Kirk was saved from Tarsus IV by Vulcans when he was fourteen, but the memory of Kodos the Executioner and his child soldiers still haunts him. It takes another Vulcan to save him when a man resembling Kodos comes aboard the Enterprise, reminding Kirk that he never truly escaped his past.
Based on ‘The Conscience of the King’ from Star Trek TOS. Mentions of trauma, panic attacks, and starvation.

James Kirk is thirteen years old, and his world is ice, and bile, and terror.
Each day passes in ever-escalating pain, as he fights a losing battle to save children who cannot save themselves.
James Kirk is thirteen, and he is being hunted on Tarsus IV.
He shepherds starving kids on his back, holds their frigid, bony hands and hides them in caves or shrubs that are never safe for long. He feeds them bitter roots and berries, steals from camps when he can, and takes none for himself. His body devours what remains of muscle when fat runs out. He hurts everywhere.
Predators lurk in the shadows. They are children too.

Summary:
“What am I missing?” Jim said, cocking his head.
“You,” Uhura said, pointing at him and then his First Officer, “and Mr. Spock have to kiss each other. And not just a peck, sir. A full-on embrace. With a modest amount of tongue. That was very clear in the brief they sent.”
Next to Jim, Spock breathed in deeply and said, “Ah.”
Jim stared at Uhura. “Uh… Can you check it again?”
listen, my new favorite fanfic trope is Erik seeing Peter as a son figure, and having this whole speech to Peter about how they may not be related but he still cares for him yadda yadda… and peter just going “uuuuuhhhhhhh hey wanna know something funny”
I've been trying to remember what fandom this is from, maybe you can help me. I read some fics, and in them a character had grown up on some colonized/enslaved planet and there were a bunch of kids that got rescued from it, and he didn't like to let people know he was one of them. It was a m/m ship, and honestly that's all I remember. For some reason I thought it was Bones/Jim Kirk, but that's obvi not it because I know star trek. Help??
Hmm. Well, there are a lot of fics that deal with what happened on Tarsus IV. I can rec you stories that deal directly with it, deal with Jim's trauma from it, or mention it, but they're all Spock/Kirk. I hope that's okay!

Magpie by the always incredible @waldorph
Spock met Jim when he was 7 and Jim was 6. It has since been generally agreed that this was a mistake (or: the one where they grow up together and things are simultaneously better and worse for it).

Spock murmurs, “I cannot imagine a universe in which it is not my life’s duty to protect you. You are — “ he has to search for the right words, in Jim’s language. “You are — most dear to me, of all things.”
For Gladness of You by kariye
In which shit goes down in no particular order: Jim almost starts a war, Spock gets tortured, Jim gets kidnapped, Jim gets tortured, Spock gets not-quite-kidnapped, Jim takes the Enterprise joyriding, and mysterious Vulcans with their even more mysterious leader hop a ride for a few weeks. But that’s not what the story’s about. It’s about this: Jim was always going to fall in love with Spock – boldly, recklessly. He just didn’t expect to stay that way. A story about getting over all that.

Traumatized by his experience on Tarsus IV, Jim Kirk runs away to Vulcan to undergo kolinahr.
could you please update the top!spock tag? (I just like me some bottom!jim <3) THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING <333
The tag has gotten lo’s new fic since this ask was sent. Also the pon farr tag is mostly Top!spock stories.
Prehensile: An Alien Love Story by Pamdizzle
That trust was the only reason he was here, Jim reminded himself. Spock had come to him, unlearned in the demands of physical need, and confided that he could not seem to ‘alleviate the symptoms’ of his physical arousal on his own. He’d come to Jim for pointers, for Chrissake.
Call Me Brother by Deanna Gray
Based on the TOS episode “Whom Gods Destroy”. When Kirk tells Garth that Spock is his brother, he has no idea the connotations of that word when it comes to Vulcans. But he’s about to find out.

Spock has a ring kink, which doesn’t exactly help his control when Jim decides to buy a wedding ring. And wear it. In public.
Happy New Year ☺️🥳 In celebration of the day, I present to you a picture inspired by a fun AOS AU fic called ‘Next Best Destiny’ by @rabidchild67 in which a lovably nerdy science officer called Jim Kirk gets assigned to the Enterprise to serve under Captain Spock.
Wishing you all a happy and prosperous 2024 🖖

💛💙SPIRK FIC REC💙💛
This is probably a bit of a Marmite fic... (and for those of you who aren't from the UK, that's a reference to an old marketing campaign that stated "you either love it of you hate it" lol)
It a pretty intense AOS Pon Farr fic, which delves deep into the writers interpretations of Vulcan biology and what goes on during their Time. If you like Feral!Spock then there's a lot to recommend it. And if you like your smut GRAPHIC then you're in for a treat!
If you're of a more sensitive disposition then this one may not be for you, but I enjoyed it and hope a lot of you will too! 😊
Kirk bod appreciation #6: The Curves. The Front. The…chest. AND THE AMAZING GREEN WRAP
Bread and Circuses. This…vision appears. The hips, again. You know that thing where you see a really nice curve on something, and it’s just…pleasing? It’s just…nice. There’s harmony in the world and it’s calming and right. It could be the s-curve of a car, or a meandering river viewed from 30,000 feet, or the simple arc of a leaf. Or Captain Kirk’s hourglass. Look at his lines. We celebrate this on the feminine form a lot, but masculine curves? This is where Kirk is wonderful. There’s this whole dance of masculine-feminine and what is masculine or feminine anyway? Who gets to define that? And look at the…chest. Look at those shadows from a distance. Aren’t they just. I mean seriously. And the pinnacle. The Tum™. The tum is very important, and important that we stand up to the people who put him down for The Thicc, and say back the heck up here. Back right up. How DARE you. Let’s just all take a moment to love this bod, and love anyone who has this kind of bod, you are lovely and perfect.
Let’s talk about this wrap now. This wrap is brilliant. The wrap is one of the greatest items of clothing from the 20th/23rd century. Look at how this is the absolute perfect thing to dress this man in. Look how flattering it is, how it shows off all his beautiful things. Thank you, William Ware Theiss, for this legacy. The wonderful gay costume designer for Star Trek. Thank you, wherever your energy now resides in the universe. And screw you, world, for making it impossible to find clothes like this irl. Interestingly, wrap tops can be found but tend to be exclusively in the femme section of clothes stores. Now there’s another fun gender thing, which adds to the theory of Kirk being expressively non-binary.
Extra: lol at McCoy for looking just like Mr Bean in these hilariously unfortunate screencaps. He’s beautiful too, of course, but in a different way. I’ll leave the Bones-love to someone else…
