I've been holding out on you. I'm sorry, D:
Anyway I was supposed to be asleep two hours ago but hemming a pair of dress pants is the absolute worst goddamn it. Waste of thread, too. Guess I'll have to put off doodling Jim's electric baby blues until after the group interview for a position at the new ArcLight.
ANYWAY.
I need to fix my OTP list on a private blog because I severely miscalculated myself. I don't... return to fandoms, okay? I blaze through a fandom, burn out, ragequit, and jump on a new train. I don't... turn around and reattach myself to a fandom, or two. Someone needs to chisel the NuTrek OST out of my head and convince me that no, I don't need to take a curious poke at the Bilbo/Thorin stuff floating around Tumblr.
But here I am binging away on NuTrek Jim/Bones over at AO3 while tracking discussions about Nyota Uhura and her relationship with Spock (which, interestingly enough, includes TOS).
I've gone and done some arts. It's only a matter of time before I start dabbling in fic regardless of the wealth of canon and fanon I'd have to sift through. There was a fic I wanted to write back in 2009 but didn't because I had no confidence and wasn't sure how the hell I'd be able to track down the names of Jim's superiors. None of the fic I read gave me an idea of who's canon and who's an OC.
(funny thing, though - part of that fic I wanted to write will actually be playing on the big screen next year, because apparently I'm not the only one intrigued by the idea that the way Jim earned his captaincy could backfire spectacularly)
I have two arts and a Sam/Tron ficlet and them I'm outta here.
I like to think that these two doodles are linked and deal with the aftermath of an away mission that went very wrong, hence the blood on Jim and the green bruises on Spock's face/hands.
TBQH what really terrifies me is the reaction Tumblr had to the Jim/Bones one besides the people who mistook it for Jim/Spock, which I don't even understand. I hit some kind of nerve with the Jim/Bones crowd and the tags surprise me because to me it's a simple doodle to get an idea out of my head and to a lot of other people it's full of Feels + one ficlet. Makes me real happy, =)
