Stories by Djinn1

In "Lasting Impression," Chapel told Spock that human poets didn't write her love stories. But that's not true. In real life, I'm a published poet, yet I've only done one poem for Trek. That's going to change. This will be a running catalog. Starting with the poem I did a long time ago and moving on from there. These might be shippy or not, het or slash. Enjoy.

It's been a long time since I've written fanfic. But I'm back because I guess I needed to work some shit out with this one. This hasn't been beta read. All mistakes are my own. Feel free to post any typos in reviews or messages if you see them. And this has NOTHING to do with the Borg.

Grief is a road most often walked alone-unless you find kindred company. A sequel to A Meeting of Minds. Thank you to celticmusebooks and Kayci for the beta!

This is for Kayci & she knows why. She challenged me to write a Vulcan I hadn't written before. We saw Sonak for a few minutes at the start of the first movie. He had a tragic end. But Kirk knew him enough to recommend him to Decker. Who was he? How did he come to be in Kirk's orbit's? To be on the ship, on that transporter pad? Thanks to celticmusebooks for the beta!

A drabble serial for the Spock/Chapel folks who might need some sustenance during COVID-19 social isolation. I can't promise I'll update every day, but I'm going to try.

So much of the movie Generations didn't make sense to me. The Nexus, how it worked, why it worked. And Antonia. Like there weren't enough women in Kirk's past to give him, they had to make one up for the timeframe pre WOK that we'd never ever heard of? So how to make sense of it? I know: insert Q. (Another Strange New Worlds sub that didn't make it.)

So what would life be like for Valeris and Admiral Cartwright at Rura Penthe? (This was a draft that didn't make it into one of the Strange New Worlds anthologies. I thought new content might be a good thing right now.)

Sarek is struggling with the loss of Amanda. Chapel is at the end of an unhappy marriage. Can they help each other heal? Spock and Uhura have a big role but not the adversarial one they sometimes do in my fics, so if you are looking for something less dysfunctional, you might find this a breath of fresh air. Many thanks to celticmusebooks for the beta!

Every now and then I like to poke fun at myself. I hope this is as enjoyable to read as it was to write. This is a birthday fic for Kimecakes, but any other Spock/Chapel lovers are free to consider it theirs as well.

To say that Kirk was pissed off over what I did to him in "The Problem of Being Human," is to not understand how ticked off a character who's taken up residence in your head can be. So this is his answer. He wanted to be sexy and funny and heroic. I'm surprised he didn't ask for co-writing credit. Short and silly: enjoy! Many thanks to Celticmusebooks for the beta!

Amanda's world and marriage were secure until her son decided to go to Gol and abandon his emotions. Spock's decision will have implications that touch many people's lives. In ways expected, and not so. This goes all kinds of ways but not any of my go-to pairings. It's long. It's messy. I hope you like it. Many thanks to CelticMuseBooks for the beta.

The world is crazy and hard and I wanted something very, very fluffy. So I wrote this. I hope, if you need something fluffy and totally lacking any real plot LOL, you too will enjoy this. Thanks to Celticmusebooks and Trekfan for the betas.

All I wanted to do, during these horrible times, was write a nice romantic and sexy Spock/Chapel story. Do you think my muse would let me? No, she had to go and complicate it up so it's not fluff anymore. Hopefully, I still deliver something sweet.

Their marriage was severely tested during the Pon Farr, but things have been good since then. One little girl can't change all that-can she? (This is a sequel to "Nothing's Perfect" in the Kirk/Spock/Chapel AU Marriage series. Usually I only do these in Chapel's POV but another character needed a voice, so this is a little more experimental than others in the series.)

This is a prequel to "Grief," but you don't have to have read that story for this one to work. This is a look at how Kirk and Chapel came together, and how she and Spock found a way to friendship that would pave the way to what comes later in the first story. If you need a happier outing than "Grief," this may be for you.

A story about love but also about the havoc grief plays, and the many ways it affects us and others.

Love makes you do the wacky. So does grief. And when the two collide? This is messy as anything. Also a little experimental in the POVs. The title and chapter titles are from the Linkin Park song "Heavy." This is Spock/Chapel and also Spock/Uhura, but diehard Spock/Uhura shippers may not like this. This is for Ruth.

Betrayed by their partners after the events in STVI, Spock and Chapel finally turn to each other. But can they shake the past? How fragile is trust?

A death can change things. But sometimes the stories aren't what we think. Love isn't always simple. This is experimental. A longer explanation about how and why is at the start of the story. For those who've wished I'd do more Kirk/Spock, this might scratch that itch. For those who like Spock/Chapel, Kirk/Chapel, or all three, this also might be of interest.

So much fallout from the encounter with V'ger. Not all of it bad. Not all of it good, either. This gets messy. Please trust me and my muse and take the ride. I think you'll enjoy it.

