Dear Star Trek, My other fandoms have started to complain that I'm not spending enough time with them. Possibly they have a point. Maybe tomorrow next week in a month we can come up for air and talk about that? Love, Rachel

All Star Trek, No Waiting
Rec: Vid
[personal profile] such_heights is crazy awesome, as proved by We Go Together. Star Trek as 1950s, Grease-esque musical! SO GREAT!

Recs: Gen team!fic and misc
Anonymous things from the Kink Meme:
  • Five times the crew of the Enterprise met their AU!genderswapped selves. Ahahaha.

  • Filled prompt is filled, aka the one where Standard is lolspeak. Sample: “Negotiation, Jim.” stated Spock with faint disapproval. “You’re doing it wrong.”

  • A Star Trek/Star Wars crossover! Live Long And Get This Walking Carpet Out O My Way: Jim & Han aren't getting along... OR ARE THEY? [Kink Meme, but, sadly, no sex]

  • I adored this untitled Kirk/Chapel flirting fic. Yay, Christine Chapel!

  • Untitled prison!AU, which has a side-order of Sulu/Chekhov. Angsty and with significant whumpage! Do not click if that is not your thing! (Hint, though: it all turns out okay.)[NC-17]

  • [personal profile] chaletian wrote Faites Vos Jeux / Rien Ne Va Plus: things the crew takes bets on, and what odds are on the books. :-)

    [profile] hjpatience wrote A little knowledge is a dangerous thing: stuff Kirk knows about his time, stuff he doesn't know about his team, and stuff he really doesn't want to know about his team.

    [profile] malleableyfic wrote The Rank, The Kids, The Silence, The Noise, where Christopher Pike's family hears about the battle with Nero on the news. Great family dynamics story.

    [personal profile] skywaterblue wrote Paradise Found: 15-year old Gaila arrives on Earth as a refugee, and slowly finds her feet. I heart Gaila.

    [personal profile] thistlerose wrote Access Denied, where Jim's just saved the day and wants to get some, and um. Things don't go quite as planned. [Awesome!Gaila is awesome!]

    [community profile] trisfic wrote Four Consequences of the Unexpected and Unlikely Friendship Between James T. Kirk and Nyota Uhura. One of those consequences: bitchin' earrings. (File under "Ahahahaha")

    Recs: Spock/Uhura
    I really want to congratulate this anonymous person at the Kink Meme for writing Convincing, where Spock gets a little riled up at how much Nyota is talking about Jim. In short, daaaaamn. Seriously. [Spock/Uhura, NC-17 liek whoa, side order very toppy!Spock]

    [personal profile] fifmeister wrote Things Unspoken: On the first day of Advanced Phonology class, Nyota Uhura is one of the only students willing to look Spock in the eye. [UST]

    [personal profile] mrstater wrote The Cheat: If he had justified his act of favoritism with logic, he cannot remember it now, as he moves close enough to her that she will not miss it when he says, very quietly, "If I had not transferred you to the Enterprise, I most certainly would have lost you." (Possibly a little too angsty, but still a great pre-relationship story.)

    [profile] taraljc wrote A Thousand Words For Snow: The Vulcan language has no word for "lover". Nyota finds this hard to bear. (NC-17, sweetness)

    Recs: Kirk-centric
    [personal profile] putigress2012 wrote Dubious Past, where Jim hustled as a kid, and ends up, as an adult, meeting one of his former johns across the negotiating table. Awkwardness ensues, with the rest of the team not understanding what the hell is going on. Really, really great character piece. [Kink Meme]

    [personal profile] peapods42 wrote Getting There, where Jim gets high and pouts. Another "hurry up and be my friend, Spock!" story. Feels like it might continue?

    Recs: Kirk/McCoy
    [profile] 0bscurity wrote Body Language, the one where Jim realizes Bones knows sign language, and Jim learns it in order to seduce Bones with dirty talk. [Written for the Kink Meme, obviously. NC-17]

    [personal profile] dancinbutterfly wrote The One With The Romulan Ale, aka the one where Jim drags Bones to Vegas and all the usual bad drunken decisions happen. YES I SAID ALL. [NC-17, sweetness]

    [personal profile] emiime wrote Bruised, where Jim's banged-up and Bones is exhausted and they have to be careful. Lovely lovely hurt/comfort. [NC-17]

    [personal profile] tosca1390 wrote How Jim Finally Figures Out Why Bones Just Won't Date Girls. Lives up to the title! [NC-17]

    Recs: Kirk/Spock
    Anonymous people wrote the following Kink Meme entries:
  • Seven Assertions, in which Jim is so, so wrong. [R]

  • Don't Bring Me Flowers, the one where Jen Kirk is being courted by an Ambassador, and Spock isn't comfortable with the situation. [NC-17, genderfuck]

