Star Trek 2009: Return of the Fic Recs

I'm reading "Killing Time" and holy shit, you guys, this is hella slashy. There's the fact that Kirk and Spock have an 'open door' policy regarding each other's minds (in fact, Spock wonders if the reason that he's having the same dreams as Jim is because he might be picking them up). ( more )

Just finished "Dagger of the Mind" in my TOS rewatch (note: started with "Where No Man Has Gone Before" because it is so obviously before the rest: Gary's there, no Uhura, Sulu in the wrong color uniform, and then went through the rest in disc order, something discovered to be a bit of a mistake for the two episodes filmed next, as Uhura was there, but in gold! (she looks much better in red, btw). Also, have found women in pants in this version as well. It would appear to be fully optional both in TOS and in XI). We've just gotten into the third disc and have already run across so many sci-fi tropes. I wonder which TOS invented and which it merely adapted to its purposes (did anything do 'fuck or die' before ST?).

XI recs: ( 14 recs; still spoilers for new movie )
