lets do a belated meme while i write just...so many tags and open prompts

Velma is not good at fashion

So something he finds respectable and with a fabric that isn't a sensory nightmare. no gloves

probably blues and greens

greens to match any cute blushes she might manage to actually drag out of him

god, jim also has no sense of fashion, sorry for your luck, spock. but if he's dressing him, odds are he's dragged him to his family farm back in iowa and they're gonna be rock-climbing or horse-riding or something equally active, so probably climbing gear or sturdy jeans and sensible long-sleeved shirts.

he's not in game (yet), but he'd just take one look at the city's fashion and go this is all impractical

just wear something comfortable, if you can find anything

i mean for dup, assless chaps ARE practical.

(also hi are you the jim on the tdm? if so can i throw velma his way?)

i am!! and yes, feel free!

huzzah now just... how awkward do we want to make this given her cr with spock

Schist: oh no green is cute. just emerald outfits so it's deeply apparent that he's flustered

perilous: The idea of Spock in jeans and a comfortable t-shirt/flannel combo is both sending me and immediately makes me imagine

LMAO THE VIBE

he was instructed to split wood

he was unaware that an axe was provided

hold on i have something for this

wheezes

i give you jim looking like the gayest version of cowboy han solo and spock in flannel

why does kirk look like fred from scooby doo

it's fred solo kirk

I HAVE NO IDEA, this was even like.. a 2020s comic run

because han was my second thought with the side detail

the vest, too

also what's going on with spock's pants

true!

WHY IS HE WEARING KHAKIS AND A BIG BELT BUCKLE

there's a lot to unpack with these fashion choices

comics artists plz

good ol TOS era fashion choices

jim dressed him!! this is how jim dresses people in iowa!! i lose it every time i see it

wait what this was 2020 how

a;lskd;jf

this is supposed to be post-year-five, just before jim reluctantly takes his promotion

we have han solo at home

he was like you're coming back to iowa with me and spock was like ok

i can't even judge dumb southern/midwestern fashion

there are some good panels in the comic, but this wasn't one of them

because this is canon still

comic artists (american, derrogatory) are hopeless fashion failures

sad but true

TO BE FAIR THIS IS SHIT SOUTHERNERS/MIDWESTIES WEAR

also true

as a southerner myself

no points for accuracy, i have lived in the south

I would forgive this only if that crop top had a college football decal on it

it is true

highschool also acceptable

both acceptable

crop tops are acceptable always

but also like, her and her husband crop top it up.

wait i figured it out, jim and spock look like a display from the gene autry museum

omg

WHEEZE

tbf most of that comic run is actually really good, you just have to occasionally ignore the fashion

i need to read trek comics, especially jaylah ones

i don't really follow AOS, but the more recent IDW trek comics have been incredible. old man spock is definitely fucking worf in them.

and lore is being a super obsessive creep over data, which is my aesthetic

GOD SORRY, i've derailed this plurk

i do love nerds

i came in here and unsurprisingly exxie is being exxie about lore again

(ilu exxie)

i just love him so much, he's the worst

perilous: Old man spock is fucking who now

also never apologize

for derailing or lore obsessively fixating on data

spock joins the defiant crew and acts as worf's first officer and the TENSION 🤌

Excellent.

i'm like you know what spock, you've been a widower for decades, you deserve a little klingon dick as a treat

okay but imagine spock in some mirror!bullshit amount of leather

endtransmission: i am a simple woman who just wants to see a vulcan in that layered black and gold leather + textured pauldrons look.

philippa manages a boutique in dup we could make it happen

he does need an outfit that isn't his science blues

not making it to the 32nd century meant he never got cool leather looks. (i understand why spock could not go, i'm just offended that there was no cool leather looks)

cool leather looks are my vote too

rogue should swing by philippa's boutique

perilous: could i maybe add you on plurk if you're going to be apping to dup ?

Schist: always welcome

also someone put velma in something entirely out of her comfort zone but also very sexy and functional

(same. he deserved to serve in those nivar robes or in some wild future leather gear)

But yes, i am absolutely down for him dropping by her shop

the nivar robes were so good!!!

Schist oh yeah, go for it

say what you will about romulans, some of their fashion is pretty excellent

(some of their fashion is also a crime against good taste everywhere but lets not discuss those)

if that's not trek fashion in a nutshell idk what is

equal split between fly as hell and why are you doing this

unless you're quark and then it's both simultaneously
