"Kirk is the unpredictable daredevil with the logical Vulcan sidekick."
Hahaha! Nah. Thatโs backwards.
Kirk may be a tactical genius, but heโs also a major nerd who collects antique books and is a chess Grandmaster. He was so focused on excelling academically at the Academy he was called a stack of book with legs. Kirk is the steadfastly moral, kind, bleeding heart who wears his heart on his sleeve. Heโs compassionate to a fault. He may throw himself headfirst into the fray, but only because heโd rather sacrifice himself than others, and has the faith that Spock will always rescue him, and Bones will be there to piece him back together.
On the other hand, Spock is a REBEL of the highest order. Heโs a thrill seeking adrenaline junkie, who dives head first into danger.
People hear Spock say that he is too โemotionalโ for Vulcans, and think itโs just because he gets into fights defending his and his motherโs humanity. Maybe heโs considered too emotional because he cries, or struggles to hide that heโs overly sensitive, or that he lashes out at bullies instead of suppressing his reactions, but really, thatโs just the tip of the iceberg.
Spock craves adventure and exploration. He may look like the model buttoned up Vulcan to the nakedly emotional humans, but to Vulcans heโs the kid who undertook the kahs-wan at 7, three years early. Heโs the kid who questions everything around him. Heโs a scientist who craves discovery, to be the first to prove the unprovable.
He responds to slander against his mother with violence, and defied his fatherโs wishes and broke generations of family tradition by saying a giant โFuck Youโ to the VSA and refused admittance when they insulted his and his motherโs humanity, and left Vulcan for Earth and humans without looking back.
He may be the great grandson of Solkar, and the heir to the clan of Surak, but the other Vulcans see him as the human son of the illogical Ambassador who defied logic and Vulcan precepts to marry an even more illogical human. They see him as the first Vulcan to officially join a human led, militaristic armada that explores the deep recesses of space, deliberately putting himself in situations that force him to respond with violence and emotion.
Spock isnโt the calm, collected, logical exterior he projects. Spock is a BAMF, and donโt you forget it.
