Okay so this is sort of inspired by art my mylochkatee here.
But there are some differences so it doesn’t 100% work with what I have in mind.
It’s sort of a mix between a royal story and Sound of Music. With no music.
Prince Spock is a widower with children (don’t know if I would go with as many as from Sound of Music). His wife, a Vulcan, died a while ago.
Prince James Tiberius runs away from home and responsibilities basically. But he is incognito and calls himself Kirk. Somehow he ends up getting hired as a tutor for Spock’s children. At first they try to trick Kirk but eventually the kids begin to accept and love Kirk.
Kirk also learns that Spock is dating a Baroness, Nyota Uhura, who he intends to propose to. The children don’t care for the baroness and they suspect if she marries their father, they will be sent away.
At a celebration Spock holds, the Baroness notices that Kirk catches the eye of Spock. She can see that Spock is smitten with Kirk and she, of course, feels threatened. She makes certain suggestions to Kirk about this and that their relationship wouldn’t work. Kirk agrees and leaves without saying goodbye.
Later the children try to find him but can’t. But Kirk has a change of heart and decides he should go back and finish what he was teaching the children and perhaps tell Spock the truth about his feelings and who he is. When he returns, he learns that Spock and the baroness are now engaged.
And well, if you’ve seen the movie, you kind of know what happens with the Baroness at that point, Spock realized it’s Kirk he loves, etc etc,.
So…what do you think? Should I put it on the canvas of writing for 2020?

Yes, without question or reservation.
BUT I’d like to say something.
I don’t hate Nyota, but I did the baroness.
Any chance you might consider using T’Pring instead, even though obviously she wasn’t in aos?
She’s just so doggone easy to hate, and such a B to fit that part. Maybe Nyota could be a cook or a maid or something, and be supportive of Kirk.
Of course, that’s just me and just my thoughts, since you asked what we thought.
But no matter what, I am all over that story by you. Especially since 9 Lives is ending soon.

Yeah the Baroness is a total bitch, so yes I certainly could change it to T’Pring. Plus that might make her snootier still because she thinks she is superior as a Vulcan

Definitely on board with this story idea. I have to revisit the movie. I don’t recall how it ends. 🤷🏻♀️ And I agree with j, T’Pring makes a great villain. But whatever you wanna do I’d love to read it. ❤️

Well the Nazis conquer Austria so that’s not how the romance ends lol
No the Baroness finally recognizes that the Captain will never be happy with her and suggests he go after Maria. And he does. And then she breaks into song. But Jim won’t do that! 😀
