Memo to self: if you start a fic and then abandon it for a year and half, possibly using that fic to sign up for a Big Bang challenge is not actually the brightest idea.

Anyway I somehow pulled this out entirely at the last minute. TOG/Star Trek crossover, like you do. Because the fun thing about The Old Guard is that futurefic crossovers don't even need to be AU.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Summary:

Future!fic. Humanity has spread out amongst the stars, and Nile and her team are struggling to figure out where they fit in: out in the furthest reaches of the galaxy, or home on Earth with those who still remain. Dreams of a new immortal don't exactly simplify matters.

"Think it's time to get the band back together?" Nile asks.

"As if Nicky or Joe would let us collect the new kid without them." Booker regards her steadily. "Think it'll be enough to get Quỳnh back on a ship?"

"Guess we'll find out. Because…"

She hesitates, as though saying it aloud will make it too real. So Booker says it for her.

"Because that desert was nowhere on Earth," he finishes. "And the girl in our dreams wasn't human."

So, I have committed girl!Kirk fic. I regret nothing.

Huge thanks to fiercynn and tassosss for the most excellent betas, and in particular for 1) not letting me skimp on the Kirk/Spock build-up and 2) correcting my totally bullshit science as much as possible given the stupid, stupid volcano scene in "Into Darkness".
