Side Game: Dystopia

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?

Have I mentioned lately how much shit I'm going to give you when you do finally fall for someone? Because I am.

It's nothing to apologize for.

Sender: Lowther, George
Recipient: Pike, Christopher

I'm never going to fall in love. I'm immune.

It's not a desirable trait. Things take time, I know.

Sender: McCoy, Leonard
Recipient: Lowther, George

Because you get under my skin and I can't-

MESSAGE ERASED UNSENT

^___^

Sender: McCoy, Leonard
Recipient: Lowther, George

Yeah, I'm gonna stick with 'whatever'

For you maybe. I'm the one who has to put you back together if you go do crazy shit.

Sender: Rand, Janice
Recipient: Lowther, George

I'll keep that in mind.

Fine.

Sender: Pike, Christopher
Recipient: Lowther, George

No one's immune.

They do. But it's part of who you are. I don't expect it to change overnight.

Sender: Lowther, George
Recipient: McCoy, Leonard

Tell me again about the kids stealing your apples.

And you don't enjoy that?

Sender: Lowther, George
Recipient: Rand, Janice

Great.

Sender: Lowther, George
Recipient: Pike, Christopher

I am. I'm too broken to love, remember?

I just want. All the time, everything. I want.

Sender: McCoy, Leonard
Recipient: Lowther, George

Fuck off, I'm not that old.

I'm a doctor to keep people safe when they can't do it themselves, doesn't mean I enjoy seeing them beat to hell. No patients would be boring as hell but at least it'd mean they're alright.

Sender: Rand, Janice
Recipient: Lowther, George

Yeah. Thanks for the day off.

Sender: Lowther, George
Recipient: McCoy, Leonard

What are you, 35? 50?

Well then. I'll have to try and keep myself safe for you.

Sender: Pike, Christopher
Recipient: Lowther, George

No you're not. There's nothing wrong with you.

Find a way to balance it. You've managed alright so far.

Sender: Lowther, George
Recipient: Rand, Janice

We'll try again tomorrow, see if we ca get off the ground without my annoying you and you yelling at me and me losing my temper.

Also I don't know where my towel is. Can you please put a reminder on my calendar to get another?

Liar.

I know. I dreampt of McCoy all last night and I don't know why.

Sender: McCoy, Leonard
Recipient: Lowther, George

I'm 33. Try to contain your surprise.

Good.

Sender: Pike, Christopher
Recipient: Lowther, George

I mean it. There's nothing inherently wrong with you, and there's nothing you been through that you can't overcome eventually.

Because you like him and think he's pretty.

Sender: Rand, Janice
Recipient: Lowther, George

Right.

I'll get you another one before I head back to my quarters. But really, I have to wonder at what kind of person you are if you don't know where you're towel is.

your not you're

You're not much older than me, are you? Done a lot for 33, though.

Only for you, Bones.

Sender: Lowther, George
Recipient: Pike, Christopher

There's a lot inherently wrong with me. You're just not paying attention.

Normally I don't dream about people.

Sender: McCoy, Leonard
Recipient: Lowther, George

Wouldn't know, you look about 12. Mid/late twenties assume?

I don't think getting fucked in the divorce of the century counts as an accomplishment.

Don't call me that.

I figure Jocelyn's family is ~well off or ~high up or something so after the divorce McCoy pretty much had to leave Earth because they ruined his reputation/threatened him/something idk. He's been doctoring out in small/ weird places to get by since until Kirk and Pike picked him up.

Sender: Lowther, George
Recipient: Rand, Janice

Thanks, I appreciate it.

Not a very hoopy frood, that's for sure.

Sender: Rand, Janice
Recipient: Lowther, George

Yeah, well. Consider it a one time thing. I'm your yeoman, not your babysitter.

Sender: Lowther, George
Recipient: McCoy, Leonard

Late twenties, yeah. It's in my file. Big fucking day, my birthday.

I mean, you're a doctor, you got a kid, you're a pirate. Seems like a lot more than I've done.

Call you what, Bones?

Sender: Pike, Christopher
Recipient: Lowther, George

There's not. And the sooner you start accepting that the better off you'll be.

Times change.

Hey Pixy, should Pavel still be Pike's foster/adopted son in the Pokey Mans au? Since it's an au of the HSAU it's a legitimate concern.

If you get me a pic of young!Pike I can get you a shot of him and his Bulbasaur but Venusaur is too big to fit in the picture.
