Kirk/McCoy Recs
everything you had and what was left after that by ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) re_white (NC-17)
Summary: Jim learns fast that very few people get off on having a partner who can't.
The prompt for this fic is that due to psychological trauma, Jim is unable to orgasm, so... appropriate warnings here! Having said that, this fic is achingly beautiful and not something I was expecting to enjoy at ALL, but I definitely did.
Something Like a Phenomenon by azephirin (girl!Kirk/McCoy, NC-17)
Summary: What it all comes down to is: They're just drunk enough.
Uh, I have a weak spot for girl!Kirk/McCoy fics. This one was hot.
Rapture by shinychimera (also Kirk/OCs, NC-17)
Summary: Aliens whammy Kirk, wiping his memory, to make him think that he is a acolyte in their temple - think "holy brothel". Once Jim is rescued, Bones is the one who has to deal with Jim trying to bring him to the faith with his body, while trying to restore Jim's memories.
Warning: Consent/dubcon issues due to the whammy. Please use appropriate caution. Warnings aside, this story is really beautiful. shinychimera's storytelling really taps into something visceral and powerful. Jim's POV through this is frightening and engaging.
Cowboys Lost at Sea by ayalesca (NC-17)
Summary: Jim and McCoy are trapped, together and alone, in a strange world made up of their memories and desires. In a world where almost anything they want comes into existence, there is no hiding from their desires, each other, or themselves.
This is the first of the ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) startrekbigbang's I've read, and I loved it. (I knew I would because it's by Aya and she always blows me away.) This story was almost like poetry. It had this really amazing cadence that just sucked you in and made you feel like you were part of their dream-like world. It was haunting and lovely and perfect.
Asymmetry by canis_takahari (R)
Summary: Leonard McCoy has already been through the dorm room politics, the awkward drunken nights, the pain and fear and grief; he didn’t expect to have to start his life over again, but Jim Kirk is making sure he does it right this time.
Everyone has to read this story. EVERYONE. I started my evangelizing on this story last night after I finished it, immediately sending it to everyone I was IMing with. I cannot begin to put into words the way this story made me feel when I was reading it. It's absolutely hilarious, breathtaking, emotional (without being overwrought), intense, playful, and basically might as well be canon as far as I'm concerned. Her Jim and Bones are perfect in every way (mostly because she remembers to include their flaws) and her dialogue is enviable. (I'm serious, last night I was talking to silverlining_99 and I was like, "UGH, HER DIALOGUE IS SO GOOD, IT MAKES ME WANT TO STAB HER WITH JEALOUSY!" Yes, that is the measure of how amazing a writer you are... when other writers are green with envy over how awesome you are.) Okay, I think I'm done gushing. Maybe. OMG READ THIS STORY. Alright, now I'm done.
Step Into Liquid by atomicskull (R)
Summary: This - stepping into liquid, leaving land, when the dawn is just breaking - is what matters in life, especially if you have someone to share the waves with.
The reigning queen of AUs is still going strong with this story. It's a surfer AU, y'all. What I really love about atomicskull's AUs is how she still manages to bring in who they are from canon and slip them seamlessly into these other worlds. I am not the first person to say this about her AUs, either, mostly because it's true. Also, the visuals in this story are very pretty. SUNSHIIIIIINE. (You'll understand when you read it.)
The Old Space-Time Song and Dance by andrealyn (PG-13)
Summary: Captain Kirk's used to getting his way. This time it involves time travel and possibly bending the space-time continuum.
You ever read those stories where just the IDEA of the story makes something tighten in your chest? Yeah, this is one of those. I don't want to go into too much detail because I don't want to ruin it, but it's really a wonderful read. HEARTS IN MY EYES FOR THESE TWO, OKAY?
Other Recs
See One, Do One, Teach One by smutjunkie (Chris/Karl/Kirk/McCoy/OFC, NC-17)
Summary: …Bahaha. Written for [a] prompt at Sinfest v4
Um. I have no excuse for this fic. It's just really, really dirty porn. This fic is so porny it made ME blush. Y'all, I once talked about my ~feelings~ about porn on a podcast. Porn doesn't make me blush. THIS DID.
Impulsive by inell (Karl/Chris, Adult)
Summary: This is probably a big mistake.
I very rarely find Chris/Karl fic that I really enjoy. This is one of those rare finds.
he's as damned as he seems by pathstotread (Chapel/McCoy, PG-13)
Summary: "'Chapel,' he says, his voice remarkably steady for someone who's probably well on his way to drinking himself into a coma."
This is short (900 words) but packs a really great emotional punch. Jim is wonderful in this as well and I LOVE Carrie's Bones. Christine is wonderful, as usual.
