Yeah, I said I wouldn't write another word of Star Trek until Merlin BB was finished. I lied, okay?

OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!

THIS FIC IS AMAZING!

Jim's endurance really is just amazing and obnoxious and astounding. I love Uhura's grudging respect/admiration/vague affection at the end. ^_^ AND BONES! OMG HE'S SO... BONES! XD His snark-coated concern is lovely and brilliant.

I'd love to see Jim earning more of Nyota's respect as the mission continues. She'd eventually be as exasperated/loyal/caring towards him as Bones is by the then. She'd think he needs a babysitter. XD

Wonderful fic, I hope to see more from you!

Now you're making me blush...

I think Kirk really does need a babysitter ;) And there needs to be a lot more Uhura fics than there are right now! Thank you!

I really liked this. You've captured all three characters really well, and the Kirk-Uhura dynamic, with a little respect and even fondness building under all the annoyance.

Thank you! I'm having so much fun with the reboot, exploring these characters and their relationships all over again!

Thank you! I completely agree - I love plotty, twisty, clever stories, but sometimes I just want them whumped and in need of a hug ;)

Oh gosh I like this! All the voices are so spot on and makes you want more! I love the familiarity they already seem to have with each other. Of course Jim falls over in the hallway and Bones will snark about it. And Uhura is lovely. I'd so love to see more of this universe.

Thank you! I love what the reboot has given me, a chance of writing them in the beginning of their friendships.
