ceitfianna: (Star Trek dare to dream)
[personal profile] ceitfianna
Well I finished the short story I was working on and its interesting, its one of the longest ones that I've written in a while and I'm pretty happy with it.

Many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] wordsthatfail for helping me clean it up and [livejournal.com profile] doihearawaltz and [livejournal.com profile] walksbyherself along with the Kirk who goes by [livejournal.com profile] boldygoes, sadly I don't remember how to spell her mun journal properly.

I don't own Trek or Changeling but I hope you all enjoy it and maybe now I'll do some more writing in the midst of my packing and prepping for Michigan.



He keeps muttering as he was looking over his scanner thing, Tiwa can’t bend her head enough to actually see what’s on it,

“Look, it’s just cold iron. Did you hear me?”
With another grumble he looks over to her, “You don’t make sense.”

“I know that. Can I actually go somewhere else now?”

“No, you’re, you’re odd and staying here. I’m not having you off getting into trouble on this ship.”

Then he wanders off to cross reference things and Tiwa sighs and leans back on the oddly comfortable bed thing. Next to her, a woman about her size is apparently recovering from something since her uniform is folded up neatly by her side.

She grins and makes sure that Bones is fully occupied with his machines which he is, Starfleet medicine doesn’t know how to classify kind of human but mainly Fae then grabs the uniform and with a touch of magic changes into it. It’s a nice color, sort of like parts of James’ tie, the stripes at least so she heads down a corridor, doing her best of course I belong here impression.

The Enterprise is huge and Tiwa just keeps nodding at people as she keeps going up, she always goes up if there’s an option since that’s how you get the best view. Finally she can’t get any higher and when the door opens she spots Kirk, with a quick chirp, she ducks back in and presses the down button. As the shutting door whooshes, Kirk and Sulu look up and then shrug, there are other things to think about.

Once she’s far from the bridge, Tiwa finds her way to the mess hall, her mother taught her a lot about how to find food and if you can find people eating you can learn things. By the time Bones finally finds her and is sputtering with held-in curse words, she’s surrounded by a small group of guys talking about rugby and other sports while eating some kind of terrifying looking snacks. When they see Bones approaching, the various ensigns and one poor lieutenant all salute and flee, each shooting Tiwa a quick glance on their way out, “Where have you been!?”

“Here, you were busy.”

“I never told you that you were cleared to leave. Just come on before things get worse.”

At that Tiwa just gives him a long-suffering look and follows him back towards the sick bay. After another rather long round of Bones not learning anything new, she finally convinces him that food might be a good idea. He does not want to take her back to the mess but there are only so many places to eat on the ship so this time he just keeps watch over her.
Tiwa doesn’t sigh but she does her best to be nice and not cause trouble though when Kirk walks in and spots her with Bones, her smile is many shades of innocence as Bones just glares.
“What’s she doing here?”

Bones starts to explain but Tiwa chirps in, “I’m being checked out properly though really just making him curse more.”

Kirk opens his mouth and then laughs, “Cursing’s good for you sometimes.”

“Is not, be quiet, Jim, she’s just causin’ trouble. Swear she’s bad as you sometimes.”

“Don’t like being nagged and you know that you can’t explain it, better to just give up and give me the proper tour.”

“Haven’t given her a tour, Bones? Oh that’s a shame. I can show you around, Tiwa.”

The glare Bones gives Kirk should melt the part of the ship behind him as Tiwa just laughs,
“No worries, I’ll get a good tour, sure of it.”

With a cheerful beeping that makes Tiwa grin far too much, Bones’ communicator goes off and he opens it up and gives them both a look,
“Stay here.”

It’s hard to hear through the grumbling but he just sighs and points at Kirk,
“No causin’ trouble, either of you.”

Kirk laughs and pats Bones on the back, “Of course not, everything will be fine, now go do your job.”

This time Bones’ curses have real style as he heads down the corridor and Tiwa grins up at Kirk. By the time they’re back at the Observation Deck, Kirk is actually tired out, he keeps forgetting Tiwa’s not just a girl and then she’ll hop somewhere and he gets confused.
He’s shown her every possible window on the ship and there are a lot of them and now, she’s almost perched on the window itself, “Come down from there.”

“Oh, I’ll be fine, it’ll hold me.”

Her grin stops him as he actually lifts her down as she laughs, “You’ve a good ship.”

“I know that. Now what would happen if I kissed you?”

Tiwa headtilts at him and considers his hair gravely, “I’d say thank you again probably, but I kind of prefer my James as a James not a Jim.”

He still kisses her and it is a very good kiss which makes her laugh and slip out of his arms, “Your doctor will be getting worried.”

“He’s not mine, he’s just Bones.”

“Well, he’s a very good Bones, come on.”

Jim is quick on his feet but he’s not sure just how they end up in the sick bay that quickly and he waves a little sheepishly to Bones who is doing his best to calm the woman from the bed beside Tiwa’s down, “Half a sec, I’ll fix this.”

She grabs her clothes and changes before slipping the uniform under Bones’ arm with all sorts of innocence and he just grumbles at her.

Sometime after Bones is convinced that really no one is going to die today, Tiwa gives him a quick hug and flies out a nearby door. Jim looks over to him and says, “Tell me again what she is.”

“I can show you the damn readings, don’t make a lick of sense.”

*snicker* There's a young mage in my head with many dots in Knowledge: Lores just rolling his eyes, amused.

And then wanting Kirk's autograph.

Hee. Fi?

ALL DAY at work today (opening shift), I was going over the idea of this character (David Haikado, young Order of Hermes mage) having to go on a rescue through the space/time portal, and.... wacky hijinks on board the Enterprise to rescue the poor fae who got lost!

Mind 2 'These are Not the Droids You're Looking For' spells don't work on vulcans, my mind decided. *amused*
