Hello!
It's been a while since I've posted here and I'm ridiculously grateful this comm exists!
I'm not looking for a specific fic but more a type of fic. I've always seen Jim Kirk as a very powerful, charismatic character. I've always seen him as with the ability to stand up for what he thinks is right, regardless of whom he's standing up against.
I'm looking for fics in which Jim has to make a stand, as a captain of the Enterprise, that he's not going to do something, or that he's going to do something, and consequences be damned. I think he'd be standing off against the Fleet, but I'm not picky about that. I'm just looking for an assertive, righteous Kirk, who's got contingency plan upon contingency plan, just in case this sort of thing were to happen. This would tie in to the whole Genius!kirk thing.
The cherry on top of the cake would be if everyone expected Spoke to be 'reasonable' and 'sensible' and to support the Fleet because that was his job, but Spock stood with Jim regardless, because he agrees with him.
This might be a rogue!Enterprise fic, where the entire crew goes with them, or an exile fic, where Jim (and Spock) are sent away for defying the authorities, or something. Viva la revolution. Idek. Looking for something darkish, but not mirror verse. Slash is great, but if not, gen please. I don't mind which universe it's in, TOS or STXI, either is fine.
I hope this isn't nonsense, and that something even vaguely similar to this exists out there. I'd appreciate any help I could get.
