WHAT EVEN WAS THIS SEASON PREMIER? AAAAH?

Like okay, I didn't have any specific expectations aside from planning to enjoy it immensely, but just? What? How? My expectations for the rest of the season have just skyrocketed.

I didn't expect to get so many action scenes with Christine. I didn't expect Spock to be so… Um, I'm sorry but absolutely cute in the beginning and somehow even more clueless than he usually is. I absolutely loved the first scene on the bridge with the crew and the reunion with La'an.

BUT ALL THE SPAPEL MY GOD! I initially had no plans to vid after 2x01 because I thought we'll get the best Spock and Christine together and separate scenes like… Later? But I have no idea what can top this episode. It was so beautifully painful to watch.

The whole second half of the episode absolutely killed me. Spock postponing shooting the ship with Christine for as long as he could? Spock literally closing his eyes unable to look once he had to give the order? And then forcing himself to open them and look at the wreckage knowing he might have just killed her? THE HELL. THE ACTUAL HELL. Ethan did absolutely amazing in those closeups like WOW. And then the, 'I waited for you', 'You do not die!' scene ahhhh.

I mean I know Spapel is technically not canon later down the line but there's absolutely no way they don't diverge with those two. Spock is so in love with her at this point it's like impossible to go the 'Christine has unrequired feelings later on' route.

No idea how they'll top 2x01 but I’m so looking forward to finding out. I mean at least we're also getting another kiss and them floating in space judging by the trailers, soooo. :D

Side note: I've been dying to use this quote from Discovery from the beginning and I'll probably use it in the future as well. I don't like Discovery that much but I've seen the first two seasons and this quote is just an absolute gem for any and all vids including Spock. xD Also yes, solo Spock and Christine and maybe La'an vids are definitely coming some time in the future.
