This was amazing!! Thank you for writing this ultra rare pairing, and for having some even rarer smut in it! This couple is so hot (and so is Spock/McCoy FTW!), and should be paired together more often. Thank you again!

[circ_bamboo]

Thank you! They are pretty ridiculously hot, aren't they?

[the_sexypancake]

They are indeed! And what's more, you write them very well! I would be incredibly happy if you tangled with this pairing again. ^_^

[circ_bamboo]

Hee! We'll see -- it depends whether or not someone gives me a good prompt with them or not.

I loveeee this Jim. ♥
And for once, I approve of the Uhura/Kirk. Excellent.

Thank you!

It's not normally my first choice of pairing, but I saw the prompt and said, hey, what the heck.

[hellokatzchen]

This? Rocks. (Seriously, a Kirk/Uhura that is made of win! I thought I'd never see the day! Although I haven't looked all that hard...)

[circ_bamboo]

Thank you!

Lovely. ♥

I especially liked the assortment of background characters, the use of the different languages, the slow courtship, McCoy's warning (adorable!) and a truly believable scenario for these two to get together.

Thank you! I'm glad you think the scenario was believable.
