Kirk/Chapel Stories

Kirk/Chapel Prime (the series that started it all):

2003 Golden Os First Place Best TOS Kirk/Chapel Story	2002 ASC Awards First Place Best Original Series Kirk Pairing

Like We Never Had A Broken Heart (R)   -   This story was inspired by a scene in the Carter Series story "Bridges," but you don't have to have read that story to enjoy this. Set just before ST:TMP. This was a dark time in Kirk's life.

A Particular Pain (R)   -   A follow-on to "Like We Never Had a Broken Heart." For those who would have liked the ending to go a bit differently. Set during ST:TMP, this is Kirk at his most darkly obsessed.

Living in Ashes (R)   -   It's the first mission after V-Ger for Kirk and Chapel and they have a new relationship to get used to, and friends to work out some problems with.

Claiming Happiness (R)   -   Kirk and Chapel try to find happness among a crew who seem to have problems of their own.

The Angst Series (Warning: Some of these stories deal with mature themes)

First, Do No Harm (R)   -   During the 5YM. For McCoy and Chapel, shore leave is for pretending. (This isn't Kirk/Chapel but it does set up the rest of the series.)

Dregs (PG-13)   -   Post-WoK. Spock is dead. What if you're the one left behind?

Embers (PG-13)   -   Post-STV. They shared their pain, but then fate intervened. Now that everything is back to normal--or nearly so--is there anything left for Kirk and Chapel?

2004 Golden Os - Second Place Best TOS McCoy/Chapel Story
Physician, Heal Thyself (PG-13)   -   Post-STV. So what does McCoy think of Kirk and Chapel's relationship?

Never and Always Touching and Touched (R)   -   Post-STV. Spock has a secret.

2004 Golden Os - First Place Best Kirk/Chapel Story
Bargains in the Dead of Mind (PG-13)   -   Post-STV. Chapel's take on her relationships with Kirk, Spock, and McCoy.

Button, Button (PG-13)   -   Some stories are so strange you don't know where they come from. This is one of them.

Closing Time (PG-13)   -   Because sometimes life happens after hours.

2005 Golden Os - First Place Best TOS Kirk/Female Story
Collide on Dry Land (R)   -   Some storms come on suddenly. Some build up over time.

2003 Golden Os - Second Place Best TOS Kirk/Chapel Story
Divine Torture (PG-13)   -   Humor. First contact was never supposed to be like this.

It's All About Survival (PG-13)   -   People connect in all sorts of ways.

2003 Golden Os - Third Place Best TOS Novel
Mazes of a Nightmare (R)   -   Where does a nightmare end and reality begin? This is hurt-comfort, but much more than that too. My muse got ambitious with this one. If you like TOS, and Kirk, give it a try.

The Morning After (R)   -   There's always a morning after. Some of them are more important than others.

Motivational Maneuvers (PG-13)   -   Is there anything worse than mandatory training? Only if it's a motivational seminar--that's not motivational. Fortunately, if the company is good, you're not so bad off. I've been to wayyyy too many of these, I think.

Not in the Nest (R)   -   Set right after ST;TMP, a fling on Earth is very different from a romance with a crewmember.

2004 Golden Os - First Place Best TOS Series or Suite
The Occupations Series - Chapel through her various occupations (This one tracks canon.)

Parallels and Intersections (PG-13)   -   Sometimes lives don't touch so much as run alongside--other times they take a detour.

The Path Not Taken (R)   -   This is set after STVI. It's a little different take on things, I think.

2003 Golden Os - Third Place Best TOS Kirk/Chapel Story
Plato's Gift (R)   -   There are some unexpected aftereffects from the run-in with the Platonians.

Siren's Song (R)   -   A magical island brings two hurt people together. A solstice story.

Snowflakes (PG-13)   -   Blame this on the snow. It made me silly.

Strange Bedfellows (R)   -   A landing party on a deserted planet goes awry...again.

2006 Golden Os Second Place Best TOS Kirk/Chapel	2006 Golden Os Third Place Best TOS Het Vignette I have no idea why "Tender, Loving Care" won for vignette--it's a 6,600-word short story

Tender, Loving Care (PG-13)   -   You've been hurt, but she's there.

