Summary
A collection of Kirk and Spock friendship/hurt-comfort-oriented stories based on Classic Trek episodes, featuring: "First Duties"--a "Journey to Babel" sequel focusing on the real reason Spock changed his mind about donating blood to Sarek, and the ramifications it has for his relationship with his parents, once they find out--and "An Unexpected Illness" ( sequel to "The Immunity Syndrome" in which Spock is found to have contracted a disease from the giant ameba and Kirk and McCoy spend their leave on Starbase 6 caring for him as they try to find a cure). Also includes: "The Loneliness of Command" (missing scenes from "The Galileo Seven"-- Kirk helps Spock deal with his loss of two crewmen during his first landing party command)…"Darkness" (missing scenes from "Operation--Annihilate!"--how Spock deals with his brief blindness and then helps Kirk deal with Sam's death)…"A Last Embrace" (missing scenes from "Amok Time"--Kirk and Christine Chapel each try to help Spock deal with the pon farr; the only Spock/Christine story in the zine)…and "Heroes" (missing scenes from "The Savage Curtain"--Spock finds that his "image of Surak" is not exactly as he expected). Plus artistic tributes to DeForest Kelley/McCoy. [1]

- First Duties ("K&S, Sa, A; angst, h/c [G] A "Journey to Babel" sequel that focuses on the real reasons that Kirk and McCoy had to trick Spock into being Sarek's blood donor, and ramifications it has for Spock's relationship with his parents--especially Sarek--once they find out. This part: prologue dealing entirely with Spock's thoughts upon arriving to find Kirk after his attack by the")
- An Unexpected Illness ("K&S, Mc, hurt/comfort (PG for explicit descriptions of some superficial disease symptoms) Sequel to "The Immunity Syndrome" in which Spock is found to have contracted an alien disease from the giant ameba. He and McCoy spend their leave on Starbase 6 caring for Spock and trying to find a cure.")
- The Loneliness of Command; another online link ("K&S, angst, h/c [G] Missing Scenes from "The Galileo Seven" in which Spock, while recovering from his leg injury, tries--with Kirk's help--to deal with his feelings of shame over losing the lives of two men on the Murasaki 312 mission, his first away mission command.")
- Darkness ("A short back story to the episode "Operation: Annihilate!", covering how Spock dealt with his period of blindness and how Kirk dealt with his nephew, Peter, and the loss of his brother, Sam.")
- A Last Embrace ("(TOS, S/Ch, K&S; h/c, angst [PG for subject matter]) A few missing scenes from "Amok Time", falling between Spock's request that Christine make him plomik soup and his going to the Bridge with Kirk and McCoy upon arrival at Vulcan, mainly dealing with how Christine reacts to his condition and her discovery that Spock already has a wife --as well as more private talks between Spock and Kirk as he and Christine each try, in their own way, to help Spock deal with the pon farr.")
- Heroes ("K&S, mild angst, no slash (and no crying, for those who are bothered by that) [G] SUMMARY: Missing scenes from "The Savage Curtain", in which Spock discovers that his "image of Surak" is not *exactly* as he had expected it to be, and from after the episode, when Kirk helps him understand why.")
