Description Side by side we are,

In step, perfect rhythm.

We follow the path before us.

Our destination unsure.

But side by side we remain.

To witness the beauty.

To gain strength from despair.

We are never out of sync.

Our gait unchanged.

Heading for home.

I like this a lot! I really feel like it describes their relationship, with its ups and downs, very well. And the beauty of their union is precisely this: that they are always so together. They even think alike, despite their differences. Yes, I really like this.

I only have one, teeny little comment, and this is just a matter of preference, but I would have liked "uncertain" instead of "unsure". I feel like it would give the verse line a more flowing, rythmic quality.

Nice job!

Thanks my friend..I believe you are right...hope you are doing well....after coming back from your cruise and dealing with the events in your country must have been shocking...looking forward to your next chapter when you feel up to it...

Yes, it wasn't easy, for any of us. I've been very lucky that all my friends and family are ok, but it's still a horrible, horrible tragedy. My comfort is that my country is handling it so well, advocating for love and understanding instead of hate and revenge.

As for Chapter 10, it's ready! I just wasn't really in the writing mood when I got back, but it's pretty much finished now. I was planning on posting it this evening, actually.

Thanks for your kind words.

Chapter 10 is now up. I hope you enjoy it (and that you won't hate me too much after reading it).

Yep, funny that Starfleet Command is located in SF, according to fanon and canon, along the Presidio...love the colorizing in this image, and the poem is spot-on! Great work, and you have to know that STIV:TVH is one of my absolute faves of the six TOS films...the other one being of course STVI...

This one is just grand!

Aww. Side by side in gay San Francisco! That is very lovely. I really like the image, by the way - just perfect for it!
