Fic rec: Star Trek (2009)

"Measure of a Man" by alexajohnson | Gen | Pre-movie, friendship | Jim and Bones do not have a promising beginning to their friendship. But some things are just meant to be. | ~41.000 words

Jim’s hands are shoved deep into the pockets of his uniform. “Are you—”

“Just come in, damnit,” Leonard huffs. “Unless you’re here to point and laugh.”

“God, Bones, how much of an asshole do you think I am?” Jim grouses, finally following him in and closing the door.

Leonard snorts. “On a scale of one to ten? You’re at least a fifteen. And ten ain’t the lowest.”

“Yeah, I figured that out.”

I just love the way the friendship between Kirk and Bones grows in this one. In the movie, we haven't seen what happened between the shuttle ride and the Kobayashi Maru incident and this fic is basically it.

Cote de Pablo aka Ziva David from NCIS - man, she's beautiful!





Ziva's one of my favorite female characters - if not THE favorite one - on TV these days. And Cote is just... wow, gorgeous! *_*
