    Summary

    Captain Kirk and Spock disappear off the bridge of the Enterprise and are held captive for "entertainment" by unknown aliens. Kirk quickly learns that the Spock that visits his cell is not in fact, Spock, and the real Spock is forced to watch as Kirk is hurt over and over again by someone who looks and acts just like him. Apparently physical and psychological torture is what these people consider entertainment.
    Can they escape this sick prison? And will Jim ever be able to trust Spock again if they do?

    Summary

    Jim manages a real laugh this time, brief but genuine, before it fades into the familiar ache. “Why does this keep happening, Bones? I loved Gary. And I thought he loved me back.”

    He's left wondering why his relationships always end with him heartbroken and feeling like nothing more than a pretty face. He tries so hard, yet the outcome is always the same.

    He should just focus on his studies and give up on the whole love thing.

    Summary

    Spock has worried over this task for a lifetime, and came up with a failsafe that might just save the Vulcan that exists in the next universe. The failsafe also involves deeply selfish things, but you can't fault an old man for wanting the youth to have more opportunities than he ever could.

    He sends drones ahead of him into the black hole, hoping that the automated programming he coded into them will change the past for the better.

    Mostly a romantic academy-era drama until a world is ending and they need to stop it from the point of view of the younger Spock and Jim Kirk.

    Or: If Jim Kirk can cheat his way out of a no-win simulation with some code, Spock can do it in real life with some time travel.
