CHALLENGES

• Kirk or Spock has a dirty little secret from his past that nobody knows about. If it gets out, it might threaten their career in Starfleet.

• Old challenges from earlier SBS
  Feel free to choose whatever you like.
   

• Farfalla's challenge list.
   

  1. Sex in Gol. With a happy ending. (That's why they're called 'challenges'! ;-) Hey, no one said it had to be pre-TMP...)

  2. Scotty plays matchmaker. I've never seen that, and I'm curious.

  3. Speaking of matchmakers, the het couple of your choice serve as matchmaker for Kirk and Spock. Some suggestions: Len and Tonia ( http://cosmicduckling.com/play ), Uhura and Chekov ( http://cosmicduckling.com/spirk/roseandgold ) or Uhura and Sulu, Saavik and Peter Kirk (if you like Rob Morris's pairing), etc.

  4. Kirk and Spock in a sushi restaurant. Hey, they DO have a lot of vegetarian options :-)

  5. Some crewmember invents drinks named after Kirk and Spock, and they find out about it. Somehow finding out the origin of the name of the drink and its ingredients puts the two men into a conversation that leads to one of Those First Times...

  6. It's the Ides of March today. K/S au in ancient Rome?

  7. One of the two men gets laryngitis for the day and cannot speak a word at all. Can be h/c.... FT, ER, whatever you want.

  8. Let's say Vulcans don't have much body hair. Spock's always been very sensitive about his hairy chest, inherited from his human side. Kirk makes him feel better about it. (And I love it! Ha. Only on him, though.)

  9. Fuzzy slippers.

  10. Kirk's dad *isn't really dead.* Finding him alive is a shock. Did he run from the family? Was he captured? Who finds him?
