Another Country Beckons by Rae Trail (PG)

Fandom: STAR TREK: THE ORIGINAL SERIES
Pairing: Kirk/Spock
Author on LJ: No
Author Website: http://members.fortunecity.com/stshymoon/raetrail/
Why this must be read:

It seems that everyone in the crew already assumes Kirk and Spock are lovers, and that they’re in a permanent relationship. This is news to Kirk – but once he hears about these rumors, he can’t stop thinking about possibilities. Then, a tense, charged confrontation with Spock leaves Kirk to wonder that if he can meet Spock’s needs, can Spock meet his?

"Bones... in your professional opinion, have I been flirting with my Exec?"

McCoy choked on his whiskey and pressed a hand over his mouth, eyes watering as he forced himself to swallow. "I almost spit that out, Jim! That kind of question, when a man's got a mouth full of whiskey... why, that's practically alcohol abuse! Who accused you of flirting?"

"Spock."

"Ah." McCoy sat back and cleared his throat. "Well, it's like this, Jim. Yes."

Well, I would have read it, but the site had the most nasty set of persistant pop up ads that I've ever encountered. It demanded that I download a totally unknown piece of software that would clean unwanted tracks off my hard disc (and heaven knows what else!). I actually had to close the browser to get rid of them.

I'm far happier letting my husband read my slash fic than I am to allow unknown and potentially virus-ridden software onto my computer.

Another reason why I adore Firefox and Adblock--I saw absolutely no popups whatsoever.

I really liked this story, thank you for reccing it. However, I felt the ending was a bit abrupt and a little unsatisfying. Does it have a sequel? I hope so. *g*

If you go to the author page, there's a 'morning after' fic which doesn't quite fit the same canon, but it's in similar style. I can't remember what it's called right now!

Also, I tried to send FB to the author (I loved the story that much!) but the address bounced. Anyone got a new one?
