Reactions and Reviews

1990

This was a nearly perfectly written established relationship story about Kirk's wishing that Spock would behave more passionately. It was focused, moved well, and had the author's usual mastery of dialogue. It's a shame that the very same topic has been done before (which is more noticeable in established relationship stories, since there are fewer of them) — right down to Spock's frantic apology immediately after the sex scene. This particular story offered little that was new, though I did enjoy the author's highly readable, fresh, crisp style. [1]

I thought I was reading another first time/erotic dreams scenario, so it was a nice surprise that Kirk and Spock were already bonded. This is a good story about the dangers of lack of communication in any personal relationship. The only complaint I light have is that the story lost some of its momentum near the end. [2]

A good solid K/S story. The kind we read zines for. Not a great plot, just a good sexy, loving story. [3]
