“Let Me Help (You Get Through Classic Lit)”
My piece for the AOSR Zine, 2023! @aosrenaissance
When you are dyslexic, a ‘stack of books with legs’ is a logical partner. Kirk thinks the most romantic sentence in the English language is "Let me help”, but Spock knows it is “Let me read to you”... even if he has a habit of falling asleep.

the @aosrenaissance theme run gave me an excuse to finish this long abandoned wip and draw some old timey western clothes— here’s cowboy jim kirk and his friend who would rather pet horses than wrangle cattle
[ID: An illustration of Kirk and Spock from Star Trek dressed in Western clothes. Kirk wears a gold vest and a cowboy hat, while Spock wears a blue vest and a gambler hat. They exchange glances while smiling softly. The background is desert sunset that has blanketed everything in a soft, orange glow. /end ID]

You should read AOSR because it's really good and also free
I can't stick to my usual titling scheme because this zine is genuinely good and I want you to read it.
AOS Renaissance (or AOSR for short) is a digital zine published earlier this week (8.3.2023) (there goes my plan to do these reviews chronologically) to celebrate the 14th anniversary of Star Trek (2009) and is free to download here. Some of the works are also available on AO3, and I'll link to those individually so you can leave nice comments, but I do recommend reading the zine as a whole. The art in it is stunning, and I personally really like that zines are collected and curated in a way that works online generally aren't.
Disclaimer: as usual, this review is entirely my opinion.
We Hold Each Other Tonight, Eyes Full of Constellations
by spidey_kirk
Jim thinks he and Spock are dating but taking it slow, but Spock is beating himself up pining for Jim, thinking he only wants to be friends. What a great premise, I love fics like these! My only gripe is a lack of breaks between time skips which made it a little confusing at times. 4/5
Whiteout
by Bradley Martin
A little weird to see a Christmas fic published in the middle of May but I'm not complaining because it is CUTE. Considering the usual contents on this blog you might be surprised to hear how much I love McKirk, since I tend to keep it on the DL, but I'm so so soft for them, and this fic perfectly encapsulates why. I love it. 5/5
The Way Their Fingers Touch
by remylebae
Leonard says he's over Jim, only to ask Spock out, find out Spock and Jim are together, and realise he never actually got over Jim in the first place. Where do I even start? I love this fic so much. The pining! The way they all care so much about each other! Great fun. 5/5
Forget-me-nots
by Maria
Spock's life flashes before his eyes and we get the shortest memory loss fic I have ever read. The visuals are beautifully described and very sweet. 4.5/5
Kiss Her You Fool
by captainkaseykirk
I think this might be the first Scotty/Uhura fic I've ever read, and I don't regret that at all. I love Jim and Scotty's friendship, I love how awkward Scotty is about his crush, I love how sweet he is about Uhura and I love their first kiss. Great introduction to the ship. 5/5
Cornflowers and Peach Blossoms
by USS-Genderprise
Disclaimer: I'm biased about this one, for obvious reasons (I wrote it). A hanahaki fic in the year of our lord 2023? (That's what everybody keeps asking me) Yes. It's also major character death, but personally I think it's one of my best works. Compared to the rest of the fics in this zine, it's incredibly depressing. I do like it, though.
A Brief History of Family and Domestic Life on Starships
by spocko
I don't usually like miscommunication in fics, but this one was fun. All the different character interactions were on point, and I do love seeing Spock with a cat. 5/5
Binary Stars
by asoulofstars
How do Kirk and McCoy fall in love? Everyone's favourite oh moment, one for each of them. Very cute. 4/5
Shine A Little Brighter
by KnightAniNaberrie
I love seeing Spock grow as a person, grow in his relationships. I also love some good Spock and McCoy banter, especially when it's clearly a sign of affection. Wonderful fic. 5/5
Unwritten Rules and Regulations Excerpt
by asoulofstars
Saavik in AOS? It's more likely than you think. She keeps a running list of all the things that should not be done on the Enterprise, and shares two of her points with us. Great fun, though clearly incomplete. 4.5/5
Restorations
by stanzas
Absolutely adorable. Everyone but Jim is good with children and I am here for it. 5/5
Jealousy is a Green Blooded Alien
by QUEERTASTIC
Spock? Jealous? No way! /s. I love a good jealous Spock fic. The descriptions of his emotions were great. A little disappointed by the ending, though. 4/5
Final thoughts
Honestly, I think this might be the best zine I have read to date. Every fic was a joy to read and each piece of art was stunning. I can honestly recommend each and every story in this zine, even if I do have my favourites. You should read it! It costs you nothing! Literally!
