Motel Rooms and Misunderstandings
For the day one prompt of the @startrekfemslashweek: only one bed! 1.4k words, G, no warnings
Summary: Modern AU. Michael is feeling down about her not-relationship with her boss, Philippa Georgiou, and her own lack of plans for her vacation days. To get away from it all, she throws some clothes into her backpack and starts driving without a destination in mind: anywhere that isn't home sounds just about right. When she stops at a motel for the night, she's surprised to see a familiar face...

New Trek needs to stop this trend of using its marginalised characters for tragedy porn. Its white, straight, and/or abled characters never suffer as much or to the same extent. It is unacceptable, especially for these shows that repeatedly laud themselves for their diversity, to consistently put its diverse characters through more shit than anyone else.

Camina Drummer vs. Philippa Georgiou (Prime)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Remember: don't vote on "who would win in a fight", but on "who, when given a task that fits her skillset and talents, would do that task better: more comprehensively, faster, with more pizzazz, with less collateral, etc."
Endorsements! "What is she good at?"
Camina Drummer, The Expanse: She's badass, tough as nails, and doesn't take no for answer. She does everything in her power (and a lot that isn't!) to save her people and the individuals she holds most dear. Many times she isn't successful. But she keeps trying anyway. She loves deeply and wholeheartedly and is driven by that love and a deep-seated rage for the injustices her people have experienced.
Philippa Georgiou, Star Trek: One of the most accomplished captains of Starfleet right along the famous Christopher Pike. Treasures exploring the unknown. Chosen by Sarek to mentor his (human, adopted) daughter. Snarker on the bridge!

Katoberfest - today's prompt is "free day" but you could also see this as a late entry for "Where is Katrina Cornwell right now?"
Tumblr media
Just Kat and Philippa going for a walk on the USS Shenzhou
Let's pretend both of them are still alive and happily married <3
Thank you @cleverlycrusher for giving me the idea to edit them into one picture, I'll try to do more edits like this in the future <3

I'm currently reading Desperate Hours, which is a Disco novel that takes place on the USS Shenzhou, with Prime Georgiou. It takes place about a year before The Vulcan Hello.
I've seen some people ask if Pike had any influence on Michael as a captain. Based on what I've read so far - no. Captain Burnham is most definitely Captain Georgiou's protégé.
I won't spoil anything in this post, but you'll have to red the book to see what I'm talking about.

Aaaaand another one:
Part 14 of 'Total Eclipse' (the first installment in this series with an E rating *gasp*)
Michael and Philippa talk - among other things.
Tumblr media
For todays prompt at @discoveryfemslashfortnight confessions - this should hopefully fit.
And here's the way to the series' beginning.

Alright, I know I’m late to the party, but hear me out - what about an au where, first and foremost, Prime!Georgiou didn’t die because she was awesome and deserved better, and actually got to continue to mentor Michael and continued to build a rich and beautiful friendship. Michael made a mistake, which is understandable, and was busted down in rank but not called a traitor and was able to continue under Georgiou as Captain.
Then, second of all, have it that Prime!Lorca was BFFs with Georgiou and Pike bc they all went to the academy together, and as soon as Mirror!Lorca showed up, both Georgiou and Pike went “Uh no, this isn’t Gabriel Lorca” and instead locked Mirror!Lorca up and mounted a rescue mission to the mirror verse with the Discovery and the Enterprise to save their best friend? 
Like why can’t we have this healthy model of loyalty and positive human emotions to let Michael start her journey to greatness? She sees how vastly different Pike, Georgiou and Lorca are with their personalities, but how they’ve all achieved greatness in their own way and all value each other - and then she realizes that Tilly’s enthusiasm has its own illogical value and that she should broaden her horizon and risk things as well? 
Don’t get me wrong, the edgy antiheroes from the mirrorverse are fun sometimes, but I’d like some positive role models and painful but gradual growth. I want Prime!Georgiou. I want her to be three dimensional and bad ass with her own motley group that she went through fire with that the rest of the Discovery gets to meet and learn from and from that find their path to greatness. 
Or heck, maybe its the prequel, the Shenzhou is Georgiou’s ship, she and Pike with the Enterprise go over and rescue Prime!Lorca and after that experience, Michael learns what she needs to to trust herself and jump out of the nest. And just right out of the gate is made captain of the Discovery when it’s commissioned and put in charge of the crew and slowly becomes best friends with Tilly even though she’s a cadet because she’s learned friendship doesn’t care about rank or even dimensions. I don’t know I have a lot of thoughts about the possibilities of this that I’m sure no one cares about, but still.
Where’s this au? Can someone write this? Pretty please?

