Feeling like a third wheel after Spock invites him along on his and Kirkʼs shore leave, McCoy decides to return to town from their campsite — in the only means of transportation they have.

It was first published as gen in Lone Star Trek #3 in 1991, reworked as slash for T'hy'la #26 in 2006. Cover image by T’Guess.

“According to the editor’s notes, this was originally published back in 1991 as a gen story. I have to say, now that it has been rewritten as a K/S story, it’s hard to tell such wasn’t the case to begin with. Both portions have been blended together beautifully and the final result is something that is a rarity in K/S - a story that stays with you long after you’ve read the last page. Even after all these years, there are still only a handful of stories I can place in that category, and this one definitely qualifies.” (x)
