Daring Attempt Fanzine #7 | Shellie Whild & Tere Ann Roderick, 1987 + scenes from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982)
Sad Song by Tere Roderick
I watched a friend die today...
It was an easy death -- As deaths go. He just seemed to slip further and further from me Until I could not feel him "there" anymore. It was not an heroic death, No glory... Only the silence of an unshed tear. Now I sit staring into the brandy... I do not drink... did not drink... before... Or so I told him. Now the amber fluid is all I have. I watched a friend die today. My soul went with him.

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is about James T. Kirk being a husband and a father, actually.
And I'm not talking about Carol and David Marcus.

It was never really a choice.
He’d choose the danger every time.

ILM's Don Dow films the Mutara Nebula for Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.
In an interview for Star Trek: The Magazine (that was cited in the excellent Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan - The Making of the Classic Film,) Ken Ralston related how they created the Nebula in a cloud tank:
"It was probably five or six feet deep by eight to ten feet wide. I used a concoction of some kind of [liquid] rubber material mixed with white cartoon paint. It took a lot of care. If I remember this right, you'd put in a layer of salt water, lay a plastic sheet on top of it, and then you'd put in a layer of just regular water. You would very gently remove the palstic, and the salt would keep an inversion layer where the two met so they wouldn't mix, and that would give you some interesting ways to play with what you did with the rubber. I had these long (for lack of a butter description) turkey basters, and to make it more interesting, you'd start to kind of churn the layers around a little bit and create these different shapes for it."

Some interesting tidbits about Spock's death in TWOK from the book Star Trek Movie Memories:
First, Shatner tells us about when he first realized that Spock and Kirk would be separated at the time of Spock's death:

Leonard Nimoy talks about how at first he really wanted to have Spock killed, but he started to have second thoughts as the shooting went on:

It's also said that the whole crew were very emotionally affected when the time to shoot the scene arrived:

I mean . . .
Tumblr media
What else are we expected to do with this information?
Look at the way Jim is looking at Spock while he's being all vulnerable.
Look at McCoy being sassy and eyerolling at their mooning bullshit as per usual.
What did they want to convey here? It was put in the film for a reason.
It directly yet subtly juxtaposes Spock's platonic friend relationship with McCoy to what he has with Jim.
WHAT WAS THAT.
(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻
Cut the bullshit.
We all know it was put in there to signal blast "Spock loves Kirk." That Vulcan is out here feeling it. This simple feeling. He never gets married because he's married to Jim.
We done already done knew, we ain't brand new.

Is there something more heartbreaking than Spocks Dying scene in wrath of Khan?
Tumblr media
YEP.
The book !!!!!!!!!!!!
William Shatner did and amazing job, he looked soo heartbroken, and honestly this scene even thought I have seen it so many times still makes me cry. But if you lie to cry about old man yuri like me, worry not, the book is perfect for you.
Star Trek: The Original Series - 007 - The Wrath of Khan
Vonda N. Mcintyre
"No human can tolerate the radiation in there!" McCoy cried.
"But Doctor," Spock said, feeling a certain terribly un-Vulcan affection for the man who opposed him, "you yourself are fond of pointing out that I am not human."
"You can't go in there, Spock!"
Spock smiled at Dr. McCoy. He was so completely and comfortingly predictable. Spock could go through their conversation in his mind and know everything the doctor would say, everything he himself would reply.
Spock then "gently" lowers McCoy to the deck, And tells him: You have been a worthy opponent and friend.
Also what he thinks about Kirk and the enterprise:
"Captain, please—!" Scott screamed.
The only real captain of the Enterprise was and ever had been James Kirk. Spock had kept the ship in trust; but now it was time to return it to its true master.
Tumblr media
No matter what, these three were ment to always stay together, and now they have been separated. Even thought in didn´t really look like it, McCoy loves both Spock and Kirk the same way, they are both (at least) his friends, and he would do anything to protect them from harm (The Emapth - dude)
Tumblr media
McCoy durring Spock funeral cannot keep himself from breakign down, and cries durring Spocks funeral. Almost the same way that he broke down durring The Entropy effect (also by Vondra N. McIntyre), when Kirk died.
you know who else cried? Jim and Saavik (Saavik was supposed to be his wife!)
They are in love your honor!!!!
