Well written Broken!Jim

Hi! Was wondering if you could help me find fics with broken Jim. I'm not necessarily looking for fics where Jim is feminized (in fact if that can be avoided that would be great)- but definitely broken or angsting. I've read fics by [livejournal.com profile] vaingirlfic  and [livejournal.com profile] ninhursag  or [livejournal.com profile] viggorlijah  's 5 times fic and they are my favorite. I'm ok with angst/humour too. I'd prefer the reboot verse but I'm ok with TOS too. Same with the coupleds- I'd prefer Spock/Jim but any other pairings (even het ones) or gen fics are awesome too.

Well what comes to mind are Deja Vu (http://d8rkmessngr.livejournal.com/65817.html?format=light) by [livejournal.com profile] d8rkmessngr. Sorry, it's Kirk/McCoy (all of her stuff is) but I really enjoy it…lots of hurt/comfort and Kirk angsting. Here's the master list (http://d8rkmessngr.livejournal.com/49490.html). Make SURE you read the warnings for all of 'em though…

If you want an awesome Spock/Kirk with some angsty, broken Jim, read The Sum of Its Parts (http://jbmcdragon.livejournal.com/518610.html), by [livejournal.com profile] jbmcdragon, which is probably one of my favorite Star Trek stories ever. It's multi-chapter and it's spectacular.

Hopefully these fit with what you're looking for……

I second anything by [livejournal.com profile] d8rkmessngr. I was just about to say the same thing.

I have a zillion things I could rec but I'll limit myself. Let's see All The Roads We Have to Walk Are Winding by 1297 (http://1297.livejournal.com/18976.html)

Um..I think I'll make this easier and just link you to my Angst tab on Delicious. All mine will be Kirk/McCoy to let you know.

All the King´s Men by mijan: http://mijan.bravehost.com/andallthekingsmen.htm

It´s gen / Jim/Bones pre-slash and it´s brilliant.

In addition to the above, there's the Five Times James Kirk Almost Died by Angelbaby1 on ff.net that I particularly adore. I would also suggest classics_geek's series of fics, as well as the series by waldorf and oh! re_white also writes a great broken Jim (not in series) along with anything by 1297. Also "what chain reaction" by walksbyherself. Um ... there's lots. There's all the Tarsus-focused fics as well ... but that should get you started?

Inertia (found here http://cards-slash.livejournal.com/402862.html ) by [livejournal.com profile] cards_slash is amazing.

Do you mind S/U/K?

vaingirlfic wrote a three part series that has an excellent Jim characterization. READ the warnings at the top first.

'Letters and Papers' which is the prequel (though as far as I can tell was written secound as back story).

'Diplomatic Efforts'

I hope you don't mind a little self-pimping. I've written two long fics which feature broken!Jim:
