Title: Don't Stop Believing 4.3/? Beta: secret_chord25 (I've run out of adjectives) Pairing: Kirk/Spock pre-slash Rating: PG-13 Warnings: none Notes: For detailed story summary/navigation/word count, please visit the Master Post.
Lovely part. I really like how you deal with realistic mission action.
But my top favorite lines are this:
“Fine - I’ll do it for you. The most important rule of first contact is ‘4 Screws.’”
Spock blinks. Kirk grins and clarifies. “Don’t screw them, don’t screw with them, don’t screw them over, and don’t let them screw you in any way in return.”
Spock stares. “This must be... the most... liberal interpretation of the Prime Directive I have ever heard.”
I think I'll make "4Screws" a part of my personal canon :P
Linguistics is a kink of mine, too, because I remember that feeling when your brain is about to explode from handling three languages that are not your own at once all too well. It's literally mind-blowing, but at the end, if you're lucky, you're feeling on top of the world. :D
Oh God, don't get me started. I picked the music for piano compatability and the mood, but yeah, there was no way I didn't remember that. Sad. D:

I have a sneaking suspicion that this whole fic might, in fact, be perfect. <3
