cathybitesI have now reached the point in the shiny new fandom where I am annoyed about the fact that there's not new fic for me to read every second of the day. or, well. There probably is, but I'm picky. or not even picky, I just don't want to read about Spock. There, I said it! I liked him, but have no interest in reading about his peen.
I am also still having problems with picturing Sulu in fic as John Cho. Like, I was never a big fan of TOS, so when I'm reading fic, I'm all, 'yes yes, McCoy is Karl Urban and Kirk is that blond pretty boy,' so on and so on with no problem. but when it comes to Sulu, there's, like, this sequence in my head that goes along the lines of, 'okay, John Cho is Sulu, but Sulu is Japanese, but John Cho is not = DOES NOT COMPUTE.' because, really. I think John Cho looks so Korean he could be selling Milkis on a restaurant calendar.
I suspect most people don't have this problem. SIGH.
Anyways, I wanted to share these two prompts from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
st_xi_kink because OMG SOMEBODY NEEDS TO WRITE THEM RIGHT NOW NOW NOW:
bah. I still need more ST icons. This one is close enough.
eta: AND OMG THIS: Kirk/Reaper(Karl Urban's character from Doom) On shore leave Kirk runs into a guy who looks a LOT like Bones (can be whatever reason, coincidence, relative) and things happen

st_xi_kink because OMG SOMEBODY NEEDS TO WRITE THEM RIGHT NOW NOW NOW:1. I first came to Starfleet on the trail of the killers of my father, and for reasons that don't need exploring at this juncture, have remained as an officer aboard the starship Enterprise.SERIOUSLY. These need to be written. NEEEEEEEEED.
2. Sirius Black/Leonard McCoy: Sirius falls through The Veil and, poof! All of the sudden he's on the USS Enterprise. Confusion, hilarity, and sexytimes ensue. (in the interest of full disclosure, this one is mine. so, y'know. WRITE IT.)
bah. I still need more ST icons. This one is close enough.

MAN, do I wish they'd taken his suggestion that Sulu's first name was Walter, or Bob or something. heh. Maybe I should just have Chekov calling him 'Bob'. XD
Well in non-canon, it now pops up in fanon as his middle name.
Chekov should totally have a special name for him. Something they both come up with while totally drunk *LOL*
Bob is also a great name for anything =P
think maybe also it has to do with, as far as I'm concerned, he's been far more visible lately, with Heroes and the things he's been doing for the gay community. I'm just more aware of him. XD
*nods* Yeah, he's been out an about a lot, which makes it harder.
By the by, Anton Yelchin is totally made of win for correcting interviewers who say he's the first real Russian to play Chekov and pointing out Koenig's parents were Russian Jews from Lithuanian. He gets all defensive on Koenig's behalf and it's adorable because he's tiny and cute ^__^
