memes and pon farr
2/12/09 10:14So I put my name into the fanfiction love meme here. Now, you might be saying to yourself, "pearl, didn't you just post a link to one of those memes yesterday?" And the answer is yes. Yes, I did. But this is a different one, okay? And I'm feeling shameless and pathetic, and I figure ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
just_katarin is already judging me, so a little bit more isn't going to hurt, right? Right.
More Star Trek news: along with "What Little Girls Are Made Of" I've also finished "All My Yesterdays" (which was very Bones/Spock, which I normally don't even see, since I'm not big on the pairings; "Charlie X" (which I HATED); and "The Cloud Minders". That last one I think I enjoyed more than it actually deserved, and I'm not totally sure why. It didn't hurt that Kirk's plan was not only incredibly stupid, but had a IN EPISODE REASON for being so stupid -- and then worked anyway, of course. I'm still feeling very WTF over Spock calmly discussing pon farr with a random chick he just met though, because ... seriously, WTF.
I was commenting inbasingstoke's journal yesterday, I think, and we got onto the subject of pon farr, and I was trying to explain how confused the canon on it makes me. ( Spoilers for Amok Time, Search for Spock, and Star Trek (2009) )
ANYWAY. Did you guys know it's DECEMBER already? I know, right?fox1013 is turning 25 on Tuesday, and I'm turning 25 the Sunday after that. In less than four weeks I have a happy_coconut! Now if only I had a job visible in the distance, things would be good.
