Lost fic help!

[turynn.livejournal.com]

I'm looking for a fic that I never got to read entirely and that I can barely remember... as I recall, Spock is on a (swampy? murkey? rain foresty?) planet with some of the crew (I believe Kirk and Bones aren't with him, only random crew members... but I could be wrong). They're trudging though this... planet... and something about the atmosphere is detrimental to Spock's Vulcan physiology/lungs and he starts to go through the beginning stages of developing a pneumonia-like illness..

That's about as far as I got! If I remember correctly, it was quite a long, plotty, TOS-based fic. I know my description sucks but hopefully someone will know what I'm talking about! Thanks so much!

ETA: Ok, I found it! Thanks for the help!

Dancing fics, bitte.

[cockrobinisdead.livejournal.com]

Hello!

I've just really, really been craving fanfiction where Kirk is really good at dancing and gets to shake it-shake it-shake it like he's losing his mind.
It can be any kind of dancing -- sexy, slow, ballroom, ballet, lap/erotic... I don't mind, all I know is I want to read that Kirk has got the moves.

they can be general or slash (please)
I know I've read one or two one-shots where Kirk and Spock dance at a club -- and I blame them for this ceaseless craving *YAY!*

but yep:
Kirk dancing really frackin' well.
preferably somebody watching (voyeur.kink, you say? no... no not at all >_>)
sexy-sex or no sexy-sex
any universe

um... and now that it's randomly wormed its way into my mind (just this very moment) --- if there are Spock dancing fics out there, I suppose I'd like those too. I don't know if such creatures exist... but that won't stop me from dreaming.

thank you all for your recs.

Tarsus IV fics?

[nightshadow-t2.livejournal.com]

Heyla,
  I've read a couple of fics that mention Tarsus IV and I was hoping for some recs of stories that have Jim dealing with the results of that experience. Either universe is fin. I like both the Orig and Reboot. I adore slash, but I don't mind a good Gen either. Just no het as the main permanent pairing, please? I don't mind het as a minor pairing or one that doesn't last for the whole fic and then it ends up being slash. Kirk/Spock is always good. Kirk/McCoy is good too. Trios are good. I just mainly want some really nice Hurt/comfort fics and Tarsus IV seems like a good instigator. Though I'll take H/C recs too!

And since I only discovered this fandom a week ago, chances are whatever you name I haven't read. :)

Thank you all in advance!

Spock takes hits for the Captain

[turynn.livejournal.com]

So I just rewatched "The Apple" and got all giddy when Spock pushed Kirk out of the way and jumped in front of the poisonous flower-dart-things (oh, TOS, how I love thee) to take the hit himself rather than having them hit Kirk. When Spock awoke Kirk was all pissy-with-worry at him but quietly mumbled his thanks after the reprimand. eeeee <3.

So, I'm looking for any and all fic (or if there's a ST novel you know of that contains a situation like this, feel free to let me know! I've only read a few so far) in which Spock takes a hit/punishment/etc in place of Kirk, either directly in front of Kirk or in a kind of behind-his-back-doesn't-realize-til-it's-too-late way a la Wrath of Khan and Kirk gets all upset/worried/mad.

Prefer no character death (unless it's a redshirt of course, that's ok :)) and no pure-angst fics though. TOS or Reboot, I'm not picky :)!

Thank you!!
