Notes: A Kirk/McCoy fic this time. Apparently my brain thinks Captain Kirk really, really is the world's biggest flirt. Based on the moment that made my slashgoggles start flashing red exclamation marks at me - Bones and Spock's argument on the bridge re: marooning Kirk. Particularly Bones's lovely use of animal imagery. OH THE SNIGGERING I HAD TO HURRIEDLY CHOKE DOWN IN THE THEATRE. Anyway, dedicated to Bridget, with much love.



It was a brand-new day on an almost brand-new Enterprise, and her pretty-much brand-new captain had just heard some veeeeery interesting talk from Chekhov and Sulu. So interesting, in fact, that he thought he'd better do a little fact-finding mission before leaving spacedock. He headed, whistling cheerfully, to a certain crew-member's suite. He didn't bother to knock. This particular door was never closed to him.

'Rumour has it you referred to me as a stallion,' said Kirk as the door closed behind him. Bones looked up.

'Aren't you supposed to knock before entering a crew-member's private quarters?'

'Probably. Anyway, what's this you told Spock about me being a stallion? I thought doctors weren't supposed to kiss and tell.'

'That's ladies. Doctors take the Hippocratic Oath. There's a difference.' Bones stood up and folded his arms. 'Anyway, Jim, I wouldn't get too overexcited; Spock said you had to be broken before you could be of any use.'

'Is that a fact?'

'It is.'

'He was your captain at the time, Bones, you ever think you oughtta've carried out that order?' The look Kirk shot Bones was pure mischief with a side of horny - the look he usually shot him when they were alone, in fact. Bones was extremely familiar with it.

'Might've crossed my mind, Jim,' said the doctor blandly. 'Why?'

'Oh, no reason,' said Kirk airily, draping himself against the wall and inspecting the back of his hand nonchalantly. This pose had the side-effect, entirely calculated, of canting his hips out just so, and exposing a decent stretch of neck. Bones coughed.

'If there's no reason, then perhaps you'd better get yourself out of my quarters and onto the bridge.' And out of my sight before I start thinking I should take you up on more of your stupid suggestions. Because I don't think either of us want your first officer to get antsy about his captain's location again - I still can't look anyone from Security in the face...

'We've got two hours before we have to let our fine lady here off the leash, so c'mon, Bones, show a fellow some hospitality.' Kirk pushed off the wall and sauntered over to his Chief Medical Officer. He wrapped his arms around Bones' shoulders.

'I should be doing my rounds-'

'I need medical help,' Kirk said, tone of voice suddenly becoming serious. 'I've got an elevated heart-rate and some ... unusual swellings.' His eyelids fluttered and he licked his lips slowly. 'I think I need a thorough examination.'

Bones ducked out of the embrace. 'I prescribe some alone time with a box of tissues,' he said severely, but he couldn't help the grin. 'I don't have time to play doctor with you, Jim.' He turned around to grab his communicator in preparation for leaving for Medical when Kirk grabbed him from behind, palming his groin.

'I think it's catching,' the captain said hoarsely in Bones' ear. 'You're definitely showing symptoms.'

'Nothing that can't be dealt with,' Bones managed to say in a creditably steady voice, given Kirk had managed to wriggle two fingers down past the fastenings on his trousers.

'I agree completely.'

'Not by - nyargh.'

Kirk started steering them towards the bedroom. 'I'm calling a quarantine situation,' he said. 'Complete bedrest for all victims.' His breath was hot in Bones' ear.

'You're the captain, not a medical staff member. You can't call a quarantine.' Bones grunted as Kirk dropped him on the bed and started to work, enthusiastically, on removing his trousers.

'Very well, I order you to. Dammit Bones, stop talking,' Kirk complained.

'You're compromised by your illness, I can't take your orders,' said Bones, grabbing the wriggling captain and rolling them over. He straddled Kirk's hips and looked down, smirking.

'What?'

'So, you fancy yourself a stallion,' mused the doctor.

'You said it, not me,' said Kirk, attempting to roll his hips up against his lover. Bones leant down to brush his lips over Kirk's ear.

'I don't think I'm the man you want,' he whispered.

'Huh? Bones, what are you talking about?'

'Well Jim, y'see ... I'm a doctor, not a veterinarian.'

*snicker* Excellent punchline!

I still can't enjoy slash, but you're right that Kirk is a total flirt.

Kirk flirted with EVERYONE in that damn movie. Absolutely everyone. Practically even the guys who beat him up in the bar at the beginning.

"Cupcake."

I dare you to write him flirting with that guy. Just because said security guy obviously hates him :P

(Also, I'm ridiculously pleased with myself. I managed to hunt down good Trek pics and make icons in less than an hour. And avoid my essay.)

OooooOOH woman, don't tempt me. But I might. Maybe.

... I'm going to, aren't I ...

You should be proud! You made me SQUEE :D

I'm in the mood for tempting, even if it wouldn't be me who gets the full enjoyment out of it...

Oh, wait, here's an idea. How about a flirtfic that fails. Kirk's brain might explode from the shock. :P

I dunno ... that might be contravening a law of physics, or something ... but then I spose Uhura managed to get away (poor Kirk, he can't compete with Spock's moody broody Vulcan-Mr-Darcy-Heathcliffian-gloominess) ... so we'll seeeeeee. I definitely think I have more short fic in me for this fandom - probably nothing long, and definitely no tragic epic (thank CHRIST because I don't think I could handle another tragic epic - the Narnia one is bad enough and then I got mauled by a Merlin one the other day which I'm currently writing ...), but more short funny stuff I hope.

Short and funny is good. Once my Vizier fic is done I'm going to retire to a life of short fuzzies/funnies/fluffies/whateveries.

But... I don't think Spock equates to Mr Darcy. Not exactly.

Hmm. Now I'm forming in my mind a mental group of Those Who Managed To Escape Kirk. It's a very small group.

He's all dark and broody. To me, that says 'Mr Darcy', but then, I've never been able to bring myself to read Austen, so I'm probably over-simplifying there.

It's a very small group. I think there's actually a crew roster for who he's sleeping with. It's the only way to avoid fights.

(I did actually steal that concept from the illustrious authors of BagEnders, but we won't go there ...)

Crew roster! *laughs madly* Oo, I've had too much chocolate tonight.

Austen's writing isn't as great as it's made out to be, I think. I couldn't get into it until after I'd seen the Keira Knightly movie and had a visual setting in my head, but even then... It's just too different a time. *shrugs* It's good, certainly, but just not going to make my favourites list.

The story that gave me the idea. Not smutty, very silly, makes me snort beverages out my nose. Fandom is 'Enterprise', the prequel Star Trek series, but I've never seen it and still find the fic hilarious. Y'know, just in case you're interested and still trying to procrastinate.

I just can't bring myself to care about her characters. I cannot get into their heads, I cannot understand their motivations. I have no problem with acknowledging that it is Great Literature And I Am Not Worthy, provided that no-one ever expects me to try to read it ever again.

Indeed - what is it about an old book that makes people think it has to be brilliant? The literature that survives the test of time is that which the masses like best - what's popular. Besides that fact that it's not necessarily the best (I SHUDDER to think what our decendents will think if "Scary Movie" makes it that long), half of the worth of such stories depends on the existing social setting of the time. It doesn't work across decades, let alone centuries.

Amen to THAT.

*thinks about some of the books that are currently selling out and shudders at the thought that they could come to be the next generation's historical literature stuff*

*sniggers madly* 'You're compromised by your illness, I can't take your orders' Hee! The last line was perfect too. <3
Dr. McCoy is obviously possessed of the Tricorder of Snark, artifact (Divine providence, Chaotic Good): adds +3 to saving throws against intimidation/seduction checks.

Yes, I just made that up on the spot. Yes, I am an enormous geek and a role-player.

I like the Kirk/McCoy pairing for this movie, because the one will never let himself be bulldozed by the other, and they're both quite bulldozing personalities in their own way. However this makes them a challenge to get into bed together because if left to themselves they'll just snark until they fall asleep because NEITHER will let the other get the upper hand long enough to get said upper hand into anyone's trousers.

No, dear; I love you too much to kill you. But I freely offer a concrete wall against which both of us can bang our heads.
