This was my absolute favouritest of all the fics, and I voted for it! A really BEAUTIFUL piece of writing, bb. There was no part of this I didn't adore!

Wow, thank you!

Since it didn't get any votes at all for a long time I'd thought no one liked it. I was glad you and one other person did after all. (Saved my ego. :P)

This line was hilarious in its ambiguity! And then McCoy would smash in his head with the candleholder BEcause I so can see TOS McCoy hitting himself to avoid hitting someone else and then having to repair the damage LOLOL!!!

A great snippet! The voices are perfect and McCoy is absolutely a hoot here! So did he hit Spock with the candlestick in the end?

“I do, however, believe the occasion requires candles.”

There is so much win in that line. :)

I loved the tone, pacing and overall feel of this ficlet. You know I'm a sucker for some snark!
