Kotoba no Renkinjutsushi ~ 言葉の錬金術師 ~

I'm jacked up for the election tomorrow, even if half my facebook peeps have defriended me for my political posts. 0_o But I'm disturbed by the number of people who say they're not voting. I know we're all busy, but you've got to live with the outcome of this for four years, ppl!

Okay, now that the political posturing is done, on to the random plotbunnies.

Kirk/McCoy (Trek AOS crossed with Darker than Black) – Jim is a contractor in a world where the existence of contractors is not public knowledge. His contract power is the destruction of his enemies from the inside when he places his hands on them. His obeisance, or contract price, is kissing (yes, kissing) another person. For those who aren't familiar with DtB, contractors are basically human killing machines who have to pay their contract price every time the make a kill - More info HERE. Jim hasn't used his power on a human since Tarsus. But after an away mission goes south, he has to choose between letting Bones die, or using his power to kill their enemies. When Bones finds out what his friend is capable of, he is horrified. Oh, the angst.

Kirk/McCoy (AOS) - Jim runs into a young couple he knows from his pre-academy days. He lets it slip to Bones that one of them is an old flame of his, possibly the only one he was ever serious about. Bones mistakenly thinks Jim's former lover is the woman. Turns out it's the man. Big surprise for Bones, who was operating under the assumption that Jim was 100% straight. Will Bones do anything with this newfound bit of intelligence?

On a related note, I'm finally getting somewhere with my space_wrapped. Time travel is like the greatest plot device ever. And for once I'm putting our boys somewhere other than San Francisco or New York City.

AND OH HAPPINESS! I should get my invite to AO3 next week, so I can join the rest of my fanfic writing compatriots. I am disproportionately excited about this.

... to feed my army of plotbunnies.

Kirk/Spock (TOS or AOS or mixed) – A K/S shake-up of City on the Edge of Forever. Spock and Kirk have been circling each other for months, with Spock adamant that a relationship between them is untenable. Then Kirk ends up getting the cordrazine shot instead of McCoy, and McCoy and Spock have to follow him when he goes through to New York. This leads to a lot of Bones/Spock snarking, a lot of Spock learning about Jim from Bones, and a lot of Angsty!Spock, who realizes he may have blown his only chance to be with Jim.
After Edith Keeler is killed and they return to the Enterprise, Jim (who also had to suffer alone in New York with the idea that he’d never see Spock again) has decided that Spock was right after all, and a relationship is a bad idea. Spock now has to convince Jim otherwise. And to top it all off, poor McCoy is pretty traumatized because he was forced to let Edith Keeler die, and his inner Hippocrates is NOT happy. He unconsciously takes this out on Jim. Spock has to play reluctant referee while trying to get into Kirk's pants (both actual and mind-pants).

Kirk/McCoy (AOS AU) - McCoy meets Jim Kirk in family court a few times while he’s going through the custody battle for his daughter. He finds that Kirk is fighting for custody of his own kid and they take a shine to each other, bonding over displaced fatherhood. McCoy loses his custody battle. He signs on with Starfleet a year or more later only to run into Kirk again, who won his own custody fight. Kirk can be in ‘Fleet or not. Kirk and McCoy become fast friends, and are attracted to each other. However, Kirk is hesitant to start a relationship when his life is all about his career and his kid, and he doesn’t want to ruin his friendship with Bones. Bones is still healing after his epic divorce and also has a hard time watching Kirk with his kid when he never gets to see his own daughter. Of course, happy end is the result.

Kirk/McCoy (AOS AU) - McCoy is a ‘Fleet doctor. Kirk is a hot male nurse. Snarking, bad medical humor, inappropriate use of hypos and naughty use of biobeds ensue.

Looking for any depressing!sex fics in K/S or K/Mc. Also, I am still trying to make an A/B/O trope work for Trek (either Kirk/Spock or Kirk/McCoy). Any ideas, my darling f-list-ers?
