Being in this community is like being a kid in a candy store for a Spock-Uhura shipper, isn't it?
This was my first full week in which I found myself totally obsessed by this community, so to celebrate all of the things I enjoyed in particular, here's what's on my "Obsession List" for this week:
Slow Burn

The Vulcan equivalent to a kiss.... I'd read a fic that described it and I just couldn't picture it. Thanks to Kara-lija, I can now! That's actually hot! *fans herself*
Kara, you did a fantastic job capturing their essence and the sensuality of this moment! Props!

Are they or aren't they?
(The Spock-side of my brain is telling me that he's just whispering something to her, but the Kirk-side is telling me that's a kiss and a nibble on the ear he's about to give her...;P )
What Do You Need?
He's trying so hard to stay Vulcan, but I love that he's actually holding her, holding on to her. Hard-core Vulcans wouldn't do that, would they? Naw, I didn't think so either...
This new take on Spock just makes me squeeee!
All Mine

Again, Kara, fabulous job evoking a tender moment between my new absolute fav couple..
Love how she's got her hand on his waist (nice and intimate) and his hands are behind his back (so Vulcan) yet his face is so close to hers...*sighs*
Office Hours

It's only logical - they totally MUST have hooked up during school, but I wonder if it was more well-known than we think. Remember when Uhura got him to reassign her back to the Enterprise? I recall him saying that he had switched out Uhura to avoid appearances of favoritism - i.e., kinda like, "Everyone knows we're an item and if I assigned you to the Enterprise they'd think it was just because you are my girlfriend...".
So, if everyone knew, did that mean it was basically accepted or at least understood? Did they just turn a blind eye maybe?

Metaknight - Really nice screen cap...I love how Metaknight chose to cap this particular part of the scene. There's just enough of his face to show his eyes closed and his profile hovering above hers...It's haunting...
From this one cap, you can just feel the heat and the mutual adoration between these two...nice!

...Metaknight - Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Somehow this kiss manages to be pretty/intense/pure/HOT - all at the same time. Great eye capping this!
I've Earned My Place on the Enterprise
Ok, it's easy to see why Uhura would have been attracted to this Half-Vulcan...
Come on, people - that is one fine-looking- all-masculine-y- specimen-of-a-half-alien-half-man ...tee hee hee
Seriously, though - Are They or Aren't They?
*hearts* They do make a cute couple...they really do! *hearts*
*sighs* One can only hope...
