[comment-fics] Temeraire/Star Trek Crossover - THIS DRAGON IS EXCITING!

[tanyartblog]

Firstly, pellucere wrote me this fantastic Temeraire/Treasure Planet crossover where Laurence meets Jim Hawkins (and pink-dragon!Morph) and I totally flipped into crazy-mode. It is adorable. Do not read my first comment, you will think I’m a freak.

Soon after we started talking about Star Trek Reboot and, well, you know… FIC HAPPENS. (<-McCoy, Sulu, and

Re: NOTHING IS REGULATIONNNN, CAPTAINNN

ps

Jim is always trying to rope Bones into his adventures. Certainly many of his other crewmembers would be delighted to partake in whatever plan their captain has come up with today, but for some reason Jim always comes to Bones, swings an arm around his shoulder, and begins: "So! Mccoy! Old friend, dearest of my acquaintances. What do you say we go into town and--"

And by now Bones can fill in the rest. It never even matters, really, what Jim says anymore: What it will mean is that Bones will have to dig his captain out of some ridiculous trouble, he'll have a pounding headache all the next day, and he will regret that his hip flask is not larger

WTF BEST POST SCRIPT EVER

JIM, CLING HARDER TO BONES AND NEVER, EVER LET GO. And, awww, even though he is still worried for his dragon, he still goes all on it very Jim-like way, and it is adorable. I love how you wrote him through Bone's eyes. *flails*

Hang them, they've seen Jim in odder positions...
I can imagine, but I want to read this.

And that last line? DING! omg, mark a tic for Number of Bone's Catchphrase Used. ilu.

Jim is forever trying to get Bones to do things he shouldn't, and so Bones is forever saying that he isn't a tailor, a cook, a musician, a human's surgeon, a fish, a whore.

On the 'odd positions' thing: Inceptum once was neatening up her clearing and she put Jim away for safekeeping at the top of a tree, but later she's all like BUT WHERE DID I PUUUUUT HIM and goes flapping around the whole covert looking for him, but Jim's still there, stuck, hollering 'here I am! Hoi! I'm HERE!' and then people see him and they laugh at him horribly.

Also I really want to write that one bit where Jim is injured and needs to get hauled up on a stretcher into Inceptum's belly rigging, and Scotty rigs out a pulley, and Jim is massively drugged out on painkillers so he flaps an arm weakly and goes 'pull me up, Scotty!' (like you said), and Scotty is going "...okay?" and Bones is just. ETERNAL FACEPALM. Except I need sleep so maybe tomorrow?
