Kitty230 58. Pomc 59. Vera-Sabe Future title suggestions: Because he knows her first name is Nyota. "Frankly, I was extremely jealous of his scenes with Zoe Saldana and I think it’s totally unfair that I never got to do that. I will never forgive the writers and the director, for having put me in this position, to have to be watching that, rather than participating" — Leonard Nimoy source Zoe Quotes I try not to publicly announce the story line I’m in. In this situation, that whole relationship to me gave me the desire, as the newer generation, to completely fall in love with the character. After reading about the character, going to all the fan sites, I realized Spock and Uhura had more in common, in terms of their attraction, than any other characters in the script. She was an apt pupil, she only lives to work, she loves to study, she loves to be the best at what she does. And then all of a sudden there’s this mentor that is a couple years older than she is. He’s [inaudible] and pointy ears, and sexy. He always knows the answer. It just made more sense. It’s also the start of the connection they have. For him, being a Vulcan, always having this battle with his human side. To allow Uhura to see something not even his father was allowed to see, to see him fail, was absolutely priceless. And for Uhura to have only this man call her by her first name, I just thought it was kind of awesome. Zachary Quotes For me, the relationship provides a great source of levity in the film: between Kirk and Spock, between Kirk and Uhura. But between Spock and Uhura I think it provides a really interesting depth. Uhura essentially represents a canvas onto which Spock projects the emotions he can’t really otherwise express. And I think that dynamic for me was really rewarding as an actor. That scene that Zoe and I played in the elevator was definitely one of the most present experiences through shooting, and that has a great deal to do with Zoe and her emotional availability and openness. It was such a comforting, confined space that we were in, in that moment. Title suggestions: Zoe declared Zach a good kisser! They could have cute, chocolate, pointy-eared babies. Geeky love is hot! Because Spock selfishly wants to spend more time with her. Because he came back to her. I was born to be with you in this space and time J.J. wants Uhura to kiss Spock more agressively! She will always come to his rescue! They're in the middle of all the action! They're armed and ready for May! Past Titles: #12 - a grown-up romance between people who are flawed, but also intelligent and mature #11 - She asked him out and he found it fascinating #10 - Because "whether they are together or not..they will still be bonded forever" #9 - Because he came back to her #8 - All it took was 177 seconds of awesome #7 - Because Vulcan is the language of love #6 - because Uhura is the canvas on which Spock can paint all his emotions #5 - because their kiss almost melted the transporter pad. #4 - because Nichelle Nicholls approves #3 - Because Leonard Nimoy approves #2 - Because she's monitoring his frequencies. #1 - Spock/Uhura __________________

hee! What a wonderful gif set to kick off this thread! I LOVED the "monitoring your frequency" line. While she would have to do so professionally as communications officer, it's obviously meant on a much more personal level.
I took the "2009" out. Is everybody okay with that? It seemed a bit dated to me. I'll put it back, if that's what the majority want. __________________

ah, I see. Can't say I'd ever expect to hear somebody actually using it though.
