friend, brother and lover. Spock’s recollection (from which this chapter has drawn) is that it was a most difficult moment for him since he did indeed consider Kirk to have become his brother. However, because t’hy’la can be used to mean lover, and since Kirk’s and Spock’s friendship was unusually close, this has led to some speculation over whether they had actually indeed become lovers. At our request, Admiral Kirk supplied the following comment on this subject: “I was never aware of this lovers rumor, although I have been told that Spock encountered it several times. Apparently he had always dismissed it with his characteristic lifting of his right eyebrow which usually connoted some combination of surprise, disbelief, and/or annoyance. As for myself, although I have no moral or other objections to physical love in any of its many Earthly, alien, and mixed forms, I have always found my best gratification in that creature woman. Also, I would dislike being thought of as so foolish that I would select a love partner who came into sexual heat only once every seven years.”

From Letters of Note: in which it is revealed that space husbands exists at least in part because Gene Roddenberry was like, Jeez Isaac Asimov how do I make Kirk more likeable? And Asimov was like, You should probably make him really obsessed with Spock. Yeah, people will like that. And have them save each other’s lives more? And dress up in weird outfits. For mission reasons. I don’t know just make sure that it’s impossible to think about one of them without thinking about the other. Now go do what I said I’m the master of hard science fiction I know what I’m talking about.
(Also, in which many jokes are made at the expense of William Shatner[’s ego].)
