❝ And, so ⸺ you were also thinking some random planet we hardly know anything about was the appropriate place to try ?! ❞

anon asked: is it true you hate @darehearts ?

❝ Is it true I hate ⸺ No, ❞ she sighs, hands perching on her hips. ❝ No, I don't hate him. Quite the opposite, actually. . . I like him, there's some good things about Captain Jimbo. I mean, as a matter of fact, off the record ⸺ he reminds me of Carol in a lot of ways. ❞

High praise from Jessica Drew.

❝ Which, speaking of, that's why I'm so frustrated by what's going on with them ! And yeah, yeah ⸺ it's ❛ none of my business ❜ ⸺ allegedly. But that's my best friend ! So, whatever, it is my business. ❞

❝ And, because it's my business, I do think they'd be a good couple ⸺ for the record. . . So, no, I don't hate Captain Kirk. I like him enough I wish he'd stop fucking around and ask my best friend out ⸺ do them both some good. ❞

❝ I just wanna punch him sometimes, is all. But, like, y'know ⸺ in a friendly, helpful way. ❞

Barely having any time to process the fear she sees in Spock's eyes, he's suddenly leading her down the corridor. Remaining as silent as possible, Jessica follows at his pace, tips of her shoes practically clipping at his heels. A million things run through her mind, though the one most pressing to her at the moment was what the Hell would make Spock react like this ?

A phaser ⸺ boy, was she happy to see one of them. However, on the other hand, the half-Vulcan's words ? Not as happy about the sound of them. Setting the phaser to kill, she looks over to the door, starting to doubt how much refuge it actually offered. ❝ What is it we ❛ must stay away from ❜ exactly ? Don't get me wrong, don't have to tell me twice, but it'd be nice to know wh — ❞

BOOM.

Jerking violently backwards at the sudden jolt, Jessica slams against the wall ⸺ adrenaline running so high, she hardly feels it. Although, she's sure to later. If there's a later. . .

At Spock's announcement to the Bridge, a cold sweat instantly begins to bead at Jessica's forehead and neck, every hair on her body sticking up straight. Fuck, shit, fuck ⸺

It takes a moment for her to register his suggestion to escape, concern for best friend's safety and whereabouts settling to the forefront of Jessica's mind. It'd been hours since she'd seen her, no idea where she could be. . . With great difficulty, she forces these thoughts aside, assuring herself that Carol would make it out of this, too. She has to make it out of this. . .

❝ Yes. ❞ Is all she can manage to say at first, aiming her weapon toward door, even if it apparently offered little protection now. ❝ Assuming we weren't followed and outside that door is clear ⸺ I'm gonna guess we make our way to the pods as quietly as possible ? ❞ She takes a deep breath, time to focus, their lives depend on it.

❝ Ready when you are, Mr. Spock. ❞

TO BOLDLY GO ⸺

okay so this is very rough but... here are the KEY FACTS for a STAR TREK VERSE:

Born in London, England, Earth on 7 December, 2230

Parents, Jonathan and Miriam, are normal scientists, no sketchy shit, which means Jess has no powers.

Both of her parents are specifically arthropod research scientists, and Jessica, having grown up around this, takes an interest in research sciences, too. Only, she wants to EXPAND HER HORIZONS – literally.

Initially starting out as interest in space bugs, it evolves into a general fascination with LIFE ELSEWHERE other than on Earth. And, so, she grows up to become an astro/exobiologist through education at the Starfleet Academy – desiring to study all life throughout the universe.

While she’s there, a different interest takes hold alongside her love of biology; she is recruited and trained in COVERT OPERATIONS ( thanks @oceansfirst ! 💙). She’s a brawler here too babes.

Being both a scientist, and trained as a covert op when she’s needed, she DOES have inner turmoil over certain secret missions, and will ALWAYS opt to save life instead of destroy it where possible.

( also not the most important thing but, she's possibly blonde here, since she's a natural blonde in the first place - haven't decided yet though, not like hair dye wouldn't exist in the 23rd century... )

@danversiism asked: ❛   so Miguel, huh ?   ❜ 👀

Dreamy eyes bat at the mention of his name, arms that held Jessica's knees to her chest curl in tighter. ❝ Heh, yeah. Yeah, Miguel. He's just so. . . Sweet, and funny, and smart ⸺ oh, he's such a brainiac, it's so hot. Which, speaking of, isn't he just so cute ?! ❞ Arms open as she falls backward onto her friend's bed, dopey, sideways grin on her face. ❝ He always wants my input on things. . . ❞ Makes her feel wanted, needed.

Sitting up, she suddenly points a finger at the blonde sitting next to her, now deadly serious as she spoke low. ❝ But, y'know, don't tell anyone. I mean it. It's so early and. . . and new, and fun, and exciting. . . ❞ The smile from before returns, as does the coyness to her voice. ❝ I finally get what people mean when they say they've got butterflies in their stomach. . . you know ? ❞

Jess blushes a little at the soft admission that slips from her before she can think twice. ❝ Never tell anyone I said that, oh my God. ❞

@danversiism sent: -throws herself on jessica's bed after her fight with the captain- ( st au )

Jessica's eyebrow curiously twitches upward. Carol's not usually one for the theatrics ⸺ that's her job. ❝ I'm sensing there's something bothering you ? ❞ Can't help but tease her some, hoping that it'll maybe make her bestie smile a little bit. ❝ Yooouu wanna tell me what happened today ? ❞

@neonwebs said: "You're looking fresh as a daisy." (For Them in Space :) // ( accepting )

❝ Aaaww, ❞ she giggles, eyes lighting up at the sound of his voice. ❝ What about as fresh as this cup of coffee ? ❞ Jessica spins around, offering him the coffee she'd picked up for him on her way to the lab.

Eyes narrow and lips purse. ❝ I mean, we could go around in circles. I've heard — ❞ you're pretty good at that. Jessica cuts herself off before the end of her sentence, aware she should at least try not to make things worse before she's even started.

Furious, she grits her teeth, standing up straighter and staring past him ⸺ trying and failing to seem less aggressive. ❝ Yes, this is about Lieutenant Danvers. ❞

An eyebrow raises as she looks to Jim. ❝ Mutiny, huh ? Well, there's a thought, now that you mention it. ❞ She glares daggers. ❝ However, that requires a group ⸺ which I, unfortunately, lack right now. . . I'm sure it wouldn't be that difficult to find some people, though. . . ❞ The rest of her words grumbled under her breath as she leans backwards against the wall.

❝ Look, ❞ Jessica sighs, unfurling her arms to throw her hands up as a sign of momentary surrender. ❝ I just wanna know what your end goal is. Like, what's the game plan here, Captain ? ❞ That question is one she's asked dozens of times in a much different context ⸺ only she'd never spoke his title so venomously then.
