Summary

"The Night after pon farr."

Excerpt

"I don't really know what I expected, but I think I was surprised to find you were not alien. Not really. How could we all have misjudged you so? Especially me, your closest friend? I've known you almost two years and I don't think I really knew or understood you until tonight."

Reactions and Reviews

My least favorite stories were A THOUSAND TIMES by Mara Lynn Cade and UNTIL TONIGHT by Peter Silverton.... While there is nothing 'wrong' with UNTIL TONIGHT, there is also nothing 'right'. This is a simple retelling of dozens of other "discovery" stories in which either Kirk or Spock "discover- their love for the other. There is nothing offensive in this little story, it's just very dull and ordinary.

Written by newcomer Peter Silverton, UNTIL TONIGHT was a different approach, yes. A widely read fellow I'm acquainted with says we women write entirely unlike men (in other words, sloppy), but how are we supposed to know how a guy feels? Maybe we could have a longer story next time and experience the same positive and living feeling that Peter generates in this one.

First person exposition of Kirk's night thoughts as he holds a sleeping Spock. Quite short and sweet; a different view of Spock's genitalia and hairless?? body.
