*gif isn't mine* (got it from google)
“just act like a human! it’s not that hard,” you smirked.
“oh, yeah. ignoring instinct is so easy,” stefan rolled his eyes.
“what are you so worried about?” you asked. you walked over to him, wrapping your arms around him from behind.
“exposing myself,” he muttered. “isn’t that obvious?”
“okay, i know you’re a little nervous, so i’m gonna excuse the attitude. you have nothing to worried about. jackass tanner won’t care if you have fangs or snap people’s neck as long as you win, which we all know you will,” you stated.
stefan chuckled, looking at you in the mirror. he turned around, leaning against his dresser. he wrapped his arms around you, pressing a kiss to your forehead. “thank you, sweetheart.”
“of course. you’ll look really hot while winning, too.”
“oh, you think so?” he hummed. “oh, i know,” you winked.
“you are the best hype-woman,” he sighed happily.
“well, i try. i know caroline will be trying to flash you, and elena will be somewhere talking to damon. and well, bonnie has no interest in you,” you grinned.
“i promise to keep my eyes on you all the time and off of caroline,” he stated.
“oh, i don’t care. at the end of the day, i’m the one coming home with you.”
stefan smiled at you, finding your confidence sexy.
“just don’t go drooling over her, okay?” you added.
“i would never. i’ll be paying attention to you the whole time.”
“well, make sure to also pay attention to the game. tanner will kill you.”
“i can play football in my sleep and win.”
“okay, mr. cocky,” you snorted. you looked at your watch, slipping out of stefan’s arms. “we gotta go.”
you went over to the closet, slipping on one of the sweatshirts you had made with stefan’s football number on it.
“do we have to?” he whined. “weren’t you the one who begged damon not to do anything mischievous so you could have this night to play?” you asked, zipping up your boots.
“yeah, but what if someone bleeds out and they see my vampire face. i-i can’t risk that.”
you sighed, walking back over to him. you pecked his lips, looking into his gorgeous green eyes.
“you will be fine. if something like that happens i’ll make sure to distract everyone until you can get under control. but trust me, nothing will happen.”
“how can you be so sure?”
“because i’m psychic,” you smirked. stefan chuckled, “you’re not a witch.”
you shrugged, “maybe i can bonnie to turn me.”
“you’d love that, wouldn’t you?”
“yes! we’d be the hottest supernatural couple in town.”
“we’re already the hottest couple in town. period.”
you giggled, “damn straight.”
you took his hand, ushering him down the stairs and into his car. he went to the locker rooms to change and you went on the field to meet with your friends.
“where’s your boy toy?” bonnie smirked. “he is my boyfriend, thank you very much. and he’s getting ready. where is jeremy?” you smirked.
“i don’t know. why would i know?” bonnie asked.
you giggled, “cause you like him!”
“ew, gross. he’s our best friend’s little brother.”
“yeah, and he’s kinda hot,” caroline commented. “see? no need to feel ashamed,” you teased.
bonnie rolled her eyes. “i do not like him.”
“whatever you say. speaking of elena, where is she?” you asked, looking around.
“off somewhere with that creep,” bonnie gagged. “gross. i have no idea how stefan is related to that asshole,” you muttered.
“well, damon is hot, you gotta give him that,” caroline said.
“he’s good-looking, but that doesn’t excuse his attitude.”
“stefan isn’t perfect either.”
you gave her an are you serious? look.
“weren’t you the one who wanted to get into his pants from the first time you saw him?” you raised a brow.
caroline scoffed, “well, i wasn’t very successful.”
“obviously,” you gave her a petty smile. you turned back to bonnie, sighing in exasperation. “are you staying for the whole game?”
“i don’t know yet. i’ll probably leave in the middle go to go bed,” bonnie answered.
“then i’ll be all lonely,” you pouted. “i’m sure you’ll survive,” bonnie chuckled.
“if i pay for your food while you stay for the whole game?” you suggested.
“mmm, i’ll consider it,” bonnie hummed. “yay! we better head to the bleachers to get a good view,” you said.
bonnie nodded in agreement, beginning to walk away. you turned to caroline giving her a kind smile.
“have fun cheering.”
“you, too,” she smiled back.
you gave her a kiss on cheek and went to follow bonnie. you two copped a seat right in the middle of the bleachers. it was the perfect view for stefan and the game.
“what do you want from concessions?” you asked.
“coke and pretzels,” bonnie said.
“with salt and cheese?”
“yep.”
“alright. i’ll be right back. try to make elena leave damon.”
“i’ll try, no promises.”
“just use your powers, i’m sure there’s a spell for keeping friends away from weirdos,” you smirked.
you climbed down the bleachers, walking to the concessions and ordering your food. you bought an extra pack of sour ropes for you and bonnie to share, as well as some waters to keep you cool and hydrated.
you walked back, happy to see elena in the bleachers with bonnie.
