I do remember "Those Who Favor Fire" but that wasn't really a gift, was it? A gift to Cupcake, mebbe (going away present, lol) but from what I remember Kirk was punishing Leah and acting out because he was upset with his injuries.
I take your point, however. His jealousy is practically inescapable.
Brainthought: ya know, a lot of jealousy is rooted in insecurity. Kirk's power (and thus his security) over Leah is expressed or facilitated by, althouigh not rooted in, his physicality. So, ya know, if his strength were diminished, and his capacity for dominatory penetration was removed, wouldn't he be more insecure, and therefore more jealous?
I highly doubt it would lead to a "good day" for Leah, but a gender-swapped mirror!Kirk could be interesting. >>
