Hello fellow Kirk fans,
Came to recommend a story, that I have very much enjoyed so far. Not finished, but 6 long chapters up:
Surfacing
by Jane D2
"The retraining of your mind has been in the Vulcan way, so you may not understand feelings. But as my son, you have them. They will surface." Set between "The Voyage Home" and "The Final Frontier"
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10073600/1/Surfacing Focus on Kirk and Spock friendship, with a bit of McCoy. It's about emotional fallout, not action.
