Creo Que Nunca Me He Presentado... Ya Va Siendo Hora

Hoy me sentía con ganas de dibujar abrazos. Quería que Spock y McCoy se dieran algo de cariño. De cinco dibujos que he hecho hoy, solo tres son de abrazos. Tenía pensado que fueran todos, pero se me desvío la mente 😏😆

Today I felt like drawing hugs. I wanted Spock and McCoy to give each other some love. Out of five drawings I've done today, only three are hugs. I had planned to be all of them hugs, but my mind got sidetracked 😏😆

Las últimas dos imágenes son NSFW. Pongo un "Seguir leyendo" para que nadie se sorprenda demasiado (lo estoy poniendo peor de lo que en realidad es. No hay nada explícito).

The last two images are NSFW. I put a "Continue reading" so that no one is too surprised (I'm making it worse than it really is. There is nothing explicit).

No tenía pensado que las imágenes siguieran un orden en los acontecimientos, pero lo parece, y eso me gusta

I didn't plan for the images to follow an order of events, but they seem to, and I like that

McCoy se da cuenta de que hay dos Spock en la nave, y uno de ellos es el del Imperio Terrano. Recuerda perfectamente el día en que fue transportado por error al otro universo, y también su experiencia con el otro Spock.

McCoy realises that there are two Spocks on the ship, and one of them is from the Terran Empire. He remembers vividly the day he was transported by mistake to the other universe, and also his experience with the other Spock.

Es misterioso, siniestro, impredecible. ¿Qué querrá hacerle? Sabe que no puede oponer resistencia, esperemos que la suerte esté de su lado.

He is mysterious, sinister, unpredictable. What will he want to do to him? He knows he can't resist, so let's hope luck is on his side.

Mi regalo de Navidad ha sido una tableta gráfica. Es genial porque ahora podré practicar 😄. Este dibujo es el primero que hice.

My Christmas present was a graphics tablet. It's great because now I can practice 😄. This drawing is the first one I made.

No quiero hacer spoiler, pero he querido dibujar una escena de una de las continuaciones del cómic que estoy dibujando del Mirrorverse 😉. Hablando del cómic, a ver si subo las siguientes páginas, que entre las vacaciones y los exámenes no he tenido mucho tiempo (siempre me pasa lo mismo 😔)...

I don't want to make spoiler, but I wanted to draw a scene from one of the continuations of the comic I'm drawing of the Mirrorverse 😉. Speaking of the comic, let's see if I upload the next pages, because due to holidays and exams I haven't had much time (as always 😔)...

He quedado satisfecha con las rocas. Es la primera vez que intento dibujarlas, y es complicado, pero por algo se empieza.

I am satisfied with the rocks. It's the first time I've tried to draw them, and it's complicated, but that's a start.

I LOVE the dedication needed in this post.

Truly, Spones is a very underrated ship. It is even less famous than McKirk (Bones x Kirk). (Acording to some surveys, people make more fanart of McKirk than Spones)

This post gave me so many warm feelings, it's pure gold!

Thanks for taking your time doing it!

🥰🥰😊

Why Spones is a top-tier ship

AKA “the inherent homoeroticism of annoying the shit out of your co-worker.”

Spock and McCoy have a complicated relationship. A lot of their bickering and ideological differences lead fans to believe that they hate each other, but that’s an over-simplification of the truth. The reality is that Spock and McCoy are extremely close friends who care about each other deeply. Though sometimes their bickering turns serious during stressful situations, for the most time they seem to enjoy the banter. A common mischaracterization of their relationship seems to put McCoy as the bully and Spock as the victim. In truth, there are many times where Spock will say something specifically to get a rise out of McCoy. They fight. That’s how they show affection, not disdain. In fact, one could argue that some of their bantering have a flirtatious tone to it.

Kirk: Mister Spock, regaining eyesight would be an emotional experience for most. You, I assume, felt nothing.

Spock: On the contrary Captain. I had a very strong reaction. My first sight was the face of Doctor McCoy bending over me.

McCoy: ‘Tis a pity brief blindness didn’t increase your appreciation for beauty, Spock. (Operation – Annihilate!)

Bueno, ya he acabado de pensar la historia y de hacer en sucio el cómic que previamente mencioné hace un tiempo.

Well, I've finished the story and sketching the comic I previously mentioned a while ago.

