Spirk

"You are closer to the captain than anyone in the universe."

- Kirk (in Janice Lester's body) to Spock, Turnabout Intruder

Spirk is the slash ship between James T. Kirk and Spock from the Star Trek fandom.

A Quality of Mercy
Pike tells Kirk that they're trying to determine who was behind the attack on the station. Spock interrupts them and says that he may have a lead. Spock explains that the ship may be cloaked but it has a gravitational pull. Kirk asks if they can track it and asks for Spocks name. Spock introduces himself and says that theoretically they could and explains how to do it. Kirk is impressed, and Spock continues explaining how the Romulans cloaking works. Kirk puts together that they can't see each other, and Spock nods.

Season 1
THE MAN TRAP Kirk and Spock beam down to M-113 to speak with Professor Crater. They find him among the ruins and yells that he wants them to leave. As Kirk tries to calm him down, Spock wanders and finds the body of Ensign Green. He calls Kirk over and Kirk points out that he beamed onto the ship with them. Spock says that something did and Kirk orders that Enterprise on lock-down. Spock says that they can take Carter with them to find out about the creature, and Kirk agrees. They're suddenly knocked over by a laser and have to take cover from Crater. Spock says that taking him will be difficult, and Kirk tells him that he'll be setting his phaser on stun. Spock says that Kirk will be risking his life for Crater's, but Kirk says that he's only trying to frighten them. Spock points out a way for them to sneak around and they set their plan in motion.

As they try to get the drop on Crater, Spock calls Kirk and Kirk gives him the signal to distract him. Kirk is able to stun him and they both rush to him. Kirk asks where Nancy is, and Crater explains that the last creature on the planet came to them and killed Nancy, then ended up taking her place. Kirk calls the Enterprise and has the three of them beamed out.

Kirk gets a call to the infirmary and rushes down to find Spock injured. Spock tells him that the creature took the form of McCoy and attacked him. They find Crater dead in the next room, and Kirk asks how Spock ended up okay. Spock was just lucky that he's a Vulcan, and has a different genetic make up.

The creature ends up trapping Kirk in McCoy's quarters, just as Spock arrives. Spock tells McCoy to shoot it, since it's killing Kirk, and when he fails to do so, puts himself between Kirk and the creature.

CHARLIE X

Kirk is distracted while he and Spock play 3D chess, which Spock points out. Kirk's mind is on the Antares, and can't comprehend what happened. Spock expresses his own concerns, but over Charlie. Kirk is confused, and Spock says that he seemed to know what happened to the Antares before anyone else. Charlie then walks in, and Kirk thinks it's a pretty long reach for evidence. They continue their game and Kirk reaches a checkmate. Spock laments that Kirk's illogical approach does have advantages, and Kirk prefers to call in inspired. Spock lets him, and says that the game is his. Kirk asks if Charlie has ever played, and Charlie admits that he hasn't and asks to try. Kirk leaves him in Spock's hands as he leaves.

Kirk and Spock rush to Rand's quarters to rescue her from Charlie, when they are thrown against the wall by Charlie. After Charlie makes Rand disappear, he lets Kirk go for a moment. As Kirk stands he asks Spock how he is. Spock says that his legs are broken, and Kirk angrily tells Charlie to let Spock go. Charlie asks why he should and Kirk says that he needs Spock to help run the ship. Charlie then lets Spock go and storms out.

WHERE NO MAN HAS GONE BEFORE

In the lounge, Spock and Kirk are playing chess when Kirk's thoughts start to drift towards the mission. Spock says that he'll have him checkmated on his next move, bringing Kirk back to the present. Kirk asks if Spock knows that he plays an irritating game of chess, but Spock says that he doesn't know it, since it's a human emotion. Kirk moves his piece, changing Spock's plan, and asks if Spock is sure he doesn't know the feeling. Spock says that just because he has a human ancestor, which Kirk interrupts joking that it's unfortunate to have bad blood. They then get a call from the bridge and head to the transporter room where an object is brought on board.

As the rest of the officers leave the meeting, Spock turns to Jim and tells him that they'll never make it back to a base with Gary on board. He'll become to powerful, but Kirk wants a recommendation, not some vague warnings. Spock recommends they go to a nearby planet where they can refit the materials there for power, but Kirk says that they might end up getting trapped in orbit with no power to get out. Spock says it's the only way to get Gary off the ship, but Kirk knows that he means to strand Gary there. Kirk refuses but Spock says the only other option is to kill Gary while he still can. Kirk tells him to get out, but Spock insists that it's the only choice. Kirk tells him to try and feel for one moment, or at least pretend to. Spock points out that the captain of the Valiant probably felt the same way, and waited too long. They've both guessed that by now. Kirk takes a moment before telling Spock to set course for the planet, Delta Vega.

