Wow... thank you for that. I didn't know people even remembered that I'd written this. Some fics... they're just THERE, and you have to write them, even if it hurts. I re-read the fic just now, and I guess I'm not even immune to it, too. I just see McCoy sitting out there on a slight ridge of a grassy field, on a moonless night, looking up at the stars, feeling this loss that he can't even comprehend. And he can't let Jim go, not completely, so he's talking to Jim aloud in the middle of the night, before leaving Jim's insignia on the ground and walking away. Oh, my boys.
Yeah, I'm kinda addicted to Kirk and McCoy in the reboot as characters. I haven't decided if I like reboot!Spock yet.
Just to let you know, I'm busy working on the sequel to AAtKM now. It'll be posted later this year as a Big Bang entry. There's a prequel in the works, too. And if you can't persuade your husband to give it fanfic a try, no worries. But just remind him that even the published Star Trek novels are really nothing more than fanfiction, and several of the published authors started as fanfic writers. :D
