Alrighty fellas. Buckle up because I have more spirk for you <3
Recently, I finished First Frontier. I was not expecting it to be so slashy at ALL, but oh boy did Diane Carey turn up. She also worked with some guy with a PhD to make sure she got all the scientific/historical facts correct, so just stellar work by her all around.
So we start off with Jim literally forgetting that Bones exists because Spock wears blue so well-
Then he passes out. But don't worry guys, it's Spock's voice that he cliNGS TO THAT GETS HIM THROUGH HIS NIGHTMARES.
Talk about 0-100 real quick...
So once he's feeling (relatively) better, he once again finds an anchor in Spock. Who Jim regards with an opiate expression. Opiate... drug.... Spock is like a drug to him.
I'm living and thriving in the subtext rn, sue me.
Anyways, Spock comes closer to tell him about rocks, and Jim learns closer still.
Bro. All that room on the bridge to look at that big-ass screen and you are standing shoulder to shoulder. Be more obvious 😭
If you care about the plot, they are now on Earth before the meteor that killed all the dinosaurs.
If you don't care about the plot, Jim sees a threat targeting Spock and something inside him "snaps"
Aaaand we are back from drawing security from Mr. Spock. Plus something about them having a schedule that's just their own, unlike any other ANYWHERE in the universe?? Please. Just kiss already.
This man will never let anyone or anything harm Spock.
And this is where the married energy beginssss
The blatant flirting I CAN'T
Anyways guys stay tuned, this is only half the book. Part 2 soon 😌
