Reactions and Reviews
1998
A very nice short story of an intimate look at Kirk’s experience in the mirror universe. He is trapped there and is confronted by mirror Spock who thinks it’s his Kirk at first. Mirror Spock has a relationship with his Kirk and when he comes into the cabin, he knows Kirk is shielding his thoughts. This is a dark, dangerous and sexy Spock who obviously is used to having his way with Kirk. This brief encounter starts Kirk imagining a relationship with his Spock and when mirror Spock kisses him, he feels intense attraction. No doubt! Upon his return to his own universe, Kirk begins a closer relationship with Spock.[1]
1999
Neat three page story of the mirror episode with Spock giving Kirk a searing kiss. Kirk takes back memories of a dark, dangerous Vulcan when he returns to his rightful universe. Very lovely. [2]
