Author’s Note: I’m kind of sad about this. I am. I truly do think this is probably the last canon!AOS ‘Trek story I’ll ever write because I literally cannot do this to my brain anymore. Seriously, you guys have no idea how hard it was for me not to simply say ‘eff it’ and write my characterizations of the ‘Trek characters into this story instead of ( Read more... )

Author’s Note: *requisite spoiler warning* Here begins my humble quest to plug a small handful of the million plotholes Into Failure gave us. When I wasn’t laughing in my seat during IF’s climactic scene between an OOC Jim and an ever more OOC Spock (Spock CRYING?? COME ON!!), I was wondering just how the hell I was expected to believe Kirk ( Read more... )

Title: Say Goodnight, Not Goodbye

Author: Gixxer Pilot

Summary: “You know what your problem is, Jim? You don't respect the chair.” He does now, thank you very much. ***Into Darkness spoilers***

Author's Notes: So. Star Trek: Into Darkness. My thoughts on the film can be summed up in one simple sentence: Gix was not impressed. It was a cluster ( Read more... )

Author's Notes: I am so sorry for the length of time it's taken me to post this (relatively short) story. It was supposed to end with chapter two, but as I was preparing it to post, I decided I didn't like how the story was going to end if I just left it at the end of chapter two. Plus, I needed to a little bit of work with some plot lead ins for ( Read more... )

Author’s Notes: So, this chapter is definitely a new experience for me because the content is really out of my comfort zone. (They tell me that’s what I’m supposed to do as a writer - push my own limits. Sometimes I think they’re full of shit, if I’m honest.) Since it’s so far out of my strike zone, I’m also hoping that Pike’s reactions are in ( Read more... )

Title: Bulletproof

Author: Gixxer Pilot

Summary: Star Trek Zombie!verse AU. (Yes, you read that right!) What is ethical isn’t always right. What is right isn’t always ethical. For Chris Pike, the key is finding that perfect balance between the two...and then living with the consequences of his actions.

Warnings: Blood, gore BAMFery and minor ( Read more... )

Title: Made it to Arlington

Author: gixxer_pilot

Beta: wicked_jade

Summary: Sometimes, giving your best simply isn’t enough. Kirk, McCoy and Pike find this out the hard way in the wake of the Battle of Vulcan. Oneshot; warning for canon character death.

Warnings: Angst, Character Death (Canon)

Author’s Notes: This story is an alternate take on how I think the 2009 movie could ( Read more... )

Author's Notes: The story was supposed to end with the previous chapter, but this idea hit me a few months after I thought I'd completed the fic and begged to be written. Bones is such a fun character to write because he's almost like writing two people. On the outside, you have this cranky, sarcastic jerk who uses that to cover how wonderfully ( Read more... )

Author's Notes: It's not been a happy weekend at casa de Gix. Last week, a good friend of mine lost a family member in a car accident. On Friday, my fiancé's grandmother passed away (though that was not unexpected), and yesterday I found out that a longtime friend died suddenly. I apologize for the delay in posting this stuff, but I've been a bit ( Read more... )

Author's Notes: Last summer, I occupied myself with hours upon hours of Angry Birds. I'm glad I couldn't find a game timer within that app, because I know it would have depressed me if I'd seen how much time I wasted launching various birds at little green pigs. I'd probably have been able to write a couple of stories in that time! Or, I suppose I ( Read more... )
