#this is a star trek tag

Tarsus IV was home to approximately 4000 farmers, 2500 craftspeople, 1500 kids, 100 administrators, and 5 medical professionals. Maybe there were some other kinds of people, but Leonard hadn't had the chance to look at the full briefing details until they were on the shuttle, and trying to read it then had just made him nauseous. But the gist was clear - a small pastoral community, perfect for saving up for a diamond for Jocelyn while he worked his way through his residency.

...

somehow if this was something I could write, the following would happen:

JT Kirk and his kids running around the outskirts looking for food and resources from anyone with a heart

Leonard stuck in clinic hating his life because he can't do everything he wants to do to help

Guilt complex about being "important" enough to live

sneaking food but not too much because he wants to help but it's more helpful if he can get them some for longer

Daring caper in which "use this hypo to treat injury before I need the case in the cupboard for inventory in just a few hours"

Leonard loses mentor (in riots? pissed off Kodos? starvation induced because they were independently helping JT and kids)

Leonard has to treat Kodos/Lenore/his guards/someone else awful for something stupid minor

no wait, definitely Lenore, definitely something that leaves an unmistakable though not broadly visible scar

something dire happens/someone is caught just before Starfleet makes it there

he gets called Bones because "skin and bones" which prompts eyebrow raise at Jim because look who's talking

Jocelyn does not get a ring

somehow this would become the roots of Jim/Bones, but not until they split apart and then meet again at the Academy (but probably later)

depending how to play this: either they recognize each other, or completely unrelatedly Jim produces the same nickname and (cue PTSD triggers)

and then once they're on the enterprise...

conscience of the king except Bones and Jim both recognize Kodos

or no, wait, Jim recognizes Kodos, but Bones recognizes Lenore (they are both very much at risk)

every moment Jim and Lenore flirt, Bones loses a year of his life

the rule of max angst says they both don't reveal that they were on Tarsus until this disaster, but I think that might be stretching things unless they didn't interact much on Tarsus because my initial thought said

idk how it resolves, just happily

loosely inspired by https://archiveofourown.org/works/24977341, but like, one phrase of it
