New story--Hard Time

  • Mood: Olympic
  • Music:
I recently posted a new story here called "Hard Time," which is an episode addition to one of my least favorite seventh-season Voyager episodes--"Nightingale." 

For those of you who don't have the episode titles memorized (I hesitate to admit that I do!), this is the episode where Harry Kim "captains" an alien vessel, taking Seven of Nine along to provide advice on getting along with people and handling the problems of being in command.  Yeah.  Seven of Nine is supposed to do that--the former Borg drone.  The one who doesn't get along well with anyone and who has never been in command.  The writers must have been drunk when they wrote this episode, or maybe just totally besotted with Jeri Ryan. 

Anyway, I figure that when everything goes to hell in a hand basket, Janeway has got to feel like an idiot (oh, the things the writers make her do--or fail to do).  "Hard Time" lets us see some of her angst as she and Chakotay try to imagine how they'll explain what happened to a review board in the AQ.  Too bad she can't just blame it on the writers, no? 

This is another one of those stories that I discovered when I dusted under the bed a few weeks ago.  There may actually be one more from under there when I get the time and inclination to revise it. 

Anyway, enjoy. 

And, for those who like longer stories, I have a multi-chapter post-Endgame story in the works, and my friend, Dawn, has a majorly long novel coming out soon.  I've been beta'ing it, and I like it very much!  So good things are on the horizon!

Enjoy these last days of summer and root root root for the home team in the Olympics (whatever your country)!

Peace, Miz
