I went into Starfleet though I was a good ten years older than most of my classmates. And I listened hard to the teachers. I was strong on theory, but they'd been out there.

"A ship is a living thing," they told us, "with a crew for hands, a captain for a brain, and a doctor for a heart. You have to pump hard to keep a ship alive."

But this ship had a brain when we came aboard, and damned if I haven't been demoted to liver. The Enterprise already has a heart, and his name is Jim Kirk.

Great line, and so true!


(You and I met in [livejournal.com profile] browngirl's journal, where we recently had a conversation about librarians. I'm WeirdLittleStories (http://archiveofourown.org/users/WeirdLittleStories) on AO3, where I first saw this story, but I came here to comment on it.)
