Space. Space is awesome. You should totally explore it, and you should totally do it as part of the Star Trek universe. Here are the
1. Comment. Optionally, you could pick a role for yourself and a brief sample scene for people to tag into. You could also just leave it completely open. Or you can do BOTH and maximize your RP potential!
2. Make sure to mention your preferences! If you're here for beginning CR, if you're looking for a romance, if you want to find wild and wacky antics amongst the Klingons, etc.
3. TAG OUT! Star Trek is all about meeting new people and experiencing new cultures. Try to tag at least one person with each character you drop in.
4. Choose a scenario! Don't feel limited to the choices below, but if you need RNG to help inspire some kind of starting point, a list has been provided.
5. Live long AND prosper.
Possible Scenarios
1. Fresh New Faces - You've just enrolled at Starfleet. Now it's time for SHENANIGANS ON CAMPUS. Study hard, make new friends, or enlist as a teacher to help mold these young minds. And of course, there's the infamous Kobayashi Maru test to take...
2. Academy Buddies/Rivals - You were assigned to the ship along with someone you knew very well back at Starfleet Academy. Will you work together? Will old grudges still follow through now that you're no longer cadets?
3. Department Heads - There are a lot of people in charge of a lot of departments. Engineering, Security, Medical, Navigations...either way, someone's in charge, and officers need to report in, do paperwork, take on missions... Is your department head someone to look up to, or is he/she an overbearing asshole? Are YOU the overbearing asshole department head?
4. I Am the Captain - Congratulations, you have your very own ship! What the hell are you going to do with it? Recommended: not flying the ship into a sun.
5. Suddenly Crossover! - You do not belong in this universe. Somehow, you wound up here anyway, and Starfleet's here to check you out (or vice versa). Are you an ally, or an enemy?
6. Crew Social - Not everything's about diplomatic aliens and hostile killer space entities. Sometimes you just have to attend a meet-n-greet to relax and get to know your fellow crewmates. It could be taking a meal at the mess hall, grabbing a drink at the relaxation center, or a formal dance arranged by the captain.
7. Diplomatic Mission - One of you is Starfleet, the other one isn't. You're here to convince this race to align with Starfleet to share knowledge, peace, and prosperity. Or it's a TRAP.
8. Away Mission - Exploring a new planet in space isn't without its dangers. Hopefully you're not wearing a red shirt. Oh, you are? Oh. Oh I'm so sorry.

Yes. Sexy is my name. [She says, quite serious. Beaming, Sexy nods, leaning into him for a little support.] Alright.
no subject
Tell me more about yourself, Sexy. Where are you from? What do you do?
no subject
I'm from Gallifrey. [Hard to tell whether Gallifrey would be known to these people. She cocks her head to the side.] I fly around time and space in my box.
no subject
[She doesn't seem to mind his questions, so he continues.]
Do you usually show up on starships looking like a human female?
no subject
A blue one.
[She doesn't, really. It's nice to talk. She never gets to talk to anybody.]
Ah, no. I don't.
no subject
[And into the turbolift they go. The ride is smooth and unjarring, thankfully.]
What do you normally look like, then?
no subject
A blue box that travels through time and space.
[Sexy looks around with fascination.]
A blue box that travels through time and space. [She repeats, blinking at him.]
no subject
[He's not sure he believes it, but given the nature of their mission, he won't rule it out as impossible. The lift opens, and he escorts her into the hallway.]
Next stop, medbay, heeere we go.
no subject
Really now, Captain, I rather think you're making a mistake. [She lets Jim lead her down the hall, but seems amused by everything.]
no subject
[Because Kirk has no idea what to do with her.]
no subject
Am I tired? [It's a genuine question. Not that he would know, but it wasn't like she knew what being tired felt like.]
no subject
[He suspects she may be in shock, though her responses have been lucid enough. He bends down to pick her up and gently lays her out on one of the biobeds.]
no subject
I would?
[Sexy is taken by surprise when he lifts her up, but allows it, blinking up at him. Bones already has his eyebrow raised as he moves away from his desk to join them.]
no subject
[He glances at the doctor momentarily, then back to the strange woman.]
What about now, can you describe what you're feeling?
no subject
Well...I don't know. Sort of bored, really. [Probably not the feeling Jim means. Bones snorts and moves to examine her pupils, checking for a basic concussion. Maybe that would explain her nonsense.]
You know, I don't think I'm tired, Captain. I've still got all my time energy.
no subject
What do you use time energy for?
no subject
To travel through time and space. [She says it like it's the most natural thing in the world, and gets distracted by Bones' tests.] Through the vortex.
no subject
no subject
The time vortex. [Sexy answers this simply, and quite clearly.]