This is an experimental, dialogue only story—no connective tissue. I usually despise works that don't use quotation marks to denote dialogue, but since that's all there is here, I'm going to skip them. If I did my job right, you won't miss them. I was missing these Jimbo and Chrissie, and I needed a diversion from the world, so...this is the result.

This is a very fluffy short coda to "Conduct Unbecoming" and a belated birthday present for Karika Z Dove. Enjoy!

Dysfunction city here. Post Khitomer and the death of Kirk is always ripe for a nasty turn for these two, but this may be the nastiest (in the mean sense, not the sexy way). I wasn't sure if the muse could deliver a happy ending for this one or not. I won't spoil whether she delivers. Take the ride. This is a little different Chapel than I usually write, but IDIC and all that.

Sometimes talking is easier when you don't say a word. For Geriatricfool, who has a birthday in March. On the chance it's the 1st of March, I'm posting this now. Just a little bit of fluff to say Happy Birthday! Hope you like.

I've done many fics & been good to Sarek & Amanda because I love them, but this time we're going to get messy. There are some inherent problems with a Vulcan/Human relationship & we mostly turn a blind eye (don't worry, not abuse or non-con). If you're a diehard Sa/A shipper & can't stand the thought of them anything but happy, skip this. Otherwise, buckle up because bumps ahead.

I finally saw Star Trek Beyond and while I was bored at the lack of plot, I didn't hate it as I did Into Darkness, which actually made me quit writing reboot. So since I didn't hate it, I decided to make use of the holes they left me and reinsert my favorite gal back into this shindig. This fic will work until the next movie comes out and blows it all to smithereens.

This is probably as much a character piece as a romance. Definitely a bit experimental-and a format that I think only works in fanfic where we have all the shared references. Hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Found this about a third done in my WIP file and had a jones to spend some time in the Buffyverse. This is AU if you buy that the comics are canon. I'm going to pretend that Season 8 and beyond of Buffy and anything past "Not Fade Away" on Angel never happened. This is Buffy/Giles-if you don't like that, best move on.

Been a while since I wrote a new fic. I've got several other going, but this one wanted to go first. I'm pretty obsessed right now with Sarek/Chapel, not just because I find it a hot pairing, but because it lets me turn a slightly different lens on the main characters as well as the supporting cast. It's fun to see from a different vantage point. Hope you like.

Spoilers for "The Same Boat" and all of the show through season six. We finally got a Caryl moment. So what happened next?

Got an urge to write the three of these guys together. Just a short little piece to satisfy an itch. I think it works whether you come to the rodeo for K/Ch, S/Ch, or K/S.

This is for celticmusebooks. Happy birthday. Short but hopefully sweet.

Been on a bit of a hiatus. Probably fitting that my return story is a Spock/Chapel. It's also a Kirk/Chapel, but those who dig Dr. C with the Vulcan can relax. Don't think I've dealt with the aftermath of Khitomer and the Enterprise B launch in precisely this way before. With thanks to Lifehouse for the lyrics as title & chapter heads. Now complete.

Another story i found started in my WIP file. This time with only a small portion done. So I used this as an exercise for some writerly things I'm trying to work on. Not that I need much of an excuse to write the Captain and Doctor C together.

I went into the WIP folder and found this mostly done. Since I was jonesing a little for some J/C, I finished it. It's been a long time since I've written them. Hopefully still have it.

So the first section of this has been sitting in my WIP file for 2.5 years. I knew I wanted to explore Kirk and Chapel in a post STV environment, which is not my norm (post TMP is more my speed). Spock plays a significant role here for those who tire of K/Ch fics that don't include him as much. This has the things I like the most: insecure Kirk, damaged Chapel, & unlikely friends.

It's been noted that I've never done a Scott/Chapel. There's a reason for that: I don't find the character attractive, although like McCoy he often steals the show with his wit. So it was a challenge to write something for them that didn't feel "false." To make this work, this also is a Spock/Chapel. Not my normal Chapel, although after so many stories, what does that even mean?

Some day I will get over my need to examine how people were feeling right after ST:TMP. But today is not that day. This is more a Kirk character study than some of my Kirk/Chapels, but all the players have a role.

Major Spoilers for "Forget" and eps before that. Where exactly are they taking Carol and Daryl? I'm afraid to find out, so I'm writing my own little moment for them before the next eps possibly blow things all to hell.

Spock/Chapel wasn't the first fandom/ship I wrote in (X-Files Mulder/Scully was) but it was the first Trek writing I did. We lost Leonard Nimoy this week and I wanted to do this in memory of him and return to one of my roots. It's probably fluffier than some, but I think that's appropriate. Still some banter cuz what's a djinn fic without that? Thanks to LilahKat for the nudge.

Spoilers for Reckoning and all of Season 7 really. What did Beckett really mean at the end of the show? I found myself needing to write this very short fic to sort out my own feelings on things. First Castle fic.

