Summary
Maverick hasn’t seen Iceman in years. But inevitably, they always cross paths again sooner or later.
Five (plus one) potential timelines in which Maverick meets Iceman again 35 years later; some more on the comical side, others less so.
Or, a pre-emptive strike: Six scenarios I’d prefer to see than whatever the actual sequel turns out to be. (If it ever comes out.)

Summary
She frowned. “Mother always tells me that I’m not ladylike at all.”
“And what do I always tell you?”
“That being ladylike is for vapid women who lack ambition,” she parroted.
“Exactly,” Father said. Lyra grinned, and Pantalaimon became a coral snake on her shoulder, his belly an electric blue and his head a fiery orange, like the tip of a match. “And while your mother may pretend well,” Father continued, the corner of his lip quirking up, “don’t forget that she’s no lady either.” He turned back to his book. “Now run along.”
(The world in which Marisa and Asriel choose each other in the wake of the murder, take Lyra, and run.)

Summary
Jim Kirk is a small-town smartass from Iowa trying to find some purpose in life by roadtripping across America. Along the way he picks up a soft-spoken boy from Boston with a complicated relationship with his parents- not to mention a talent with a chessboard- and a good ol’ country doctor from Georgia, still bitter about losing the custody battle.
They bump into some others along the way. The beautiful singing voice in the motel room next to theirs belongs to an adventurous hitchhiker with several languages under her belt. The night shift mechanic who tows the remains of Jim’s first car comes along for the ride. His roommate would rather put his skills to the test driving cross-country than delivering pizzas. And the Russian whiz kid they pick up in Colorado is the only one who can read the goddamn maps.

Summary
Stranded on the planet Sigma Nox while searching for a missing away team, Spock and Kirk find themselves pitted against a disturbing native life form. With the captain out of commission on a regular basis and Spock struggling to preserve his stoicism, staying alive is difficult enough – but when a slim chance for escape surfaces, their resolve is truly put to the test. Together they must fight for survival in the heart of an alien jungle, and in the process, uncover the mystery of the planet’s past. Slow build K/S.
Written for the 2011 Star Trek Big Bang on Livejournal - look for links to the mix and art there!
Warnings: Minor character death. Mind control themes and sort-of-zombies. Dark at times due to twisted xenobiological shenanigans. Mild themes of stress-related weight loss. Heaps of TOS references and/or spoilers. Eventual smut. Freakishly long chapters.
