I guess it was only a matter of time...

...before I felt the urge to compile thematic lists for Star Trek. I asked for stories featuring the Ancient Vulcan trope on st_ficfinder, and between some links there and my own bookmarks and searching I have now have already about twenty or so. And I find myself thinking "hm, that would be enough to be worth a thematic list." Argh.

Awesome idea!!

I'm coding it now. I'm only still pondering whether beyond the TOS/Reboot split I also ought to single out the different mechanisms by which emotional Vulcan societies are achieved, i.e. timetravel, travel to/bodyswap with parallel universes, lost Vulcan colonies and complete AUs come to mind, or whether to just lump them into one list, which would be easier for maintenance since I could add on suggestion without reading.

(Aw, that head-desking rat is so cute!)

I think one list would probably be fine, since anyone interested in that kind of story trope would probably enjoy any of those settings. (Speaking for myself here, of course.)

Yeah, also for the most part the summaries give a pretty clear picture. I just tend to over-label things when left to to my own devices, as the 5800+ tags I use in my delicious account show. *g*

(That headdesking icon actually gave me considerable trouble while drawing it, because the nose kept getting in the way, so I had to make the desk higher than a normal desk...)