I am finding myself in love with the Sarek/Chapel pairing and wanted to do something a little less err angty and drastic than their last outing. Or if not less angsty, at least the angst will not come from complications from Spock. A longish one, for those who like a story with a little meat on its bones.

This is for Harmony Bites and she knows why. A bit experimental in the crafting, but at its heart, a Kirk/Chapel I hope she loves.

Happy birthday, celticmusebooks! I think you might like this better than some random chapter that might not be Spock/Chapel LOL. Spock, after V'Ger and Doctor C. For those who like such things. : )

Just a little filling in of the blanks. Spoilers for "No Sanctuary," The Walking Dead season five premiere episode. If you haven't seen the episode yet, you may want to hold off on this.

The road to hell and all that. This is Spock/Chapel and Kirk/Chapel, but not all three. Written for Harmony Bites, who provided the plot bunnies. Hope I used them well! No betas were harmed in the writing of this-all mistakes are my own.

I know I have a WIP in progress but I have a friend (she knows who she is) who could probably use a new Kirk/Chapel right about now. This is for her. All mistakes are my own: betas off the hook.

Okay, sorry to those who voted, but the story AND the listing disappeared so I had to repost. Hopefully everyone can see this! I'll be posting up bits of this when I feel the need for time with these lovely characters; there may be gap between chapters. Which means you have input whether Chapel ends up with Spock. Kirk, or both. Don't be afraid to vote both! It's what I want to do!

The heart wants what the heart wants. And then real life throws a monkey wrench into that concept. This is very long and very messy. It is Spock/Chapel and Sarek/Chapel (not necessarily in that order) but NOT all three (yes, even I have my limits LOL).

Now we all knew Kirk was not going to sit still and let Sarek and Spock get stories with the tart and not him! This one tracks canon. Thanks for the lovely reception after my absence. I need to go back to the original fic, but I'll pop in again when I need a break from the near-constant rejections. Because fanfic-even without the cool reviews-warms my heart. : )

I'm trying new things and this is (supposed to be) a prose poem. Spock valiantly offered to be the guinea pig for my attempts (actually he just was sick of his dad getting all the action, but he'll coat that in altruism, as is his way). It's the Pon Farr and them and maybe poetry buried in prose, if I did this at all right.

Short coda to "Awkward." Starts up where that one left off. Because the kiddies wanted to play. And because Chapel had a question for Sarek.

I have been working on other projects for months now, but was jonesing bigtime for some fanfic. Sarek and Chapel won the tug of war for what it would be about. Thanks to those who asked for another story for them-I hope you like this!. This is a standalone, not in the Life is Messy series. Because the death of a loved one can make things weird long after it's happened.

This is a sequel to "That Chance We Never Had." Takes place when Chapel leaves the ship to go to med school. Things are changing.

Goodbyes can be a chance to see what you've been missing.

This is my first Walking Dead fic & it's because celticmusebooks really wanted a Caryl story. My betas haven't seen this, cuz I really want them to watch the show and don't want to spoil things for them, so all mistakes are on me! Spoilers for all the way through season four, ep two. I've been team Daryl since the very beginning, so this was a joy to write, hopefully to read, too.

Happy Birthday to trekfan-written specially for her. It's super-duper fluffy but hopefully will bring a smile! Big shoutout to my regular betas, Harmony Bites and DC Lady for the fast turnaround on this and the great betas on everything!

Sometimes your characters challenge you to do new things. There are certain people I've never put Chapel with. Certain people I swore never to. Chapel took exception. Dared me. She knows me too well. This ended up being as fun to write as my Flash/Wonder Woman story (which had a somewhat similar genesis). Some readers might enjoy it. Others will hate it. Whatever: it's all good.

One of my fabulous betas, Harmony Bites, requested a Lori Ciani fic where she's not a villain. I loved that challenge and this is the result. I wanted to really dig into what this woman would have been like, what would have appealed to that Jim Kirk, at one of his darkest periods. Lori's not canon, so I picked and chose what I used of her fanon backstory. Still taking requests.

I am in debt to a reader for the suggestion to write a story with Leila Kalomi, which I had not done before. This is NOT what he/she had in mind (but look up what djinn means if you think that's out of character for me) This is Kirk/Chapel, Spock/Chapel, & Spock/Leila (that's in alpha order, not necessarily how things end). If you only want Spock/Chapel, go somewhere else.

A disastrous night together leaves Chapel trying to avoid Spock, so he works very hard to make things right. Snarky, possibly hot (and thank you to celticmusebooks for the nudge), with plenty of badly resolved sexual tension. (I'm home a lot & bored so I'm taking requests-if you've got a plot/pairing you wish I'd do, send me a PM. I can't promise I'll do it but I'll consider it.)

This woman had seen him at his very worst and liked him anyway. Kirk/Chapel, low angst, probably as romantic as I get these days. Cuz why not?

