The Hounds of Morrigan by
hounds_morrigan
Pairing: Uhura/Kirk/Spock
Rating: So NC-17 it isn't funny
Summary: Radical au from this prompt. An alternate world without a federation. Nyota Uhura is a scary BAMF with an even more terrifying matched set of hunting hounds on her leash.
Warnings: Slavery, non-con, d/s without the safeguards. Fucked up, dirty bad wrong shit.
I'll say again, I LOVED this story. It's long- multiple parts, a link to the next part is included at the end of each section. It is a completed fic but things are open for more in this universe. I really, really hope there is more. It's fantastic. Not for every one- dark, dark, dark- but if that's your thing, this is dead on the money.

Watched this originally because of a link on
july_july_july's LJ. I am in love with this video. I went to the creator's site to check it out and he has a very interesting post about the creation and intention of this vid. No spoilers for the the vid but here's the link to his site so you can dig into his work.
As always, I would LOVE to discuss this with all of you out there. There is so much here to dig into- please share and we can dish!

STAR TREK: ABRIDGED VERSION by

A clip to whet your whistle:
Back At The Ranch
[Young!Kirk's turned into Chris Pine, and is being a suave playa at some bar in the middle of nowhere. The females in the audience weep.]
KIRK: Great legs, what time do they open?
UHURA: Get bent, Farmboy.
THe Spock stuff is awesome as well.
Go. Read. Comment. Share the love.

Apparently Jim Kirk dresses to the left, as I have just learned from "The Trouble with Tribbles."
That episode is also apparently Jim Kirk's Terrible, Horrible, No Good Very Bad Day.
Listening to him telling Scotty that "No, this isn't off the record!" is hilarious, as is the look on his face when Scotty tells him that they wouldn't start a fight to defend Kirk's honor but they sure as hell would to defend The Enterprise's. :)
I haven't watched TOS is a long time and, of course, have been inspired to do so. Not what I remembered- weirder and way better. To be clear, I ADORED the oriyginal series. But I don't think I really understood it- I was very young when I first saw it. Now that I have adult eyes, it is a very different animal.
For any Trek fans with Netflix, you can instantly watch the entire first season there for free. The imdb has all three seasons but they apparently don't buffer their video and it kind of sucks but, you know, you get tribbles and pon farr and all that good stuff.

I would really like someone to make a Star Trek vid to the White Stripes' "We Are Going To Be Friends". If only I had the talent to make my own. Or the equipment.
Seriously, you guys! This is the perfect song! Someone just needs to, you know, make the vid. Hee.

OH. MY. GOD.
This is just incredible. The Kirk voice is... to DIE for. I just... READ IT.

Opening line of the fic:
'Dear Ambassador Spock,' Jim writes, 'The new Spock thinks I am a total asshole and that sucks.'
I just... *dies*
Reboot fic, mind-meld fic... it's got it all and the voice this writer has is just spot on. Really, REALLY funny. And in the end, a surprisingly sweet move on Kirk's part- I think I kind of love him. Like, a LOT.
And also, you know, SPOCK.
The sequel which is equally amazing (possibly more so):

This is such a cool vid. The opening credits of Magnum, P.I. but Star Wars style. It's a really great edit, really creative and FUN.

Go. Read. Now. Star Trek fic, re-boot 'verse. AU, 'cause McCoy is a girl. Seriously, this is awesome. Funny and hot and sweet and both McCoy and Kirk are DEAD ON.
I am PRAYING that there is more coming in this verse, although I am afraid that it's a one-off fic. Boo.
Also, I need Trek icons that aren't angry or swearing. Hmmm....
