FIC REC: Star Trek Gen Recs II
Well, I obviously had more. Actually, I have twenty-seven more fics I want to rec but with only one hand to type, the rest come in chunks. I'm not posting them by order of like, just simply my bookmarks are that disorganized.
I've updated the main list, marking those that are new, but also included them under the cut.
And if you have gen fics you want to rec, by all means: share.

Rating: PG
Word Count: 1400
Summary: Spock Prime endures many thoughts.

Reader Notes: I might be cheating by listing every single one ofkodiak_bear's fics here but darn it, they're just that good. This one in particular gives us a wonderful glimpse into Spock Prime. Abrams did a brilliant move by bringing Spock Prime (Leonard Nimoy) but we sadly never got more than a glance into his own POV. It is a joyful reunion we see but we never fully realize the cost of such reunion. You get that here in this story. You get that clean, straight lined thought so characteristically Spock, tinged with bittersweet as the cost sinks in and yet despite it all, kodiak_bear gives us hope in the end. Very hard to manage, yet it reads so effortlessly here. Darn her. LOL.
Title: A New Day NEW
Author:kodiak_bear
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 6700
Summary: After Jim tells Bones to 'Buckle Up', where'd they go first? This is that mission.
Link: http://kodiak-bear.livejournal.com/174709.html
Reader Notes: Before the movie went to credits, we see our Enterprise is set to go off, presumably to a mission.kodiak_bear gives us that mission. If we ever wished the movie went on to TV, in nice shiny 42 minutes (gone are the days of 52 minutes) weekly adventures, guess what? kodiak_bear has done it here. I can list the myriad of emotions you go through reading the first mission, but that would be like spoilers. And I don't do spoilers. LOL. Just go read. It's the kind of classic Trek you wished the movie continued on to and kodiak_bear hasn't disappoint us yet. My only regret was there wasn't more fic of hers for me to rec.
Title: James and the Giant Ship NEW
Author:blcwriter
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 4350
Summary: Starfleet observes the Kelvin disaster; how does Jim Kirk observe his birthday?

Reader Notes: It blows my mind that I hadn't included this in my first round of recs. Oddly enough, as I was making this list, I was frantically passing around this rec to my friends. Simply put, the writer has a brilliant sense of how to sucker punch the reader in the story. You react as the characters react and it's freaking wonderful. It's angsty, it's heartbreaking but in the end,blcwriter gathers up the emotional pieces and makes it all better in the end with a massive serving of comfort that leaves both characters and readers warm and fuzzy inside.
Like the fic you read here? Want more? Share feedback with the writers then, darn it. Feedback a writer and you may feed a muse!
Disclaimer: All recs represented here on this post are the expressed opinion of said poster and of no one else no matter what the little voices in my head says. I was neither coerced, bribed, mind melded, or cloned into making this rec. Read accordingly. Side effects may include dry mouth, dry eye, bleary eye, gaping eye, lost weekends, timey wimey moments, periods of squee, potato chip cravings (that would be bad), oreo cravings (but that's not bad), skipped meals (that would be really bad) and the occasional urge to stay glued onto your seat to read one more fic. Do not operate heavy machinery. Do not run with scissors.