Chapel is under suspicion after the conspiracy. Spock is adrift after Jim's death and Valeris's betrayal. He cannot believe Valeris turned evil without help. And he thinks he knows exactly who might have had cause to want to ruin his lover. But how far will he go to look for evidence of Chapel's guilt? Rated M for language.

Because I can't do a sweet one for Sarek and for Kirk and not have Spock yammering for his fair share. Chapel and Spock find themselves adrift after the loss of Kirk and Scotty. For those who think I'm mean to Uhura, please note her running off with entire scenes here (not unlike what McCoy often does).

He wanted to get to know her better-but this might be more than he asked for. A straight-up Kirk/Chapel for those who've been missing such things. Not, of course, without some angst.

Very, very short Coda to "To Belong to Someone." I think Sarek is afraid he'll never get a shot at her again. And he knows I won't write Sarek/Amanda LOL. But mostly I wrote this cuz to me, they're fun and hot.

This is the final sequel in the series that started with For What It's Worth. When I first wrote that story, I didn't expect it to turn into something with so many installments. But it's been a fun ride as an author, if perhaps an infuriating (depending on your ship) one for the reader. This one will be no different. Enjoy.

This is a sequel to "For What It's Worth" and "Conference Blues." It picks the story back up when the post V'ger mission is wrapping up and goes through Star Trek V. This is people making a mess of things every way they can, and forging unexpected connections as they do.

Set after ST:VI and The Enterprise B launch, Spock wants Chapel to accompany him on a Diplomatic/Emergency Ops joint mission that goes very wrong. This is hurt/comfort, although not terribly graphic, cuz the hurt isn't the point, but thought I should give fair warning. For those longing for something Kirk free, this should fit the bill.

He gave her the smile that always used to annoy her. The knowing and arrogant one. She had to admit, tonight she found it kind of sexy. (This is a short sequel to "For What It's Worth," but it stands on its own if you didn't read that and just want a McCoy/Chapel fix. And just for the record, writing these two together in TOS is against my religion: I blame Trekfan LOL. )

I've done several threesome stories but this is the first time I've really tried to attack one in a realistic way. What would it be like to have to share? What if it didn't start from scratch with the three of you, but you were brought into an established pair? What if you fall in love, but not with both? This is Kirk/Spock and Kirk/Spock/Chapel.

I wrote most of this on Mother's Day cuz I was missing my mom, who died 15 years ago. I thought it would be interesting to explore how each of the TOS crew (and a few others) might have reacted to Kirk's death in Generations. I stuck to canon for this one as much as I could, so for once Chapel won't take center stage (she's fine with that LOL).

Blame this one on MizJoely. She wanted a simple, not frakked-up Spock-Chapel romance after What Are Little Girls Made Of. I tried, I swear I tried to do fluff. But my fluff always manages to dip a toe (if not more) in the angst pool.

He's bonded to one woman, involved with another, but situations change. Set before and during Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. This is Spock-Chapel and Spock-Valeris, and a bit of a retcon. I had fun with this.

This may be more a character study than a romance. It's Kirk's blackest time, the time on Earth after the first five-year mission. He won't give all his heart to the woman he's with-but does he ever? Once he's back on the ship-can he change? Or is it too late even if he can? This is Kirk-Chapel and Spock-Chapel. It is not all three. LOL

Set post Star Trek V, Chapel has rejoined the crew of the Enterprise. But she's not in the best emotional state and intervention comes from an unlikely source.

Back on his ship but with an ticked off Nogura at Command and an angry Chapel on his ship, Kirk has definitely had better months. For those who are tired of the weirdness, this is a bit fluffier-and fun. But, of course, not without some angst, cuz what's a love story with no angst? Sorry for the nearly invisible section breaks but the system won't accept my normal marks.

A mission goes wrong in so many ways. This is Kirk-Chapel. It may be Kirk-Spock-Chapel, or it may not.

"Forgive, sounds good. Forget, I'm not sure I could. They say time heals everything. But I'm still waiting." With apologies to the Dixie Chicks, but their song, minus the political parts, says it better than I can. This is Kirk-Chapel and Spock-Uhura and it's a messy story. Not any kind of multiples, so if you're afraid I'll add Uhura to the three-pack: don't worry, I won't.

A confession takes two people down an interesting road. I really, really, really did not intend to write McCoy another fic. But he bribed the muse while I was busy nursing a migraine and this little fic is the result. Irritating man.

It's not my habit to revisit stories. But I'm going to. This is "Featured Attraction" with the question "What if they'd been rescued 2 years instead of 2 weeks after being captured?" How would things be different? How would Spock and Chapel's relationship change? Will the same choices be made? This is twice as long as the original story, only the first 5K words are the same.

She's not nice. And she loves the hunt.

What's more real? Her love or his lust? And in the end, will it matter? Spock-Chapel.

