katikat | Chris Pine & Zachary Quinto Interview

Over the years, Pine and Quinto’s off-screen friendship has helped them establish an on-screen rapport — the two met before they were cast in “Star Trek,” at an event writer-producer Norman Lear organized to showcase his copy of the Declaration of Independence.

“I remember feeling, as I got to know Chris more, so impressed by his intelligence, which isn’t always the case with such a traditional leading man,” Quinto said. “I remember being pleasantly, not surprised, but …”

“You thought I was just a dumb blond,” Pine interrupted.

LOL, Chris! Bless him. Yes, I'm a Kirk/Bones shipper but it seems like those fics, the really good ones, are pretty much tapped out these days. I guess I might give a try to Kirk/Spock in the end after all... I think the actors make me love their characters even more :)
