Currently on the hunt for some more Bones-centric fics, if anybody has some to recommend I’d owe you a bazillion marsh-melons <3 please and thank you :D

(For this round, I would prefer aos, but would still happily take tos. McSpirk or /OC or /reader would be best, but I’ll explore any pairing rn.)

mckirk week day 6 : transporter malfunction @mckirkevents

< this is less shippy than i wanted it to be i might make a sequel . . . >

Also, Spock is physically incapable of greeting Bones without making fun of him. He can't. If he tried I think it would kill him.

Every single Star Trek novel makes Spirk canon btw. All of them.

…i don’t think your doctor is meant to do that, actually…

Sometimes I'm like did AOS Bones ever get in trouble for sneaking Jim onto the Enterprise and most definitely breaking more rules than Jim did by cheating on a test??? But then it's like if he hadn't done it, the entire Federation would be gone and if they can forgive Jim, they probably can forgive Bones.

Everyone's like AOS Jim is this giant rule breaker and its like yes he is but you can tell that by just looking at him. With McCoy you never know when hes going to be a good little officer or when he decides to throw the rule book out.

@ensnchekov liked for a Bones starter

"Mr Chekov. I don't enjoy being a nagging mother, but it seems I have no other choice." Bones would never understand this crew's determination to practically ignore their health. Half the time he felt like he was talking to a wall. "I thought I told you to keep your fluids up and to eat something every few hours. Now, if you are determined to continue to work, you need to take care of yourself as well. You're still running a fever and it's not getting any better."

In a timeline where Christopher Pike did not accept his promotion to Fleet Captain, James T. Kirk receives command of the USS Farragut. As the Farragut starts her voyage, the tragedy that happened on board six years ago continues to haunt Jim’s mind.

Kirk-centric Kirk/McCoy pre-slash/friendship, 1775 words, T. 

Based on TOS episode Obsession and SNW episode A Quality of Mercy. Mainly Obsession.

“What’s the matter, Jim?”

The blue behind the large window moved fast, carrying them further and further away from Earth.

“I thought you’d be happy.”

His first starship command. A mission spanning five years. To patrol. To discover. To meet. To friend. Everything he’d always dreamt of. It was ironic it was on board the same vessel as his very first deep space assignment.

“Do you sometimes get the feeling that you’re living a life you’re not supposed to?” Jim fiddled with his empty cup.

McCoy’s forehead creased in confusion. “You've always wanted to be a starship captain.”

“That’s not what I meant. This ship…” The observation deck was modernized yet still looked the same as before. Captain Garrovick would often sit at the table in the corner. Sometimes alone. Sometimes with his senior officers. Always with a cup of black coffee. “It’s full of ghosts.”

Something that's so funny to me about Bashir is that McCoy and Crusher both are definitely the CMO. They arrive when medical emergencies happen, and they are "a doctor not a [...]." But Bashir will do anything. Engineering? He took an extension course at the academy. Partical physics? Sure, why not. Piloting? He's there on the bridge ready. Hand to hand combat? He'll give it a go. A man who is permanently up for anything and overqualified for all of it.

An indepth analysis of various Spocks using scales of Cuntiness and Bitchiness

TOS Spock

A category 10 quake on the Cunter-scale, has a PhD in cuntology. So cunty it breaks the meter, levels of cunt unimaginable to the ordinary man it cannot be categorised. The needle is spinning out wildly because his cuntiness cannot be measured by the usual metrics.

Highly Bitchy, but in a controlled way. Will lash out when put in situationsTM or placed with Doctor McCoy. Will tone down on bitchiness when comforting his Captain.

AOS Spock

Serving cunt but as a side and not the main course. Is highly cunty but not as much as Spock Prime. Has not has enough screentime to unleash his full Cuntology expertise. I recon he can serve more cunt but I need another movie to prove my theory.

Severly Bitchy, so bitchy it breaks the scale. The first time we see him on screen he is already bitching. Has a Bs, Ms, and PhD. in Bitchology. Putting him with his Captain or the CMO will increase bitchiness to levels that can't even be measured as our scales do not go that high. The bitchiest Spock yet.

SNW Spock

Still a young man and has not completed his studies in the art of being Cunty. In his compulsory heterosexuality fuck boy era but I see potential. Mildly cunty when he is allowed to be. I am confident that his cunt will increase when he learns about eyeshadow, eyeliners, mascara, lipstick and billowing robes.