Don’t vote your favorite - this is about who you trust to save your life.
No room for “other in tags” on this one, I already had to leave off many prime choices!

of Pumpkins and Knives
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Philippa's body has healed from the wounds inflicted during the battle of the binary stars, but the mental pain lingers, and sometimes comes to the surface in the worst possible moments...
Thankfully, Philippa has Michael by her side to help her through it all.
1k words, T, Michael Prime/Philippa Prime
Read on Ao3
I wrote this in one go completely ignoring all my wips and the rest of my responsibilities. Happy Halloween!
~
"Hey!" Michael slips onto the bench next to Philippa, pressing a kiss to her cheek before turning towards her meal. "What's up? You look so glum." 
Philippa sighs, sips her soup, eyes darting left and right to check which of their subordinates might be listening in. "It's nothing." 
Michael just nods. She'll ask Philippa again later in their quarters or if they find a moment alone while on duty. She understands Philippa not wanting to talk about what looks like it will be a personal topic out in the open. While she is more laid back than many others in her position, she still needs to keep a certain image as Captain, and the mess hall isn't the most private place on the ship after all. 
"Everything alright on deck three?" Philippa changes the topic, and Michael nods. 
"Engineering just needed to replace two parts, it's all good now. I've actually spent the last two hours in the lab after we were done there..." 
"Yes? Any new discoveries?" 
There haven't been, as of yet, but Michael's eyes still light up with joy when she gets to talk about her favourite work with her girlfriend.
Later that day, Michael is just getting out of her uniform when Philippa walks into the room out of their shared bathroom, wrapped only in a towel and her hair still wet from the shower. 
"Hey, can you pass me my nightgown?" Michael pulls off her boots and waits as Philippa picks up the nightie as she walks past it, but instead of throwing or handing it to her, she places it on the bed and crawls into Michael's lap while the other is still just in her underwear. 
"Oh, hey there." Michael ignores the gown in favour of stroking Philippa's back while two arms snake around her waste and squeeze tightly, Philippa's face hiding in the crook of her neck. "That bad? Anything else I can do to make it better?" 
Philippa just shakes her head and mumbles something unintelligibly, and Michael gives her a comforting squeeze. 
Her girlfriend gets this way sometimes, ever since she almost died during battle. Her physical injuries have long since healed, and the mentally bad days have also gotten less, she's been cleared for duty and back in her old position (a new, shinier Shenzhou II named in honour of the old ship, and sometimes Michael isn't sure whether the reminder is a blessing or a curse)... But she still does have bad days from time to time, and while she can keep it together and do her job without taking sick days for them more often than not, she tends to fall apart after her shifts, hiding in Michael's arms.
Michael rests her cheek on top of Philippa's damp hair and hums a lullaby, waiting comfortably for her to either fall asleep or pull away. 
A few minutes later, Philippa sniffles and presses a kiss to Michael's collarbone before sitting up. "Thanks."
"Any time." She means that, hopes Philippa believes it by now. "Want to talk about it?"
Philippa frowns. "It's silly, really." 
Michael doesn't correct her this time, Philippa already knows her opinion (which happens to match the opinion of Philippa's counselor), that anything that can reduce Philippa to tears, a state of panic, or complete mental exhaustion or apathy, is clearly not nothing. From the look Philippa gives her, she knows it too, even without the reminder.
"The ensigns Tilly and Tal have asked to have a pumpkin carving competition for Halloween next week," Philippa says, pulling her towel closer around herself.
Michael tugs the covers lose from the bed and pulls her underneath them instead. "Yes?"
"They've roped Jett into it already, so naturally I had to say yes." 
"Alright?" 
"It's just -" Philippa squeezes her eyes shut, her hand shivering as she holds onto Michael's forearm. "Carving... Knives..." 
"Oh, love." Michael instantly hugs her close again. "I should have realized!"
Since being stabbed by the mek'leth and almost bleeding to death from the wounds, Philippa has an aversion to any kinds of blades. She hasn't told anyone apart from Michael, and even she has had to figure it out herself from the clues, Philippa had been afraid to have her Captaincy taken away again so shortly after being declared safe to go back to work. And she can handle herself, she didn't back down when in diplomatic talks with a people whose officials were holding longswords, didn't flinch when engineers were using knives to manually cut apart a part of a door that had fused together with the wall in a freak accident...
But she never eats meals that require knives in the mess hall anymore, in the privacy of her own rooms she programs the replicator to only give out pre-cut pieces she can eat with a fork, and she switched to laser hair removal when until then she had always used an old metal razor. 
"It's silly," she had said when Michael carefully approached her about it, "it's not like I stabbed myself on my own blade, but it's worse when I'm holding the knife somehow, it's like I'm constantly afraid of cutting myself or falling into it!" 
That had been one of their first discussions about what does and doesn't fall under the term 'silly', and Michael had promised her not to tell anyone about her trigger, though she should really see the counsellor about it. She did, after some time, and it has gotten better, but still...
"I used to love pumpkin carving as a child," Philippa whispers. "A few years ago, I would have been delighted at Tilly's idea, the nostalgic childhood memories and the fun competition. But now..." 
Michael cards her fingers through Philippa's hair, carefully detangling a strand before placing it back down. "You know I can find you an excuse not to attend, if that's what you want, she says quietly. But... You do realize no-one will actually expect everyone from participating? I've heard Tilly and Adira talk about it earlier, the way I understand it, there will just be a few from every department chosen to do the carving, the rest of us will be spectators or judges... You could easily say that as Captain, you'd rather someone else from the command team does the actual carving, both because you don't want to take away that chance from someone else and because you might get called away at any moment." 
Philippa nods quietly, thinking about it.
"You still don't have to go," Michael reassures her. "Not if you don't want to. You said Jett wants to be there, I'm sure we'll find a time where she's free and you're busy, and say it's just happenstance. But... You said it's mostly just you holding knives that gets to you now, maybe seeing others use them for something fun wouldn't be so bad?"
Philippa nods. "I'll think about it." Then, she buries her face in a pillow, clearly hiding from the world. 
Michael doesn't begrudge her that, she knows Philippa is emotionally exhausted. She carefully extracts her arm from Philippa's grip, though. "Just give me a moment to take off my bra, yes? Then we can go to sleep."
Philippa giggles, sniffs again, then actually sits up and rubs her hair dry a bit on the towel before throwing it in the direction of the hamper, narrowly missing it. Michael's eye twitches - before living with her, she never would have thought the Captain of a starship could be such a slob. But she doesn't say anything. It's Philippa's room too, they've got to compromise. At least she tried... And Michael just picks up the towel herself when she goes to place her clothes in the hamper. 
Philippa is watching her when she walks back to the bed, and Michael puts some extra sway into her hips, though she doesn't expect Philippa to have the energy for sex tonight. "Enjoying the show?"
"You know it." Philippa smiles. The covers have slid down her body exposing her own chest to Michael, who looks her fill in turn before turning out the lights and climbing into bed. 
"Night, love." 
Philippa wraps her arms around her, feeling the comfort of her girlfriend's warm skin.
"Goodnight, my Michael."
Fini

