Summary
Suspended from Starfleet Academy, life hanging precariously in the balance after his clandestine attempt at the Kobayashi Maru, Jim Kirk hates himself, the world, and primarily Spock: the mysterious instructor who caught him cheating. Not to be defeated, Jim hatches a brilliant, idiotic plan to get on Spock's good side in hopes to set things right. But Jim’s plan goes awry as he realizes quite abruptly that Spock is less of a stranger than he thought.

Summary
It’s the final six months of their original five-year mission and Kirk is badly injured in a cave-in, requiring an 11-day stay in the medical clinic on Starbase 4. McCoy and Spock are at his side, while the crew enjoys the base’s shore leave opportunities.
Comfortable but bedridden, Kirk has time to reflect and scrutinize his decisions over the past 4½ years. Dozens of TOS episodes are referenced. Kirk’s neighbor in the med clinic, a telepath, learns of Spock’s plan to undergo Kolinahr and spills the beans to Kirk. Jim confronts Spock about it and learns what Spock really wants: a t’hy’la bond with him.
During a series of earnest conversations and intimate, late-night melds to discover if their minds are compatible, Jim and Spock slowly reveal their innermost selves and acknowledge a deep love for one another.
The story spans only two weeks, but there are lots of references to the past and future. Story is canon compliant with the episodes, but not with the movies, since Spock never goes to Gol.

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
A run-of-the-mill diplomacy mission turns into a rescue operation when Kirk meets Spock, a sex slave, and purchases him immediately in an attempt to free him. Little does Kirk know that Spock will soon become the most important person in his life.
~
This is a slowburn fic with lots of guilty Kirk, building tension, and a very traumatized Spock who falls head over heels for his savior. There is implied/referenced past rape/sexual assault (not graphic) so please read at your own risk!Bookmarked by AbsentMindedArtist

Summary
Sequel to Dear Spock: Happily ever after is not an endpoint but rather a state that needs constant maintenance. A post STID story that deals with all the unpleasant stuff between our protagonist saving the day and the start of the five-year mission but with humor. Even in a 'coma' Jim can cause complete chaos with his programming 'skills'. Pairings: Established and trying to keep it that way K/S, and it’s complicated U/M.
In other words, imagine what STID would be like if Jim and Spock were already married by Vulcan standards before everything went to hell.
This story is dedicated to anybody who thought STID would make so much more sense if Jim and Spock were together.This can probably be read as a standalone with minimal confusion.
