Snow Meld is a Kirk/Spock story by Elwyn Conway.

It was published in the print zine Naked Times #7.

This story was translated into Russian in Логика сердца (2017).

Summary

"When Kirk and Spock are stranded on a planet entering its ice age, a finicky transporter gives them time to think of their past, of the feelings long-hidden… and of a future which might never exist."

Reactions and Reviews

The first story, SNOW MELD is unusual for the author in that it is a very short piece. Kirk and Spock are plunged once again into a situation which quickly gets out of cpntrol. They beam down to an ice-age planet and the transporter promptly breaks down, leaving them stranded. While this is far from an unique or new idea, the treatment is quite superb.

"Snow Meld," by Elwyn Conway, is well done, in Elwyn's usual great style. I always enjoy her work. There is an illo here that is nice, too. I did not see a name for the artist, so I'm assuming that Elwyn did this as well. Kirk and Spock are stranded on a cold and icy planet. When they huddle close for warmth, they must face their feelings for each other. The ending is very nice.
