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?

Oh. Well it didn't say they were involved. Maybe they're friends who go way back despite that one is a pirate and one is a pirate hunter? And Tony wants to "capture" Chris so he can get the bounty so he can retire on it, and isn't bothered because he knows Chris will escape the minute he does?

Ok that we could do, though with Jim taking over the name there wouldn't really be a bounty since Pike wouldn't be wanted as himself. And If you'd like me to pick up someone else for Tony I'd be up for that since I'm raining on parades with my current hangups.

Well, that's true. Idk, maybe it's some elaborate plan where he's going to nab both of them as a final test for Kirk or something? Then he'd get the bounty on Lowther whichever one the officials thought it was, Chris could retire, Kirk could take over the ship on his own with some bs about how Chris didn't make it out alive and he needs a new XO, how about you, you pointy-eared weirdo, and Tony can go live on some back planet with his kids (finally), who are the only reason he wants to retire in the first place.

Eh, I'll think about it, but I don't really have anyone specific (other than Chris, but that's a given thing) that I wanna ship him with.
