Christopher Pike - Blog Posts
Favorite Captain?
Captain Christopher Pike 100%
Cowboy-ify one/some characters!!
the one on the top left was my first attempt lol so ignore that, but yeah, Pike's already a horse guy so cowboy-ifying him seemed like the logical choice🫡
Did anyone order some Christopher Pike fanart?
Ik noone did but this guy is too good for me not to draw him, here are some closeups:
some Star Trek doodles I did during a family reunion yesterday🫡 Here's a very rough sketch of the Enterprise too lol:
Captain Pike:
when hamsters are born they see a silver thread that connects them to their gruesome and peculiar death and they follow it like soldiers marching to war.
Neera is the baddest, the best part of this whole episode. I am so happy everyone came together to defend Una. Pike is a G for going to Illyria, and its inhospitable atmosphere, to help her :D I also love how this episode shows that laws NEED to change to accommodate the time and situations. Something that happened 200 years ago cannot have such a chokehold on our views in the present. UNA WHY WOULD YOU TURN YOURSELF IN, I mean I get it, BUT DAMN!
reminiscing about SNW hijinks, it's amazing that in real life I am demisexual AF, but when it comes to this crew I would be a massive whore. Would literally bust ass at Starfleet Academy to get onto the Enterprise for d*ck.
Where's Una!?!? Wait? Scotty!? :D SPOOOCCKKK no no no no no, please no
My literal first thought when Spock said he was Number One. I don't like this already. Jim Kirk is here, don't care though. Hopefully he doesn't become a central character next season. I still want this to be a Pike show. Onto what is really important, I can't believe Una was convicted :( That's some bigoted bullshit, I wonder who ratted her out (Side note, I know it's your job but Batel you bitch) That one Romulan captain is the GOAT. Goes to show there is always one good one in any species. We hope to see more of you in the future. Scotty!! I heard a Scottish accent. Wait... SPOOOOCCK no, please no I am literally having a panic attack. Ok he's better. That father and son ending between Spock and Pike is adorable. Glad to see Chris come to terms with his future, hopefully. aaaandd of course they fuck it up right at the end. Una baby we got your back. This Pike WILL NOT leave you on that penal colony, or I will have a conniption fit. This episode jerked my emotions all over the place, I cried, screamed, laughed for like half a second and then back to tears. This is Star Trek ladies and gentlemen. Hats off to a perfect first season. Until season 2, LLAP Enterprise crew🖖
Hemmer nooooooooo!!!
RIP to the best damn engineer I have ever seen. Yes even above Scotty, I SAID WHAT SAID, fight me, @ me! Why is everyone leaving me this episode, please understand Enterprise crew that you are all my emotional support starship crew. Why you want to leave me?! Anyways this episode was sad af, Hemmer died, La'an is leaving, 90 crew members lost their lives on the other starship. Damn. Still waiting on glimpse for the final episode and at this point I am afraid to watch it. I don't want this journey of hijinks to end :(
These two had me screech laughing the whole episode XD Though "Lord Rauth" is a little bitch for turning against his King like that. Nyota was SERVING as the evil queen, and Spock was actually serving her, hopefully she gave him that reward. 😜 Another wonderful banger of an episode that the cast looked like they had as much fun filming as I did watching it :D.
The ending for M'Benga's daughter though, girl I - 😢
Academy Era Mckirk
anyway here's my top 10 academy era mckirk recs enjoy.
Step 1: Enlist in Starfleet. Step 2: ????? Step 3: Profit. by hellostarling
Jim spends three years at the Academy, and he totally manages it all by himself. Well, Bones helps a little. Or a lot. Maybe.
This is Jim's Starfleet education and all that entails: the ups, the downs, the prank wars, the winter vacations, and the awkward boners.
Once More unto the Breach by AnEscapeFromReality
James Kirk was the rudest student Professor Heleine ever taught. He stomped out of the middle of the professor's lecture like he wasn't a mere cadet. Well, the professor was done putting up with him. If he couldn't sit through an expert lecture, then he should give the lecture about Tarsus. That would teach him some respect.
What Sulu Sees by IsmayDeVain
How Kirk Slowly Endears Himself to His Crew by Becoming a Human Punching Bag, Plunging off a 300 Foot Cliff, Getting Crushed by a Giant Ass Pipe, Nearly Getting Blown to Itty Bitty Bits, and Suffocating Because of His Own Medically Inept Body. (Although, not necessarily in that order.) Or five times Kirk puts his crew before himself and one time they return the favor.
(this is post Star Trek 2009, but it includes flashbacks to the academy so I'm counting it.)
Shelter by schweinsty
Five times Jim told someone about Tarsus IV, and one time they already knew.
The World May Never Know by SadieYuki
How many lies does it take to get to the center of a Jim Kirk?
Or, five times Jim Kirk hid the truth from Leonard McCoy, and one time he finally opened up.
Cpt C. Pike and C/ J.T. Kirk’s guide to unexpected Co-Habitation by InsaneSociopath
When the Admiralty first delivered their ultimatum, Chris Pike didn't know who ought to be more offended; Jim Kirk, for being treated as if he were incapable of being independent despite being twenty-two and a certified genius; or Chris himself, for not getting any choice in who lived in his spare bed room for the next twelve months dammit!
Or: Things Captain Christopher Pike learns about both himself and Cadet James T Kirk during their (not so) brief period of (initially) forced co-habitation.
Leonard H. McCoy's Guide to Keeping a Friend by highschool-facelesshellion (mutalune)
Leonard came to Starfleet with nothing except a half-finished degree and an empty bottle of cheap booze. It took him months to realize he had a best friend waiting in the wings for him to get his act together.
Or: How Leonard made a best friend by being an unobservant but decent person and how his conscience wouldn't let him be undeserving of the kid's freak affection.
Quirks and Their Side Effects by highschool-facelesshellion (mutalune)
Jim Kirk's always been a weirdo.
Leonard could use some more weird.
The Little Things by summoner_yuna_of_besaid
Jim thinks about how he came to this moment: how he just happened to go and visit Bones when the man was with a patient diagnosed with ADHD who was looking to refill his medication. Funny, he thinks as more tears roll down his face and his lips tremble, how the most innocuous little things can change your life, forever.
...
In which Jim Kirk learns about himself and his mind, struggles to understand it, and his friends and family help him handle the fall out.
Any Road Will Take You There by shoreleave
Slow-developing K/M, beginning right after the shuttle ride and showing what happens the first year at the Academy. Told from McCoy's POV.
