Great work! I really like that it feature Pike...I love that moment when he's being rescued and shoots the Romulan Kirk doesn't see. I though this was really well done, flowed smoothly, colour and quality good, music worked in meaning and tempo ... you touched all the bases.

[reogulus]

thank you so much! :DDDD
pike is such a bamf, and his interaction with kirk is a great addition to the reboot. he deserves more credit (and love) than he's given.

I need to get used to the song, but yay, great editing. I'm a big Pike fan (in many combinations, but Pike/Kirk is special) and you did a lovely job showing their connection ♥

[reogulus]

Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the editing, I had a lot of fun making this. The song might have sounded a bit choppy since I shortened it by almost a minute, but I hope it will grow on you :)

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD

REO BABY I CAN'T EVEN

YOU MADE ME A FANVID

Excuse me for a moment while I spin around in dizzy circles and faint and then revive and scream until my lungs give out because I LOVE YOU BEYOND WORDS

At first I was like, what even is this song, why? And then I kept watching and the more I watched the more the kind of bittersweet-ish mellowness of it ended up fitting and oh god I could watch this over and over and over for hours and OH GOD I JUST. All those little moments of captaincy and command and how great is 0:35 where it goes right from Pike's dare into Kirk rescuing him from the Narada and you know when Pike left on that shuttlecraft he didn't think he was coming back and I could write a whole essay here about Pike and George Kirk but let's not even get into that oh god oh god I can't you should see my face right now. Or you shouldn't, my expression would scare you

HUGSSSSSSSSSSS CUDDLESSSSSSS SQUEEZESSSSSSSSSS

YOU KNOW YOU'RE WORTH IT HONEY. I'M BEYOND ECSTATIC THAT YOU LIKE THIS ♥ ♥ ♥ (no really you should see my face

because if kirk's dad left him a captain's chair, pike was the one who taught kirk how to sit on it

SDHKSKDGKJSHDKHGKHSDF THIS IS THE SINGLE GREATEST MOMENT OF POETRY

and right after pike taught him how to sit in the captain's chair, pike taught him how to bang in it

I think you have revived my lust love for this pairing and gosh, I need to finish all my WIPs for these guys. I just have so many feeling about them and what it means to be a captain and what it means to love a ship and to love space and to love your crew and to want to boldly go and oh god please stop me I'm having so many feels right now oh god oh god I can't. (sobs)

Sweetheart, you have no idea -- things have been so fucking crazy for me lately, and this vid and the fact that you took so much time to make it for me and how can you possibly be so kind and jhgkshdfkjhsg ACTUALLY TEARING UP RIGHT NOW. :'D YOU ARE SO AMAZING.

<3333333333

when the going gets tough, just press play :D i mean, i can't take away the crazy, but i can help you feel better while you sort it out, in whatever way i can. that's what friends are forrrrr

of course this vid is also a part of my giant conspiracy to fill you up with feels and squeeze more fic out of you (evil laugh) but omg the captain's chair on the xi!enterprise is not fixed on the floor according to chris pine and it often tips over during filming so now i'm imagining how this might factor into the captain's chair sex hahahahahaha just keep going on the floor i guess

[reogulus]
