Summary: Jim Kirk has issues with the new guy.
wishfulclicking says: I found this via f-list/google shenanigans and wow! Kirk's pov is so refreshingly funny and every time Bones pops up, the story gets even more hilarious. John Sheppard is hilarious in this and how he and Kirk interact made me grin so hard. The writer has a gift for comedy and banter. I still need to go through the rest of remixredux09 but this has made me so excited for the rest of the stories.
Excerpt:
The guy's name is Sheppard, and he was transferred here from Arizona. He'd gotten his flight wings a few years prior -- wings, by the way, that he did not hesitate to boastfully pin on his lapels every morning, polished till they shined, utterly distasteful, Jim noted -- and now he's stationed at the Academy to undergo extra command training because they're planning on promoting the guy or something, Bones was a little skimpy on the details. Point is, new guy's stealing all of Jim's thunder, and that is just not on. At the end of the year, there's gonna be one cadet at the top of the line for starship command, and that is going to be be Jim Kirk.
