Remember when fanfics sometimes had the author chatting with the characters? Because that’s what Gene Roddenberry’s little roleplay in the preface here is reminding me of. First he writes a preface from the point of view of Kirk and then he answers it with his own preface and I just… he’s so extra.

“I was, after all, somewhat a key figure…” WHY ARE YOU BEING LIKE THIS GENE WE KNOW YOU CREATED THE SHOW
