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?

Doesn't seem as if most of us are. Seems like the majority of this crew is new to pirating. Not necessarily illicit activity in general, but just about everyone I've spoken to has never operated on this level. Maybe. Think they'd know anything?

I'll keep that in mind. Thank you.

Most of them seem to know what they're doing though. I don't know, they're a better bet at least I figure.

You're right.
Anything else you need before I head back to my quarters?

No, that's all I got.

For the record, the threesome was Chapel's idea. Not mine. I told you I wouldn't pressure you and I won't.

She was a bit keen on it. I'll take your word on it I suppose.

Sorry. I can send you our comms if you want them. Also Rand might ask you for medical records. It's fine to give them to her.

Christ, I'm not gonna bite your head off over it. I don't care that much. She did, I gave her the allergy list, figure if she's your yeoman the more she knows about that the less I'll have to deal with you reacting to shit.

Are you done ignoring me now?
no subject
Date: 2010-06-04 02:37 am (UTC)Also, if you wanna do shit with Number One I'm game. Just give me a run-down. Also, does Tony know about her, and is she in on The Plan?

Well, seeing as I haven't been actively blocking you for awhile now, one would normally assume the answer to be 'no'.

But I want to talk to you. I'm lonely and the triplets are useless conversation partners.

We have to work together, I want you to know that I'm not going to do anything to ruin my crew.
Fair enough. So you know- Boyce, our last doctor, was formulating a nutritional supplement for me, but there was something in it that I reacted poorly to. We don't know what. If you have down time, it's in the records.

Pretty words but I like proof more. Look, I told you I'm not gonna run and I'm giving you the damned benefit of a doubt until I've seen more.
Alright, I'l look it over. Once I get a handle on it I'll have you in and probably test some things.
no subject

Proof takes time. You and I both know that.
No rush. Unlike other pirates I can name, I don't have much chance of getting scurvy.

Date: 2010-06-04 03:12 am (UTC)But Pixy, I'm still waiting for McCoy to realize that George Lowther was an 18th century English pirate.

Why I agreed to stay the year.
Heh, well it's something to keep me busy. Wouldn't mind the challenge.

Damn. I was distracted. That should say yes. The sentence doesn't even make sense the that way, you should have realized.

Sometimes you say things that don't make sense. I was assuming that no meant no.

You don't make sense. You're not 18 with a girl in your bed; you can occasionally second guess a no.

Not always. Also, entertain me I am bored.
