Summary
In which a semi-unified humanity encounters trolls for the first time, John and Dave are space pilots, I am terrible with descriptive and narrative text, so there will be a lot of dialogue, and I steal blatantly from "Enemy Mine", "Darmok" (TNG), and pretty much the last two seasons of DS9. Oh, and there will be relationships and characters not flagged yet. I mean, you make an AU, you might as well drag in reinterpretations of the whole cast to fit your own personal preferences, right?
