One year after leaving for Gol Spock goes into pon farr and mentally calls Kirk, who also feeling the effects, goes to him.

Originally published in 1985 in the print fanzine “First Time” #2.

“A beautiful pon farr story. While on earth, Kirk becomes aware that Spock is in need of him. Following his instincts, he travels to Vulcan and, unerringly, on to Gol where he finds Spock in pon farr. Natasha’s version of pon farr is different from most in that Spock is far from violent. He is literally helpless as a baby. The ensuing love scene is very beautiful and also a typical of most pon farr scenes. This is a gentle loving, a gentle story. And the fact that the title is taken from a poem by Leonard Nimoy somehow makes it that much better.” (x)
