Thoughts on Kirk/Spock, fic requests, and picspam!

What I want from fic--and you
I think the single-greatest thing about the new Star Trek movie is how it's injected new life into the fandom, and how that's not at all isolated to the actors/characters from the new film. I have talked to so many people who've gotten into TOS via the film, and thus far my interactions in fandom have been really ( Read more... )

Have you read Killa's fic? She is stunning, stunningly amazing in her writing. And if you want something that's not picture perect smush, sit down and read "Bitter Glass". It's... I don't even have words for it, except that it fit them *perfectly* and it had me crying, and I very rarely cry when reading fic. (Killa, in case you have not noticed already, is my goddess. Her K/S vids are all awesome, too, it's a shame I didn't get to save them all before she took them down due to people being fucktards.)

Anyway, Killa's Star Trek fic here:

Syn Ferguson is also up there with the ouch, ouch, but so, so good and somehow right, and I haven't read all of it, yet, but I must because, yes. I can only take it in small doses because of the ouch atm, though.

And then there is the infamous "Golden Boy" by Jungle Kitty, which just... oh it hurts. And ironically, can be seen very much to fit into your wish for dealing with mind melds in a very unusual fashion. http://www.ksarchive.com/viewstory.php?sid=51&warning=1

Basically, I go by pairing (I have it simpler there, since I only really dig the K/S, although I read an awesome XI McCoy fic last night), rec pages, descriptions of stories and knowing what I like, and *spending way too much time on this stuff*.

Anyway, I'm planning to make a rec post at some point in the not so distant future, do you want me to point you to it if I do get round to it?

yesyesyes

This is so what I'm asking for, and I haven't even looked yet. So thank you. I'm very excited! And I do want to see your recs, and I'll keep an eye out for that. I also don't mind being pointed at rec pages people like. I'm sure you understand the scope of this is intimidating!

Frankly, I am really only into the K/S, but I want to leave myself open just in case. I don't see anything coming close, but even my OTPs are never inviolable. For a good cause.

Thanks so much!
