SPONES FIC IN SUMMER HOLIDAYS

El mar Mediterráneo, el calor típico de la zona, la exquisita comida, los lugares llenos de historia medieval, las zonas al aire libre lejos de cualquier otra persona, una casa acogedora a orillas de la playa, deportes de todo tipo, paseos por lugares de ensueño, lugareños carismáticos, una guía contratada por Jim...

The Mediterranean Sea, the typical warmth of the area, the exquisite food, the places full of medieval history, the outdoor areas far away from anyone else, a cosy house by the beach, sports of all kinds, walks in dreamlike places, charismatic locals, a guide hired by Jim...

La tripulación del Enterprise está de vacaciones el mes de agosto. Jim, Spock y McCoy quieren descansar y no tener que preocuparse por nada durante todo un mes, bañarse en el mar, tumbarse en la arena, recorrerse el pueblo y zonas de interés de los alrededores... Como cualquier otro veraneante. Sin embargo, cada día les pasará algo inusual, algunas cosas más raras que otras, unas provocadas por ellos, otras por pura suerte.

The crew of the Enterprise is on holiday in August. Jim, Spock and McCoy want to rest and not have to worry about anything for a whole month, bathe in the sea, lie on the sand, walk around the town and surrounding areas of interest... Just like any other holidaymaker. However, every day something unusual will happen to them, some things stranger than others, some caused by them, others by pure luck.

Mientras tanto, Spock y McCoy tienen algunos momentos en los que se plantean su amistad y unos posibles sentimientos más hondos. Tienen ocasiones a solas en las que intimar y desarrollar esos sentimientos, otras en las que Jim les parecerá la mejor compañía para romper ese incómodo silencio. Pero en las dos coincide algo, están juntos y eso es algo que les gusta. ¿Aquel lugar les ayudará a confesar al otro lo que de verdad sienten?

Meanwhile, Spock and McCoy have some moments where they consider their friendship and possible deeper feelings. They have times alone when they can intimate and develop those feelings, times when Jim will seem like the best company to break that awkward silence. But in both of those situations, they are together and that is something they like. Will that place help them to confess to each other what they really feel?

Spock, McCoy y Kirk se van de vacaciones a un pueblo mediterráneo de la Tierra durante todo el mes de agosto. Cada capítulo es un día de agosto, y el primero es de cómo llegan hasta el pueblo donde van a pasar las vacaciones, después de dejar el Enterprise. Les pasa algo durante el viaje, sobre todo al final. No tengo pensado que este primer capítulo sea muy largo, porque sería algo así como la presentación.

Spock, McCoy and Kirk go on holiday to a Mediterranean village on Earth for the whole month of August. Each episode is a day in August, and the first episode is about how they get to their holiday village after leaving the Enterprise. Something happens to them during the journey, especially at the end. I don't plan to make this first chapter very long, because it would be something like an introduction.

Los capítulos pertenecen a una serie escrita que he llamado "Un verano muy caliente". El primer capítulo se llama "Que el Enterprise se tome un descanso". Lo publicaré en AO3.

The chapters belong to a written series I've called "A very hot summer". The first chapter is called "The Enterprise takes a break". I'll publish it in AO3.

Obviamente no voy a poder acabar todo lo que tengo pensado antes de que acabe agosto. Con suerte acabaré el primer capítulo (tengo demasiadas cosas pensadas que hacer). Es un fic dedicado a las vacaciones de verano, pero es muy largo (o eso tengo pensado). Son 31 capítulos, uno por cada día de agosto. He planeado ya todos los capítulos por encima. Algunos serán más interesantes que otros, algunos tendrán más interacciones de Spones que otros, pero espero que eso no afecte a que a la gente le guste.

Obviously I'm not going to be able to finish everything I have planned before the end of August. Hopefully I'll finish the first chapter (I have too many things planned to do). It's a fic dedicated to the summer holidays, but it's very long (or so I think). There are 31 chapters, one for each day of August. I've already planned all the chapters a little. Some will be more interesting than others, some will have more Spones interactions than others, but I hope that won't affect people liking it.

