Bequeathed is a Kirk/Spock story by Carol A. Pierce.

It was published in the print zine Naked Times #9.

Excerpt

"You claim to be able to prove the existence of reincarnation," Spock began. "To the point and quite honestly," the Seeress said, "I claim only what is. I have proven reincarnation as a means of growth for all beings. Each being is a composite, Spock, a result of all they have been or will be…"

Reactions and Reviews

1986

BEQUEATHED tells of past lives and fate and destiny in the form of a well-written story-within-a-story. There are no great insights or revelations here, but the theories dealt with are interesting and the story is good.

1987

BEQUEATHED was probably my least favorite story in the zine, as it seemed to be reaching to make its point (one of reincarnation). I did find it to be an interesting piece, though it seemed to lack a certain eroticism that I admit to enjoying in K/S. With a few cuts here and there, it could have appeared in a genzine - which might have changed my view of it entirely. It's a good story, but not the spicy flavor of good K/S.

1989

Conceptually, this is the most interesting of the stories in NAKED TIMES 9, even though it's really a dressed up formula story. We have a past life here that is a pretty standard slave story—except that the slave owner is female. I like the seeress who locates the past life of Kirk and Spock, but she could stand more development as a character. I also can't see Spock "squirm in his chair". Spock would have more control, but that's a minor point.
