Nom de Plume is a Kirk/Spock story by Natasha Solten.

It was published in the print zine First Time #11.

Summary

"Spock asks Kirk for advise on choosing a pen-name."

Excerpt

"Okay, so since his suggestion is not offensive to you, I still don't understand what the problem is." "I can think of no other names to use. I thought perhaps you might be of some assistance in this area?" You want me to think up pen-names for you?" Spock swallowed and looked uncomfortable. Then he nodded. "Well, why didn't you say so in the first place? I'd be happy to help." Spock looked genuinely relieved. "I appreciate this very much, sir." "Sir? That won't do. If I'm to be involved in something as personal as thinking up your pen-names, you can at least call me Jim." "Thank you, Jim." The brown eyes rose again."

Reactions and Reviews

I recently read an old story called Nom de Plume by Mooni in First Time 11, and while I thought the idea in itself was kind of fun, seeing Kirk and Spock trying to come up with pen names for Spock, I didn't really think the story was all that impressive. It was short, and kind of awkwardly written, but the idea was fun
