Summary
An AU of “The Most Toys.”
Kivas Fajo has had Data in his collection for months now. Securing his cooperation had been ridiculously easy. All Fajo had to do was threaten to kill a few of his minions in front of him. Now Data sits neatly in his chair and entertains Fajo to the best of his ability.
But such a successful trader is so easily bored.
Fajo begins using the tiniest excuses to kill in front of Data. When that ceases to amuse him, Fajo begins simulating false rescues by the Enterprise, relishing every reaction it causes in his newest “toy.” With no other bargaining chips, Data threatens to damage himself if Fajo kills someone without provocation or simulates his crew again.
Unable to trust his own senses, how will Data react when his family finally comes to save him?

Summary
This Trilogy follows Data in becoming more human, Geordi in becoming more aware and both on becoming more than friends. All of this is set post Season 7, without the help of an emotion chip and in classic-styled TNG episodes for the nostalgia.

Summary
Lieutenant Commander Data and fellow crew members find themselves displaced from their own reality and struggling to find a way back home.
Shortly before the accident, Data made a breakthrough discovery that he possesses innate android emotions, previously overlooked in his quest to be more human. Data must grapple with his new awareness of these mental states, adding to a program he has been writing to evoke human-style emotional responses as he interprets their meanings over time.
The alternative universe crew of the Enterprise provides ample opportunity for Data to explore his feelings in general, and about his best friend in particular.

Summary
Data overhears something in Ten Forward and thinks that maybe the thing holding him back from being more human is his appearance.
- At that moment a duo of engineering ensigns enter the bar, taking seats at the counter. One of them looks over his shoulder, making fleeting eye contact with Data. If Data is correct there was something other than a friendly glance in that look.
“God it's here again!” One of the ensigns whispers to his friend. If not for Data’s comparatively enhanced hearing he may not have picked up on it.
“It’s just so creepy, and I can’t believe that everyone expects me to treat it like it’s actually a person!”
Looking around, Data confirms that he is in fact the only non-human life form in Ten Forward besides Guinan. Were they talking about him? He believes that Deanna would call this “gossip.”
“Seriously, if it wants to be human so badly why doesn’t it try a little harder to look the part?” -Bookmarked by SolWriter

Summary
A famous human comedian from twentieth century Earth once said; “life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot”.
What strikes Data as most peculiar about that quote, is the lack of definitive parameters it establishes for when the transition occurs.
For example; how distantly does Data’s life have to be viewed before it is no longer a tragedy?Inspired by “I will Attempt to be a ‘Good Prisoner’”. This is an AU one-shot where Data was found on Omicron Theta by the Romulans, instead of Starfleet.
