No doubt. I always loved the slashy ST novels, but never quite made the transition to slash with them. I think they're to tied up with my childhood.
I was already thirteen when the show first aired and fell immediately in love with Spock, so sexuality, no matter how immature, has always been part of my connection with the show. Actually, it wasn't until I got into K/S that I learned to appreciate Kirk. Before that, he was sorta just there.
BTW, while we're sharing recs, you know I've made a ST vid, right? (http:przed.com/vids at the bottom of the page.)
Oh, yes! I knew about it even before I started going to your site for UNCLE, and now Pros, stuff. Someone posted the link to it on a K/S group quite awhile ago (July 2003.) Though, I assume, meant to be gen, it conveys so much of what makes their relationship, it can easily be seen as slash, too. :-)
