Northern Cities Vowel Shift by
brown-betty (Kirk/Uhura, Not Rated, 1450 words)
Summary: None of this makes any sense, really. Jim's barely laid a hand on her, if he doesn't count the occasional hand-up over difficult terrain, or accidental (mostly accidental) groping when an explosion throws his bridge crew around, and Jim doesn't count that, because if he counted that he'd be at third base with Keenser by now.
Notes: This story is pure, concentrated awesome: Uhura is a linguistics geek, Kirk is smart and painfully honest, and the two of them fit together perfectly.