A moderate bitch, generally nicer and more mild manner than the other spocks but he certainly has his momments. When placed with Sam Kirk bitchiness will increase exponentially over time. I am confident that overtime as his exposure to humans increases his bitching abilities can be properly honed and weaponised.

long time no comic... i think it'd be so funny if jim and spock (dating) got transporter malfunction'd back into kids and instantly separately developed the world's most obvious puppy crushes on the resident long-suffering girldad cmo (not dating) and battled constantly for mccoy's attention to the incredible amusement of the bridge crew. that's what unresolved pining does to a (mc)spirk i guess. bones is so done lmaoo. where's scotty's legendary ability to fix transporters when a guy desperately needs to have a relationship conversation with functional adults (who really may not have been as functional as he assumed loll given the pining).

do you see my vision... id write this if i didnt have Too Many WIPs (and too few spoons) 😔

Oh damn

[captainofthestrangestship]

Look I love emo McCoy who blows up his life because of the things that happen in STID or in Beyond as much as the next guy but what about an aos!McCoy who doesn’t do that and actually likes being on the Enterprise?

So the events of Beyond happen slightly differently so that both Jim and Spock both decide to leave the Enterprise, ie for this they have to be way more emotionally closed off than they actually are at the end of the movie. Meaning after they go through the hours of debriefing necessary after Beyond, Jim tells Spock that he’s accepted the role of vice admiral on Yorktown, saying he’ll recommend Spock for the Captaincy. Spock stands there for a second, like this is super awkward, I have decided that my presence is more requited on New Vulcan and I am continuing Ambassador Spock’s work.

They would stand there in an uncomfortable silence neither willing to talk through this and if its even a good idea or not and then they both nod at each other, “this was a great discussion, good luck on New Vulcan” “I wish your endeavour as Vice Admiral is fulfilling” and get the hell out of there.

At some point later Jim finally tells McCoy, he’s been putting it off since he knows Bones will try and talk him out of it and he really can’t handle that.

Bones of course tells him he’s being an idiot and what the hell do you think you’re going to do behind a desk. Jim just tells him its what he wants and that he’s doing what best for him. Bones doesn’t push too hard and just tells him some day he’s going to wake up and hate his life so much that he would be willling to steal a spaceship just to be captain again.

But then Bones sorta throws him for a loop, and tells Jim he’s going to miss him and the Enterprise won’t be the same without him. Not that he would ever admit it but Jim was sure that Bones would also leave the Enterprise if he left and maybe even take a position on the Yorktown, Cos like Bones hates space and Bones has sorta gone above and beyond for Jim. Jim really doesn’t know what to do about this. Since he’s emotionally closed off he does’t ask Bones to leave the Enterprise with him, so he just lets that idea go.

So McCoy stays as CMO because he’s already done the whole running away when things get tough thing and he actually loves being in space and exploring the great unknown, he just likes to complain. Also he can’t exactly hypo Jim and drag him back onto the Enterprise to be captain

Meaning Sulu becomes captain, Uhura is still chief communications officer, Chekov is the navigator,  Scotty obviously stays as CE, Carol comes back as science officer and some rando is the pilot. (dont know who the first officer would be either Uhura or Chekov or maybe a new person who’s older)

Over the next five years McCoy stays in touch with both Jim and Spock, basically trying to get both of them to realise they belong on the Enterprise but neither budge. 

The crew have fun wacky hijinks in space, while Jim and Spock both grow to hate the work they’re actually doing. Maybe Jim gets promoted to admiral which he some how hates even more. Spock realises he still is sorta out of place among Vulcans and has not actually married a good Vulcan girl and had children like he thought he was going to (how he survives pon farr is anyones guess) McCoy can see it on their faces when they talk but he’s stuck in the middle of deep space so theres nothing he can really do. (he also knows they have to come to this realisation themselves) However McCoy is having a great time, loving space, loving his job and doing the badass doctor thing. (I do think he tells them this hoping it will change their minds or maybe make them jealous or to be like what the hell guys I’m enjoying life, you guys should be happy too. This does not work)

Then finally the five year mission is over, Jim and Spock both go to Earth to see the triumphant return of the flagship. 

McCoy just looks at both of them for a few moments and asks if they’re ready to steal that spaceship yet (and to get their heads out of their asses)

CMO. Leonard McCoy. Hot.

[witchoflegends]

"Now, you listen to me, young lady." His voice became stern and unwavering as he spoke. "You are not here out of pitty. Starfleet doesn't do pitty." It didn't matter who her dad was. If Starfleet didn't think she was ready, then she wouldnt be on the Enterprise. The Academy didn't spend so much time and effort pushing out the best of the best to just let anyone slip past on name alone. "And labrat or not, you are still a kid. That is an undeniable fact. One I'm sure Spock would even corroberate."

Dr. McCoy was a steady presence next to her, and it settled something inside of her. "I wanted to do better. Be Better. . . I just couldn't do what he wanted. And it only got worse the harder he pushed." And resulted in her mind fracturing, leaving her unable to experience time like everyone else. "I was never a kid, Dr. McCoy. . . I was a baby, and then I was a labrat. . . Now I'm a mess who got into Starfleet out of pity."
