Pairing: Spirk (Kirk/Spock)
Word Count: 12,265
Summary: Jim is an extraordinary human. He exceeds expectations constantly set for him in all areas of his life. His leadership abilities, his quick thinking, and his intellect are contributing factors in his potential for becoming a great starship captain. His fair colouring and symmetrical features are striking, making him stand out in a crowd of even the most aesthetically pleasing individuals. His mind is like a beaming sun, a warmth that Spock has missed on this cooler planet, pulling him in with all of its promising radiance.

When Jim smiles at Stalek, however, it is his heart and his love that make Jim the most beautiful Human that Spock has ever encountered.
Author's Notes: Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, I finally posted it. Dies. I never thought that I could write a fic this big in one go! Because I have an unhealthy obsession of turning everything I've ever watched into fanfiction, it's based on this Thai advertisement about female beauty and strength, called My Beautiful Woman. "Wacoal believes that are women were created to be beautiful," is the message of the company, WacoalThailand. Watch it right now if you haven't, and bring a tissue box. I cry every time without fail. Oh my god, I just watched it before posting this, and now I'm in tears. Again.

Thanks so much to LarielAris for beta-ing this fic and mentioning how cute it is! I really hope it is cute for the rest of you, and touching as well.

Pairing: Spirk (Kirk/Spock)
Word Count: 1,592
Summary: During the stay of Mudd and his women aboard the Enterprise, Kirk and Spock unintentionally learn something about one another.
Author's Notes: Finally! My first Spirk fic is up! Yesyesyesyesyesyesyes I have finally gotten around to writing for my OTP! I can now die happy. (Though I really can't, because I have so many more prompts and AU's to fill.) Spock's hilarious expressions of "you illogical Humans" throughout the whole episode really got to me, and this is what should have happened afterward.
Thanks to Tawni for beta-ing my fic and enjoying it!

Author's Notes: Thanks to Tawni for beta-ing my work once again, and for her kind words of appreciation!
This is written for the Day 4 prompt for Team Arthur of the BBC Merlin Fest on Tumblr. Favorite pairing: it can be canon or not, cracky even, but no crossovers.

Pairing: Durincest (Fíli/Kíli)
Word Count: 3,410
Summary: "I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close." - Pablo Nerud
Author's Notes: This is based on the gay short film Raw Love, which completely shattered my heart. I followed the dialogue closely. Make sure to watch it!
Thanks to my beta, Sage!

Author's Notes: Yes! I finished. I sincerely thank anyone who has taken the time to read this. I hope I made you love Tauriel and Kíliel just a little bit more. Any comments are welcome!
I would like to thank my beta, Thrandildo, once again, because she really is awesome for betaing for me, despite her personal opinions about this fic. Thanks, Bela!
Stay tuned for more fics coming starting next weekend!

Author's Notes: Someone's gone the Tonya Harding level of crazy, huh? I wonder who it is!
Thanks so much to by beta, StarlitTauriel, who will possibly no longer beta for me for the next two or so chapters that I post, because of how busy she is. If you like my work so far, really, it's probably because she was able to help pull my writing of despair.

Author's Notes: How is this for a change in style, guys? I have to say, Mad_Lori's works within the Performance in a Leading Role, the ones that consist of interviews that John and Sherlock attend, are what inspired me to write a chapter such as this.
Dianne de Leeuw is a Dutch silver Olympic medalist for figure skating. Sjoukje Dijkstra is a gold Olympic medalist, a five-time European Championship gold medalist, and a three-time World Championship gold medalist.
Thanks so much to my beta, StarlitTauriel, for reading my work and supporting it!

Author's Notes: Hey, readers! I'm back! The next few chapters are already written, and I will be posting them as soon as I can. If you have noticed, I have slightly altered Balin's role in the story. I changed some of the previous chapters in relation to this to help eliminate discontinuities.
There are several international competitions, in which many figure skaters of Olympic standards annually compete. They include the Grand Prix Final, the Four Continents Championships, the World Championships (or Worlds), and the European Championships. Jaap Edenbann is the skating rink that was used in the winter olympics, when they were held in the Netherlands, and EKIJSA is a real figure skating club in the country. The Dutch Figure Skating Championships (or nationals) are not actually in January, but I used the idea of the nationals of the United States for the purpose of timing in the story.
Thank you so much to my amazing and wonderful and lovely beta, StarlitTauriel! Without her, I would probably never be coherent. Also, her constant support, patience, and love helps me find confidence in my writing.

Author's Notes: Hey, readers! I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I am personally quite in love with it. Aren't Kíli and Tauriel absolutely adorable? Poor Tauriel, though. I bet she so wished to have fallen in love with that six foot tall prince. Yet destiny has a mind of it's own.
If you have noticed, I have actually changed the setting to the Netherlands, because Amsterdam was a location that I wanted to use, and yet I totally thought it was in Denmark! I literally - okay, look: Danish, Denmark; Dutch, the Netherlands, Holland? How the hell am I supposed to remember any of that? But anyways, thank you for coping, and I'm sorry if you're upset with the slight discontinuity.
I researched a bit of Amsterdam trivia. Tourist attractions I found here; the weather I found here; and about the ice skating I read here.
The piece to which Kíli was skating is "Time to Say Goodbye" by Sarah Brightman and Andrea Bocelli. You can see the video that inspired Kíli's motions and listen to the song here.
A swallow is a type of bird commonly noted in the Russian background, and it's long tail gives the camel spin, a popular spin in figure skating, it's name in Russian. When Tauriel mentions Kíli to look like a swallow, she is probably seeing him do the camel spin, right?
Also, even though Tauriel does not express her thoughts in figure skating terminology, because she is not a professional figure skater herself, I used this to guide me through which motions are which, and I will be using it in Kíli's chapters.
Next week, I won't be posting a chapter, because I'll be writing a Johnlock Valentine's Day fic as a Secret Valentine gift. Please check it out? I will love you forever!
Thanks again to my beta, StarlitTauriel!
