Looking for fic - Jim grew up on a heavier gravity planet

[trasgapoca.livejournal.com]

I'm looking for a fic I read and it's driving me crazy because I don't remember enough details for a google search (do you have any idea how useless the words heavier, higher, and gravity are when looking for a Trek fic?).  What I do remember is Jim weightlifting in the gym and he's lifting an amount of weight that's normally impossible for humans.  He can do this because he spent time on a world with heavier gravity while growing up and worked to keep the extra strength.

That's all I can remember.  Just knowing my own reading, I can also tell you it's either K/S or gen.  And I'm 95% certain it's set in the new reboot 'verse.

Ideas?  Suggestions?  Any help would be most welcome.

That sounds really familiar--I know I've read a fic like that, and it'd be K/S, and I feel like the planet Jim grew up on was Vulcan, and then he went to the academy and he was kind of bragging about how growing up in heavier gravity was responsible for all his strength and endurance. I can't find it in my bookmarks though!

I'm pretty sure the one you're thinking about is The Sum of Both of Us by spicyshimmy ( http://archiveofourown.org/works/883469?view_full_work=true ).

But that's not the one I'm thinking about. I'm almost positive the fic I'm thinking of actually doesn't show any of Jim actually growing up. It's just a piece of knowledge that's randomly thrown in when he's caught lifting a ridiculous amount of weight in the gym.

Thanks for the suggestion though!

Hm! I considered The Sum of Both of Us, and I considered it so much I searched the text three separate times to make sure, but you're right, all those words show up multiple times in Star Trek fics and I still didn't find Jim lifting weights or mentioning Vulcan's gravity.

I hope you find the fic you're looking for!
