obstinatrixWhat the hell? I'm at work for the next four hours and I will undoubtedly be very bored very soon. So, from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Pick a paragraph (or any passage less than 500 words) from any story I've written, and comment to this post with that selection. I will then give you a DVD commentary on that snippet: what I was thinking when I wrote it, why I wrote it in the first place, what's going on in the character's heads, why I chose certain words, what this moment means in the context of the rest of the fic, lots of awful puns, and anything else that you'd expect to find on a DVD commentary track.
Annnnnnnd go.
Sadly, I doubt I can get away with writing Shatnoy porn at work, even though I want to.

"Spock carried his soul in that voice which just bled from dry lips; expended itself like an echo; like residual dirt. Bones is a shadow of himself, and the shadow of Spock rises under Kirk's hands. He cannot want this, not this man, the wrong man, in his arms; the mockery of that voice tumbling out of McCoy sets nausea ablaze in his stomach. His mind is a void, all but for the severed link screaming, a buzz like tinnitus that shrieks when he wanders too near. If Spock were here, he would soothe it, kiss it; lick at the wound like a cat till the pain disappeared. If Spock were here, surely - surely - then Kirk would know first.
There are, on a starship, no days or nights; no new mornings. McCoy's room is dark, but the darkness means nothing at all. Kirk holds his friend to him, because there is no-one else to hold. The stump of the link in his mind bleeds out his loneliness, his anger, and he thumbs it like a child with a loose tooth, because the pain, at least, is certain. This is you, Spock. This is the place where I lost you.
He is almost glad that there will be no real mornings, without him."
Might have to nick this meme, actually. :P