Lo siento, tengo que escribir esto porque en mi cerebro tiene sentido y me gusta mucho

I'm sorry, I have to write this because it makes sense in my brain and I like it a lot

Hay una canción que descubrí hace poco que me recuerda a Spones, en la película III En busca de Spock

There's a song I discovered not so long ago that reminds me of Spones, in the film III The search for Spock

Se titula Desde mi cielo

It's entitled Desde mi cielo (From my heaven)

Link to the song (I appreciate if you just listen to it, no need to ship Spones, it's beautiful)

Es una canción de Mägo de Oz (metal). Es una balada (me encantan las baladas) que canta alguien (en mi mente Spock), que acaba de morir. Dice que estaba enamorado cuando vivía, pero nunca se atrevió a decírselo a quien amaba (en este caso Bones). Cuando canta se dirige a aquellos con quienes vivía (la tripulación del Enterprise) en algunos versos, y en la inmensa mayoría a aquella persona especial (Bones)

It's a song by Mägo de Oz (metal). It's a ballad (I love ballads) sung by someone (in my mind Spock), who has just died. He says he was in love when he was alive, but never dared to tell the one he loved (in this case Bones). When he sings he addresses those he lived with (the crew of the Enterprise) in some verses, and in the vast majority to that special person (Bones)

El título Desde mi cielo claramente refleja que su cielo es distinto al que normalmente se piensa. Cielo se entiende al lugar donde se va cuando se muere en el cristianismo, donde te espera Dios. Pero su cielo es distinto. Su cielo es la mente de McCoy. Desde allí les cuida y guía. Desde allí, dirige esta canción, les habla, sobre todo a Bones.

The title From my Heaven clearly reflects that his heaven is different from what is normally thought of. Heaven is understood as the place where you go when you die in Christianity, where God awaits you. But his heaven is different. His heaven is McCoy's mind. From there he watches over them and guides them. From there, he directs this song, he speaks to them, especially to Bones.

I'm going to translate into English the parts I like the most. I have to say that the song won me over from the melody of the beginning with the piano, and every time I listen to it (especially that same melody later in the song but now with an electric guitar), it breaks my heart. It's an intentionally sad song and I can feel it (even more if you think about Spock's death and the rest of the crew suffering his loss) 🥺

Voy a traducir al inglés las partes que más me gustan. He de decir que la canción me ganó desde la melodía del principio con el piano, y cada vez que la escucho (especialmente esa misma melodía más adelante en la canción pero ahora con una guitarra eléctrica), me parte el corazón. Es una canción intencionadamente triste y yo lo puedo sentir (más aún si piensas en la muerte de Spock y al resto de la tripulación sufriendo su pérdida) 🥺

To the crew:

Ahora que está todo en silencio

Y que la calma me besa el corazón

Os quiero decir adiós

Porque ha llegado la hora

De que andéis el camino ya sin mí

Hay tanto por lo que vivir

Now that all is silent

And calm kisses my heart

I want to say goodbye

Because the time has come

For you to walk the road without me

There is so much to live for

To McCoy:

Pero, mi vida, yo nunca podré olvidarte

Y solo el viento sabe lo que has sufrido por amarme

Hay tantas cosas que nunca te dije en vida

Que eres todo cuanto amo

Y ahora que ya no estoy junto a ti

Te cuidaré desde aquí

But, my dear, I can never forget you

And only the wind knows what you've suffered for loving me

There are so many things I never told you in life

That you're all that I love

And now that I'm no longer with you

I'll watch over you from here

To the crew:

Sé que la culpa os acosa

Y os susurra al oído: "pude hacer más"

No hay nada que reprochar

I know that guilt haunts you

And whispers in your ear: "I could have done more"

There is nothing to reproach

Y cuando todos los instrumentos están sonando al final, de repente todo para y quien canta dice:

Yo nunca os olvidaré

And when all the instruments are being played at the end, everything stops and who is singing says:

I'll never forget you (in plural)

🥺😭

The only thing I can tell is 💕💕

On Leonard McCoy

An old rant I made dedicated to my favorite doctor

You see, I have fallen in love with every single one of the characters in Star Trek, they all have such diverse personalities and fun quirks that makes them so enjoyable to watch, read about, and even just think about.

