sonia | Stories! Different angles on friendship

paranoidangel . "When young Spock needs a friend, T'Pol is there." Content note for bullying children at the beginning. Otherwise a lovely gentle story about relating and growing. I... didn't know or had forgotten or had blocked out that Spock was half-human. Vulcan blood is green, no? It doesn't seem likely humans and Vulcans would produce viable offspring. via

The Queen Sent Messengers by

sallyislike . "This is the third day since you sent us out to search for a name." This is a beautifully crafted fairy tale retelling, and an uneasy read. It says something important about power and duty and love, even if I don't like the ending. via

The Giant in the Cavern Brings Copper and Silver and Gold by Dira Sudis (

dsudis ). "Every time the dragon takes a penny, the giant supplies another one." Content note for threatened domestic violence. Building trust, defending a friend.

That story is based on The Thing In the Walls Wants Your Small Change by Virginia M Mohlere. Even more content notes for domestic violence, mostly averted. Also warmth and friendship.
