Screaming Into The Void

My the funniest thing is that all the tattoos on the character customisation have turned into this???

Like I’m kinda devastated that all my stuff is gone but I’m sort of tempted to use this just to see if it sticks.

We just finished the ‘on the run’ chapter and Conner died during his run. What’s interesting is this actually has shifted his perspective on Hank. He’s been quite negative towards Hank so far (tragically) but seeing Hank’s reaction to Conner’s death has begun to shift that. My step dad was talking about how upset Hank looked and sounded, and how he think’s he might of misjudged him because he seems to care.

His current theory at this point is that Hank had a previous android partner/friend who was either killed by a Deviant or went Evil and that’s why Hank doesn’t like androids. He keeps talking about how he can’t wait for the Hank backstory flashback with his ex android partner frolicking in the field together. Which is kinda charming.

TOS Spirk for me has Spock falling for Kirk first. With him obviously holding feelings for Kirk but not saying anything till at least post the motion picture. But there is an underlying jealously and slightly melancholy to Spock’s affection for Kirk, that is amplified by Kirks many MANY romantic forays. I think we see it especially in episodes like the Edith Keeler time travel one (I can’t remember the name right now).

But with the Kelvin timeline I think it flips with Kirk falling for Spock first. After the 2009 film we don’t really see Kirk experience the same attempts as romantic twists that TOS Kirk does. Instead from into darkness onward his strongest emotional connection is with Spock. Spock is with Uhura in these movies (which I personally do not like much at all but hey it’s there I suppose) and thus that emotional sensitivity is tied to their relationship rather than Kirk and Spock’s like in the original. And I’ve always read aos kirk as being a little jealous of that, much like tos Spock is of Kirk’s romantic connections.

I also feel like the presence of tos Spock in the Kelvin timeline might have amplified those feelings, cuz the is NO WAY that some of tos Spock’s gay feelings for tos Kirk didn’t bleed through that mind meld. And the idea of aos Kirk knowing that he and Spock had something in another life really adds to the repressed yearning.
