Treaty of Access is a explicit het and explicit slash Star Trek: TOS story by Johanna Cantor. It was illustrated by Sherry Veltkamp.
The pairings are many, but the slash is between Kirk/OMC.
It was published in R & R #20.
Genre
The genre of this story is complicated.
It was initially labeled K/S by its author in ads and with this author's note: "The story that follows contains sexually explicit material describing same-sex intercourse. This is my version of K/S; please be advised that it's probably the only story of its genre that will appear in R&R. It may also be the grossest story that ever has or will appear in this zine; you have been warned."
While this story contains orgies, underage sex, sex toys, enemas, dubious consent, and more, it contains no K/S, despite the author labeling it as such. She apologizes for this last part in the next issue: "...it's been brought to my attention that calling "Treaty of Access," in R&R XX, a K/S is misleading to the point of being false advertising. This is entirely true, and my only defense is the admittedly feeble admission that it never occurred to me. I'd been thinking of it as "my K/S" for so long, you see. It is not a Kirk/Spock -- no way. It's a Kirk/Shoumeini -- which is the only way I see "slash". I hope no one bought XX only because they were expecting a steamy Kirk/Spock. If anyone did, return the zine to me in saleable condition, and I'll refund your money."
Reactions and Reviews
Cantor's TREATY OF ACCESS is a same sex story. The author offers it with a discretionary warning; this is a 'mature adults only' type of story. Kirk goes to dangerous lengths to get a special treaty and he is willing to risk is own well-being rather than the welfare of his crew to get it, Even so, he doesn't expect the orgies that are involved with the deal.

"Treaty of Access" written by Johanna Cantor and illustrated by S. Veltkamp is definitely rated X. I found it offensive. In this story Kirk must have homosexual relations with a regent to persuade him to sign a treaty. It also features heterosexual relations between Kirk and one of the medical staff and homosexual kiddie porn. [2]