Esta sería la portada (no sé cómo dibujar a Jim, pero esta es la vez en la que más se parece)

This would be the cover (I don't know how to draw Jim, but this is the time he looks the most like him)

Tittle: 'Guilty by accident'

Spones in the Mirrorverse (part 1)

Esta primera parte trata de cómo Spock investiga un asesinato (y no quiero hacer spoiler así que mejor no digo más). Quiero que quede claro que yo no soy escritora, así que no os esperéis una obra maestra de la narrativa 😆

This first part is about how Spock investigates a murder (and I don't want to make spoiler, so I won't say more). I want to make it clear that I'm not a writer, so don't expect a masterpiece of storytelling 😆

Se supone que es de Spones, y me he centrado en la relación que tienen en el universo del Mirror. Ya tengo pensadas las continuaciones a este cómic, por eso pone primera parte (tengo pensada hasta una quinta parte)

It's supposed to be about Spones, and I've focused on the relationship they have in the Mirrorverse. I've already thought about the continuations to this comic, that's why it says first part (I have up to a fifth part)

No sé muy bien cómo subir el cómic, si subir de una en una las páginas o hasta que haya un corte de escena. Creo que subiré cuatro páginas cada vez (lo que para mí equivale a un folio). Esta historia tiene 35 folios (y aún no he empezado a transcribirla, empiezo hoy. Según vaya acabando cada folio, lo subo)

I'm not sure how to upload the comic, whether to upload one page at a time or until there's a cut scene. I think I'll upload four pages at a time (which is equivalent to one sheet for me). This story is 35 sheets long (and I haven't started transcribing it yet, I'm starting today. As I finish each page, I'll upload it)

Además, tan solo subiré la versión en inglés (con los diálogos traducidos del español) para que no se haga pesado leer la traducción fuera de lo que es el dibujo. Si alguien quiere que también suba la original en español, que me lo diga, no tengo problema (solo lo subo en inglés porque la gran mayoría de gente no habla español y entiende mejor el inglés, pero si alguien me avisa, también lo subo en español)

Moreover, I will only upload the English version (with the dialogues translated from Spanish) so that you don't have to read the translation outside of the drawing. If someone wants me to upload the original in Spanish, let me know, I have no problem (I only upload it in English because most people don't speak Spanish and understand English better, but if someone tells me, I'll upload it in Spanish too)

THE BIG VULCAN BIOLOGY POST (aka Vulcan is a Hell Planet)

DISCLAIMER: I am not a biologist, astrophysicist, neurologist, animal psychologist or literally anything that would qualify me to talk about this with 100% confidence. This is the result of dozens of headcanons and obsessive deep dive research. I don’t want this post to be three miles long, so after I address the planetary stuff I will oblige y’all with a Read More.

Adsfasdkfjhaslkdfh I’ve been working on this post for almost a month SO HERE WE GO!

First of all, Vulcan (aka T’Khasi) is a HELL PLANET, which is part of the reason they’re so badass, I say this for the following reasons:

No moon(s) (natural satellites)

Sodium (Salt) is so rare on the planet that Vulcan’s oceans are freshwater

It’s a “Super-Earth” (as in big chonkin’ planet of similar composition to earth in the “goldilocks region”)

Let’s do this.

“Vulcan has no moon Ms. Uhura.”

-Spock, The Man Trap

Tons of things change about our planet if there was no moon:

Much darker nights (no moonlight)

Much lower sea levels since there is no gravity from the moon to pull it upward.

Lower and weaker tides because the water is pulled by the sun instead of the moon, and it depends on how large the Vulcan solar system’s sun is for how big the waves are.

Stronger winds from faster planet rotation.

Depending on whether the axis of the planet would straighten or tilt further without the moon’s pull, combined with the faster rotation would lead to more severe seasons (strong tilt) or no seasons at all (no tilt)

The first factor may lead to Vulcan eyes being very catlike even if they aren’t nocturnal (I think they’re crepesucular but we’ll get into that later). Which given the likely nature of their blood and their herbivorous eating habits they probably aren’t. The sky would still be so dark that our human eyes couldn’t even see our hands in front of us, being blind when the sun goes down could be a death sentence. Alternatively, if they didn’t develop strong night vision that may be one of the reasons why they have such strong senses of hearing.

