startrek_diary"Since the days of the first wooden vessels, all ship masters have had one happy privilege: that of uniting two people in the bonds of matrimony."
In TOS, Kirk was happy to marry two of his crewmen. In TNG, when Keiko and O'Brien were getting married, Data worried about finding a gift. So it's not unheard of for crewmen to marry.
Three years into the voyage, after the Narada, two crewmembers, Hikaru Sulu and Pavel Chekov, have decided to take the plunge.
The whole ship is a buzz.
In order to officiate well, Kirk did some researching and found something very, very strange. In the wake of the whole world-saving gig, the crew has become... famous. They're being written about. And not always in flattering ways. In fact, they seem to have developed a fandom.
Of course, no one can contain their curiosity.
So people are sending around snippets of fanfic- from awful to awesome, from G to triple-X.
So- who is shocked by who they're shipped with? Who was a secret member of fandom when they were younger? And who is still writing?
And in the end, do Sulu and Chekov pull it off, or do they decide there's a better ship for them?
Thanks to Bubbles for the inspiration.

It would appear that there are those who believe our relationship to be more than simply that of crewmates.

Hikaru, have you chosen your dress yet? What does it look like?
Excerpt: Logical
Date: 2010-05-19 12:36 am (UTC)Spock considered this for a moment. After a while, he said "Because it is logical."
McCoy grinned and kissed Spock gently. "I love you too, you pointy eared hobgoblin," he said with a laugh.

Sir, I have attached the forms that you will need to sign before the wedding.

"McCoy ran his fingers over delicate point of his CO's ear, feeling the familiar shiver rush along his spine at the HEAT of the other man."

It is very strange. As chief medical officer, I am not actually your CO in many matters.

I don't care how much I lost that bet, I'm not wearing a dress.
I love you, but, no.

Apologies, our messages crossed. No, I did not. I discovered it while perusing the IntergalacticWeb for a suitable wedding gift for Lieutenant Sulu and Ensign Chekov.

OMG, have you SEEN this stuff? Half of it was OBVS written by someone with NO experience whatsoever and a lot of the rest of it is SOOO silly, but some of it's really fun!

But Hikaru, is tradition in Russia for bride to wear dress! Obviously I am not the bride, after what has occurred in our bed.

What.
There are people writing that? About us?

Have you heard? Apparently being my assistant chief means that we're banging on a nightly basis.

So it would seem. There is in fact a whole plethora of these "fanfic" on the IntergalacticWeb.

Yes, of course.
What time were we meeting? And what were we doing?
Also apparently there are people writing stories about me "swalling the chief's turgid member." Yes. Swalling. I think they type with one hand?

It's absurd. I may be single, but you're not. Actually, that's not the half of it. Have a look.

1900.
"Swalling" huh? Well I don't know about the chief, but you are more than welcome to swall my turgid member anytime you want.

This isn't about Russian tradition. You just want easy access. Regardless, I don't have the legs for it.
Also, I'm not freaking out, but it's really weird to think we'll be married in twenty four hours. Good weird, though. Can I see you today or is there another Russian tradition which I can't break?

Please stop showing me this. I have never put.
Spock, why are you reading this? Isn't porn illogical?

Then you will have to wear a long one.
Hikaru, it is bad luck to see the bride before the wedding. I cannot see you for the next twenty-four hours. It would curse our wedding more cruelly than an elderly Sicilian woman.

Roger, what would Caroline say? You two've only been married a few months.

I am not actually reading it. I was merely showing you the extent of the archive so that you would be informed.
There is another archive as well, intended specifically for lower-rated work.
