    Summary

    The NSS T’Vann was going to crash.

     

    Thirty-one standard seconds was not enough time to launch the escape pod.

     

    Despite their reputation throughout the galaxy as emotionless automatons, even a Vulcan was not immune to the overbearing weight of fear. Emotion was not purged by evolution, but mastered with lifelong training. In moments of certain doom, those less disciplined would succumb to their primal nature. Years of practice would slip away – mere grains of sand racing through cracks between fingers.

     

    ...

     

    Cast out fear. There is no room for anything else until you cast out fear.

     

    Spock repeated the words as a mantra in his mind. They were the original words of Surak, the sermon which had saved their species from self-annihilation. His wisdom had delivered them from fear and the destructive, untamable force of entropy.

    Yet, Spock could not cast out fear, for he was stranded on this alien world inhabited by barbarians – and he was alone.

    Summary

    When Jim is dying in the warp core, Spock does not interrupt him, and Because you are my friend is never said. In its place is an admission whose consequences Jim had not intended to live with. As it goes, he hadn’t exactly factored a miraculous resurrection into that one.

    Summary

    A t’hy’la bond is a sacred, joyous thing. It is not a thing of accident, of mistake.

    When Jim and Spock are accidentally bound together during a first contact meeting with a telepathic species, Spock is consumed by the guilt of forcing Jim into a lifelong bond that cannot be broken.

    Jim, for his part, just wants to figure out if Spock likes him or not.
