And you're making me wait for the other three parts?!?! *whimpers and claws at the internet*
I'll do my best to be patient, and it's made a lot easier for how well this one part in particular stands on its own. Pike's loneliness is so heartbreaking in this part, even though his reasons for keeping to himself (McCoy, McCoy, McCoy *g*) shine through that. His reaction to McCoy's hot-as-fuck transmission was painfully intense, to the point that I was ready to beg for all narrative logic to be thrown aside - just get McCoy back on Earth NOW so they can be together. Especially when I can picture McCoy's wounded reaction to that short "Miss you too" so damn well.
Pike's interactions with Spock Prime were also wonderfully done, I love how Pike comes to both appreciate and resent Spock as someone who could theoretically keep his lovers safe and just isn't doing enough to do so. And the tension of that almost-meld was downright electric - love the way you played that darker edge, Spock almost taking what he wants and Pike having to physically slap him away. Just incredible. Whew.
Soo... I'm just gonna lurk here until the next part goes up. Hope that's alright with you. *g*
I'm sorry but I didn't even manage to fully polish the monster yet :) (As good as done, but even posting takes a lot of time as I set the italics manually in the code.)
Yeah, lots of Pike/McCoy here :) And it will remain a steady undercurrent.
Glad you liked the SpockPrime scene! It took me ages to tackle and I'm still not completely satisfied with it, so thanks for commenting on it :)))
