    Summary

    Jim Kirk is nine when a massacre on Tarsus IV leaves him without a family and without a home. Spock is twelve when a strange boy in the desert saves his sehlat. Families aren't born; they're made. The look in mother’s eyes at his correction remained a mystery long after the colors of the night sky and the complex patterns of distant nebulae had become translatable by means of distinct and relatively straightforward equations.

    Summary

    Prince S'chn T'gai Spock of Vulcan, engaged to Prince James Tiberius Kirk of Earth through an arrangement made by their parents many years ago, writes to his intended on the day of his birth in the interest of diplomacy. Jim is not interested in diplomacy. Though there is no precedent set for the commencement of a written correspondence begun due to these specific parameters, I will strive to maintain, to the best of my abilities and with ample preparatory research previously conducted, the appropriate level of formality between us, based on a number of factors, primarily examples of a similar nature.

    Summary

    PART I: At considerable personal risk, Spock rescues James Kirk from Orion slavers and kills Kirk's abuser during the rescue. Kirk, still traumatized, attacks Spock during a mind meld that Spock initiated. Doctor McCoy, deciding that he is too close to the two men, employs a new member of his medical team as a psychological counselor in an attempt to understand Kirk's attack. Can Kirk and Spock repair their relationship? Can Kirk forgive himself, or must he find another way to make up for his dishonor?
    PART II: Jim Kirk tries to redeem himself from his past attack on Spock by attempting to save a young street kid from another Orion slaver. Can confronting the slaver and saving others from slavery banish Jim's guilt, or must he make a further sacrifice to restore his honor?

    Conduct Unbecoming was first printed as a stand-alone zine in 1997 by Orion Press. Michele Arvizu, author. Randall Landers, publisher, and Ann Zewen, editor.