I really do love the 90s era Trek, it wasn't perfect it had the whole problem that it was a show in the 90s and the whole Berman of them all.
But also the episodic science fiction concepts are still, to this day very engaging.
I love it when things get dark in 90s Trek, it doesn't shy from it (except maybe when it resets to status quo) but also it doesn't get too dark.
I am so over grimdark, it's why I was initially put off by Discovery season 1. Especially killing Prime Philippa Georgiou. And learning that the Klingons ate her? I already have a quick about cannibalism that didn't help.
(It's why I am glad they don't make it plainly text that the Borgs were eating one of their own in Survival Instinct. And I discovered all this after the fact.)
Strange New Worlds is getting close to it, Picard Season 3 certainly is my flavor of Trek.
And I do really like season 1 of Picard, particularly the quiet character moments near the end of season 1. (I'm just not a fan of the pacing of things -- where everything and nothing happened, the perils of a short season, and an anthology-style series. Can someone tell me why Akiva Goldsmith and Alex Kurtzman were so enamored with the anthology idea for a series?).
I liked the first half of season 2 of Picard but it got messy in the middle to the end. Season 2 was the most affected by Covid.

Raffaela "Raffi" Musiker, Star Trek:Erm everything? She’s great at investigating and finding good intel in lots of information. Also really good at science stuff like disabling the missiles in the season 2 finale, or making a transport beam gun out of what gum and paper clips? In the season 3 finale. Lethal with a phaser, or a sword, or hand to hand. Just totally badass.
