Symphony for Stars and Planets, Part 1

[singingintime]

The room is a riot of sound--rehearsal begins in two minutes and the tension is palpable, building in the air like a crescendo. Cellos sigh; an oboe trembles in a test of vibrato, and a horn rings out in triumphant fifths. Below it all, the drums rumble like thunder gathering at the horizon.

Spock can feel it, itching along his spine, but he

I've been a bit leery of Star Trek AUs, because I'm not entirely sure how and if they'll work, but this. I'm so glad I didn't pass this over.

Lord, be still my beating heart!

[singingintime]

AUs can be awfully tricky, can't they? I'm so very delighted to hear you enjoyed it. ♥

This is an awesome fic...but one minor quibble. Clarinets don't vibrato. Other than that, I love the AU you've built up it's very Band realistic.

[singingintime]

Ooh, thank you so much for pointing that out! I'll change it right away. I'm glad you enjoyed it anyway!

THE GIDDY, IT IS CRAWLING UP MY THROAT AND BEGGING TO BE RELEASED IN A FLURRY OF UNSIGHTLY GIGGLING.

I am at work though, so mostly I am poorly repressing it.

Seriously, this is freaking AWESOME - everyone fits their instrument perfectly and omg I am pretty sure my favorite part so far is when Spock cannot stop himself from being all "you play chess?" and EEEEEEE I love it! OFF TO READ PART TWO AND PROBABLY EXPLODE FROM CONTAINED JOY NOW :D :D :D

[chakichu]

I...think I love you.

Spock as a violin is win (but I'm biased towards it since I play myself), Kirk is my hero, and zomg Scotty beating Portal in an hour made the fic for me :D I know there's more after this, but I just thought I'd let you know how pure awesome this is :DDDDDDD

[singingintime]

Thank you sooo much for taking the time to let me know you liked it! I hope you enjoyed the rest, too! :D

(And omg, Scotty is my secret favorite in that scene! Maybe someday I will write about him and his AWESOME VIDEO GAMES.)

Oh, Band love... I totally own that 'Hold Me' shirt. Will try to comment after reading to the end, but it might take me a while. This is incredibly awesome so far, though!

[singingintime]

:D jealousy! I always wanted one but never found one that was both stylish AND nerdily awesome, so I held off. Glad you liked this part--hope you liked the rest, too!
