Summary

"The dissatisfaction Kirk feels in his relationship with Spock seems unfair until he forces Spock into a confrontation that changes the pitch of their relationship forever."

Reactions and Reviews

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]
