1. rubynye wrote a story where Winona essentially sent George to Cadet Pike on the night before their wedding. I read it. It was all over from there. 2. George's death. George is very much the center of that pairing, as much as the other two do love each other; he's the hub on which the wheel turns. 3. I think I like relationships with two wild and crazy assholes and one stabilizing force? Because one wild and crazy asshole is just not enough. Uhh. 4. The fact that they are all doomed. :( 5. Pike and Jim and the bar scene. Well, not exactly that it hadn't happened; I wish that Winona had been mentioned, too, though, and tied into Jim's arc. She didn't have to be off-screen, but I would have liked Jim to be more than his father's son, and for that to have been acknowledged. 6. Number One.
...8D Okay except George. George I am hard-pressed seeing with any-- oh okay well I kind of ship ectoplasmic George/Amanda/Mandana, does that count. 7. hggggh uh basically TOS, I suppose. But Pike doesn't get fried. And they live on a pig farm.
1. I was shipping them casually from their scene together in the movie on, but I think zvi_likes_tv's remix of igrockspock's "Whore" was what made me really want to write them myself. Not that I've done a very good job of following up on that, but. 2. Communication, hurr. I think the trouble is that Uhura comes to grips with Gaila's more superficially alien qualities pretty easily and early on in their relationship, and doesn't realize that there are other, major differences they have to deal with, down deep; things that have to do with their respective species, and things that have to do with the lives they've lived. 3. so hot hnnngh Romantic friendships; I do like them. I also like the hint of antagonism, and the whole... interspecies thing, which is I guess a magnification of that process of revelation and exploration that every relationship is. 4. I can't see them lasting, but I'd also love to think of them as old ladies complaining together on a porch somewhere after their vessel crashlanded. Again. And with a hot, slightly bruised

But yeah, George is the hub on which their wheel turns. More on this when I do my version of this meme!
