In the world you are entering, there is a Federation. There is an Enterprise. There is even a Captain Kirk.
But in this world, they are not as you know them.
George Lowther, 27, is the captain of the pirate ship known throughout the galaxy as the Enterprise. Of course, he's not the real George Lowther, and neither was the man before him, a fellow called Chris Pike. They're in the process of trading the identity, so Pike can retire, having made his fortune. The new Lowther, real name James T. Kirk, has hired on a crew, and they're off on their first voyage, affiliated with the Federation of Interstellar Pirates.
So. How's the crew doing? And, of course, who's fucking?

I'll come to your stupid dinner.
This doesn't mean I trust you; just getting the lay of things.

Maybe.
If this is really my ship, I should know what plans are taking place on it.

You should, and you will. As soon as you start acting like this is your ship instead of like you're just test driving her.

Got my PADD back. Kid says I accidentally switched on the audio transmit when I threw it at him. Sorry about that.

No strings except that we don't let it influence our professional relationship--or however much of a professional relationship we can have on this vessel. I hope you do.

Pretty sure 'professional' is a concept half this ship doesn't understand.
