I thought that the Wesley introduction would piss alot of people off but he's a neccessity for my story and I want to explore more of his charcter and those funky abilities he was supposed to have. I beleive that any character can be salvaged no matter how poorly written. I took it upon myself as a challenge, let's see how well I do.

As for Gary Mitchell, he was the villain in "Where no Man has Gone Before" the Second ST pilot after the Cage. Kirk's first god kill. However it was always one of my favorites because Gary was Kirk's best freind and it was rather poignant. Always been a Gary Mitchell fan and he makes a perfect villain for my favorite Starfleet officer. And yes he is my avatar, for now.

All I ask is that you give Wesley a chance, he may surprise you.

Oh, and Charlie X was the villain (sort of) of the episode of the same name. This story is going to be LITTERED with TOS references...mostly because that's when Trek was truly Trek in my mind.

Like the story so far, just don't let Wesley f*ck it up and don't f*ck with Thrawn! Or i'll hang you up by the bura'zak-ka ( i'm beginning to say that a lot now)

The hell is that?

you mean bura'zak-ka ? Its a bit of Pratchett Dwarfish. Unfortunatly we can't actually hang people up by it here at SD.net. cookie for the person who knows why (apart from me)

Nitpick: If you ever officially post this, I'd recommend putting Lando in a beefed up Yacht like the Lady Luck. So far as I've been able to tell in the EU, he always flies armed shuttles/souped-up yachts/modified light frieghters/etc type craft. ALWAYS. Han you could've gotten away with since he flew TIEs at the academy and flew a Y-Wing at the Battle of Nar Shaddaa.

Well it's up in the ASVS Fanfic archive and i don't know anymore official than that. And since Lando is dead does it really matter?

Post by **Mr Bean** » 2002-10-20 03:22pm

Yes Lando flies Freightors but he got the Luck back after Endor and simple put he losts everything he had after Cloud City and I don't think the Allance had any other suped up frieghtors aviable to it to hand to him

Waiting for a new chapter...

And if anyone needs TOS characters explained, ask me. I know most of them.

Benefit of doubt gladly given. If anyone has a chance of pulling Wesley out of the mire of Trek whining he found himself in, it's you.

You know, I just had an interesting idea for a twist in this story. I think I'm going to shoot you a PM Stravo.

Seriously, guys, Stravo has clearly earned your trust, in this matter. Let him decide what is best for his own work. He's proven time and again that he is MORE than capable of figuring that out, in the past. Let him continue to decide where to go with this.

What about Q Junior?

You were watching the Voyager where Q had the baby today, weren't you.

UGH!! Q Junior will NOT be making an appearance. In fact I try to keep anything related to Voyager out of my work save for some key characters that I want to either: TORTURE AND MAIM or because I liked them (Tom Paris the ONLY Voyager character I liked) Hell it's Janeways fault that the Universe is collapsing in on itself.

BTW To all those that will immediately check this thread because you think I just posted a chapter...sorry

No worries Amneis Dust!

Bean never posts anything useful to the Fanfic must be a false Alarm

Be sure to wipe your own memory when you're through.

We should have a thread with Star Crossed itself, and a thread with Comments on Star Crossed. With the Star Crossed thread as a sticky.

I second the motion, and also would like to include Mark's fanfic as well.
