Why This Must Be Read: I love this pairing, I love Academyfic, I love stories that tell you about characters before we knew them and how they got where they are. This story is a love letter to Nyota Uhura, brilliant and perceptive, deeply in love, who learns one day that her life is an alternate reality. I loved writing backstory for her, I just loved writing this, period. Bonus Vulcan poetry and Interplanetary Young Adult fiction.

Summary: Gaila needs somewhere to recuperate after being injured in the Battle of Vulcan. What better place than with Spock Prime on the Vulcan colony world? Hijinx, cultural misunderstandings, and unlikely romance ensue.
Why This Must Be Read: GUYS THIS PAIRING, I LOVE THEM. I love them in a singular way, judging by the contents of the Gaila/Spock Prime tag on AO3, AND YET. They’re funny and perfect and what started as a crackfic idea somehow turned into arguably the greatest thing I ever wrote. They’re making pointy-eared green babies somewhere even as we speak. :)
(Mods, may I have a ship: gaila/spock prime tag please?)