Thar She Blows! (PG-13)   -   It's fun to hang with the guy who's just traveled through time, brought back two humpback whales, and saved the Earth and everyone on it. Just fun. Right? Sorta light, sorta not. Set after STIV and during/after STV.

Under Duress (R)   -   This is a new Kirk/Spock/Chapel, unrelated to the ongoing series. I felt like twisting them in a new way.

Unlucky in Love (R)   -   A slighty different Kirk/Chapel. A romance that's not romantic, as one person put it, and I like that idea.

Urges (R)   -   A routine landing party leads to some strange behavior. This one is out there.

2006 Golden Os - Third Place Best Overall Novella
Waltzing with the Muses (R)   -   Life unfolds in unexpected way. Life follows patterns. Sometimes, life does both. Takes place a year after the 2nd through 5th movies.

Welcome Home (PG-13)   -   I think it might possibly be one of the signs of the end days when I write something this fluffy. Oh well. It's a literary exercise--a story of only dialogue.

2005 Golden Os - Second Place Best Overall Vignette
Witness (PG-13)   -   Sometimes you just have to watch. This is dark.

The "Three's Apparently Not a Crowd" Stories (Warning: These deal with mature themes)

2003 Golden Os First Place TOS Kirk/Spock/Chapel Story	2003 Golden Os Second Place Best TOS Group Story

Forgotten (R)   -   Stranded and apparently forgotten on a frozen world, three crewmates learn to survive. Kirk/Spock/Chapel. Yes, I've succumbed.

2003 Golden Os - Second Place Best TOS Kirk/Spock/Chapel Story
Remembered (R)   -   Sequel to Forgotten. What happens when you come back home? Kirk/Spock/Chapel.

Man and Man and Wife (R)   -   Our intrepid threesome explores a new frontier: getting married. With apologies to: "Father of the Bride," "The Wedding Planner," "Romancing the Stone," "Summer Lovers," and "Murphy's Romance." No weddings or wedding planners were harmed in the making of this story. The use of illegal substances is not encouraged. Professional fictional characters at work: Do Not Try This at Home.

2004 Golden Os - Second Place Best TOS Kirk/Spock/Chapel Story/Best TOS Humor or Parody
And V'Ger Makes Four (R)   -   The threesome takes on Star Trek: The Motion Picture. This follows on the heels of "Man and Man and Wife."

Still Life in Triplicate (R)   -   Because I missed these three. And because life isn't always about the big moments. Sequel to "And V'Ger Makes Four."

2004 Golden Os Second Place Best TOS Group Vignette	2004 Golden Os Third Place Best TOS Kirk/Spock/Chapel Story

Beloved (R)   -   This is a short sequel to Revenant and it's K/S/Ch for those who need a warning. But you don't have to have read the Occupations Series to get this. And really, this isn't in the same tense or the same tone or with the same POV character, so maybe it's better if you haven't read it? Suffice it to say, Kirk and Chapel are dead and living happily together when the story begins. This is for those who like their romances in threes.

No Such Thing as Goodbye (PG-13)   -   A vignette from the Kirk/Chapel prime series mostly likely. After ST:WOK.

Re-Released (R)   -   Go over to the Slayer Series page for this and other stories in the Slayer Turned series.

Returning Heroes (R)   -   I was watching STVI-The Undiscovered Country, and began to wonder, what if Chapel and Kirk had been involved at the time...and she was back on Earth during those events. This is my answer. It's plenty angsty--and I've been told very hot.

Right Side Out Again (R)   -   What if the beam-out in Inside Out (you can find that on Carter Series page) hadn't worked?

A Trip Through the Multiverse (R)   -   You've read everything Kirk/Chapel on this site. You see the K/Ch ship wherever you look now. You are, in a word, gone on these two. This story is for you. I got lonely for all the various K/Ch incarnations. See if you can figure out who is who. .

What Might Have Been (PG-13)   -   Prelude to "Emotional Rescue" (you can find that on the Spock/Chapel page). For those who wondered what "delightful" really meant.
