In celebration of Star Trek’s 60th anniversary this September, our summer event is all about Old Men Spirk!
❓ WHAT IS IT? 🤔
The people who brought you Live Long and Pinup, Spirk in a Cave, and Shipboard Weekends are back with a shiny new Summer Spirk Event!
This time around we want to see your vision of Spirk at Sixty! Are they happily married with 2 cats and tenure track positions at Starfleet Academy? Perhaps they’re out stealing ships for enrichment in their old age. Heck, maybe they’re both in jail for...well canon gives us plenty of reasons.
Writers, artists, poets, filkers, and all other creatives are welcome to join the event and show us your vision of Spirk at Sixty! You’re welcome to use any iteration of Spirk: TOS, TAS, TOS Movies, AOS Movies, or SNW. They all deserve some quality retirement time.
New to fandom? We're here to welcome you! All you need is a love of Spirk and a desire to create.

❓ WHAT IS IT? 🤔
This summer we're hosting a fan creation event to celebrate Star Trek's 60th Anniversary! Create fanfic, fan art, filk, pasta sculpture, or whatever creative endeavor you enjoy, as long as it involves Old Men Spirk.
📆 WHEN IS IT?
August 17 - September 7, 2026
🎭 HOW WILL IT WORK?
Pick a date from the list below. We’ll update this Tumblr post as the dates fill up. Right now we're booking two people per day. If every date gets taken we’ll potentially open up to a further round of signups. When a date is full we will strikethrough it.
Send an Ask to this very blog including your chosen date and whether you are an artist, a writer, or some other exciting sort of fan creator.
We will send you an invite to join the Spirk Events Server (a fantastic community of Spirk writers and artists)
When your chosen posting date rolls around, post your fic/art/creation on AO3 and Tumblr.
Add your work to the Spirk at Sixty AO3 collection
In addition to your own descriptions, also add these tags: #spirk at 60 #spirk at 60 #spirk events
Once your work is posted on AO3, feel free to share it far and wide!
Follow this blog for updates
We can’t wait to see the fics and works of art you’ll create around the theme “Spirk at Sixty!”
📑 Fine Print:
Fic minimum length is 2000 words. No max, but know yourself and be realistic about how much you can write within the timeframe.
All art should depict Old Men Spirk. Fic doesn't have to take place at the exact age of 60, but Jim and Spock should be qualified for Senior Citizen Discounts at fine Federation Merchants near you.
This is an 18+ event. Sorry, youths!
Since it’s an 18+ event your fanwork can be any rating you’d like! Have fun!
You need an AO3 account to participate. If you don’t have one yet, they’re free!
Admission to the server is provisional. If you post your fanwork then great! You’re in! If not, we’ll regretfully ask you to leave. However, that’s not a perma-ban. You’re welcome to join up again the next time we have an open event!
Please let us know in advance if you won’t be able to post your work. We won't be mad! Real life happens. The sooner we know the sooner we can open up that slot for other people.

Rating: Teen And Up Audiences

It's Jim's first New Years since the five year mission ended, and he has nobody to spend with with but a pack of beer. That is, until Spock turns up at his door with Chinese food, doughnuts, and the news that there's a Hallmark movie marathon on.

Summary:
Reaching for him was as easy as breathing— or at least it had been. Now the old habit did nothing but prod at the wound that had once been his bond with Spock. Bones had chastised him for not letting it heal more times than he could count in the months since Spock's death and revival.
In truth, Jim did not want it to heal, he did not want to lose the one tangible reminder of what he and Spock had once been. Even if that reminder meant suffer migraines more often than not.or Jim tries to navigate a relationship with a husband who doesn't remember they are married

Rating: General Audiences
Words: 7148
Chapters: 5/5
Summary:
Spock is aware of the Terran custom to exchange tokens of mutual regard during the winter holidays. After the events of an away mission, Spock comes to the logical conclusion that a dog would be an ideal gift for the captain. After all, he has observed a correlation between the captain’s interactions with canid species resembling earth canines and a 32.4% increase in the captain’s display of positive affect.
Unfortunately, Tribble the Pomeranian puppy proves to be bigger trouble than Spock would have anticipated given her innocent demeanor and incredibly small stature.
This is a stand-alone sequel to Winter Wonderland, a short story I wrote for the K/S Advent calendar last year.
In response to a prompt by Affixjoy.
The last of my prompt fills is up now!! I had a great time with the advent calendar this year. Thank you to everyone involved in the process…from the moderators, to the writers/artists, and of course…the ones who submitted the prompts!

Summary:
yen-tor. verb; forget: to be unable to remember somethingJim and Spock kiss on an alien planet, but by the time Jim beams aboard he's forgotten it ever happened.The choice was made. Spock would say nothing. He would bury the memory of the alcove deep within the fortress of his mind, and he would continue to serve as Jim's first officer with the same efficiency and dedication he always had. It was the logical course of action. It was the only course of action.It was torture.

very funny that the solution to shatner and nimoys feuding and ego problems behind the scenes was send them to the yaoi mines until they worked it out and this was suggested by acclaimed science fiction writer isaac asimov they will stop fighting over lines and spotlight if you always place the characters together and make their relationship central to the show one cannot think of spock without kirk and kirk without spock and next domino falls slash fiction is invented..
My favorite part of this is Asimov opening the letter by being like "I was in TIME MAGAZINE last week and I made sure to mention your cute little show thingy"
