12 Haunting Slash Fictions That Will Ruin Your Childhood

5. Kirk And Spock Explore The Final Frontier

Has there ever been a friendship as sacred as Kirk and Spock's? Don't lie. That wasn't dust making your cornea moist during the final scenes in Wrath Of Khan. The comradeship between the steely-eyed Kirk and the logically-minded alien Spock is what made the original Star Trek tick. It was a friendship that embodied tolerance, unity, and, above all, giving into that most primal of urges and throwing caution to the wind in a whirlwind of sweat and shame. Oh, yes. That happened. In a single moment of weakness, the usually-professional Spock decides to be not-professional. "And In the Darkness Bind You", by Greywolf the Wanderer, is told from the perspective of Spock, who €“ if you don't know €“ is an even-minded alien from the planet Vulcan, whose people are defined by their rationality and lack of emotion. Having Spock describe the sexual tension (and the, ahem, releasing of said tension) is like listening to Siri narrate Fifty Shades of Beam Me Up. Even more disturbing is the inevitability of it all. Of course Spock and Kirk attempted to make space babies. It makes total sense. But don't just take our word for it. Rewatch Spock's death scene in "Wrath of Khan" and don't pretend you can't see Leonard Nimoy's lips silently mouthing "Don't tell anyone, please, dear God, what would my mother think?"
