I've been shipping K/S since I was a kid and I think S/U is TOTALLY cute. (and maybe Into Darkness gave me OT3 feelings, maybe)

(Anonymous) 2013-09-13 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)Honestly I have OT3'd to solve a shipping problem before but this time it wasn't even like thaaaat, in the first movie I was thrown by Spock/Uhura at first and I didn't really FEEL it but was okay with it. It was cute, it was like they were building on those early TOS episodes when Uhura would flirt with Spock a little and he'd just eyebrow at her, and it's an ALTERNATE universe, and also we could see Uhura being an awesome girlfriend and see Spock leaning on her in a moment of emotional turmoil so I was like "aww! Okay =)"
Then Into Darkness happened. And it had way more problems than the first movie did, but it also had Kirk and Uhura having a bonding moment over both of them loving Spock but him driving them FUCKING NUTS sometimes, and then her dragging Kirk into a fight between her and Spock so he could back her up (his reaction only made it better: "hey, don't drag me into this! .....but she is right, you know.") This isn't just about them reacting to Spock either, by this movie Kirk has not only earned Uhura's respect but now they're friends to a level where they can be real with each other about shit they don't wanna talk about to other people! The whole movie was Kirk making friendly overtures towards Spock, trying to get him to open up, and Spock not knowing how to deal until the very end (spoilers!) (the death scene had problems and I recognize this....but it also, to me, made so many other problems suddenly worth it because the ways it was different from the Wrath of Khan scene, but also the ways it was the same, gave me a truckload of feelings. I also felt like for Spock, the guy who in the Original Series got essentially space-drunk on some space parasite with the rest of the crew and while everybody else was singing or fighting or running around being dorks he locked himself into a room and cried because he never just LET himself feel his feelings. Who then said to Kirk "when I feel feelings of friendship for you, I'm ashamed" - for that guy, it made PERFECT SENSE that he would spend the whole movie not quite sure how to deal with Kirk mading light elbows towards friendship and then all of a sudden now that he's about to die it would suddenlty hit him right in the face what he's about to lose), and then it had Spock reeling from this revelation and Kirk's subsequent death, and then literally look to Uhura for what to do about Cumberbatch (because the scene focused on Kirk and Spock, we haven't really seen anyone else reacting to Kirk's death) and Uhura is just like "Spock, FIND HIM AND KILL HIM." I HAVE AN OT3 IN THIS ALTERNATE UNIVERSE AND THAT'S ALL THERE IS TO IT
(Lol this comment was supposed to be like 2, maybe 3 sentences)

I mean, I watched the movie more than once but still couldn't quite express this (I'm kinda dumb about people and relationships, there's no suprise here)

(Anonymous) 2013-09-13 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)Now, THAT RIGHT THERE is a problem some people have with the relationship that I actually understand, that she's a student and he's a TA of some kind and so they're not on equal footing and it could be creepy. I get that. I have felt that as an impediment to other ships (Jeff/Annie, hiiii!) But the reason I don't feel it here is because I find it so obvious that she was the one who pursued him. Look at the way she defends herself in the "no. I'm assigned to the Enterprise" scene. This girl is not afraid to go for what she wants and i could see him refusing her at first because it's inappropriate because of his position, but hello, it's Uhura. She's kind of enchanting.

(Anonymous) 2013-09-13 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)because I read the awful comics that are apparently canon (if Orci says so) I want to add that:
1) yes, she was the one who asked him out the first time and she did that only when he WASN'T her teacher anymore and their relationship was allowed
because I'm a good girl I'll share the scan with you:

2) yes, Spock was betrothed to T'pring (not married) in this timeline too BUT he "broke up" with her - they were frands and she isn't a bitch in this reality - when he left vulcan and went to the academy so that she could be free to choose another (good boy) therefore he was free to do the same when he met the goddesses that Uhura is
