I love reading/writing fanfic and I love slashing male characters when there is some canon subtext to their relationship! It's so much fun. :) I especially love to read stories about the close relationships between Captain James T. Kirk/Spock, Captain Jack Sparrow/Will Turner and Remus Lupin/Sirius Black.

~THE NEW STAR TREK MOVIE WAS FABULOUS (available on DVD now!) and I am a newly proclaimed Trekker. There was so much eyesex going on between Kirk and Spock the ENTIRE TIME. And the mindmeld! Wow, Mr. Nimoy. Just wow. I am in awe of your mad acting skillz. i'm also kinda jealous of Kirk's apple in the Kobayashi Maru sequence. (I'd really love to be in that apple's position.) Spock's my favorite character because there's just so much too him, the Vulcan-human duality thing plus the mindmelding and the nerve pinching and the Pon Farr Vulcan mating cycle and the Vulcan marriage bond and the sheer awesomeness that is Spock. But... I'm a Kirk girl. I just find that character to be ridiculously attractive. It's really quite illogical, since I've never liked the arrogant type in the past. But I think Kirk's more than what you see on the surface - there's this vulnerability to him that just makes me want to give him a hug. People who think all he is is a womanizer really don't understand the character at all, IMHO.

So I've seen this thing like 4 times already. I am so excited for the sequel that should be released in 2012, and that they have a trilogy in mind which all the actors are signed for. Hooray for the return of Star Trek!

I'm pretty psyched about Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto's bromance as well. They have some adorable interviews together - they're all touchy feely and it makes me happy.

I've watched all the TOS episodes now and I love getting a kick out of all the moments between Kirk and Spock that could be perceieved as slashy like Amok Time, Shore Leave, and the Apple. I even cried at the end of the movie Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan! Damn I love those two. They are true t'hy'la (friends, brothers, and lovers). May they live long and prosper!

I've met so many new friends in the K/S fandom! To DeliciousNewYork, Pirate College Graduate, Syrus, Brittany Diamond, Spookyfbi, T'Pinto, ImAmandaJulius, JadeMac2442 and others - thank you for being awesome. Keep on trekkin' !

Deliciousnewyork made me a fantastic piece of K/S fanart for Teach Me which can be found here: http://s1005.photobucket.com/albums/af174/SpirkTrekker42/?action=view¤t=TeachMe.jpg

I wrote an "essay" (well it's more of a rambling commentary) on the slashy points of the Star Trek novelization of the movie. It can be found here at my livejournal. http://spirktrekker42.livejournal.com/#spirktrekker428285 Leave me a comment if you wish!

Youtube account: http://www.youtube.com/user/SpirkTrekker42 I've made some AMATEUR K/S fanvids. Feedback is always welcome.

K/S Advent calendar: http://community.livejournal.com/ksadvent2009/ I will be participating on Dec 3rd!

I attended the Vegas Con in August and got to see ZQ, the Shat, and Leonard Nimoy speak live! I even asked ZQ what his favorite scene with Kirk was (and he said the bridge choke scene because he gets to kick Kirk's ass!) LOVE ZQ FOR (UNINTENTIONAL?) SLASHY RESPONSE.

If you just want to talk Kirk/Spock, send me a PM. I'm always eager to discuss the versatile relationship between our favorite captain and Vulcan.

Proof of slash: Episode - Shore Leave. Captain Kirk's back rub - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCC0OaU8ndA "Dig it in there, Mr. Sp-" Kirk's thoughts: Oh crap, it's not him. Dammit! I think I'll still give my bondmate err Spock a searing gaze though. Because we're totally just good friends. (In a pig's eye!!)

My Trek stories:

Chance Encounter - WIP. Pre-slash. (Slow developing K/S friendship.) Kirk and Spock are kidnapped by Cupcake and are sent back in time via the Guardian of Forever. Kirk gets to meet his father. But when Kirk is presented with a choice that could affect all of history, will he make the right decision?

Spock - Owner's Guide - Complete. Funny! Just how do you care for a SPOCK unit?

Kirk - Owner's Guide - Complete. Funny! Just how do you care for a KIRK unit?

The T'hy'la Chronicles (series)

Story 1 - Teach Me - Complete. The K/S version of ST:XI. Everyone believes Spock is going out with Uhura, but she's just a decoy. He's with Kirk, but they don't want Nero to use Kirk against Spock, so their relationship must remain a secret. But what happens when their secret is revealed and Spock's father disapproves?

Story 2 - Mission to Gamus - Complete. The sequel to Teach Me. Set at the end of the five year mission. Kirk and Spock's last mission is to a planet with a homophobic society. What happens when their bond is discovered? Will Spock be able to save Kirk in time? Will they be able to improve the society for all of its LGBT inhabitants without violating the Prime Directive? Read to find out. My first "political" fic. I worked harder on this than on anything I've ever written, although I realize the message was rather 'heavy handed'. I'd really appreciate some feedback on it!

The Enterprise Crew Watches XI - Complete. Parody of the new movie, as the characters comment on scenes in the movie. Hilarious not-so-subtle subtext between Kirk and Spock Prime!

Spock Gets Rick Rolled - Complete. Just like it sounds! Spock is not amused.

~I've always loved Pirate of the Caribbean and the subtext between Captain Jack Sparrow and Will Turner. It is most noticable in the first film, Curse of the Black Pearl, as well as the third film, At World's End.

~I love most Harry Potter fics, but I really enjoy the Marauder era fics. (MWPP) I was always of the opinion that there was something deeper than friendship between Sirius and Remus when I read the series. Maybe one day I will write for this pairing.

Favorite Pairings:

Star Trek: SPIRK.

Homophobia and You

I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.
I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.
I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.
We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.
I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.
I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.
I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.
I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.
We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.
I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.
I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.
I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.
I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.
I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.
I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I did not have to always deal with society hating me.
I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.
I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.
I am the person who is afraid of telling his loving Christian parents he loves another male.

Re-post this if you believe homophobia is wrong. Please do your part to end it.
