Summary
“For god’s sake, Jim,” Leonard says around a mouthful of toast, “would you come sit down? You’re making me tired just lookin’ at you.”
“I just—” Jim starts to say. He cuts himself off with a shake of his head, hands coming up to scrub at his face, tug at his hair. “I need—”
“What you need is to get some food in you and then sleep a good eight hours,” Leonard interrupts.
---
Or, that time when Jim and Leonard had a rough day and Leonard just wants to help Jim relax.

Summary
“You lost our sashes in transport, Mr. Kyle?” Jim asked, his nerves on a knife’s edge already.
Mr. Kyle looked stunned and confused. “Sashes, Captain?”
Then Leonard noticed the lights were tinted wrong and the insignia of the Terran Empire had disappeared from the wall. “Jim,” he hissed.
Jim saw. The look in his eyes changed.
Then the door to the transporter room hissed open and Spock came in, and Spock was dressed differently and had shaved his beard so clean it was like it had never existed. Just like the disappearance of the insignia.
Leonard was struck silent with terrible fear.
----------------------
“Mirror, Mirror,” through the eyes of the “Mirror” Kirk, Spock, and McCoy. How the Terran Empire’s Kirk and McCoy coped with being stranded on the USS Enterprise and learned how to get home, what the Terran Empire’s Spock was thinking when he mind-melded with the Federation’s Dr. McCoy, and what happened when they were reunited on the ISS Enterprise.

Summary
Even after three years aboard Enterprise, Leonard McCoy has not quite overcome his fear of being aboard a shuttle. Up until this day, that fear had proven to be unjustified. Up until this day, Leonard never once considered that there were other ways to die aboard a space shuttle than blowing up, or suffocating in the vaccum of space. But there are other dangers to flying aboard a shuttle, very real dangers that Leonard never once considered before, but which are terrifying once they break loose on him.

Summary
In the wake of the kal-if-fee on Vulcan, Kirk is dead. When T’Pau tells Spock to live long and prosper, he knows he shall do neither. This is a story about men who love each other, and the lengths they will go to for one another.
-
Foolish, he thinks. I have been a fool.How he had wanted so desperately to prove his Vulcan side. How all his life it had felt like a performance, and yet, to be finally subject to the most Vulcan thing of all destroyed him. The stripping of logic. All sense torn from him. His carefully constructed barriers had collapsed like a flimsy house of cards. To be granted his wish this way was a type of mockery. How he had wanted to be fully Vulcan. To prove that the blood which runs through his veins was not so human.
How wanting had been better than having.

Summary
“Bones, what are you doing here so early–”
“I’m stuck in a time loop,” Bones says, cutting Jim off. He opens the cupboard near Jim’s table and makes a face at its lack of contents. “And before you ask, yes, you’ve been aware of this the past few loops. No, I haven’t figured out how to break it yet.” Bones pauses and opens another door in Jim’s cupboard and scowls. “What did you do with all your liquor?”
Jim blinks, his brain trying to process everything Bones just told him.
OR
Bones is stuck in a time loop. Jim isn't. He relearns this everyday.

Summary
“Skip to the point, Jim. The sooner you spit it out, the sooner I can refuse and get back to work.”
“It’s really no big deal,” Jim says as the door slides closed behind them. “I just need you to come down to Hearth with us…as my husband.”
The Enterprise has been sent to negotiate reaccession to the Federation with an isolationist religious group known as the Kindred. While there, Jim notices that some of the children seem to be gravely ill. The problem is, the Kindred practice faith healing and refuse to allow a doctor to be brought in. So Jim does what he does best: he improvises.

Summary
The announcement doesn’t last long, and Leonard only catches a bit of what Spock’s saying – enough to gather that things apparently went sideways down on Xulos and the away team has been beamed back ahead of schedule.
For the sake of his already anxious patient, Leonard resists the urge to roll his eyes. When do things not go sideways on planets starting with an X, that’s what he wants to know.
When a diplomatic mission goes to hell on some stormy backwater of a non-Federation planet, Leonard is left searching for answers.

Someone has to teach Jim Kirk how to take care of himself, ‘cause he sure as hell isn’t picking it up on his own.
Snippet:
“You don’t have an epichip, and you’re allergic to,” McCoy’s eyes go back to the screen, “a zillion things? How are you even still alive?”Jim blinked a few times, and muttered something under his breath.
McCoy scowled. “I could be wrong, but it almost sounded like you said ‘liberated medical supplies.'”

Summary
James Tiberius Kirk - friend, brother, lover - has one great and glorious ambition: to captain a starship. It is the defining passion of his life for which he has sacrificed every relationship he once held dear.
S'chn T'gai Spock left his life behind on Vulcan to join Starfleet, against the wishes of his family. Ostracised by his people, he has forged his path amongst alien strangers, unfamiliar with and resentful of his cool, logical ways.
When the USS Enterprise loses her Captain, they are thrown together as Starfleet's newest command team. These very different men begin a relationship that will define their lives, shape their destinies, and reveal the lengths that each will go to for friendship. And for love.
A novel-length retelling of original Star Trek canon through the lens of one of the greatest relationships ever committed to film. Using missing scenes, episode tags, and original story-telling. Ultimately a Generations fix-it.
