Summary

"Spock is split in two, one male, one female, during an ion storm and finds his desire for Kirk is the needed catalyst to reunite him."

Reactions and Reviews

In an ion storm, Spock comes through the transporter with another of himself, a female! Why would she be naked? Why would she have long hair? Illogical. She smiles at Kirk; he covers her with his jacket with no reaction. Spock's eyes blaze at Kirk also, arousing him. The female Spock has no Y chromosomes; the male no X, so each is a pure version of male or female supposedly. Lovely thought Kirk has, that maybe this female Spock was "the half that loved me, the half I could love". I liked that when Kirk touches female-Spock in Sickbay, male-Spock in his quarters feels it. Kirk goes to Spock's cabin, where the male Spock aggressively claims him. The female Spock comes in; both think they can claim Kirk. Kirk of course asserts that he is not an object to be claimed and that he loves only one Spock, the whole one. I liked the three-way sex a lot. It doesn't make sense that Kirk had a sort of out-of-body experience when the two Spocks were reintegrating.