The stronger winds, faster rotation, and stronger (or nonexistent) seasons come from the lack of resistance and friction that stronger tides and the moon’s pull create on our planet. I suspect that Vulcan is larger, or at least denser than Earth, but I’ve been informed that according to the TMP novelization that it does rotate faster. I also think that Vulcan’s tilt is on the more extreme end to get the hostile extremes like storms and heat that we see on Vulcan.

If you look at this image of Vulcan, water covers way less of the planet’s surface than Earth. I don’t think this is necessarily because Vulcan has less water, but that it isn’t spread as far because of the lack of moon, and the fact that the oceans are freshwater, I’ll get into that shortly.

“My ancestors spawned from a different ocean than yours.”

-Spock, The Man Trap

In the Star Trek: The Original Series (third) pilot The Man Trap, there is a creature that kills its victims by draining their bodies completely of salt. Spock encounters the creature but does not die, implying his (and Vulcans overall) body contains little to no salt. His justification is that his species did not evolve from a salinized ocean.

What does it mean to have oceans with no salt?

This has to mean that sodium is a very rare mineral on Vulcan, as the reason our oceans are so salinized is due to erosion of minerals by rainfall, carried from river to ocean. Salt in the ocean is also generated by submarine volcanic activity, which means either that the volcanoes on Vulcan (which we definitely know exist) somehow don’t produce salt, or the vast majority of the submarine volcanoes have been inactive for millions if not billions of years. The active volcanoes on Vulcan must be very far inland and/or Vulcan has almost no rivers, which given how hot the planet is, wouldn’t actually be too much of a stretch of the imagination.

Which means every single lifeform on T’Khasi, including Vulcans, evolved biosystems that exist without (or with very little) salt content. Any salt that exists would likely be deep beneath the planet’s surface, and within volcanoes.

No saltwater has a ton of consequences:

Plants (like underwater algae) are rarer and may not photosynthesize the same way Earth plants do, meaning less oxygen and more carbon dioxide, which means more greenhouse effect, which means higher temperatures.

The lack of salt would also mean less diverse plant life (at least as humans know it) and given the lack of visible rivers and vast swaths of desert on Vulcan, we can safely say vegetation must be hardier and infrequent.

Lower sea levels as the oceans would have lower density due to lack of salt.

Little to no water convection, which salt is crucial for on Earth. Which means warm ocean water doesn’t move to cold regions and vice versa. Creating extremes, the equator being obscenely hot, and polar waters freezing at the poles more extensively.

Lack of convection means more frequent and stronger storms like hurricanes.

If you thought the lack of a moon made Vulcan inhospitable, compound it with the low sodium factor and you’ve got a planet of even more severe extremes than before. The heat, and the decrease of plant diversity definitely explain why the vast majority of Vulcan is rocky desert, even being near the water poses more extreme dangers than it would on earth due to the increased frequency of hurricanes.

“Mr. Spock is much stronger than an ordinary human being.”

-Kirk, This Side of Paradise

I am almost 100% sure that Vulcan is either bigger or denser than Earth. Which would explain why Vulcans are so much stronger than Humans and other species that exist on similar gravity worlds.

Effects of a high-gravity planet or “Super-Earth” include:

Everything is shorter or has very strong foundations, plants, animals, structures, and people.

More “Armageddon” class asteroids would hit the planet (like the one that killed the dinosaurs and created the Gulf of Mexico)

Larger liquid mantle under the planet’s surface, higher pressure under the surface as well.

Weaker magnetic field due to lack of convection in the planet’s core (not to be confused with the mantle interacting with the planet’s crust). Which means a weaker atmosphere, lower magnetism in surface metals, and increased vulnerability to solar flares.

More volcanically and seismically active due the the increase in the mantle’s size and generated heat, more earthquakes, and more volcanic eruptions.

Would have to have a smaller sun but be closer in orbit to it than earth.

Extremely deep oceans, potentially with water under so much pressure at the bottom that it becomes solid like ice. Luckily Vulcan is not an ocean world, because the pressure would block the planet’s core from interacting with the atmosphere, which would prevent life as we know it from happening.

There is plenty of evidence for this on so many levels. We never see any plant life similar to trees on Vulcan. Nor animals significantly larger than Vulcans, the ones that are bigger are much more muscular. Vulcan’s sky is more red than blue because of the lack of oxygen molecules for the light from the sun to filter as blue. I actually headcanon that Spock is unusually tall for a Vulcan because of his human heritage (Leonard Nimoy was around 6ft tall) , and may have had heart and muscle problems in his teens and early adulthood while on Vulcan.

