He felt Spock’s dark eyes following him as he kicked off his boots, pulled off his clothes, and crawled beneath the covers without showering. He lay on his side, facing Spock, and said, “Long day.”

Summary
The universe is cold and full of danger, it is a dark forest where hunters Prowl and prey on the weak. Space is vast, obscure and filled with great silence. Civilizations hide from each other, rarely making contact, and if so, it is to attack.
Earth stands alone, and as humanity struggle to survive, the starship Enterprise is sent to correct past mistakes. Failure is not an option.
Far away from home, in uncharted territory, Captain and crew are unlucky enough to make first contact. Now they must fight to survive it.
Also-
My version of TOS classic episode-" Balance Of Terror", placed in a Dark forest- AOS universe, with Spirk (naturally) in mind.

Summary
“If, on the contrary, two stars should really be situated very near each other, and at the same time so far insulated as not to be materially affected by the attractions of neighboring stars, they will then compose a separate system, and remain united by the bond of their own mutual gravitation towards each other.”

Summary
Part 8 of the "Soul Possessions" series, covering the secret missions undertaken by Spock and Uhura into the Neutral Zone, as they were assigned in Chapter 26 of part 7 "Pais e Santos".
Readers familiar with this series know to expect the unexpected. This mission is dangerous, and will touch on dark moments from Spock's past and Nyota's (I never do graphic violence or descriptions of abuse. I warn readers at the start of any chapter if there will even be hints. I provide a summary of plot points so that anyone who needs to can skip forward).
But with the darkness there is also hope and peace and important achievements. That is why I begin with James Ryan's poem. And there will also be fun. Orions get involved, lots of them. And our OTP need to disguise themselves as Romulans. Remember how interesting that was in "Alpha Incognito"?
For anyone not familiar with this series -- the word count for "Soul Possessions" is now equal to four fat paperback novels. You can imagine how much head canon and how many original characters have been created. This work will be tricky to understand if you have not read parts 1-7 in the series. I am biased, but I think starting from the beginning is worth it!Series

Summary
Save for the beeps of the computer, the bridge is silent as the image comes onscreen. The man who Jim surmises to be the commander stands with his back facing them, and a helmeted soldier salutes before moving off.
The Romulan commander turns. Only Jim catches Spock gasping along with the rest of them.-
On the edge of the neutral zone, the Enterprise makes contact with a Romulan ship.
This is a story you've seen before, but not as you know it. -

Summary
What would have happened if, instead of going along with the defeated Romulan commander's wishes at the end of TOS: Balance of Terror, Captain Kirk had beamed him off his disintegrating starship after all?

Will it blow up into a diplomatic incident, pushing the Federation and the Romulan Star Empire back towards war? But most of all - what possessed Kirk to save his mortal rival in the first place?

Summary
James Tiberius Kirk - friend, brother, lover - has one great and glorious ambition: to captain a starship. It is the defining passion of his life for which he has sacrificed every relationship he once held dear.
S'chn T'gai Spock left his life behind on Vulcan to join Starfleet, against the wishes of his family. Ostracised by his people, he has forged his path amongst alien strangers, unfamiliar with and resentful of his cool, logical ways.
When the USS Enterprise loses her Captain, they are thrown together as Starfleet's newest command team. These very different men begin a relationship that will define their lives, shape their destinies, and reveal the lengths that each will go to for friendship. And for love.
A novel-length retelling of original Star Trek canon through the lens of one of the greatest relationships ever committed to film. Using missing scenes, episode tags, and original story-telling. Ultimately a Generations fix-it.

Summary
Co-Written by Cherpring, Cheree Cargill, and Momthing
Once upon a time, there was an online story group on Yahoo! called The Spock and Christine Mailing List. Pretty much all we did was write and share stories based, obviously, on Spock and Christine. But occasionally we'd get so silly that we'd collaborate on the looniest story we could come up with. This is one of them, written by myself, Cherpring, and the late Momthing. It is basically a redneck version of "Balance of Terror". I think Cherpring started it. If it offends you, that's intentional. We were intentionally politically incorrect when we wrote it and stole at least one of Jeff Foxworthy's "You might be a redneck" jokes. Anyway, enjoy...
