Awesome that it's been so well received! Totally deserved; again, this is a great fic.
I can't imagine that happening if I'd written Kirk or McCoy as gay.
You know, this made me think. I've read a couple of homosexual Spocks in fanworks, but I've only found one fic that did homosexual Kirk in a way that worked for me.
My sister has never been in fandom before, but I showed a couple of episodes (and then the movies) to her a few months ago when I was visiting, and she immediately fixated on the Kirk/Spock relationship and started asking me about it. I told her a lot of people had interpreted them as being in love over the years and she was just like, "of course they are! Isn't that what the movies are about?"

So yeah, she ships it. XD