Perhaps Vulcans are the result of many more extinction level events than we are, contributing to their hardiness. Perhaps they are, evolutionarily, not too much older than we are, and had more incentive to develop extraterrestrial technology than we have, so that they could repel Armageddon Class meteors and defend their planet against Solar Flares? Space travel being born out of self-preservation rather than curiosity. Which would absolutely account for their attitudes in the beginning of Star Trek: Enterprise.

It could be that Vulcans still maintain a semi-nomadic lifestyle even today because their planet is so incredibly volatile. Unsentimental and utilitarian in anything less than the most sacred of architecture long before they adopted the teachings of Surak. Their own survival more valuable than any structure that would inevitably be damaged or destroyed by their planet’s harsh environment.

In summary, Vulcan is a Nightmare Planet because:

So, so many much natural disasters, like, so many, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, hurricanes, twisters, just, so many more than Earth.

Water is relegated to specific locations in the world rather than spread across it due to lack of flow and lower sea levels.

Extreme temperature changes, intense heat, intense cold, hard to breathe, stronger gravity.

Due to the planet’s hostility, there is a smaller diversity of life than we have here on earth, which means fewer and hardier food sources that, like Vulcans, are very difficult to kill.

So… How do they handle it? What features have they developed to adapt and thrive in such an inhospitable place?

First thing is first, lets talk about

Tengo un headcanon de Spones en el Mirrorverse:

I have a Spones headcanon in the Mirrorverse:

McCoy tiene un poco de miedo de Spock, porque normalmente le ve torturar a gente con el agonizador y todo eso. Además, hay que admitir que con ese traje, la barba y el hecho de ser vulcaniano, impone bastante. Bones no se atreve mucho a llevarle la contraria, por mucho que Spock esté equivocado. Y cada vez que se dirige a él con un tono enfadado, McCoy prefiere callarse. Esto no ocurre siempre, claro.

McCoy is a bit afraid of Spock, because he usually sees him torturing people with the agoniser and things like that. Besides, we have to admit that with that suit, the beard and the fact that he's Vulcan, he's pretty imposing. Bones doesn't really dare to contradict him, no matter how wrong Spock is. And whenever he addresses him in an angry tone, McCoy prefers to keep quiet. This doesn't always happen, of course.

Por su parte, Spock, después de un tiempo, se da cuenta del temor que infunde en el doctor, y en muchas ocasiones lo aprovecha para meterse con él (aunque solo sea una broma, McCoy se lo toma en serio). Sin embargo, a largo plazo, intenta hacer que Bones deje de tenerle miedo, porque, de alguna manera, le ha cogido demasiado cariño y ya no disfruta como antes el hacerle sufrir tanto. No tiene éxito.

For his part, Spock, after a while, realises the fear he instils in the doctor, and often takes advantage of it to tease him (although it's just a joke, McCoy takes it seriously). In the long run, however, he tries to make Bones stop being afraid of him, because, somehow, he has grown too fond of him and no longer enjoys making him suffer as much as he used to. He doesn't succeed.

Una vez que se lo encuentra por la nave, Spock empieza una conversación con él, y a propósito, empieza a decir cosas que están mal, como que el dolor de cabeza es porque te abdujeron de pequeño. Al ver que McCoy no le reprocha la tontería que acaba de decir, toma cartas en el asunto y va directo al grano (pongo "Seguir leyendo" para que no se haga muy largo el post) :

Once he meets him around the ship, Spock strikes up a conversation with him, and on purpose, he starts saying things that are wrong, like that the headache is because you were abducted as a child. Seeing that McCoy doesn't reproach him for the nonsense he just said, he takes matters into his own hands and gets straight to the point (I put a "Read more" so that the post isn't too long):

McCoy se queda a la vez sorprendido e indeciso sobre qué pensar ahora sobre Spock. Lo más probable es que más tarde vaya a preguntale por qué hizo eso 😄

McCoy is both surprised and undecided about what to think about Spock now. Most likely later he'll go ask him why he did that 😄

Por cristinardvaya

McCoy aprovecha cualquier momento para picar a Spock. Está simplemente bromeando, pero los vulcanianos no bromean. Eso a veces le toma por sorpresa.

McCoy takes advantage of any moment to tease Spock. He's just joking, but Vulcans don't joke. This sometimes takes him by surprise.
