Sol Invictus (Kirk/McCoy, R), Part 1

[lindmere]

Written for space_wrapped for charming prompt #32.

Summary: A powerful being decides to find out what the Enterprise crew is made of by plunging them into darkness, unaware that it suits a lot of them just fine.

Warnings: Brief but explicit sex, bad language, scientific humanism.

You are too kind as always! Warning: the science is preposterous. I wrote crap science, and the worst part is, I liked it. What is happening to me???

There’s a long moment of silence, followed by female throat-clearing. “Good story, sir.”

Okay, I LOL'd.

*races on*

[lindmere]

Hey, you've gotta laugh when the boss tells a "funny" story, right?

Also, your icon is still oof.

[caitri]

I love this--it really reinforces that the whole crew is like a family!!

[lindmere]

Yes, they are--I so hope we get to see that in the next film.

enjoying this immensely! Love how the crew is pulling together to make the best of an inconvenient situation. I always love those 'all-powerful universal entity fucks with the
Enterprise' stories.

Space does seem to be full of a lot of bored "superior" beings just waiting for a starship to fuck with. Glad you're enjoying it!

Human DNA, I mean, not yours in particular, although I have my suspicions.
I lol'd. And I mean that literally.

Check to make sure we’re not getting the same false report on life support systems.
COMPETENCE KINK UNF

Jim’s hands make it as far as the knees before he knows, for sure, that it’s Bones.
That... is just incredibly sweet. I must have a knee thing.

YOU AND YOUR SCIENCE ARE SO HOT. Also, 'sepulchral'.

“Gee whiz, I’m the Captain. Plus, the top-ranking person in the universe, at least until Q comes back.”
How clearly could I see Pine!Kirk saying this in my head, you may ask? UTTERLY. 100%.

“I prefer to be circumspect, sir. I think there’s a pretty good chance we’re going to get out of this.”
haha sassssss I love it. The whole exchange was perfectly toned.

AND ON TO PART TWO.

OH YOU SWEET THING! I was so tickled to see a comment from you, DOUBLE YAY!!!

So now I know you have both a vocabulary and a knee kink. *Files for future reference*
