    Summary

    Perhaps, like Jim, Spock felt an inability to connect. A barrier between himself and the rest of the galaxy. Different barriers, yes - the barrier of rank, the barrier of emotion - but barriers all the same. The impossibility of meeting someone, anyone, who might understand them well enough to…

    To what?

    All that, and Jim’s mind was fixed on one crucial point. When I feel friendship for you, I am ashamed.

    ***

    No longer infected, Jim and Spock are forced to discuss what came to light in the briefing room.

    Summary

    A character-driven story centred around the unfolding of an unlikely relationship between Erik and Éponine, with growth and healing for both of them. In this universe, it must be accepted that the Palais Garnier really existed in 1832. Otherwise, all attempt is made to weave elements of both The Phantom of the Opera (pulling mostly from Leroux) and Les Misérables (pulling almost exclusively from Hugo) in a way that meshes as well as possible with established canon.

    Summary

    “Should I call Bones?”

    “I would prefer that you did not.”

    Jim snorted at that - any man would. Spock could be on his deathbed and he’d still decline Bones’ tender mercies. He heaved himself upright, suppressing the urge to wince, and said, “He’ll be here soon anyway. Anything you want to mention before he does?”

    “Yes.” Spock, likewise, sat up. “I appear to be under some compulsion to speak the truth.”

    *

    There are consequences to using untested drugs to save your father's life, and Spock is about to meet them full throttle. Jim can only try and keep his too-honest Vulcan from insulting crew, ambassadors, admirals, and parents.

    It's a full-time job.

    Summary

    The longer James is gone, the more complicated things get. Still, at least they have John's natural grace in navigating emotionally difficult situations to see them through.