“hey!” you squealed. “hi!” elena smiled, hugging you as soon as you set the food down.
“where have you been? and please, don’t say with damon,” you asked.
“i wasn’t! i was talking to matt.”
“oh? rekindling love?” you wondered. “no, no. not gonna happen,” she chuckled. “i saw stefan, too.”
“oh, how is he? he was really nervous when we left the house,” you said worriedly.
“he’s okay. he misses you,” she nudged you.
you smiled shyly. “i miss him, too.”
“you two can’t spend two minutes without each other,” bonnie rolled her eyes.
“jealous?” you raised your brows. “i am never jealous,” bonnie shook her head.
you smiled in reply, handing her her food.
“when is the game supposed to start?” you asked.
“whenever they get going,” bonnie sighed.
“i hope tyler behaves,” you muttered. “ten bucks says he won’t?” elena bet.
“oh, that’s easy money,” you rolled your eyes.
“i heard he likes caroline,” elena stated. “really? i thought he liked vicki,” you said.
“who knows anymore.”
“geez, that boy likes everyone. i swear, he drools over girls like a dog,” you remarked.
“he basically is one,” bonnie chuckled.
you giggled with her, nodding in agreement. you turned your attention to the field as the cheerleaders started to cheer.
“go timberwolves! wooo!” you cheered, jumping up and down on the bleachers.
“you’re gonna break the bleachers!” bonnie exclaimed.
“am not!” you gasped. “just trying to show my school spirit.”
“you used to hate football games. has stefan compelled you to love it?” bonnie muttered the last sentence.
“no, but him being on the team has changed my attitude. it’s my junior year, so i might as well go to these games and act like i love this school. i’ll set a good example to the underclassman,” you explained.
“you and stefan gonna celebrate if they win tonight?” bonnie asked.
“when they do. and yeah, i don’t see why not. it’s his first game,” you shrugged.
“well, hope you have fun. hopefully you can walk tomorrow.”
“okay, me not being able to walk was one time! and that wasn’t even stefan fault. i told you i fell down the stairs right on my ass,” you frowned.
“keep telling yourself that,” bonnie patted your back.
“whatever,” you grumbled, looking at the field.
stefan met your eyes as soon as you looked at the field. you two waved at each other. you blew him a kiss and he caught it, blowing one back to you.
the crowd was awed. you two were a famous couple at mystic high. you had never been very popular, to begin with. you were well-known only for being elena and caroline’s friend, who were the school’s undoubtedly most popular juniors. ever since you started dating stefan your status blew up. you weren’t expecting it, and you didn’t want it to happen, but there wasn’t much to do now.
every girl in the school was, and some were still, drooling over stefan as soon as he came to the school. you were attracted to him, too, but you were one of the few that didn’t throw yourself at him. he always said that from the moment he saw you, he knew you were the one.
“please, some of us are trying not to remember how lonely we are!” jeremy exclaimed.
his voice from behind you startled you. you turned around, reaching up and giving him a hug.
“i didn’t think you were coming tonight!” you exclaimed.
“elena made me come. she said i need to socialize,” he rolled his eyes.
“you stay in your room all the time! your room is rank,” elena frowned.
“i go downstairs sometimes,” jeremy argued.
“jer, elena’s right. you need to get out in the fresh air,” you said.
“since when you were an advocate for going outside? you’re worse than me,” he snorted.
“i’m a homebody and you’re a druggie. there’s a different,” you said.
“i guess,” he sighed.
“oh, the game’s starting!” elena tapped your shoulder.
you whipped around, eyes landing on stefan immediately. everyone sat down on the bleachers, not getting up unless they made a touchdown.
“they’re gonna lose,” elena sighed.
you frowned, watching with worried eyes. “maybe a miracle will happen.”
“not at this rate,” jeremy sighed. “i’m goin’ home. i’d rather not feel more disappointment.”
“text me that you got home safe, please,” elena hugged her brother.
“okay,” he nodded.
“see you, jer,” bonnie smiled. “see you bonnie,” he smiled at her, then looked at you. “see you, y/n.”
you gave him a wave, watching as he shuffled through the stands, walking down the stairs and to the parking lot.
“o-oh, y/n! look at stefan!” elena screeched.
you turned around fast, getting a little dizzy. your eyes focused on your boyfriend, jaw-dropping at the plays he was making. he was making touchdown after touchdown after touchdown. he was practically flying through the other team, bulldozing through every player. it was neck and neck.
“if only jeremy would’ve been more patient,” elena sighed.
“i’m sure he’ll hear about it on the school news,” you shrugged.
