Ramble!fic wherein Pike is tapped for babysitting duty (1/?) (Pike POV, 952 words, R, Pike+Ex+Dog)

Somebody, somewhere, wanted Pike babysitting Joanna. Here's part one of that story, since I typed it up months ago and it's at a good stopping point. The rest of it will follow at some point. Probably. Maybe. Whatever.

My work ethic will return eventually, I promise. :x

MY DAY IS ALREADY BETTER. Way busy, but better!

There's a brief pause, probably because Haprin has to stop and think about what the fuck this 'trust' shit is. "I have no choice," she answers.

Have I mentioned how much I adore your Josa Haprin?

Chris digs his fingers into Naja's ruff and reaffirms his preference for quadrupeds. They are easily plied with foodstuffs, forgive most trespasses if you rub their belly, and, if all else fails, you can sit on them until they calm down (incidentally, Chris gets on with Kirk quite well, despite his species.)

AHAHAHAHAHAHA!

And also your Chris Pike. How I adore your Chris Pike.

PS Haprin wants to run the numbers before they make it official, but Chris trusts his instincts; Fleischer will make a hell of a Chief Engineer.

How did Fleischer get replaced by that hapless idiot Olson?

:DDDDDDD GLAD I COULD HELP! Your comments are always so awesome. I've been flailing around wondering why I should bother writing but that's the reason, right there. Making people's day. :)

*wiggle* Josa is one of my most beloved and complete OCs, and considering how many OCs I have, that's quite something. I'm ecstatic that you adore her. :)

Ahahaha Pike may or may not be acting as the Mouthpiece of the Author there. >> I JUST RLY RLY LIKE DOGS, OKAY. HUMANS ARE TOO MUCH WORK.

How did Fleischer get replaced by that hapless idiot Olson?

That's a very good question, and because it's been over a year since I thought this up and I've only told one person as of yet, and it's way past my bedtime and thus my judgment is impaired, and you buttered me up with all that OC praise, I'm going to tell you:

Fleischer gets knocked up by a random ensign (scandalous!) and has to decline the position of Chief Engineer. She still has a few more weeks of active duty left when Narada attacks, so she's assigned to the Farragut, and is on the ( ... )

... I cannot think of anything to say fit for the awesomeness of this idea. Eeee, I LOVE IT.

It's been flattened, not stripped of depth so much as soil, cool and tightly packed.

That's beautiful.

Chris doesn't like that. It's not realistic.

Awww, Chris. So kind and nurturing.

For now, it's sufficient that Haprin and her ex-husband have their paranoia synchronized well enough to trust each other's judgment. Chris considers suggesting that they use their bottomless congeniality to make some new friends, but he'd rather not poke the bear today.

AHAHAHAHA this is fabulous and eerily reminiscent of my own parents. /puts up the thumbs, all of them

"Oh stop, you're embarrassing me." Chris lays on the sarcasm but really, this is an improvement. Seven years ago he had to swear total fealty and compliance just to hold the newborn and even then, Haprin hovered. Chris suspects that the only thing that kept her from snatching the infant back was the awkward fit of the Reserve Corps blues on her newly acquired bulk. Chris would think that was a tidy metaphor for her transition to domesticity but even in civvies, clothes are ( ... )
