Blind Jim Fic I'm trying to find

Hiya, I'm in a bind here. I'm looking for a specific fanfiction where Jim Kirk was born blind and is recruited for a program where if they're able to give him his sight, then he can join Starfleet. It's a Jim/Spock piece and I've tried really hard to find it again. I feel that it is still out there, but it just hasn't been found on my own.

I remember a few scenes better than others. Like, when Jim kind of met Spock for the first time, he thinks of him smelling really good even though he's a few feet away and he either thought of him smelling like cocoa or fresh and nature-like.

I think another scene is where he's in Spock's class and Spock calls him out on something and he tells him something along the lines of, "That's swell and all, but I guess that's maybe because I'm blind." He might have pulled down his sunglasses, I can't truly remember that part of the scene.

Another scene is where he meets Spock's parents for the first time by answering Spock's door, home alone in the Vulcan's apartment, and his mother gasps saying , "My god, you're blind." Or something of that affect.

I remember that Jim is asked to talk to former Starfleet officer that was blinded since Jim was blind from birth, hoping to encourage the officer to join the same program as Jim, to rejoin Starfleet duty.

I hope this is enough information.

If I could just get a name to the fic and who it's by or a link to it, that'd be great if can find it.

(Also, I'm a new livejournal user, so I'm sorry if my tags are a little much, gomenasai.)

Ah, that makes me very sad; very unfortunate to discover. Thank you, at least I don't have to keep searching for something that isn't around anymore.

I remember reading that story, but never could remember the author. Anyway, if it was one of the works by scraplove, it had been deleted out of the universe, never to be seen by fandom eyes ever again :(

seems she only posted one of eleven there but if you hit the blind! Kirk (in blue just above story) you get to a kink posting for blind!

Second edit: keep rolling I found 12!
