I looked through the TOS tag, but never saw this fic posted. It was written in 1987 and deals with a lot of feminist issues and discussions from that time (many of which are still painfully relevant today...). I think it's really interesting to see how these characters interact and have to learn how to work together with their differing opinions and worldviews. Ithiliana on AO3 wrote an essay describing the historical context of the story and gave an in-depth synopsis (along with talking about potentially triggering aspects), if you were curious. 

I think it's definitely worth reading, both as a historical work, an inspiration to think more about feminist ideas, and simply as a good piece of literature! The characters are very well-developed and you can sufficiently see in their heads and understand where they're coming from, even if you don't agree. Also, the entire last third was emotionally devastating; I think I cried all the way through it...

Title: Demeter
Author: Jane Land
Fandom: TOS
Wordcount: 99,235
Rating: E
Characters: Christine Chapel, Spock, Nyota Uhura, Original Female Characters
Pairing(s): Christine Chapel / Spock
Warning(s): It's been a while since I read it, but there's a lot of potentially triggering content -- rape, forced drug use, drug addiction, intense fight scenes, amputations, etc.
Summary:

"When I finished Kista, I simply could not concentrate on the immediate sequel. When I tried, I came up blank, so I jumped ahead in time and tackled a question that had been bothering me.

Just how sexist is the Federation? Granted that Star Trek was unusually enlightened for the mid-sixties, there are elements of it which seem offensive in the eighties. And if we accept it as a depiction of the 23rd century, where does that leave us?"

Title: April Is Over
Pairing: Janice Rand/Christine Chapel, with James Kirk/Leonard McCoy.
Rating: NC-17
Summary: An AU set among American expats in 1920s Paris. In Janice Rand’s experience, lesbians don't fall in love, so she puts her passion into her paintings and finds physical comforts where she can. Christine Chapel, a recently divorced socialite and accomplished hostess, hopes to recapture the magic of her first love without its problems. When their best friends become a couple, bringing them much together, the two are forced to confront their assumptions about romance, which leads them to a conclusion neither had anticipated.
Warning: None needed. A romance.
Length: 28,000 words
Notes: For startrekbigbang.
Title from the F. Scott Fitzgerald story "The Sensible Thing." Dick and Nicole Diver borrowed from Tender Is the Night, also by Fitzgerald. The story of how Kirk and McCoy meet is a true one; thanks to bhanesidhe for telling it to me. And as always, very special thanks to my beta and cheerleader, ali_wildgoose.
