Team Ashayam: speaking Vulcan in bed since 1966
IDK how it happened, but after being totally "nyeh?" on the idea of Ship Wars, I went and signed up for it. Spock/Uhura was being underrepresented! Totally not acceptable for a canon ship, let alone my canon OTP.
I have no idea what I've gotten myself into, but I figure I'll just watch taraljc captaining the Pike/Number One ship and try to emulate her level of enthusiam, if not actually skills. If there's a challenge involving dithering over the same five sentences for three days straight, I've got it in the bag!
I won't be spammy after this, I promise. But if you're still reading and interested in helping hold up the teamashayam banner, you should sign up! I swear most of the rest of us don't know what we're doing either. Probably.
This almost constitutes ACTUAL POST CONTENT so here's what I said in the welcome post about why I ship it:
Spock/Uhura has everything: beautiful intelligent Starfleet officers, sexy language skills, extreme competence, hidden depths, teacher/student kink, Vulcan hands, Vulcan rituals, mind-melding, and the ever-awesome theme of struggling to reconcile conflicting parts of oneself.
The juxtaposition of the modern ideal world of Starfleet with the ancient culture of Vulcan alone would be enough to float this ship for me. Add Nyota and her awesomeness and I'm dead, lashed to the mast.
ALSO THERE IS VULCAN SEX TALK IN BED AND DUDES YOU KNOW THEY DO IT ALL THE TIME. BECAUSE THEY ARE SO UNF THEY CAN'T EVEN HELP THEMSELVES.
In conclusion:
Spock and Uhura thank you for your time. Or they would, but they're busy macking in the turbolift:
FOOTNOTE: Seriously I promise not to do this all the time please don't defriend me!
