Security Access: Shipwide

Everything is peachy in the dark recesses of engineering.  Things have calmed down a little, maybe because I've started physically threatening anyone who saying anything the least bit derogatory to me.  Not that anyone is very clear about what they're implying, but none of it is particularly nice.  So the odd looks have ( Read more... )

Rough Draft Message to Lt. Uhura:

I feel like I have to say something to you since I had amazing sex with your boyfriend...everything, I guess.  I’m sorry.  But not in the way I should be.  Since I would do it again in a heartbeat, even knowing everything now, because I’m that much of a
