looking for an old lost k/s fic

Hello friends,

It is I again, asking difficult questions after years away :/

Looking for an old fic - not sure whether it was AOS or TOS, but I have a feeling it is the latter. Kirk and Spock are NOT in a relationship but they've been working together for years, and are as close as close can be. They have a thing where they introduce each other to cultural things once in a while, and this time Spock introduces Kirk to a vulcan delicacy which looks like small green cucumbers.

Cue seduction.

Then there's a problem because Spock feels embarrassed at his loss of control and Kirk shows him that everyone loses control during sex, and that it's perfectly normal and actually pretty hot. If I'm not mistaken, there's a moment where Kirk offers to leave if that's what Spock really wants, but Spock says no.

Desperately looking for this. Anyone?

EDIT: found in the links below! <3

plotty AOS fic recs?

Hey, probably weird request going to happen.
I'm looking for fanfiction with legitimate plot, preferably with implied or obvious Spirk, more kudos for logically reasoned science. It doesn't really matter if it's AU or not, and I would prefer adventure genre, but any other will be good, as long as author has fine grasp of heroes' characters and/or witty sense of humour.
My absolutely favourite is "Leave No Soul Behind" by whochick, not so closely followed by "Celebrate the Earth and Sky" by Aerlalaith and "Shore Leave" by narukyu, to give you some idea of what I'm looking for.
 I already went through Action/Adventure tag @AO3, but I know there are awesome fics posted untagged, and then there are ksarchive and FF.net and livejournal, and it's sort of tricky to single out fics with the action in the foreground, so... help?

Also, looking for Enterprise's departments-centered fics with Captain/CSO/CEO/CMO interacting with their minions (ideally, Spock in his scientific habitat), but so far I haven't seen anything even closely resembling these parameters.

Hi, I'm new

Hi all. I'm here because, while I've been a Star Trek fan practical since the womb, I've never participated in Star Trek fandom. A decided to fix that week or so ago, when I got a craving for good old 1960s TOS Trek, and decided to go looking for fic. This seems to have been in line with deciding to eat an elephant. There is fic galore, but I don't know where to start.

Can you folk tell me what are/direct me to a list of TOS fics that I absolute must read? You know, the classics that everyone knows and trope/cliche fics that demonstrate why those tropes are so awesome.

I'm focusing in TOS right now. Beyond that, I'll read just about anything, and I know how to use the back button for the rare few I won't.

Thanks in advance. Your advice is much appreciated.

Looking for two different things.

Hey guys first time posting here so hope I'm doing everything correctly. If I've done something wrong please tell me and I'll fix it.

These could be either TOS or the Reboot.

1.  I was looking for fics where Kirk isn't confident at all and his lover has to repeatedly assure him of just how amazing he really is, I know this has been done a lot so I'd prefer only the best and brightest of these fics please.  Pairings that I'd like to see with these is Kirk/Spock, Kirk/McCoy, or Kirk/Spock/McCoy.  I'm okay with some angst but no graphic torture please, and happy endings are a must.

2.  The second type of fic that I'm looking for is one where due to a misunderstanding/low self esteem Kirk doesn't think that Spock could ever love him.  I love misunderstanding fics, but the same rules as above apply.  McCoy is welcome, but graphic torture is out and happy endings are a must.

TIA

I’m not looking for any specific fic. I was just wondering what everyone's all time favorite Star Trek fic is. I’d be very interested to read them. :D
