Summary

"When the artist swore to Kirk that the statue she was making of him would never be seen in public, he believed her... until Spock came back aboard ship to say circumstances were different."

Reactions and Reviews

The premise of this story held many interesting possibilities, but it appeared to me very underplayed. There could have been an elaborately conceived plan for Spock's "logical" acquisition of the statue. Most importantly, I didn't even realize when, in the author's words "he and Spock had acknowledged their feelings for each other". It went beyond subtlety into the overlooked. Yes, I went back to see if I'd missed something, but it wasn't there. To me, the whole idea was to present a way for them to discover each other, but when they did, the story was dropped before any of the lovely possibilities were explored.
