*headdesk*

After seeing this icon, I want to write dark!Trek fic, where Jim and Spock or Jim and Bones or Spock and Bones, or, hell, why not all three, decide they don't want to be part of a peacekeeping armada anymore.  No, what they want now is burn down everything and then rise from the ashes better and stronger, rulers of the galaxy.  And of course, the Enterprise crew is right there with them, loyal to the death(and after!)

Yeah. Um. I have no explanation for my madness, dude,

Also, surely there is an icon somewhere of Castiel with the words not fucking human? And suddenly I want an icon with the words to rule them all, but I'm not sure which fandom. (I mean, clearly, I know it's Lord of the Rings. But would it be Sam Winchester, or Jim Kirk, or, hey, even Jack Sparrow?  I dunno.)

Oh, the cleverness of me

So, say there's this version of the reboot 'verse where Leonard McCoy didn't meet Jim Kirk on the way to Starfleet.  Everything with Nero still happens(*handwaves*) except without Bones.

A year after Jim becomes captain of his ship, he's told that because the Enterprise is the fastest, they get to transport an extremely dangerous prisoner. No one can have contact with the prisoner(whose name Jim is never told) because he'd find some way to escape, and if that happens the Enterprise is lost.

Jim's like, "Dude, why are we transporting him, then?" And Starfleet says, "Minion, just do it!"

Jim's there when they bring the guy onboard.  Pretty much, his entire arms are immoblized and he's got some sort of covering over his eyes. Jim raises an eyebrow and smirks.

After his shift, he heads for his room and stretches out on his bed.  Mentally, he asks, So, how long's it been?

Down in the brig(or whatever), the prisoner laughs.  This is your ship, is it? He then answers, 'bout a hundred years, I think.

During the course of their conversation, they call each other Jack and Will, and learn each other's current names: Captain Jim Kirk and Doctor Leonard McCoy.

At some point, Jim says, I was always meant for command.  No one ever said which side, though.

So, Jim lets Bones out(though he flipflops between various names that have been used over the course of the centuries) and together they take over the ship.  Jim tells the crew to choose: him, or they can be ejected to a nearby planet for pickup from Starfleet, no hard feelings. They choose Jim.

After the ship is secure, Jim and Bones go down the gym and start fencing.  Jim asks, "How long since you fought an equal?" Bones replies, "How long since you had actual rum?"

So, yeah.  Jim and Bones are the reincarnations of Jack Sparrow and Will Turner, reborn every couple hundred years.

Anyway. I have no idea how this could work out. I just think it might could be a lot of fun.