As Kirk readys the party to leave, Kirk gets a call from Scotty asking if Spock got the phaser rifle. Kirk says that he didn't ask for one just as Spock enters the room with one in hand. Kirk takes him aside and Spock explains that Gary attempted to break through the force field again, and that his eyes changed to gray much faster, not as weak. Kirk asks why he should believe Spock over Dr. Dehner, and Spock says it's because he doesn't feel and relies solely on logic. He doesn't even know it they'll get away in time.

Season 2
AMOK TIME

Spock begins undergoing the pon farr, the Vulcan mating drive; though he says, "I'd hoped I would be spared this", he acknowledges that all Vulcans must go through it (and return to Vulcan, when they do) or die. Kirk, against orders from an admiral, directs the Enterprise to go to Vulcan to save Spock's life and agrees to keep Spock's secret, not telling anyone about the pon farr, a deeply personal Vulcan ritual. Spock asks Kirk and McCoy to beam down to the planet with him to take part in his marriage ceremony, stating that he has the right to be accompanied by his closest friends.

It is revealed that T'Pau, a hugely important figure in Vulcan civilization, will be officiating at Spock's wedding. Spock's betrothed, T'Pring, invokes her right of challenge, allowing her to select another person to fight Spock; the winner will gain the right to marry her. Though another Vulcan, Stonn, protests, having wanted to take part in the challenge, T'Pring selects Kirk as the challenger. Kirk thinks it best that he accept, intending to win the fight and prevent Spock's marriage without seriously hurting him. (Stonn would likely be selected otherwise, and it looks like he has been training for this, and might hurt Spock.)

This entire episode, Spock has been slowly going mad. He spoke with real anger to everyone except Kirk who dared disturb him. Now, Spock can barely speak, (and T'Pau is incredulous that he can speak) but he pleads with T'Pau not to allow the challenge to proceed, stating that there's something Kirk doesn't know. T'Pau allows the combat to go through anyway, and we find out what it is that Kirk doesn't know: this combat is to the death.

Kirk and Spock are given weapons, and they fight; naturally, Kirk's shirt is torn open. The fight devolves into them rolling around in the sand on top of each other suggestively. They begin to choke each other out, and Kirk falls down; McCoy runs over to check him and declares him dead. Spock walks over to T'Pring and they both agree that they should not be married. He walks over to T'Pau, who wishes that he "Live long and prosper"; he responds, "I shall do neither. I have killed my captain, and my friend."

Spock beams up to the Enterprise, walks into sickbay, and begins telling McCoy his intention that the ship go to the nearest starbase, where he will turn himself in. Kirk walks up behind him and says "Don't you think you better check with me first?" Spock grabs him, openly grins, and shouts out "Jim!" in pure glee, before composing himself again. They ask why Spock is no longer affected by the madness, why his desire to mate is no more; Spock responds, "it must have been the combat." The episode ends with McCoy teasing Spock, saying that, when he first saw Kirk alive, he was clearly "on the verge of giving us an emotional scene that would have brought the house down." Spock responds that this was only logical, and McCoy says "Your reaction was quite logical... in a pig's eye!"

THE APPLE

Overhearing Kirk's conversation with Scotty, Spock says that he finds the situation with the Enterprise unusual. Kirk thinks that Scotty can handle it and asks if Spock found anything with the Tricorder. Spock tells him that he found vibrations that are artificially made, and Kirk send some of security team to survey the area. Spock notices something and Kirk asks what it is. Spock tells him that there is someone following them, and Kirk takes a security member to find them.

Spock suggests that the Enterprise's could probably have to do with the vibrations he read earlier. Kirk suggests a generator and Spock says that it would have to be immense and subterranean. Kirk notices McCoy examining something and goes to join him. Spock then notices the same flower that killed Hendorff before. He yells to Kirk and pushes him out of the way getting hit with the thorns himself. Kirk runs to Spock's side as he collapses, and McCoy starts to try and wake him again. Kirk asks if he's alive, but McCoy says that they need to get him back to the ship. Kirk then calls Scotty to beam them up, but there is something wrong and they're unable to do so.

