What aches, catches in fishing-line snarls in his chest

ow about I just cut the asses out of all your trousers, save us both some grief?"
He smiles at that and Bones does too

a simple GK 2233.04, there in an era that encourages a pristine canvas of skin because Jim wants them to remain

this is fabulous and wonderful and already in my memories. GAH! thank you.

why yes, i am stalking this story.

hostage in a bed with the electronic enemy whispering around

they're both men of science and reason and this has little to do with either. This does not make the phenomenon less real

he wishes he could watch a sleeping Kirk and pet, and not be justifying it in terms of pain

oh man, SO good.

ahahahahahahaha wrings hands and blushes! you like me, you really really like me! [/sallyfield]

also, re: downthread, I totally want to see if you do make "captain smartass" and "dr. grumpypants" icons.

Bonus deleted paragraph, that did not work for me in the whole thing 'cause you love me:

Jim is a terrible patient, treats Sickbay as hostile territory and is notorious for trying to negotiate an escape by threats he has no intention of carrying out and blandishments he does. McCoy has counteracted this by making it widely known that anyone who takes Jim Kirk's bribes over McCoy's orders can proceed to pack their bags and be ready to get off at the next Starbase. While McCoy's bluster and grumbles can usually be safely ignored, where patient safety is concerned and Jim's safety most especially, they have learned that Jim is to be respected but McCoy should be feared. For McCoy, this is an entirely satisfactory state of affairs.