  • Fighting Off All Your Suitors Is Not My Idea Of A Good Time, aka the one where Spock is, basically, Helen of Troy

  • James Tiberius Kirk Does Not Cuddle, where it's stupid to want to cuddle with a Vulcan, and Jim totally doesn't want to ... excepthedoeskindofalot. [R, sweetness]

  • Opiate: “Jim,” repeated Spock, “I wish to ask permission to go further. I do not believe I will be satisfied with only mouth-to-mouth contact.” [drugged!sex, NC-17]

  • The Original: Spock Prime comes to visit. Reboot Spock is jealous. [Kirk/Spock UST]

  • Untitled voyeur fic, where Jim is fiddling 'round with the ship's cameras and catches Spock. Um. In the middle of something. [NC-17]

  • You're A Man Now, Mr. Spock: unexpected consequences of being half-human, half Vulcan include going through puberty a little late! It turns out Jim is not helpful in these situations. Except with the sexin'. That, he can help with. [NC-17]

  • [personal profile] corpus_invictus wrote Five Ways for the Kink Meme - prompt: "five ways Spock says 'I love you' through technical terms".

    She also wrote Obscenities, where Jim overhears Spock swearing when Spock doesn't know he's being overheard, and gets turned on. Funny and hot and I loved it. [NC-17]

    [profile] crimsonclad wrote Cut & Fucking Paste (which I recommended last week, and so did the entire rest of fandom) and has now posted its sequel, Edit, where Kirk is hurt badly, forgets which universe he's in, and kisses Spock goodbye. When he gets better, well. Awkward. Especially since Scotty sent out a shipwide WTF email. [Spock/Uhura, funny]

    [personal profile] deepsix wrote A Piece of the Game. Kirk is taking this thing too far; Spock intervenes. ("this thing" = goading people into choking him; "intervenes" = shows him it's not all fun and games unless you're with Spock and even then it might not be a good idea) [hurt/comfort, a little dark]

    [profile] jenlynn820 wrote The Human Heart. A transporter accident removes all Spock's Vulcan DNA. Angsty hurt/comfort, side order hot sex. [NC-17]

    [profile] kaitlyn142 wrote Checkmate, in which The Enterprise decides this "closest friend" stuff is bullshit and takes matters into her own hands. [R]

    Karmageddon wrote Gamma Shift Infomercials, where Spock masturbates to infomercials and Kirk catches him. The hilarity is unexplainably awesome. GO READ NOW. [NC-17, silly]

    [profile] thelilytriad is writing a great "consequences of Spock Prime melding with Jim" series. Entries so far include Vokaya t'Telsu, where Jim tells Spock about the meld, and Zarahk-Tor, where Nyota, who can see what's coming, calls off her relationship with Spock. I am eagerly awaiting part three!

    [personal profile] mithrigil wrote Similar Activities - Post-movie, Spock brings his bonafides to Jim to shore up his assignment. Jim doesn't care. ("Bonafides" is not a metaphor here, but basically this is like the pizza guy showing up at the beginning of porn: an excuse to get a dude in the room.) [NC-17, PWP]

    [personal profile] raphaela667 wrote Five Times Jim Kirk Called Spock 'Sweetheart', which is full of angst and teasing and hurt/comfort and sex. Fantastic. [Kink Meme entry, NC-17]

    [profile] sans_pertinence wrote through water. Spock Prime did something to Jim's head. He's not okay. [NC-17, hurt/comfort]

    [personal profile] stardate64783 wrote I'll Get It, an adorable snippet where Jim is determined to figure out how to pronounce Spock's first name. [PG]

    [profile] terra_lily just finished her fan-bloody-tastic untitled kink meme entry, in which Jim is being noble and not interfering in Spock & Nyota's relationship, even though he has all Spock Prime's memories and Jim's painfully in love. Instead, Jim tries to be a good friend and protects Spock LIKE WHOA. Really enjoyable awesome! [I forgot to rate this - R, maybe?]

    [personal profile] vellum wrote Reckoning: To get Spock to take it from behind is a challenge. Jim loves a challenge. [PWP, NC-17]

    She also wrote Where Kirk Is A Stupid Slut, which is hilarious... until suddenly it's kind of aching and lovely and needlesharp. [NC-17]

    [personal profile] waketosleep wrote Discovered Check. Jim's been throwing their chess games. Spock declares this is unacceptable. [UST, friendship]

    Recs: Kirk/Spock/Uhura
    An anonymous Kink Meme writer committed the following: this scorching untitled threesome fic where Spock accidentally overhears a dream Nyota is having, and decides to make it come true. [NC-17, slight D/s overtones]

    [personal profile] stewardess wrote Agreement, where Spock and Nyota invite Jim to be their secondary. I love that a)Spock & Nyota came to this conclusion! It is indeed the best way to handle Jim! and b)the sex is hot. [NC-17]

    Rec: Kirk/Sulu
    [personal profile] helens78 wrote A Little Like Obsession (a sequel to Kind of Habit Forming), where Kirk & Sulu keep having kind-of anonymous hook-ups. This time, Sulu's running late, and boundaries get blurred. Hot!imperfect!sex is hot and imperfect. (NC-17, PWP)

    Rec: Kirk/Uhura
    [personal profile] jain wrote Matched Set: All of the members of Starfleet were issued five tunics, three pairs of trousers, and five dresses. (NC-17; cross-dressing but not really since it's socially acceptable. Still, Kirk-in-a-dress is a pretty awesome image.)

