Thanks, everyone! I was a little nervous because this is the first Trip/T'Pol piece I've ever written, so I'm glad you seemed to like it. Now I have the confidence to tackle something a little more serious next time!

I think the fun of this thread that you just write a story of the top of your head and it can be silly, funny or something else, like a writing practice and it is really funny to see so many different takes on the subject.

Yeah, basically I agree with you, but I dream of going pro one day, so even these pieces I do "just for fun", I look at as an opportunity to improve myself and/or try something new, so I almost never post anything without it being looked at by someone first. In this case, I figured I'm just getting my feet wet with these characters, so I just kinda went for it for the sake of getting started.

BTW
panysan, I wanted to tell you that I liked how yours focused on the sense of smell. It's a powerful sense--researchers even say that smells will trigger memories in people more than anything else--yet a lot of writers forget about that one, even though its power can really help to put a reader in a setting, or tell a reader something about a character without being obvious about it. Nice idea!
evcake Too funny! Poor Trip's gonna have to be poured into bed. The mental picture I got of T'Pol carrying Trip to sickbay was just...priceless!
Asso--Love is the drug, eh? Nice!
Wow, I hope more people post stuff!! This is so much fun, reading and re-reading what you all have posted so far!

I'm glad we decided to do this.
