they doesn't and part ways in both (their canon event)
✨Spock really tries with Uhura (She loves the kid too), but in Beyond they just broke up.
✨Jim settles on earth and takes a teaching position while they are making the Enterprise-A, and Spock does too, they live in the same building or neighborhood.
✨They fall in love (with the help of their daughter and crew, bcs they are pretty dumb) and they get married and have another child, another daughter that is a menace, but she's an story for another day
That's pretty much the AU, very cliche and fluff and angst that I haven't written.
Wanna see my other Birthday spirk drawings?
