It occurs to me that someone here *might* be interested in reading background fic about my Jim Kirk. This doesn't come into play in all my RP, but it does inform my understanding of him. All of it came out of stuff I was exploring by roleplaying him, trying to reconcile all his different parts: Tarsus, the academic, the compassionate captain, the ladies' man. These outline a lot of what goes into him for me.
The Loneliness of Command. Adult. Warning: fantasy dub-con. Jim contemplates the choices that brought him to this place.
Doubles. Six people Jim isn't. My exploration of doubles, in canon and out. Warning for hints of selfcest and RPF, though it could be seen as abstract meta. It really only makes sense in the context of the game I was in, but I like a lot of what it says.
Balance. Adult. Warning: Vague talk of child abuse. Academy-fic. My version of what brought Jim from Tarsus victim to bookworm to... you know. *Jim*.
Getting There Sooner. Warning: Implications of child abuse. Jim returned from Tarsus not quite a child, but he's not yet the man he'll become.
