    Summary

    After two and a half semesters at Samwell, Dex has gotten used to people handling their stress in weird ways. Bitty bakes up a storm, Lardo is constantly covered in what Dex really, really hopes is paint, Ransom turns into a curled-up ball of anxiety on the nearest flat surface. He gets it: people are just weird here.

    That doesn’t mean he doesn’t choke on his Red Bull when Nursey sighs, “God, I’m so tense right now. I just really need to suck a dick, y’know?”

    (Or: five times Dex and Nursey really don’t quite know what they’re doing, and one time they’ve really, really figured it out.)

    Summary

    I've recently been unexpectedly promoted to lead a department in my organisation, wrote the anonymous emailer.

     

    As there was no one working here when I arrived, my manager, who is head of the organisation, had promised me the choice of my own assistants. However, without warning, he simply presented me with an additional assistant. This new assistant’s first act on his first day was to let a dog into the office. It took several hours to catch and clean up after this dog and it has only been downhill from there. I admit I'm not entirely sure what to do with this assistant now I'm stuck with him. I'm hoping you have some advice?

     

    Kind regards,
    New Manager

    Summary

    As soon as Aubrey Thyme, psychotherapist, had opened her office door and seen her new client, Anthony J. Crowley, sitting in her waiting area, she was observing and assessing him. At first glance, she paid attention to the following:

    --His clothing was expensive and stylish;
    --He wore very strange but noticeable cologne;
    --His relationship to the seat he occupied could only, very loosely, be described as “sitting;”
    --He looked angry;
    --He was wearing sunglasses.

    What Aubrey Thyme, a professional, thought, upon first seeing her new client was: you’re going to be a fun one, aren’t you?

    Summary

    Miriam thought the job working for InGen sounded perfect. Tropical island, good pay, first dibs on publications… At least, she thought so until she found out that she was the only behaviorist on staff. Once the eggs hatched, it became all she could do to keep up–with the dinosaurs, the science, and her health.

    Summary

    Brnine blinks. Tries to refocus. Brecheliant still sprawls out below. “Uh, hey, guys? What just happened?” Red numbers on the dashboard. It’s well before dawn.
    Hunting glances over at them. “We’re on the approach. Is something wrong, Captain?”
    They’re on the Blue Channel. Phrygian and Hunting are there. The sky overhead is leaden, but calm. They’re alive. They’re alive.
    They’re alive.

    Summary

    KIM KITSURAGI — “You don’t remember what a Divine is,” he says, “but you remember how to jam through a high-security door without setting off the foghorns?”

    INTERFACING [Formidable: Success] — It’s less of a door and more of a five-foot cement wall. You have your fingers stuck to the terminal—a chunky, green-tinted machine that has seen better days. Some of the wiring is exposed on the side.

    HAND/EYE COORDINATION [Challenging: Success] — It feels good, going through the motions. Holding cables down with one hand, scraping the lid off with a rusted knife while Kim shines a light on your hands. Familiar.

    YOU — “Yeah, hey, I guess it’s like running.” You flash a grin at him. “Or riding a bike.”

    KIM KITSURAGI — He squints at you.

    ENCYCLOPEDIA [Medium: Success] — A bicycle—or bike—is a millenia-old outdated concept, let alone a reality. There isn’t enough space here in Counterweight for people to drive bicycles—it’s all traffic and hurried passerby. The domes are cramped and not vehicle-friendly.

    YOU — Bummer.

    KIM KITSURAGI — “In any case, I’m not sure most people would have ‘circuit disabling skills’ as part of their basic motoric accoutrements.”

    Dear Fero To Fero Fero HEY

    Summary

    Don and Kathy would move in together. They would have a dog or two and then inevitably, a small parade of adorable little brats who would call him Uncle Cosmo, and they would spend less and less time with him, not on purpose but busy with the rest of their lives, and ultimately Cosmo would learn to make his peace with it because he’d have no other choice and he would have to try to move on and not live too much in his memories. He could picture it so clearly, he figured if the songwriting gig with Monumental didn’t pan out, he could always return to the backwater circuit with a new act: The Amazing Cosmo of the Cosmos—ladies and gentlemen, he sees the future, he reads the stars, he silently pines for his best married pal and all the while tap dancing!

    Don and Kathy inviting him along on their honeymoon, though—that part was a surprise.

    Summary

    A very long time ago, when there was no after the war because such a thing seemed to us like an impossibility that would never come to pass, Rachel told me when I die, I want to go out as a grizzly.

    But she didn't, and instead she left me alone, to try and figure out where I fit into everything: into a world where everybody else went home, but I never did.

    Why didn't I just go home?

    (Or: after Rachel's death, Tobias meets a Yeerk nothlit, and doesn't know where to go from there.)

    Summary

    Most people rekindled friendships with people from high school over Facebook or Twitter. Most people met for coffee, shared pictures of their bratty children, and sent old friends Christmas letters once a year.

    Marinette was clearly not most people as she had somehow hooked up with her former high school crush on a bondage dating website and didn't know it until he was standing in front of her with an identical look of bemused embarrassment plastered all over his pretty face.

    Summary

    In the two weeks following the events of Star Trek Into Darkness, a Starfleet officer tries to put Starfleet back together again.

    As a friend pointed out, anyone looking for a fic with plot and subtlety should probably not read this fic. It might work whether you liked the movie or not, but I wrote it in order to address multiple aspects of fail. It should probably be titled, Why I Love Starfleet.
