Glad to see you back! How was Greece? San Francisco was spectacular. I've got pictures, if you'd like to see. :)
And yeah, I really REALLY wish we'd seen more of the development of Kirk and McCoy's friendship (read: romance) during their cadet years, especially early on.
No problem with weaknesses for snarky men! And deeply wounded and broken, too! I like them that way. :D
I actually liked this line most: Jim couldn't help but think of a man dying in the desert who can't believe that the oasis isn't a mirage. I just got a mental image of McCoy's face at that scene, and I saw him looking just like that. *huggles him* My poor, broken boys.
So... would you be willing to beta some of the upcoming stuff I'm working on? :D
Oh, and because I can't resist, here's at least a couple of pictures.
1. Me and my beloved bridge. I have a strange obsession with the Golden Gate Bridge. Dunno why, but I love it:
2. Me at the Presidio, which is the future site of Starfleet Academy. I found this sign at the west end of the Presidio:
And this sign at the other end of the field:
Between the sentiments on the two signs... I think that place really is the perfect location for something like Starfleet Academy. I got a bit wibbly about it.
(BTW, please forgive the hair - was very windy there.)
3. I found this set of walking paths through a thick, beautiful wooded grove, between the Bridge and the Presidio. I imagine Kirk and Bones taking a meaningful sort of walk-and-talk sort of thing there in an upcoming fic I'll be writing. You should have seen the grove further down the path. It was gorgeous.
