i have committed star trek fic (eeeppp)

[dahlia_moon]

So, yeah. I had written this way before I went to see Star Trek Into Darkness (like a day before, I think it was?) so it's not STID fic, but based on the first rebooted movie; only tonight I finally managed to proof-read it. The interesting thing, for me personally, is that it's in Spock's p.o.v. mostly, which is shocking because a. never would I have entertained I'd write anything Star Trek-ish (it's a wonderful fandom sandbox to play in, but so intimidating, quite like comics fandom, because there is this whole history behind it, and it's a cultural movement, and GUH! where would one even start? Which is why nu!Star Trek is so hopeful) and b. even if I were hypothetically to have entertained the idea in the first place, I wouldn't have pictured Spock to be my fandom ice breaker as it were (well...Kirk/Spock, but more Spock than the ship because, alas, the 'ship is practically nonexistent in this fic).

Also, another interesting thing is Kirk here says he's fine a lot, and in Star Trek Into Darkness, I noticed he says he's fine too. This was purely coincidental, and I don't believe him in either case.