Sometimes, when everything & everyone else is broken, it comes down to friendship. Uhura & Chapel friendship center stage, which I don't usually do. I guess it's a New Year's gift to Nyota, not one of my favorite TOS characters. This is Kirk-Chapel with Spock & Chapel friendship. Revised to address some concerns folks had with Kirk's actions. Thanks for the honest feedback!

Dedicated to MURPHYCAT a special Christmas story writen especially for her. In which I work out my own Xmas angst and still try to find a happy ending for Chapel's. Helped along with doting mother-in-laws, Vulcans, Gump's, and kitties, LOL. Merry Christmas!

Okay so this was supposed to be mostly just an excuse to let JTK and Doctor C get it on. But then the muse decided to insert some actual plot and angst into the witty banter and sexy time. She does that. I'm just her scribe and I key in what she tells me LOL. This is a little different Chapel than I normally go with. Enjoy.

Sometimes what happened in the past obscures a clear view of the present. Sometimes anger gets in the way of progress. Sometimes you have to shut up to really communicate. This is a flash sequence, and despite the title, this is not about bondage fun, nor in any way 50 Shades of Green, so ummm sorry if you were looking for that LOL.

After slavers who traffic in high-value labor take Chapel, she loses her identity but retains her skills. Kirk wants to get the rest of her back, & Spock is willing. But this is after V'ger and there are things unsaid that need to come out, on all sides. This is Kirk-Chapel & Spock-Chapel. Hard truths, compromised people behaving badly: this one's not light and bantery. No violence

An ensemble piece, following a bit of a serpentine path after the events of the movie. Most of the reboot characters I've written get a voice in this. Spock Prime-Chapel, Pike-Number One, Spock-Uhura are primary pairings.

Writing a serious TOS McCoy-Chapel is pretty much against my religion, and yet here I am doing it. I'm blaming trekfan for the plot bunny but my muse takes all responsibility for the contents. I've put these two together before, but never without some other partner taking precedence or McCoy being sort of an unwelcome stalker. This time, I let them go for it. And I like the result.

Chapel is happy now. Even though Kirk's stolen the ship from Decker and demoted her. She's happy because Spock's back. She can resume her crush on his best friend. She has no idea Kirk's in love with her. Primarily because he never told her.

Months after V'ger, a routine landing party proves anything but, and sets Spock on a path he didn't expect to be on. And one that proves more difficult than he expected. Straight up Spock-Chapel for those tired of other things. High on angst, some fun stuff too. I return to my roots for this one.

You sit and watch him. This man you love. This man you betrayed. You sit and watch him and you say nothing.

Kirk broke things off with Chapel, and he did it in a way he knew would hurt her since she was resisting letting go; he has no one to blame but himself if she moves on. So why is he having such a hard time letting go? And why does she seem to have picked his best friend to move on to?

This is for murphycat and she knows why. Spock Prime brought more than just bad luck with him to the past, only he thought this particular piece of baggage-literal not figurative-was lost when his ship was destroyed taking out Narada. Fortunately for him, he was wrong. This is bitchy Chapel at her best. It's silly, and it allows me to gently skewer the film and my own stories.

This is Kirk-Spock-Chapel, sequel to Still Life in Triplicate. This deals with mature themes. Life had been good to the trio-they've had some bumps from the outside but never a challenge to their relationship. Now they will, and it will come from the last place they expect. This is more explicit and brutal than i usually get, but there is a logic to that and nothing non-con.

They're functionally damaged, but they test well. Bodies of cast iron and hearts of shattered glass. That's how Jim Kirk, Christine Chapel, and Gaila manage to stay in Starfleet. And sometimes you need friends who've been there to understand. Not a threesome story, just a story about connections and trust. And an opportunity for me to write Gaila, which I've not done before.

Slayer Series. Sequel to "Pick Six." While Kirk and the others search for Lori, Spock finds himself facing the Pon Farr and this time with a new partner, something that affects Chapel in ways she didn't expect. Special appearances by Angel and Spike, cuz why not?

This started out as fluff. Nice, innocent, let them have sex in a different era fluff. But I think my muse is incapable of doing pure fluff. At any rate, this is Kirk and Chapel, living it up. Enjoy-it was fun to write and I hope it's fun to read.

Valeris betrayed him and Kirk is dead. Spock goes after the one person left to him, who was always there for him. An unhappy marriage won't be much of a barrier to his plans, but there may be more to Christine than he realizes. And he may have to work a lot harder than he ever thought to get her. Spock-Chapel.

For Hermione, having it all means managing it all. And what if, after all that, she finds she wants more? This is SSHG, but it takes a while to get there. A character study of Hermione—a layered and worthy heroine—and a chance for me to dip my toes in this fandom and poke at some things that both delighted and perturbed me. Many thanks to betas Harmony Bites and DC Lady!

An unforeseen action during the Pon Farr leads to a commitment Chapel and Spock may not be ready for and no, this is not baby fic . Probably my most "in character" portrayal of these two yet, and a hopefully realistic look at two people trying to accommodate their new situation.

