"Yes, sir... No, sir..." all day through...
I don't know how you can stand it!
I would think, just one time, you'd like to tell Kirk
To take his command chair and cram it!
But no, you're a Vulcan, and far above that,
Though deep down inside it may seem
If he asks for a readout just one more time,
You will have to give voice to a scream!
Yet... somehow I know that you do love your job,
And you shall, till the universe ends...
For no matter what else, it will keep you beside
Your t'hy'la, and the rest of your friends....

Jim's Song - For Racionn
I remember I told you to stay on the ship
And 'mind the store' while I was gone...
But you disobeyed orders, and gave Bones the slip,
For, some way, you knew something was wrong...
My homing device had malfunctioned somehow
With the proton bomb ready to blast...
I ran back to the shuttle, and crouched in it's bow,
And prayed death would be painless, and fast...
Then... the blast! But it merely had stunned me,
(I'm amazed that I ever lived through it...)
And I woke, being carried so effortlessly
That I knew only one who could do it...
I couldn't move, couldn't speak, and you had not
Seen my eyes open... You thought I was dead...

Nightmares
My mom was talking on the phone with one of my relatives when I got home. Which was great for me, because I was not in the mood to talk to her. She waved at me with a grin on her face, and I forced a smile to mine before waving back. I disappeared up the stairs up my room.
I flopped down on my bed, and it smelled like cow. Like dirty filthy cow that has been rolling around in Dawn Detergent. I stuck my tongue out in disgust before flipping over so I was lying on my back. It was a little better.
I rolled over onto my side, pulling at a filthy old dresser that might break if I touch it too hard. I pulled open a drawer,

The Landing Party
"I want to be on the landing party Bones!" Jim said in a pout, throwing his arms down like a three year old who couldn't get what he wanted. "Come on, won't you do it for me? Because I'm the bestest-awesomest-friend in the world?"
"See? Now that you've slept and gotten food in you, you sound more like yerself Jim." McCoy said with a pleased look on his face as he nodded at Chapel. She smiled softly before tugging at McCoy's sleeve softly. "He's back sir. He says it's urgent this time."
"Tell him to leave. It's not urgent enough."
"I've tried."
"Try again."
With this, Chapel nodded her head softly, before sm

King? Compassion. You? Compassion no.
"Incoming transmition Commander. It's from Starfleet."
"Put it on the screen Lieutenant."
The screen buzzed to life, and the Bridge crew was welcomed by the face of Admiral Christopher Pike. Said man was smiling, before a frown fell upon his slightly wrinkled features. "Where is Kirk?"
The Vulcan who was sitting as he replacement didn't bat an eyelash. "He is at the Medical Bay for his yearly check up." The whole Bridge crew knew that was a lie however, because only twenty minutes earlier, Jim had barfed up blood again and fallen unconscious. The scene involved a lot of blood, and said blo

Emotionally Compromised
"I can't believe you've been carrying that thing around for a whole month already."
"I didn't know I harbored this baby before two weeks ago Bones, it's not a big deal."
"You tell anyone yet?"
"Yeah right, get super weird looks or anything? I'd be spoken about all the time, people guessing who banged me, if I liked it or not, if I'm even seeing him."
"You're not."
"They won't believe me."
McCoy rolled his eyes before pressing down softly on Jim's stomach, which was slightly extended already. It was weird, and the doctor was worrying, and Jim was just telling him to shut up. Once he was done mas