“oh, watch!” bonnie gasped.
you watched as stefan tackled four or five players, not phased by any one of their hits. he was about to make another touchdown when he got tackled by typer.
“jesus christ,” you muttered.
stefan fell to the ground on his back. it looked as though his wrist had been broken. you started to run down the bleachers, but stefan got back up, meeting your worried gaze and holding his hand up. it looked perfectly fine, but you knew it ached a little.
you gave him an encouraging smile. he smiled back before he got into tanner’s huddle.
“you okay, salvatore?” tanner asked. “yeah,” stefan nodded.
“lockwood, what the hell was that? tackle the other team, not your own,” tanner griped.
“sorry, coach,” tyler said, throwing stefan a glare. “sorry, salvatore.”
“no problem,” stefan gave him a polite smile.
“okay, salvatore, you win this for us and you get all A’s this semester. got it?” tanner asked.
“got it,” he nodded.
“alright. timberwolves on three. one, two, timberwolves!” tanner shouted.
everyone clapped stefan’s back as they went back onto the field. stefan put his helmet and mouth guard back on.
“go, stefan!” you shouted.
he glanced at you. you could see his smile through his helmet, the mouth guard getting in the way of you seeing his pearly white teeth.
you gripped your popcorn as you watched them play the next round. tyler ran backward, aiming the ball at stefan. stefan caught it with ease, wasting no time in running. one guy from the other team, almost as fast as stefan, grabbed him by the back. stefan managed to grab him by the collar, throwing him off and making his last few steps to the touchdown.
“they won! they won!” elena screamed.
“o-oh, my god!” you exclaimed. you threw your popcorn onto the ground, running down the bleachers and jumping onto the field.
you ran into the crowd of timberwolves who were cheering stefan and congratulating them. stefan moved out of the crowd, opening his arms out for you. you jumped into them, kicking your legs and screaming in his ear excitedly as he lifted you.
“great job! oh, my god. i am so proud of you!”
“thank you, sweetheart,” stefan said. he set you down only for you to kiss him.
you set your hands on his cheeks, pushing his face closer to yours. he put his hands in your sides, his thumbs on the underside of your bra.
you pulled away panting. you looked into his eyes, your smile not leaving for face for one second.
“you were amazing out there! ugh, you are so good!” you gushed.
“i owe it all to my vampirism,” he chuckled.
“stop being so modest. well all know you’re very skilled at this sport,” you said.
“well, i’ve had years of training.”
“and they’ve paid off.”
your thumb rubbed back and forth on his cheekbone as you gazed into his eyes. you had a big, dopey smile on your face. he couldn’t help but blush at the way you looked at him. he was so lucky.
“i am so proud of you, stef,” you said.
“it’s just a game,” he shrugged.
“nu-uh. you were so nervous about this, and i know you haven’t been happy ever since you’ve been turned, but tonight i could tell how happy you are. this could be your chance to live a happy, close to normal life,” you said.
“i hope so. i’m so happy that you’re in my life now. you just make it so easy to relax and be happy,” he smiled.
“well, i try,” you admitted bashfully.
“i love you, sweetheart,” he said in a hushed voice.

Because the timelines might be different, but some things are simply meant to be. Aka, the one time when the photo shoot setting was the same but the Kirk is different - part V.
———————————————————————————————
Please bear in mind that my personal headcanon is that Discovery established a divergence and thus both Discovery and Strange New World are set in a different timeline than TOS. More about this at this post.
Yes, as of now these Spock and Jim don't even know each other. Do I care? No.
Long story. This series, as in TOS and Reboot, was done in 2015. Earlier this year I was talking with someone who happened to be a very enthusiastic and long fan of the Reboot!Jim. It's a long story and I won't talk about it more, but out of the unsettling bad episode that followed, it came a positive note: I was remembered about this series. Cut to a couple of months later, and I got struck by an idea: why not doing the new Kirk and Spock?
I ended up rushing them in December but I made it.
I took the opportunity to retouch a bit the previous four pieces, hiding the Kirk's junk with a good-placed shadow and playing a bit with a colored filter on the Spocks.

Tec stuffs (aka Behind The Manip)
OMG this one! The hardest part wasn't finding faces of Paul Weasley, and not even the tedious and irking, repetitive job of trying them on the bases, but pick the one combo to work on! At one point I was working with three different bases (the model original pics) and 54587 of Paul's faces. I eventually managed to get down to 4 on three different base/poses, and then had to enlist @dragoneyes to help me choose.
Once I decided, it was actually a matter of tinkering here and there (luckily I didn't have to start from scratch with the heads I roughly cut during the tests).
Very proud of this. The photo shoot from this (and the other two Kirks from the series) comes is small but of high quality and is a pleasure to work with.