A story for those who have despaired that I could actually write a Spock-Chapel story that was a. about Spock and Chapel and b. remotely romantic or hot. Yes, I do still have some of the old S-Ch fire in me. I really like this one-hope you do too.

This is a sequel to Fevers Break, which is a sequel to Fever Dreams. If you liked how Fever Dreams ended, don't read this. If you think that Fever Dreams could go any of a lot of different ways, then you might like this, but read Fevers Break first.

She thought sex would open his emotional doors, not slam them all shut. This is Spock-Chapel, Kirk-Chapel, and God knows what else.

Kirk and Chapel are stuck in a fairytale world. But why? And how do they get out? This is aiming more for the funny bone than the angst meter.

I don't like what the powers that be did with Kirk in Generations, but it's canon I guess so I'm going to work with it. How did Kirk meet Antonia-and why'd he leave her? And what does Chapel have to do with it?

Trapped with a Chapel who doesn't remember him on a world built for fighting, Spock tries to determine what's right and what's not. I promise in this Kirk will not steal his woman. For those who are tired of such things.

After the conspiracy and Khitomer, Chapel lives under a cloud of suspicion. Kirk & Spock may be the only ones who can help her get out from under it. But what else do they want? This can go all kinds of ways including Kirk-Spock-Chapel. Be warned.

This is an aspect of Chapel I haven't really explored before. It runs on assumptions on relationships and family bonds or lack thereof , and you can probably tell my by the title it's not a happy-go-lucky piece. It's Spock-Chapel, but mostly Chapel

A crash, a test, a chance encounter. This is the Kirk-Chapel version of banter and romance. Cuz Kirk was not happy with me, either, over "Doomed to Repeat."

Because after being put through my last story, Spock demanded a lighthearted or as light as *I* ever go romance where he gets the girl and does NOT have to worry about Kirk stealing her. So, here it is, me returning to my roots. It's Spock-Chapel.

Can people really change? I watched the Original Series in order iTunes remastered order, so it's a bit off from other airing orders and then do a bit after each ep. This is the result. It's not my normal take on them. K-Ch & Sp-Ch. Long: 44,000 words.

Sometimes why we do things is not that important-other times it is. This is Kirk-Chapel. With an unexpected guest at least I didn't expect this character to try to steal the story away-characters get revenge, don't let anyone tell you differently .

Sometimes to get away from one thing, you'll reach for the next closest thing. This is Kirk-Chapel and Spock-Chapel,and there are so many other ways this could go, I'm not going to spoil it. If you aren't up for wherever this might go, bail now.

It's an easy philosophy to quote, but to live by? Apologies in advance to any Kuk Sool Won practitioners--if facts are wrong, it's entirely my bad. This is Spock-Chapel fic. Bits of hurt/comfort.

The events of "I Will Remember You" are over and gone, except for in Angel's memories. But what if he does become human some day? Is there any kind of happy ending for him with Buffy? Written for bhoney as part of the Support Stacie Auction.

A Vulcan on the hunt is an impressive thing. Also hopefully funny. Spock Prime-Chapel. Written because I'm tired of beating up poor TOS!Spock and Spock!Prime.

What makes her stay? A Pike-Number One fic. Also an ensemble fic, the kids from the movie took over way more than I expected. The title comes from a Deanna Carter song. Angsty. Hopefully also a bit funny. Cuz if Joss Whedon can do it, I want to.

After the angst fest of Fever Dreams and especially Fevers Break, I thought some fluffy TOS fic might be in order. This is me playing with one of my two favorite TOS couples and putting some plot in between the kissing. Some, not much. Kirk-Chapel fic.

This is a sequel to Fever Dreams and probably makes best sense if you read that one it will also spoil Fever Dreams if you haven't read it yet . Fever Dreams might turn out happy, or it might not. This is a look at a might not scenario.

They're very good friends. This is my first venture into Kirk-McCoy-Chapel fic, so look away if you aren't into OT3.

Memory is a tricky thing. So's love. This is TOS Spock-Chapel fic. A bit of an angst-fest for a holiday offering. Oh well, it's what the muse wanted to write.

She doesn't know why she's with him. Authors Note: I got this idea. It's one of those "Oh, no she didn't" kind of things. So, oh yes, I did. Spock Prime, Chapel, and others. Not related to Quantum Lust or Love Without Rules.

Two people looking for second chances, but are they looking in the right place? This is Spock Prime & Chapel--but not related to another story about them I wrote called Quantum Lust. I found a new way to play this.

After the events of the movie, trauma takes its toll on Pike. This is Pike-Number One fic.

McCoy tries to figure out his new nurse. This is McCoy-Chapel fic, which I don't do in regular Trek, but I wuv me some Karl Urban. Imagine Tricia Helfer, if you like, as Chapel.

