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?

w00000t. Pike's probably tried to hint that it's like another pirate captain to throw Tony off the trail. Though Pike refers to One as 'That fleet bitch' most of the time which is probably less masking than he thinks it is. Pike informs me his is aware of that and will retaliate accordingly.

Well, One is going to be completely taken in by Lucy (she never had babies in this verse but kinda sorta always wanted one) so she'll be sufficiently distracted while Tony and Chris bitch at each other. (There's this scene in the Pokemon AU where Tony and Chris are squabbling and it escalades into a battle, and One just rolls her eyes and is all "here we go again" and Vinny (Gary's traveling companion) is all "are they always like this?" and One is all "yeah, ever since the first day they met. Then they end up in a draw and Number One is all "great, another draw" because apparently they never can manage a clear victory).

Is it bad that with that one phrase I think PIke and One should have babies in this verse? Also yes, there will be much bitching I'm sure. Pike will be rolling his eyes a lot.

(teeheeheeheeheeeee I'm sure, they are probably the most annoying and ridiculous of rivals. )

Only if I'm bad too; I thought the same thing while I was typing it.

(They are. Technically, all four of them were rivals once upon a time, with the stronger rivalries between Chris and Tony, and One and Mia, but One and Mia stopped being all "OMG WHO'S STRONGER?" yeeeeeeeeeeeeears ago, whereas Tony and Chris can't be in the same place without bickering and eventually having a battle that inevitably ends in a draw. Coincidentally, Chris also had a rivalry with George, and One had a very strong "GRRR, I DON'T LIKE YOU GET AWAY FROM MAH MAN BITCH" rivalry with Vina, who had a HUGE crush on Chris and was always flirting with him. Chris usually had a sort of "...okay then?" reaction to her.)

Okay they totes have to have babies on their ranch then. OMG CAN ONE BE PREGNANT?

(That's because Mia and One are ~sensible whereas Tony and Pike are gigantic children around each other. YEEEEES Pike would be so confused. But he informs me angry!One is hot so I don't think he minds.)

IDK WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME THEY WERE ~TOGETHER~?

(Yeah, their rivalry, even when it existed, was mostly just fun friends pushing each other to get stronger, which admittedly that's what Tony and Chris had, their's was just also finding out who was stronger. I'm trying to keep things as close to HSAU canon as possible, so he really didn't realize he liked her back then. Also, he was really focussed on battling and getting stronger and not so much on emotions other than "these guys are my friends and we care about each other", so he would have been clueless.)

THEY JUST CHANGED CREWS SO THERE HAD TO HAVE BEEN SOME DOWNTIME IN THE PAST THREE MONTHS WERE THEY GOT ~TOGETHER. Kirk said it's been 3 weeks on the ship so last time being about a month/month and a half back probably.

(Yep yep. Ah, understandable, then he would just have been lots of confused.)

OKAY THEN.

(Yeah, he'd have thought they were just regular rivals. And Vina kinda followed them a bit, always turning up whenever they were all in the same place and being super-sweet to Chris and not-so-much to Mia and One, who she saw as rivals. She was a bit neutral to Tony, because he was a boy and cute but not dear Christopher, which is funny cause he had a bit of a crush on her for a while.)

I WILL GIVE YOU TEN THOUSANDS INTERNETS IF AT THE END OF THE 'BITCH THERE'S A SPY' MESSAGE IS SOME FORM OF 'PS I'M KNOCKED UP'

(That sounds highly awesome and ridiculous.)

oh man Vina. Perfection.

(It is! I'm having so much fun with their adventures I keep forgetting about poor Gary.)

ALL FOR YOU BB~

(Well, at the moment I'm developing characters, and they come first because they're the most important.)

AND THAT BRINGS ME MUCH GLEE. <3 (getting to play Pike going "...I'm a daddy?" is way more exciting than it probably should be.)

(Very true. Also fun!)
