    Summary

    After a long diplomatic mission, a quiet shuttle ride becomes anything but routine. With tensions simmering just beneath the surface—both political and personal—Beverly Crusher and Jean-Luc Picard find themselves navigating far more than star charts. In close quarters, even the best intentions have a way of unraveling.

    Summary

    A sequel to The Nightmare Before Christmas. Or rather, a flashback. It recounts an incident that took place about six months earlier, which then led to the subsequent events on the Enterprise E and later on, Caldos.

    Summary

    In the silence of deep space, a single heartbeat changes everything. Beverly Crusher is grappling with a secret too heavy to hold and a love too fractured to trust. Jean-Luc Picard is unraveling — in duty, in pride, in the spaces where she once stood. When the past erupts into the present with fire and blood, choices must be made. Some will be too late. And some... may just rewrite everything.

    Summary

    In a world where diplomacy demands deception, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and Dr. Beverly Crusher step into a lie that exposes the fragile truths between them. Bound by protocol, forced to pretend what they’ve always buried, they navigate alien elegance, intimate proximity, and unhealed wounds. Beneath the surface of practiced poise lies a history too heavy to ignore—and a love too dangerous to name. As shadows of the past stir and new possibilities bloom in unexpected places, one truth becomes inescapable: pretending was never the problem. It's what happens when the pretending stops.

    Summary

    The hum of the Enterprise is steady, familiar — until a call in the night breaks the quiet. A missing shuttle. A dangerous stretch of space. And in a heartbeat, the captain’s world tilts. What begins as a routine search will soon test loyalty, command, and the bonds no one dares speak aloud.

    Summary

    “I'm truly sorry, but I just don't have the energy to entertain visitors at the moment.” She dropped curtly, sounding rather sarcastic while watching a dark, undefined silhouette approaching from behind. Unconsciously she felt her hands beginning to fidget and some discomfort stirring inside.

    A sequel to "The ties that binds us" for all those, who weren't happy with the original ending. I wasn't :)

    Summary

    He hadn't bothered to be a good friend lately anyway. The idea of closing the file 'weird friendships with men and how to navigate around their egos' receded more and more into the background and finally vanished into nothing more than the knowledge that he would still be there when she got home - maybe even a little late.
