this was very nice, although I am now worried there will be character death.

Thank you for sharing :-)

Well, without giving away too much, all I can say is that I'm aware of what readers generally expect to be warned against in the story header. ;-) and I'm a sucker for happy endings. So whatever happens over the course of the story, just keep that in mind. :D
Thanks a lot for the comment.

I'm biting my nails and they haven't even deteriorated that badly yet.

I kinda want to smack the observers around.

Oh, but they'll get there... ;-) But I agree with you about the observers. The first time I watched the episode, I was right there with you. Daring to hurt Trip...*mumbles threats under her breath*

Oh, dear. Things are not looking good for our boys. And Sulu is sufficiently creepy. And we know McCoy isn't going to go down without a fight.

*sitting on pins&needles until the next chapter*

I don't know, the thought that Sulu seems creepy, even though it's part of the way the story is written, is somewhat funny. But you're right, Bones definitely isn't going to go down without a fight, especially not against something like a virus. I mean, seriously...

Never worry, the next chapter is well under way, and by order of the episode which I'm trying to stick to, I'm only 16 minutes in yet.

Glad you like it so far, thanks hon.

Damnit! That hurt. *wipes eyes*

I adored the story about Chekov's past and then you had to go and tell me they only have five hours to live?!?

Love that the whole ship is working on it, that they're demonstrating just how different humans are. I adore Bones' fighting spirit and want the observers to suffer the fate they've condemned so many others to.

Please tell me you're writing fast so I'm not sitting here all worried for a long, long time!

Oh, I am writing, I promise you that. It's different writing something based on an episode, but it goes smoothly so far - and we're only 16 minutes in. ;-)

So don't worry, I'm working on it. Glad you liked it so far, thanks so much for the wonderful comment.

Oh, I love your Chekov! I'm a huge fan of when he's not squeaky clean and him as a bookie is just the greatest image ever. And Bones refusing to go down without a fight and Jim's hesitance were both perfect, too. :)

Oh, I think that there are many hidden depths behind Chekov's young age and brilliant mind. It's more fun that way. :D
