"Asymmetry" by canis_takahari | Kirk/McCoy | H/c, humor | Leonard McCoy has already been through the dorm room politics, the awkward drunken nights, the pain and fear and grief; he didn’t expect to have to start his life over again, but Jim Kirk is making sure he does it right this time. | 9.200 words

Sometimes Jim is like an overgrown barnacle, or limpet, flinging himself at helpless bodies and clinging on tight, and he’s doing it now, having thumped into McCoy from behind and flung an arm around his throat. McCoy securely in a headlock, Jim leans forward, using his weight, and McCoy chokes. It takes him a moment’s wriggling, but he manages to worm his elbow into Jim’s stomach.

They end up on the floor, wrestling like little boys, Jim’s laughter loud and bright and ringing like a bell, McCoy choking out guffaws as he struggles to get his breath back.

Damn kids.

Kirk/McCoy is the only pairing that I like in the ST 2009 fandom. Nothing else works for me. And this fic is simply awesome. Both Bones and Jim are so in-character, they are men and they behave like men - or, well, drunk frat boys - the fic is funny and touching but not mushy. And did I mention it's awesome?
