Star Trek Reboot

Graduate Vulcan for Fun and Profit by [livejournal.com profile] lazulisong
"There has been one other human that has attained this level of mastery of the Vulcan language, and she is an ambassador's wife." Sakel stares at him pointedly. / Jim kind of just has to gape at him for a second. "Are you saying I should let everybody know I know Vulcan so I can marry up?" / "That is illogical," says Sakel primly. "I merely mean to point out that it is a rare accomplishment, and one you should take satisfaction in." / "Oh my God, you have some sort of Vulcan crush on this woman!" howls Jim, even more horrified than he was a second ago. / "Amanda Grayson is young enough to be my granddaughter," says Sakel, which is totally not a denial. Utterly lovely story about Kirk and growing up and languages.

How Many Roads? or, 27 Times Jim Kirk Hit On Nyota Uhura by [livejournal.com profile] captanddeastar
Jim Kirk is a pig. He is unquestionably a pig. But when Nyota steps on a sharp stone and falls, Jim helps her up without question, and he asks her deferentially whether she'd like him to give her a hand, with no innuendo, and without just assuming he's welcome. Lovely story of the long bickery friendship between Kirk and Uhura.