They have become iconic through generations, and I love every single one of them. And to think of the impact that they have achieved on the world and how society is today, is unbelievable. Truly incredible.

Now, with these said, I love all of them, but right now let me talk about our dear southern ol’ country doctor.

Dr. Leonard Horatio “Bones” McCoy, nicknamed bones (a variation of sawbones, a term used for doctors back in the day) by none other than his life long friend Jim Kirk.

He is wonderful. And he is a character that goes through so much pain. They all do, of course. Who can forget the racism Spock ensued, and the tragedy of seeing a massacre when Jim was still young. But right now, let’s tak about McCoy.

He was a simple man, an emotional and irrational man in comparison to the logical Spock, who he always has philosophical arguments with (which I really enjoy watching), yet one of the smartest men in the Star Trek universe. In comparison to his colleagues, he is a simple man. He grew up on earth, studied to be a surgeon at a regular school, yet still with his incredible wit became the chief medical officer aboard the most famous spaceship in all the federation, the USS Enterprise.

As said, he has his friends and colleagues, yet something we are always able to tell, is the feeling of loneliness that bones always carries around with him. He has an ex-wife, and a daughter that barely speaks to him. Apart from his crew mates, he is utterly alone. And him, being such a warm, kind hearted, caring, and loving individual, doesn’t let show how badly the lack of romantic love in his life affects him. Which it does. So much that in the last episode I watched “for the world is hollow and I have touched the sky” he was about to marry a woman he has just met, just because she was besotted with him and because he was convinced he was going to die of a terminal illness and his whole life had been lived without love. Nothing shows how badly alone a person has felt their whole life, than this. An excerpt taken directly from the episode:

NATIRA: You have lived a lonely life? 
MCCOY: Yes, very lonely.

It is probably because of this loneliness, that he carries himself around with a grumpy exterior. But anyone that knows him, knows that is not how he really is. This man always carries himself with such joy when it comes to his patients and his friends. A truly remarkable trait. Something I personally admire deeply.

Apart form his sadness and grumpiness, what this shows is that Bones is the most human of them all. Jim and Spock, even with Spock not even being a human, assert their humanity a lot, which is wonderful. But out of the three of them, the one that was created to act as a moral compass, and the heart, was bones. He is the most human of them all, and I like to show these with quotes said directly by him.

“"Jim, every doctor and nurse from here to the Rim lives in hope that one day we'll wake up and find that everybody in the Universe is perfectly healthy and in possession of a signed certificate from God saying that they're going to die peacefully in their sleep. Then we can all retire and go fishing”

"You see, I feel sorrier for you than I do for him because you'll never know the things that love can drive a man to. The ecstasies, the miseries, the broken rules, the desperate chances, the glorious failures, the glorious victories. All of these things you'll never know simply because the word love isn't written into your book."

Apart form this, it has been shown countless times, that he has a strict moral compass which he follows even more than the rules, something a true heart would do

"To blazes with regulations! You can't let him take command when you know he's wrong." - McCoy to Spock on Commodore Decker

He is human, kind, caring, intelligent, and very very fun. He is a joy to watch on screen and the way he interacts with other characters just gives me life.

And yet again, he always feels alone. No love in his life, except for the few people that appreciate him and have the pleasure of calling themselves his friends.

I cannot explain, but he is wonderful, a role model, someone we should all aspire to be. And my feelings towards him are those of deep rooted admiration. He always manages to make me smile.

And so here, I leave one of my favorite inspirational quotes said by him:

"In this galaxy there's a mathamatical probability of three million Earth type planets. And in all of the universe, three million million galaxies like this. And in all of that... and perhaps more... only one of each of us."

I have ranted too much. Do forgive me.

this mental image hit me like a truck and i had no choice but to make it real

is this anything? i find it hilarious. i was just minding my business when this exact scene appeared behind my eyes and in my ears. i hope i did it justice and at least one person finds it as funny as i did.

Remember being in middle school or whatever and just drawing eyes all over your assignments? Haha, yeah.

Anyways here's the Star Trek Original Series cast in watercolors