    Recs: McCoy-centric
    In the Kink Meme, an anonymous person contributed Five Times Leonard McCoy Agreed with That Green-Blooded S.O.B., which totally delivered on the title.

    [profile] 6street wrote I'm A Doctor, Not A Sex Therapist, where Bones really hates this part of his job. Sample: "I don't even see how this could be defined as sex," McCoy grumbled, wiping blood away from the surprisingly large puncture mark on Kirk's hip. "That's because you didn't see the way her proboscis glistened in the candlelight," Kirk said smugly. [Ahahaha]

    [profile] la_belle_dame wrote I Think I Waste Your Sweetness, which is a McCoy/Chapel fic that TOTALLY CAUGHT ME UNAWARES. MY GOD THE HOTNESS. It earned those caps! Go read it! [NC-17]

    [profile] malleablyficwrote the doctor is out. Yay, grumpy Bones!

    [profile] mekosuchinae wrote watch yourself, where Bones is freaking tired of Jim hitting on everyone.

    [profile] speccygeelgirl (who, incidentally, wins my prize for "best lj handle ever") wrote 5 Things McCoy is Not, and 1 He Is. (McCoy/Sulu)

    Recs: Reboot RPS
    Oh, come on, you knew it was only a matter of time.

    [personal profile] bekkis wrote I Think I Saw a Porno Like This Once: The official line is they met through a friend of a friend at a party. What actually happens, is fucking Zach picks him up at the gym. Of all places. [Pine/Quinto, NC-17, PWP]

    [personal profile] sparky77 wrote Plan C: Chris is still half asleep and rubbing at his eyes like a child as he stumbles onto set. Zach walks over to him, hands him a bag of jelly beans and whispers in his ear, “Here, have some jelly beans. Want to fuck later?” [Pine/Quinto, NC-17]

    She also wrote The George Clooney Experience, because she "[is] of the firm belief that every fandom needs a story where someone fucks George Clooney." I CONCUR. [Clooney/Pine, NC-17]

    [personal profile] winterlive wrote Hit The Floor and You Know I Don't Ask For Much, both of which feature yearning!inexperienced!Chris lusting after oh-my-god-toppy!Zach. I do not have words for the hotness. Like, be near a fan when you read these stories. Or an open window. [Pine/Quinto, d/s overtones, NC-17-you-better-believe]

    Links: Trek-related stuff
    Memory Alpha, the Star Trek wiki! For all your Trek-related factual needs!

    If you're not already subscribed to [community profile] ontd_startrek, over on LJ, go. GO NOW. (Ignore the subscribers who seem to not understand that Zach Quinto is, yes, gay, and that's okay.)

    You probably don't want to do this in public (I don't!), but my new shameful indulgence is browsing the paparazzi gallery at ChrisPine.Org. They are mostly pictures of him getting out of his car and walking places! But somehow I still want to look at them! *realizes she is an awful person*

    An avant-garde photog made this video portrait of Zachary Quinto where, um, they basically throw buckets of milk at him. What do you mean, gay?

    This interview with Zach & Chris made me want to slap the interviewer, but they were pretty adorable.

    Some genius did a Trek parody of Kate Beaton's "Ooh Mr Darcy! A Fanfiction". (And since I know you'll want it, here's a whole bunch of Kate's Austen comics in one place.)

    In one of Letterman's Top Ten, he did Top Ten Lines Never Said On Star Trek, including the classic "Set Phasers to Fabulous!" Read by Leonard Nimoy. [YouTube]

    [personal profile] buffyx put together WE JUST FELT EACH OTHER'S ENERGY AND IT WAS NICE, a guide to the epic bromance of Adam Lambert and Kris Allen. They are both so freaking adorable.

    [personal profile] miss_begonia wrote (I Think You're) Crazy, the one where Kris Allen is a tiny, unpredictable bastard. (Adam/Kris friendship, awesome)

    In the Stargate universe, [personal profile] scifi_tv_addict made Open Your Eyes, an unbelievably gorgeous AU John/Vala vid. Seriously, even if they aren't your thing and you never imagined that ship, go watch this for the freaking beautiful editing job.

    This fan-made Green Lantern trailer, starring Nathan Fillion, blew my mind!