You can probably tell by the title what this is about. It's my attempt to look at my fav characters through this lens. It's Kirk-Chapel, but if you dig Spock-Chapel, there's probably something here for you, too. Mature themes.

I wanted a nice, sweet Kirk-Chapel romance. Instead, I got this. Spock wanted a big role, too, and nobody wanted to follow the script. It's rated M mainly for language.

Why Spock went to Gol is a story that's been done to death. I've examined it myself a few times. But I had some insight recently and this story is the result. Hope you like it.

Sometimes old friends are more than just that. Part of the Majel Tribute being held at ASCEM.

A sequel to The Me You Never Knew. What happens next.

Chapel reminisces and lets some interesting truths loose. But who is she talking to?

This is Kirk and Spock and Chapel so those who don't want to read such things best look away. This is not part of my other series, just a little standalone thing I decided to do to amuse myself.

Set after STVI, this is my attempt to find something new to write about Kirk and Chapel. And I think I succeeded. See what you think.

Still trying to follow canon while finding something new for these two. This one's a bit harder, a little edgier. Kirk & Chapel fic.

This fills in the blanks from Giles POV Buffy S7 ep Lies My Parents Told Me to Angel S5 ep The Girl in Question, and it's not contradictory to the Season 8 comics slight spoilers for issue 1. This is BuffyGilesish. Look away if you're averse.

Some fics are just so strange you aren't sure where they come from. This is one of them. A KirkChapel fic.

Sometimes I get a hankering to return to my roots and just do some silly SpockChapel banter. I decided to indulge myself. Hope you enjoy

It's Valentine's Day, and Vic is sure this pairing will work. Who am I to argue with the master?

Love can get messy. This has slash elements. Kirk. Spock. Chapel. Not all together, this time. More mix and match.

Sometimes lives don't touch so much as run alongside, other times they take a detour. Kirk & Chapel story.

Be careful what you wish for. This is a Spock Chapel story.

People connect in all sorts of ways. Kirk Chapel fic.

Sequel to Redefining a Partnership. Look for more old friends to show up in this continuation of the story post Buffy season 7 and Angel season 5. This is Buffy & Giles fic but it's more than just romance. And I think it avoids the ewww factor.

Sequel to Siren Voices Floating Round Thee. Post Not Fade Away Angel Season 5 Finale and Buffy Season 7. This is BuffyGiles fic, and I realize the potential squickiness of that concept. This story, I think, addresses it. Best to read the first story

They of all people know the danger of reopening old wounds. This is a little different spin on the events around the second through fourth movies, but still following canon. It is a Kirk & Chapel fic, for those who like these two.

This is post Not Fade Away Angel Season 5 Finale and Buffy Season 7.

Some storms come on suddenly. Some build up over time.

A sequel to Downtime. Old relationships change, new relationships grow, and some relationships just defy explanation.

Sometimes you need to slow down to see how things really are. Sometimes you're forced to slow down. My first Firefly fic. I hope I did right by them.

He conjured her up on a pleasure planet but we never really knew her. So who was Ruth, anyway?

Set right after ST:TMP, there's a big difference between a fun fling on Earth and a romance with a crewmember.

Some characters should never have access to the muse.

Sometimes you just have to watch. This is dark.

Janeway got them home. Now what?

This is a sequel to "Nexus." Healing will happen--in time.

This is the last story in the Blood Ties trilogy. It starts a few years after "Blood Debt" and is set during the Dominion War. This has been sitting in the WIP file for a while now; I'm glad the muse finally decided to revisit these characters.

For those who liked the original Kirk-Chapel pairing, this is the fourth in that series. It follows: "Like We Never Had a Broken Heart," "A Particular Pain," and "Living in Ashes." It's been a long time since I've written these two, hope you enjoy revi

Sometimes life isn't a fairy tale, and the meek don't inherit the earth. What happens then?

A moment. Set during the 3-month exile between ST III and ST IV.

Abandoned. Alone. Angsty. It's KirkSpock, TMP timeframe.

Sequel to "Commander." The continuing look at Chapel through the careers.

Sequel to "Scientist." The continuing look at Chapel through the careers.

Sequel to "Doctor." The continuing look at Chapel through the careers. This one is a bit less fluffy. And I'm the mistress of understatement, LOL.

Sometimes you have to wait a long time for what you want. This is a birthday fic for DebbieB -- author id 290366

Sequel to "Nurse." The continuing look at Chapel through the careers. This one gets a bit frisky, LOL. And tracks Canon--as much as we know of it around this timeframe.

The first story in a series that looks at Chapel through her various careers. This one tracks canon, so it should be fun to try to fit KCh into the mix.

Our intrepid threesome explores a new frontier: getting married. No weddings or wedding planners were harmed in the making of this story. The use of illegal substances is not encouraged. Professional fictional characters at work: Do Not Try This at

Written for the Christine Chapel Fanfiction Fest. The challenge was to have Chapel switch bodies with someone as the result of a transporter accident. It could have been humorous and fun, so of course my muse took a darker road instead.

