Side Game: Dystopia

[http://users.livejournal.com/_samalander/]

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?

About work, about this ship. I think I'm underutilizing you, and want to talk about your career goals.

Nope. You are totally utilizing me to my fullest potential. And my sole career goal is to be your personal coffee bitch. Speaking of which, I'll just go and get some now. How do you take yours?

Yeah she's a bit skittish. Rousing McKenna and I'm pulling up her signature to follow.

That's fair enough. I won't try to run on you.

Terribly sorry. I must have misunderstood you earlier. That's okay. This headache is just awful. I'm going to pop down to the medbay and get something for it.

Thanks. I'm trying to get her in my office. If I get her here, to calm her down, I'm thinking hot chocolate and a chat. Any input?

Thank you. Keep us informed.

Welcome, they're on it. Heh, good luck. Worth a shot, engage her and find a way to make her feel safe that's the key.

Thanks, but that's okay. I wouldn't want to impose on you. I'm sure you're very busy.

Cut the shit, Rand. What's really up and why are you trying to run?

[(Anonymous)]

Sender: Rand, Janice
Recipient: Lowther, George

I'm not trying to run. I'm just trying to get something for my head. Relax.

Okay. Sickbay. After you're there, my office. Please.

Great.

Let me know when Rand arrives down there, please. She's claiming a headache.

She's claiming sickbay. Where is she really headed?

[(Anonymous)]

Sender: McCoy, Leonard
Recipient: Lowther, George

Alright, I'll keep an eye out.

[(Anonymous)]

Sender: Pike, Christopher
Recipient: Lowther, George

Not sickbay I can tell you that.

I think she's going for the shuttlebay. Still a bit of a ways off, but that's the most likely.

Sender: Lowther, George
Recipient: Pike, Christopher

Well. I think it's time for a shuttle drill, don't you?
