// I LOVE that we're getting some more "Chef Pike" in Season 3 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. These moments are part of why I feel so connected to Captain Pike and his crew. They're not just shipmates. They're good friends, and these occasions strengthen that bond. Also, that food (a spiral-cut ham, I think?) looks delicious.

You know, the lack of "Hold up, let Captain Christopher Pike cook" memes disappoint me. Not only is this man a chef, so we get the layered joke with the meme... but can you imagine. JUST IMAGINE SOME random Star Fleet admiral about to sorte the entire Federation fleet to the Enterprise's location for whatever catastrophe/crisis is being solved and they find the entire fleet is waiting just a one mintue warp jump away and the admiral doesn't know what or why and the captains he calls are just like. "We are letting Pike cook, sir." I mean, come on, they call him a "boy scout" ON his file. So I love to think there is a subsection saying, "Also, always remember, if the Enterprise needs help, let Pike cook first."

And don't let me get started on letting Benjamin Sisko cook. (Though to be fair that was before memes were a thing.)

Christopher Pike as the sea king Triton. Drawn for https://vk.com/askstartrek for the mermaid event.

Q: How would your life be if you were a mermaid?

In a palace of coral and glowing pearls, Christopher sits not just as a ruler, but as a protector of all underwater peoples. He holds a trident not to intimidate, but as a symbol of balance. There is no place for tyranny or fear in his domain. Only order and the voice of reason.

He listens to the singing of whales, dives into the most dangerous crevices to save those in trouble. And even if the sea borders were threatened again and again - he would stand first. And last.

The crown may suit him, but he earns respect not with gold, but with deeds.

JUNE 14!!!! 🖖

I like how when Pike expresses a desire to quit, the same day he gets kidnapped and mentally manipulated by big brained aliens who want to study him. That shit would irritate my soul. It would be my 13th reason. At that point I’m looking Spock in the eyes and going “take me to earth NOW”

Love Slugs

A Star Trek: SNW fanfic

Part 1

Captain Christopher Pike/reader

Rating: T

- - -

Summary:

A tight space in a balmy climate quickly convinced us to shed our uniform jackets. The shirts beneath them gradually unzipped, and buttons came undone to fight off the heat. Only a fraction more skin was exposed, less than I’d show in civvies on a day off, but it still defied protocol.

We’d both been in tighter situations than that—figuratively and literally—with bare arms abound, but neither of us accounted for the slug effect.

OR

After a rather heated moment on an away mission, Captain Pike is cornered in the hallway to talk about the kiss. And maybe see if he has any interest in repeating recent history.

Part 1:

Despite his rank and the professionalism that came with it, I still expected to see more emotion on his face than what greeted me when I called after him.

His eyes did a quick perimeter scan before meeting mine, wary of any onlookers before settling into placidity. He planted his feet, shoulders squaring to match mine, and smiled, but his eyes did not crease at the corners, did not sparkle. “Yes, Ensign?” An eyebrow ticked up, inviting a reply, but he blinked as he did it. Feigned diplomacy.

“Captain Pike,” I greeted, parking my feet a meter from his. “For someone so willing to square off with unknown dangers on weekly away missions, I have to admit I’m surprised. I didn’t think I’d have to literally flag you down,” I teased. I come in peace.

His chin tucked in a millimeter, smile warming a single degree. “Respectfully, the Gorn inspire less fear than the mere possibility of your wrath.” He nodded at a passing Lieutenant, waited for their footsteps to fade. “I’m sorry,” he said, voice lowered. “I didn’t mean to be evasive.”

“You know, I’m not sure I believe that,” I replied lightly, involuntarily stepping an inch closer. Catching myself, I retreated two inches back. “Look, we both saw Christine’s report. The slugs may have kicked things off, but it’s clear we crossed that line all on our own.”

I heard an intake of breath and knew another apology was about to greet me. “I’m not mad at you,” I rushed, cutting him off.

A/N: I published this back in June but figured I’d post it here, too. This is my first dip back into writing fanfic in forever (Captain Pike has that effect on people), and I hope everyone who reads it finds something they like. :)