I think it might be one of the signs of the end times when I write something this fluffy. Oh well, it was a literary challenge, LOL. Dialogue only. And more KirkChapel is always a good thing, isn't it?

Slayer Series. This follows Unstoppable. Eleventh and final story in the series.

Slayer Series. This follows Course Correction. Tenth in the series.

Slayer Series. This follows Dirty Secrets. Ninth in the series.

Is there anything worse than mandatory training? Only if it's a motivational seminar-that's not motivational. Fortunately, if the company is good, you're not so bad off. I've been to wayyyy too many of these, I think.

Slayer Series. This follows Sins of the Past. Eighth in the series.

How much can you take before too little becomes not enough? A sequel of sorts to The Attraction of Falling Bodies, but you do not have to have read that story for this to make sense.

Season Five. Intervention post-ep. Let's have a bit more of that great last scene.

Spock has a secret. This is slash. Sequel to Physician, Heal Thyself. (And First, Do No Harm, Dregs and Embers)

Sequel to Embers (and First, Do No Harm and Dregs). So what does McCoy think of Kirk and Chapel's relationship? If you thought First, Do No Harm was dark...

Emotional Rescue" PrequelInterlude. For those who wondered what exactly "delightful" meant.

This is a sequel to Blood Ties, set during the TNG era (after the ep "Unification"). It's sort of a fairy tale, if perhaps a dark one. There's some femslash in this. If you're not comfy with that, best move on.

I fell in love with Vic Fontaine from his first appearance on DS9, and found out how much fun he was to write in "Another Bad Night." So I decided to explore his life a bit more.

This story, told from the point of view of Spock and Chapel's daughter gives a dark view of the couple. The tale twists and turns as it follows the young woman through the important events of the Star Trek universe. Is it AU? Maybe ... maybe not.

Older story. This was my first attempt at Spock and Chapel. An ambitious series of stories that goes from ST:TMP to after ST:VI. Formatting problems in first section have been fixed.

This is a short installment in the Carter series and hopefully a fun one with ummm something for everyone. To say more would be to spoil it.

TOS timeframe. Prompted by the question: "What would it be like for a lone human aboard a Vulcan ship?"

Older Story. During and after Amok Time. The burning is over. So what are these feelings Spock has for Christine?

Sequel to Rabble Rouser's authorid 124760 excellent story Weeds storyid1264422. You should really read that first. This is from Khan's perspective. It's dark.

Sequel to Extreme Unction and Toxic. Traces the life of Spock as we never really saw it through both his eyes and Christine's. But where is Christine? This is a different kind of story...prepare yourself for a bizarre, yet interesting, ride.

A sequel to Toxic and a bridge to the next story... To say more, well, why ruin such a weird little tale?

Older story. Response to a challenge to write a story where Spock andor Christine lose a bet and must publicly display some previously unmentioned talent.

Older story. Response to a challenge to write a story where Christine dies.

And now for something completely off the wall...

This story was a response to a challenge on the Enterprise and Beyond list to take the Archer-Tucker "crossing the desertfinding the hut" scene in the Enterprise ep Desert Crossing and rewrite it for your favorite pair in any series. Spock and Christine g

A challenge story. Jadzia tries to find out what's on Kira's mind.

This is a response to a challenge to explore a character's hidden side. Not sure where this story came from. The muse was in a very weird space the day this was written.

This is the second Endgame coda I wrote. This bloody episode just won't let go. This is an altogether different spin than the one in Crippled Queen. Think Twilight Zone.

Endgame (Voyager finale) coda. Something in Endgame disturbed me. Something about Janeway. This came to me. Helped me understand.

Post-ep to Shattered. Chakotay's musings after the events of the day.

Disappearing scientists hardly sound like a job for the Carter crew...but they may find they have no choice but to solve the mystery. This follows Here Be Dragons.

Reeling from recent tragedy, Chapel finds it hard to deal with another. This follows It's Always Something.

They made it through the last outing. What's ahead for the Carter Crew? This follows A Matter of Life and Death.

The title says it all. This follows The Way By Moonlight.

Post-V'ger, Spock is ready to explore his emotions. Chapel only wants to run the other way.

Sequel to Dregs (and in First, Do No Harm universe). They shared their pain, but then fate intervened. Now that everything is back to normal-or nearly so-is there anything left for Kirk and Chapel?

Sequel to Forgotten. Deals with mature themes. What happens when you finally come home?

A magical island brings two hurt people together. A solstice story. For those who celebrate Yule, Happy Sun Return!

Where does a nightmare end and reality begin? Another KirkChapel, this time with a hurt-comfort theme. But it's a lot more than that. This is an ambitious story, and long. I think you'll like it.

PikeNumber One. A close call makes Pike question the way things are.
