[info]kayliemalinza (eventually) asked me about Star Trek: Reboot Still bitter, I see.
+OTP: Kirk/McCoy! Plays right into all my buddy!slash weaknesses – they’re argumentative and frustrate each other but stick by one another and spend most of their time together, getting each other more than anybody else. They express affection in odd ways. They’re a pairing of a wilder, more out-there partner with a more grounded partner who’s unfazed by their weirdness. Oh wowwwwww. Button/nose, thou art hit. Buddy!Slash is one of my favorite things-- it takes precedence over FoeYay, in fact-- and the particular archetypal pairing you describe is a big favorite, too (although it's even more fun when the supposedly normal partner has plenty of oddities himself. Did I ever make you watch Big Wolf on Campus?)
Also Kirk/Pike, because I simply can’t pass up a senior/subordinate father/son-with-complications relationship. *has similar thots* Granted, my thoughts are likely to be more kinky than yours (not Daddy!Kink, ironically; it squicks me), but I think we're generally on the same wavelength. :D
Gaila/McCoy (GAILA LIVES) GAILA/EVERYONE! I <3 her so much. She's so... benign? I want to say "wholesome" but that seems incredibly inappropriate. Emotionally wholesome, I suppose, if not sexually. P.S. Gaila/Pike is interesting, too. In fact, there's canon evidence that Pike has a thing for Orions. ^^
I CLAIM INDIRECT CREDIT FOR JO/CHEKOV, BTW. JUST 'CAUSE I'M GREEDY LIKE THAT.

i'm so happy you're propagating that phrase, btw
