Bad mom Winona and protective bondmate Spock *FOUND*

[just-m3h.livejournal.com]

Greetings, fellow Spirkers who dwell in the Interwebs,

Errm. Right, so, it was this story which was a one shot. Winona and Spock have a late night chat on the porch with Jim "secretly" listening by the door (superior Vulcan hearing, James. Honestly!) It was set in Iowa (shore-leave? Mission ended? Not sure, sorry) and the relationship was already established. I remember Winona asking whether Spock hated her or it might have been more of a statement. Spock does not refute (possibly implies she was a horrid mom) and she sorta blows her top for a second about "insulting her in her own home, etc." but ultimately accepts that she did not do right by Jim. References about abuse at the hands of Frank? I think. Emphasis on how much Jim means to Spock and how any transgressions against him, even past ones are near-unforgivable.

So vague. So sorry. Please help, if possible. Thanks ^.^
