Why this must be read: The ultimate in McCoy/Chapel Reboot fics, I consider these two stories to be a necessary primer for anyone who wants to know the story of how McCoy and Chapel met in the Academy. The first story is from Chapel's point of view, the second from McCoy's, and between the two they cover their meeting at the Academy, the events of the movie, and the immediate fallout after the credits. With pitch perfect characterisations, dialogue and writing, and scenes that run the gamut from funny to sexy to sweet to angsty, the "Jim Kirk" fics are a must-read for any fans of McCoy/Chapel.
Excerpt:
She meets him officially on the first day of Tactical Analysis their third year; she sits next to him on purpose. She knows who he is - where he comes from, where he lives, which shifts he works at SF General now that her license has come through. Of course, she knows pretty much the same things about every other medical cadet, too.
Christine Chapel is nothing if not observant.
She doesn't talk to him, not at first, not while she's punching her identification code into her console and confirming her intent to sit for the course. "Do you ever wonder," she finally asks absently, "what you'd do if every single one of them keeled over at once?"
"Be tempted to think the galaxy is abruptly a much safer place," he mutters. He casts her a sidelong glance, then a closer look. "Help me out, here. I know you from somewhere."
"I live six doors down from you," she tells him dryly. "And yesterday? That was *my* hand you shoved into a chest cavity to staunch a bleed in that Bolian you were operating on."
He grimaces. "Well...shit."
