Oh, wow. I too grew up on the original Trek -- and like a number of people above, had issues with slashing it even after I became a slasher myself -- and I think this is the first time that I've really gotten the pairing on a visceral level. I mean, I've always gotten the Kirk-Spock dynamic, but this is the first time I've seen why I might want to slash them, as opposed to why other people might want to.

Not to mention the fact that now you've got me craving the show itself, which I haven't watched seriously in years. And of course my tapes aren't with me right now!

(Also, by the way, what a gorgeous, gorgeous vid. I can't even quantify my love for it.)