Spock then awakens and Kirk runs to him to ask how he is. Spock says that he is fine, but is annoyed by McCoy's treatments. Kirk asks what he was trying to do, and Spock explains that he though Kirk was unaware of the plant so he- Kirk interrupts and says that he stepped in front and took the thorns himself. Spock says that it wasn't his intention, that his own clumsiness stopped him from moving away from the thorns. Kirk tells him to just yell next time, he can move as quickly as anyone else. Spock promises to do so. Kirk can't believe that he would try and get himself killed, and asks if Spock knows how much Starfleet invested in him. Spock starts to answer, but Kirk says never mind. He does thank him though, and sends security around the perimeter.

As Kirk laments over the death of his crew members, Spock follows him and says that the deaths were unavoidable. Kirk says that he could have prevented it, but Spock doesn't see how. Kirk believes that they should have beamed up at the first sign of trouble, but Spock reminds him that they were under orders to investigate the planet. Kirk reminds him that he can disregard orders if they're overly hazardous. Kirk doesn't think that this mission was worth three of his men, or his ship, and that he let his guard down. Spock reminds him that Starfleet duty isn't safe, and Kirk did everything a commander would do. He starts to tell Kirk that blaming himself won't help, when he hears the same person from before following them again.

They are taken to Vaal by the figure known as Akuta. Spock does some readings and finds that it generates a great amount of power. Kirk asks if the it's the center of power, but Spock says that farther below the surface. He starts to walk towards it but then is flown back by a force field. Kirk goes to him and asks if he's alright, Spock says that he is and Kirk helps him stand up.

The away team notices the villagers leaving the village, and Kirk asks Spock to follow them as they watch. They watch the villagers "feed" Vaal, and Spock believes that their initial idea was right. That Vaal is no more than a computer. Kirk suggests going in since the field is down, when Vaal's eyes light and the planet starts to shake. The two decide that it's not the way to go, and Spock suggests that the machine might be intelligent. Kirk says that it still needs to "eat" so it can't have that much power. Spock says that it doesn't help much, given that they only have 10 hours to get the Enterprise out of there. Kirk suggests that Vaal is weaker around feeding time and asks Spock to contact the ship to find out how much power they're expending.

That night, Spock tells Kirk that the village isn't ideal, but it is viable. Kirk thinks that McCoy was right, that the people are existing and not living. Spock says that if they destroy the Vaal, then it would be a violation of the noninterference directive, but Kirk says that they're people and should have the opportunity to choose. They owe it to interfere, but Spock points out that Starfleet would think otherwise. Kirk says that he'll take his chances and tells Spock to have a look around. Spock quickly returns and tells Kirk that all the villagers have disappeared.

As the Kirk attempts to contact Vaal, lightning starts to storm overhead. He and Spock attempt to run away but Spock is struck by lightning and goes unconscious. Kirk then carries him back to the village. He calls for McCoy and places Spock down and he comes to consciousness. McCoy tells him that it's not serious as the villagers return and attack them.

Kirk gets an idea and has Spock follow him to Vaal. He calls Scotty to fire on Vaal when he gives the order. Spock reads that Vaal is getting weaker and Kirk says that pulling the Enterprise away must have done so. Spock theorizes that firing on it would cause it to weaken further and eventually run out of power, which Kirk was planning on. He calls Scotty to fire and he does so. Spock reads that Vaal is trying to reinforce the field and Kirk wants to see how long he can hold out. As Vaal explodes, he tells Scotty to cease fire and Spock reads that the power is gone. Vaal is dead.

Kirk is walking down the halls of the Enterprise when McCoy calls him over to him and Spock. Spock says that he doesn't think they did the right thing on the planet, but McCoy insists that they did. Kirk sees it as a lesson on what happens when the machines do to much for them, and Spock asks if Kirk is familiar with the story of Adam and Eve. Kirk is and Spock suggests in such an analogy, they have given the people "the apple" and have driven them out of paradise. Kirk sarcastically asks if he's casting him in the role of Satan, and Spock starts to say he isn't when Kirk asks if there's anyone on the ship who even remotely looks like Satan, as he and McCoy circle Spock. Spock realizes they're referring to him and says that he doesn't. Kirk didn't think that he would and walks off with McCoy.

A PIECE OF THE ACTION

As they knock out the mobsters, Kirk tells Spock and McCoy to get to the radio station, so that they can call Uhura and can get themselves beemed up. Spock says that Kirk has to come, and Kirk says that he will. He just needs to grab Okmyx first. The three then separate.

