Date: 2011-03-03 12:53 am (UTC)"Your First Time Should Be Special" by helenish - http://helenish.livejournal.com/163914.html
K/S first time fic. The funniest thing I read all year.
"Homecoming" by beedlebarg - http://lamasart.livejournal.com/9650.html
K/S. Kirk wakes up from an away mission with no memory of the last 20 years. He comes home to Spock and their family and tries to rebuild his life. Brilliant. (As beedlebarg deleted her journal, the link leads you to a page of links with zip files. Click on "K/S only" and download!)
"The House of Amanda" by screamlet - http://screamlet.livejournal.com/17688.html
Great gen story from Amanda's pov; the struggles of raising a Vulcan family. Beautiful.
"The Girl's Alright" by StarTrekFanWriter - http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6121270/1/
Spock/T'Pring, Spock/Uhura. I love T'Pring and think she's (mostly) horribly wronged in fandom. This writer shows us all the reasons T'Pring may have chosen to reject Spock without vilifying her.
"A Child of Two Worlds" by maxwrite (madeyemax). http://bloodywellwrite.dreamwidth.org/33657.html
Scotty/Uhura. A very sexy Scotty and a cool, fun, confident Uhura. And uh, Spock is kinda there too...don't want to give too much away. ;)
"Honorable Enemies" by zauzat - http://zauzat.livejournal.com/11067.html
Spock/McCoy. AU in which the Romulans are winning the war. Amazing writing & characterizations.
"The Opposite of Expediency" by ewinfic. http://ewinfic.livejournal.com/40154.html
Spock/McCoy. Spock has horrific scarring and goes to McCoy for treatment. There, he tells his story of abuse, and McCoy's heart goes out to him. Tender hurt/comfort.
"Abnormal Growth" by janice_lester. http://janice-lester.livejournal.com/66157.html
K/S/McCoy. Spock's penis is growing, and Kirk and McCoy are concerned. It's hilarious, then beautiful and sensitive and sharply-observed. The characterizations of Spock and McCoy are spectacular.
"Things That Never Happened: Blue" by nemo the everbeing. http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2464440/1/Things_that_Never_Happened_I_Blue
Spock/McCoy. Post-apocalyptic AU with Spock and McCoy making their weary way through a destroyed Earth. Warning: there's pretty much no sex in this one. But it's tragically poetic.
Whatever a Moon Has Always Meant by hollycomb - http://hollycomb.livejournal.com/189522.html
Sulu/Chekov/Kirk. This story has everything: angst, suspected character death, characterizations that make you think in new ways about the characters you've come to love, and hot sex. Although everything hollycomb writes is wonderful, this was my favorite of the whole year.

- Through Chekov's Eyes :: In which Mr. Spock hates Chekov and terrorizes the crew, Captain Kirk has the best poker face on the ship, Chekov never means to eavesdrop, Uhura gets some curves, Kirk gets cock-blocked, Spock gets off, McCoy pulls rank, Spock pulls Kirk's pigtails, and love sucks.
- Poison :: Before Kirk entered his life, Spock had never understood the meaning of the human phrase "thinking with one's dick." Now, much to his dismay and disgust, he has the full knowledge of its meaning. Jim Kirk is a poison. (Or, How Spock's Penis Ruined His Perfectly Logical Life)
- Once Upon a Time :: In a universe with no Federation, where First Contact never happened, Jim Kirk is your average popular guy. On Christmas Eve, thanks to a series of strange events, Jim finds himself in a parallel universe where the Milky Way is under the control of an alien race and ends up as a servant in the residence of the Royal House of Vulcan. As he starts adapting to his new life, Jim's curiosity fucks everything up—but hey, Vulcans shouldn't have told him that he isn't allowed to enter this wing of the palace; Jim has never been good at following rules.
- Eye of the Storm :: Three months into their five-year mission, Spock is still with Uhura, and Spock and Jim are at each other's throats when the Enterprise is sent to investigate another lightning storm in space. They encounter a Vulcan ship, commanded by Captain Spock and his very illogical First Officer Jim Kirk who, to everyone's shock, are happily married and in love with each other. The other Kirk disapproves of the fact that his counterpart is letting Uhura have what should be 'rightfully his' and is determined to 'set things right,' but the problem is, no one appreciates his meddling.
This is the story of how Jim, Spock and Uhura fought 'destiny' and the other Kirk.
AND pretty much anything else by her is AMAZING!!!

"Some Victory" by waldorph http://waldorph.livejournal.com/155941.html
K/S Reboot Modern AU *Quote my comment for the fic* The modern musician setting, the clever plotting, the rival tension between Spock and Jim, the characterization, the spot-on dialogues, the whole crew's fitting in, the TBBT reference, and the smoking hot sexiest sex scene, I can go on like, forever! And all these rolled themselves tight and sweet like a delicate dish in 5000ish words.
"Spockoria" by waldorph http://archiveofourown.org/works/125770
K/S reboot AU. This fic is full of win win win!
Summary:
Spock is heir to the Federation throne, Jim is Prince of America because his fucking brother abdicated, and the Klingons are on the verge of blowing shit up--a love story.
And I love Spockoria's companion piece "You are Cordially Invited" to death. http://archiveofourown.org/works/125745
"One of a Kind" by Garryowen http://garryowen.dreamwidth.org/40742.html
K/S reboot. Based on the TOS ep "Devil in the Dark". The author's writing style is one of my favorites. And this one feels like flowing poetry.
