Summary: Spoilers for Minimal Loss 4X3, takes place between the last two scenes. This is the perfect follow-up to the episode. It’s about the team, it’s about Prentiss as she copes with the aftermath of the episode and, best of all, it’s about Rossi and Prentiss getting their act together. I love this story.
The Boundaries of Objectivity
Summary: In the aftermath, the President of the Federation has to deal with the fallout. TWW fusion. Because we all knew it was going to happen… I can absolutely move into this universe.
This Is What’s Next
“Braden knew all the stories. How his mom got pregnant right after high school, when she’d been going to go to the Academy, and then she didn’t go but she doesn’t regret it. He believed that, because they were all pretty happy, and he was a kid at the time and didn’t realise just how different she’d meant her life to be. He believed it after that, too, but in a different way.”
This story lists pairings but it’s not really about that. It’s really about one possible impact of Kirk’s wild youth from the POV of the son he doesn’t know. This is quite good and very unique among Trek reboot fic I’ve read.
Full Circle

Summary: Sometimes a new life happens whether you seek it or not. This fic is set post-film and it’s a compelling look at the developing bond between Sarek and Winona Kirk. The dynamic is great and I particularly love the portrayal of Winona Kirk. Flora also find an unexpected, but perfectly placed, spot for Gaila in this fic. I doubt many people have considered this pairing but the fic is worth your time.
Common Bond

Summary: Prentiss and Rossi are looking forward to a night alone together. But things seldom work out as planned. Oh, this is wonderful. Established relationship but new enough that there’s still the element of discovery. Rossi and Prentiss are pitch perfect and their “suprise guest” is perfectly played.
Dressed for Dinner

Rossi and Prentiss take an undercover op that tests the boundaries of their relationship. I wanted to reach out and hug Rossi through the first two parts of this fic. Prentiss, too.
Against Her Better Judgment
Summary: It’s common knowledge that Jim Kirk is a slut. Then again, knowledge and practical application are two very different things. A few months into their marriage, Jim and Bones have to figure out how to transition from one to the other. Sequel to The One With The Romulan Ale. (Part of the Fools Rush In series which, I expect may become something more than these two stories.)
The One With the Slut Thing

Summary: What better way to celebrate the end of your first year at the Starfleet Academy than with a trip to Las Vegas? Lose some money, get a little drunk, get a little impulsive. Too bad what happens there doesnt always stay there. A fun story but also surprisingly sweet. Followed by The One With the Slut Thing. (Part of the Fools Rush In series which, I expect may become something more than these two stories.)
The One With the Romulan Ale

Summary: The five times Jim Kirk Said I love you without actually saying the words, and the one time he actually said it. This story is a look at the people who matter to Kirk and it’s simply the sweetest. I literally said, “Awwwww,” out loud when I finished.
5 Times Kirk Didn’t Spit It Out and One Time He Did

Summary: Kirk turned tricks in his days before the academy and now his past is catching up with him. This story features a decliciously possessive Spock.
