I liked this. The beginning was a little too ... clinical ... isn't the right word, maybe expository. However, there were a lot of great bits in it. I liked the way that Spock does explore his feelings and his thoughts in relation to Kirk, and it seems very Spock of him to do it in such a straight forward and obvious fashion. Buried in with the prose were really shiny bits of insight that are perfectly representative of Spock and Kirk and their relationship. I REALLY loved those.
Not to mention requiring that the most sensitive part of one's anatomy double as one's primary interface with controls, menial tasks, and other beings. It was both intriguing and horrifying at once.
explaining to Jim that one's privates were not in fact meant to be the center of one's public life would most likely have been met with incomprehension.
And to be perfectly fair, Jim's tight trousers and periodic shirtless parades from the gym to his quarters benefited crew morale in eminently logical ways.
“Love you,” he murmured against Spock's ear, curled in his warm Human way around him.
