I am, and shall always be...
May. 16th, 2009 04:52 pm"I have written,"
oliviacirce said, "an epic internal reflection on my relationship with Star Trek. I do not have a Star Trek icon to post it with, though."
"Well, that seems obvious given your relationship with Star Trek."
"Uh, yeah."
"When I complete my epic internal reflection on my relationship with Star Trek, it will include the fact that there is a signature in my 7th grade year book addressed to 'star trak[sic] girl.' Yours is somewhat different."
So, movie aside, I have been spiraling down into Star Trek fandom again. Star Trek was my first serious fandom (I spent several middle-school summers doing nothing but watching Trek and writing Mary Sue fanfic) but I left it behind rather drastically sometime my freshman year of high school, as season 7 of DS9 was wrapping up.
That being said, in the last two or three weeks, I've re-watched much of DS9 season 3 (and a smattering of episodes across seasons 2, 4 and 5), read Mike Ford's astoundingly awesome How Much for Just the Planet?, and well, hello, long-lost reaches of trek fic, here I am digging for you.
And also there was the movie, which I saw first at a grotty little London cinema and then again in (fake) IMAX with the younger sibling when I got back to San Francisco. And, um, also Countdown, the spin-off prequel comic for the movie. And the whole Yosemite sequence from Star Trek V, to show
oliviacirce the Kirk+Spock+McCoy dynamic in full swing.
( here there be emotions, and vague spoilers )
