emnorth.livejournal.comI'm afraid I don't remember a ton of specifics--it's been ages since I read the fic--but I think it was gen. Kirk somehow manages to piss off a priestess or witch, who puts a spell on him that gets rid of various "bad" qualities of his, like his sex drive, etc. At first the Enterprise crew is thrilled because Kirk's suddenly polite, helpful, focused on his work--all the things they always say they want him to be. But then it starts getting aggravating...like when a Kirk who is no longer distracted by horndog thoughts turns out to be better at their jobs than most of them. And when a crisis hits, it turns out that his supposedly bad qualities are what make him such a good problem solver and multitasker and that without them, he's useless in make-or-break situations, so they have to find a way to break the curse.
Please, someone say they remember this? I'm going crazy trying to find it! Thanks!!
