Hokay so, I'm taking a break at work & am bored, but can't really work on anything longer than "short" because I won't be on break for too much longer. SO: first 5-10 (I seriously doubt it'll go over five, but juuust in case) people to comment with a request get a drabble written. (Like 100-300 words, most likely.) There is one rule, which is no

Oh, oh, is a timestamp for 'Symphony' allowed? I'd love to see Jim playing at a jazzy bar or something, being all sexy, and Spock being jealous when other people check him out. OR SOMETHING. I may have a jealousy kink.

[singingintime]

It um, got too long to logically fit here. *rubs back of neck sheepishly* So it's riiight over here. It was so deliciously fun to write, so I hope it satisfies! :D

[singingintime]

Welllll, I never outright said this in Symphony, but I imagined Amanda as being dead by the time it happened, sooo I had to tweak this a little to fit. I hope it still fits the bill! I'm totally giving you license to request a second one, if this isn't what you were thinking. :D

:D

Prompt: Spock, Kirk, nutella. illogically delicious.

IDEK. D:

(uhhh, I could maybe guess, but what does "timestamp" refer to?)

Re: :D

[singingintime]

Yesss this made me so excited because I LOVE NUTELLA. 8D And a timestamp is something set in the same 'verse as another story, either before or after whatever happens in the story--kind of like little snippets of sequels or prequels, I guess. I don't know why they call them that, though! :D ANYWAY, Nutellaaaaa:

"Jesus, Jim, some of us are trying to eat," gripes Bones.

Jim just mashes the piece of toast the rest of the way into his mouth, humming with bliss. "Fuck you," he mumbles happily through crumbs. "Do you know how long it's been since I had Nutella and toast?" He finishes the last bite off, closing his eyes and letting the delicious dark hazelly-chocolate taste sink into his tongue. "Too fucking long, Bones. Too. Fucking. Long

THIS IS EVERYTHING I COULD I HAVE EVER DREAMED OF WANTING AND MORE, BUT BETTER!!!!!!!!

PLUS GROUCHY!BONES IS AMAZING.

...It suddenly occurs to me that a conversation between Oscar the Grouch and Bones could be hilariously awesome. new broTP now, IDEK.

OH HELL YES JIM, GET YOUR COSTCO SIZED NUTELLA AND MAKE OUT WITH SPOCK IN FRONT OF EVERYONE. ALL THE TIME. AND BONES CAN BE ALL FML! ALL DAY, IT WILL BE AMAZING ♥ ♥ ♥

Re: :D

[singingintime]

:D :D YAY, I'm so absolutely delighted you enjoyed it! ♥♥ *all smiles* And Bones and grouchiness? Totally married. (Just like me and Nutellaaa.) In conclusion, :DDD

[slytherin_gypsy]

Kirk gets a pep talk from Pike *a lot* sooner and joins Starfleet the same year as Spock. They become best friends and try (unsuccessfully) to hide their true feelings from each other.

[singingintime]

I imagine this as being a scene in a much longer thing filled with even more UST and other stuff. I guess this is technically preslash--hope that's okay . . .

"You need to sleep."

"Nah. Sleeping is for un-awesome people," Jim tosses back over a yawn, scrolling through his PADD and trying to find a specific tactics article he read last semester. He knows he loaded it--now he just needs to find the fucker, hiding in amongst his million other tabs

[singingintime]

He can just feel that damn eyebrow raising behind him. "I do not understand why the fact that I helped code the latest incarnation of the Kobayashi Maru makes it different from any other test administered by Starfleet," Spock says.

Jim turns clumsily to him, squinting up. "Yeah? Well it is, okay? It--" and normally he'd never say something this stupid out loud, but god, his mouth's running away without him, and the words come tumbling out without his consent-- "if I fail this, it's like failing you, okay

[slytherin_gypsy]

This is absolutely perfect!

"if I fail this, it's like failing you, okay?"

*Dies a little inside* Oh, Jim! You can be such a woobie.

Thank you so much for writing it :)

[charlietinpants]

hey =D can i get a prompt from the 'Symphony' timestamp, but one about Jim's life and his point of view, his reasons for pursuing Spock and what-not (other additional, wonderful details)

...please?

[singingintime]

Sho thang! :D Might interest you to know that the eventual sequel I have planned is from Jim's POV, too.

Here's the thing: Jim can't stand not knowing things.

Seriously, it's always been that way. It's why he ate glue in kindergarten (his mom's third of many calls to poison control), why he kissed Susan Jackson in fourth grade (no, her lipgloss didn't taste like strawberries), and why he picked up that first Dizzy Gillespie tape in that tiny secondhand bookstore when he was eleven (it felt solid and right). He's just a curious person. Can't let sleeping dogs lie.

So at first he thinks it's just that--that Spock's a mystery. There's his enormous talent, for one; Jim's left a little in awe every time the guy puts bow to strings, because man, the sounds he pulls smoothly from his violin? Incredible. Indescribable. And while Jim's wondering how he got so good, he starts noticing the way that Spock concentrates on whatever he's doing, with all of himself focused so intensely. Like doing his best at whatever-it-is is the most

[snackbreak]

Wow, this was beautiful, my heart is melting all over the place for Jim ♥

I especially loved this line:
Most of the time, his face is blank with that deep concentration, so when he does give you an expression it's like--like a prism, one little line of white light refracting into something absolutely beautiful. ♥♥♥

[singingintime]

Thank you! :D That was my favorite line tooooo. *grin* Glad you liked.
