Why this must be read:
Because not only is it a believable, engaging and original take on the start of Spock and Uhura’s relationship (unlike the majority of ‘how they got together’ fics, it starts from a place of mutual antipathy), but it’s also a thought-out exploration of culture in the Trek universe, the (occasionally humorous) misunderstandings that can arise, and ways that gap can be bridged. Bonus for the overall portrayal of life in the Academy, and the spot-on characterizations of various other canon characters that pop up.

I've read this recently, so I just wanted to second his rec. Very enjoyable story.

WOW. Just....wow. One of the things that got me in the movie was how Uhura was always quick to sashay her butt off the bridge anytime she felt the need to console Spock instead of staying at her station, but all that was forgotten when I read this. What an amazing story! Thanks so much for sharing it.

Well, to be fair, Spock was having the mother of all Bad Days.

LOL. You do have a point.

Wow, thanks so much for the rec! I really appreciate it, and I'm glad you enjoyed the story too! :)

Thank you for the wonderful story (and I feel extra-guilty for not reviewing when I read it. In my defence, it was at 4AM).
