Star Trek XI Kink Meme
by various authors, very
NSFW
- Recommended by Ayries
- Pairing: Various (Slash, Het, Femslash)
- A kink meme for Star Trek XI. There are a good chunk of TOS related fics however. Not only has this somehow achieved upwards of five thousand comments in under two weeks, but it somehow has managed to have a very good excellent-to-poor fic ratio. Some of these authors are just amazing.
- It's currently on part fourteen and growing every day, and the excellent-to-poor ratio is, if not the same, better.
- There is a TOS specific kink meme here

Liz's Not-So-Little World
KCS
- Recommended by dedicatedfollower467
- KCS usually does one-shot and drabbles, but everything written is spot-on. The stories have an excellent grasp of canon - I'd definitely say the stuff has an Original Flavor. What's unusual about the author in many ways is that the stories don't try to set up a particular ship or even focus on a particular character - while most of it is Big Three-centered, you'll find that they range all over. Definitely enjoyable work, go check it out!
Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.