As Okmyx tries to keep Spock and McCoy, Kirk shows up and threatens his goons. The mobsters are backed into a corner as Kirk asks Spock that he thought he was supposed to return to the ship. Spock says that they did, but Kirk getting kidnapped required them to return. Kirk's thinks that might be fore the best and asks if he figured out anything from the computer. Spock didn't find anything, as logic doesn't seem to apply here and Kirk asks if a hunch is okay. Spock's not a fan, but he doesn't see an alternative. Kirk then has two of the mobsters switch clothes with him and Spock.

They exit the building and hop into the car outside, but they're both unable to drive it. Spock explains the parts of the car and Kirk is able to drive it, although not very well. Once they arrive at Kracko's, Spock says that Kirk is an excellent Captain, but not a very good driver. Kirk asks if it was that bad, and Spock confirms so. They hop out of the car and Kirk notices the guards, but doesn't think they'll be able to stun them out in public. Spock suggests getting close when a boy runs up and asks if they're putting a hit on Kracko. He tells them that he can fix the problem, which Spock objects to, but Kirk wants to hear him out. They strike a deal and the kid is able to get close to the guards and so that Kirk and Spock knock them out easily.

They enter but are quickly captured by Kracko. Kirk is able to get Kracko alone and starts to play up the part of a gangster, getting Spock to follow along. He tells them that the Federation is taking over and walks over to the desk. He sits down and tells Spock to sit down with him. Spock joins and mimics him as Kirk places his feet on the desk.

As they exit the building, Kirk runs to the car but Spock momentarily stops him. He asks if they must and Kirk says that it's faster than walking. Spock says it's not as safe and Kirk asks if he's afraid of cars. Spock insists that he isn't, but Kirk's driving does. Kirk insists that he has the hang of it and tells Spock to get in. They then drive off back to Okmyx's.

Kirk comes up to Spock and McCoy and says that they have been brooding since they left the planet. Spock says that he hasn't but does have reservations over the way they left the Ionians. Kirk summizes that Spock doesn't think it's a good idea to leave criminals in charge, and Spock confirms as wells as expressing concerns over how Kirk plans to explain the results to Starfleet. Kirk comes up with his own idea, but Spock doesn't find it all together, very logical.

BREAD AND CIRCUSES

As everyone on the bridge waits for Spock's analysis of the debris Spock tells Kirk that it is what's left of the SS Beagle. He finds no signs of bodies, and Kirk concludes that there's a chance that the crew survived. He asks Spock to trace back where the debris likely came from, and Spock does so. As they head towards the planet, Spock points out that he believes Kirk knew the captain of the Beagle. R. M. Merik. Kirk confirms this as they reach the planet, which is strikingly similar to earth. Kirk asks what era, and Spock says it's pre-warp. A program from the planet is placed on screen and it shows that the planet is a mix of the 20th century and old Rome. Spock says that one of the men on screen was the first officer of the Beagle and Kirk tells him to ready the transporter room.

ASSIGNMENT: EARTH

Kirk asks Spock what he makes of the cat, and Spock says that it's an interesting creature. He feels rather drawn to it. Kirk gives him a smile and asks the rest of the crew for anything they can find on their guest, but no one can find anything. He asks Spock for a historical report and Spock tells him all the he can, including war heads being launched on that day. Kirk asks if warheads were the biggest problem of the era and Spock confirms so.

"What would I do without you, Spock?"

- Kirk, Star Trek: Beyond

Behind the Scenes
"For my Episode 1 [with Spock], we kind of went with what was on the page. In Season 2, we get to explore more of their dynamic. I can’t get too much into it. What I will say is that Ethan and I are actually genuinely friends now. It’s so funny, and I’m not sure if it’s subconscious, but we actually have this Kirk/Spock dynamic in real life. It’s so funny. We chat, we hang out, we’ll grab dinner, we’ll go get a drink. We text all the time. We have this sort of natural thing that he and I have developed. It makes it so much easier on screen because we can kind of just be ourselves."

- Paul Wesley

Fanon
Spock/Kirk is considered to be the first ever fan fiction pairing, at the very least the first to be documented and to reach a wider audience. While other pairings such as Napollya were also created at the time, they didn't have the same staying power as K/S.

After the reboot fanfiction writers would take situations and moments from the original timeline and re-write them in the style of the reboot.

September 15th is considered "Spirk Day" as it's the anniversary date of when Amok Time aired. One of the episode's most often cited for shipping Spirk.

On AO3, Spirk is the most written ship for both Kirk and Spock. It is also the most written relationship in the Star Trek, Star Trek: The Original Series, Star Trek: The Original Series (Movies) and the Star Trek: The Alternate Original Series tags, the second most written in the Star Trek: The Next Generations (Movies) tag and the ninth most written in the Star Trek: The Next Generation tag.
