Speaking From The Heart- Art Masterpost
[Image ID:] Digital Fanart of Star Trek: The Original Series. The first image shows Uhura in her red uniform, standing in a blank void beside her chair from the bridge. She is surrounded by multicoloured text which reads “well done, knew it, bonjour, hello, hello! (exclamation point), six green exclamation points, kokero te reira, Hujambo hello in Chinese script, and Klingon script. The second image shows Uhura and Spock in the same blank void. Spock is in uniform, Uhura is in a purple off the shoulder dress, which falls to her knees, with matching silvery-purple heels. They both look into a swimming pool, where an image of Uhura is mirrored, looking up at them. The water is choppy and turbulent. The third image shows a pink room, with a wall to wall mattress. Uhura is wearing a grey tank top and red drawstring trousers, tied with a bow. She is sitting back on her hands with her face to the side, in profile., looking to the left. Christine Chapel is lying beside her, with her head rested on one hand. There are two large pink pillows behind them, and a stack of pink and magenta pillows behind Uhura. Christine is wearing a light pink spaghetti strap top, and a blanket is draped over both womens’ legs. They are mid-conversation. The fourth image shows Kirk and Uhura dressed in the clothes from “Plato’s Stepchildren.” They are having a discussion on a purple fainting couch and surrounded by greco-roman architecture. Kirk looks concerned as Uhura tilts her head to the side, midway through talking. The fifth and final image shows Uhura back on the bridge, her surroundings returned to normal, as she holds hands with Sulu and Chekhov. Spock stands behind the three of them, smiling slightly, and the rest of them are grinning. They all look jubilant and triumphant, and are dressed in their usual uniforms. [End Image ID.]

Coming soon to Ao3 via the Uhura Bang (@theuhurabang)
[Image description: A promo banner for the Uhura Bang 2021 challenge. The background is purple and blue space nebulas, with red and yellow shading. There is a small drawing of Nyota Uhura in her red uniform in front of a purple Starfleet insignia on the upper right side. The white text reads: The Uhura Bang 2021 Presents: Speaking From the Heart. Author: williamspockspeare, Artist: Im_not_creative_with_names. On July 3”. End of ID]
Speaking From the Heart
Author: @fictionandtheatre
Artist: @ spacecat_scribbles on instagram
Posting Date: July 3rd, 2021
Rating: T
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply.
Genre/Tags: TOS. Chahura (Christine Chapel/Nyota Uhura). Hurt/comfort. Angst with a happy ending. Aliens. Lesbians fluff. Found family dynamics.
Summary: When a group of aliens put Nyota Uhura’s communication ability to the test, she quickly realizes she must reveal things about herself she’s never told anyone before. Will Nyota be able to share her heart with her crew – or are there some things too difficult to speak aloud?
Preview:
Suddenly, everyone on the Bridge slammed their hands over their ears. A horrible sound blared from all corners, and yet from nowhere at all.
Nyota shut her eyes. Oh, the sound was so loud, so overwhelming! It felt like it was coming from inside her head, blasting a hole through her skull. She couldn’t even figure out what it was saying, it was so thick, like a fog.
Wait. It was…saying something?
She felt light-headed, and the sound still pounded against her ears. But it was no longer just a wall of indefinable nothing.
No. It was…
Words.
Slowly, Nyota opened her eyes.
She was no longer on the Enterprise. The room, if it was a room at all, was white, featureless. It was like sitting in an empty void; although she realized with a start that her chair had transported with her.
Words.
All around her, there were just… words. She could see them. Large, colourful words, painting over white space. Some yellow, some purple, pink, blue, red, moving in large swooping cursive, others in tiny detailed font, and more in between.
But they weren’t physical words. That is, they weren’t written on the walls, or hanging from the ceiling. No, they didn’t look two-dimensional, and yet… not exactly three-dimensional either.
Two point five dimensional?
Whatever they were, they were certainly there. And, she realized with a start, they were the same words being said aloud.
What are these mysterious words - and what do they want with Nyota? Find out on July 3rd!
Many thanks to my wonderful artist spacecat_scribbles who drew the banner above, and 5 more incredible pieces, one for every chapter! Seriously could not be happier with our collaboration. And thanks to the Uhura Bang mods for making all of this possible!

Ace and ace-friendly Spirk Recs.
For @poetic----nonsense’s friend 💛It occurred to me that there isn’t a list like this.
Ace!Spock stories:
1. Interspace by @fictionandtheatre and it’s sequel Compromise. A TOS coming out story and an established relationship story about working out the details. Both very well written and wonderful.
2. “Courage, dear heart” by Wingittofreedom. Spock has ASMR and a crush on Jim. AOS. Also a lovely Podfic by @eunyisadoran 💛Shameless self-promotion, but tbh, there aren’t that many ace!Spock fics.
Ace-friendly stories: (stories in which sex isn’t the main focus, i.e. that other forms of intimacy are prioritized)
1. Next Best Destiny by @rabidchild67. AU where Spock is captain and Jim is a geeky science officer. AOS. Hilarious, sweet slowburn.
2. A little bit of grace (for me and for you) by Wingittofreedom. AOS Academy Era AU. Jim is a Mexican-American teen and Spock is a newly-made professor. At Pike’s request, Spock gives Jim a place to stay for a few weeks during the summer; their friendship grows from there. Slowburn over Jim’s academy years. (Spock is sex-repulsed but demisexual rather than ace).
3. Red by @walktalkwrite. AOS Space Amish AU. Spock is assigned to study geology on a planet with a luddite community + provide his services as Teacher to the youngest colonists. Rule number one: hands off the leader's young protege.
4. Objective Data by @walktalkwrite. A young Vulcan decides to find a mate for his guardian, Spock. After careful calculations, Cadet Kirk is obviously the superior choice. AOS. (basically, I take every opportunity I get to rec this author. Most of their works are v ace friendly).
5. A Perfect Fit by @bigmamag. Jim is a few inches tall and Spock is regular sized. AOS Academy Era AU.
Feel free to add to this! Recc’ing your own fics is fine 💛There aren’t that many ace!Spock fics sadly.
