Oh man! This was really intense...and I have to admit, so not my cuppa. I skimmed part 2 because if there is one thing I cannot handle, it's torture.
I think at some level I knew Bones was doing this, but I still couldn't read it. It was riveting and intense and very well written, but not for me.
Part 3, I read avidly. I think I understand the need for someone like Jim to have this level of physical and psychological torture; I think I understand his understanding of it.
And I'm glad you interjected Bones's discomfort. Yeah, THAT I understand, the fact that he may crash just as hard as Jim in the fallout.

Still, an excellent look into Jim Kirk's psyche.
