Title: Girl Talk
Author: KC, Kcdove1013@aol.com
Reason/Excuse/Explanation: My muses made me do it!
Dedication/Author's note: Ninth for my Strange Bedfellows universe. This one is Nora's first pair. The Strange Bedfellows universe is rather simple. I have a list of people who I would enjoy having clones of. From this list(s) you can pick a SLASH (female/female or male/male) pair and I'll try and write it. The catch is, the characters can't be from the same universe/fandom. Like, you could pick Zechs/Giles, but not Giles/Spike. Get it? No? Too bad!
Pair: Uhura/Scully
Rating:
Scully shook her head, walking away from Mulder determinedly while muttering. The man just didn't appreciate her, even after she'd been taken for so long and nearly killed so often. She vaguely acknowledged that she should be angry with KC, as the girl was the one with control over everyone's personalities, but it wasn't as satisfying to mutter at someone who treated every insult as a compliment.
She paused in the hallway she was currently standing in and felt a flicker of amusement. She didn't even know where she was going. She turned down one of the side halls and sighed when she found the library. She shook her head. Yesterday the library had been off the main common room and now it had relocated itself? She wondered how KC's mind worked...
She looked around the room absently before seeing Moby Dick set on one of the end tables. She settled in the couch and started to read.
Twenty pages and a close encounter of the nautical kind later, she was pulled from her book by the somewhat furtive entrance of a dark skinned woman. She raised an eyebrow, "Problem?"
The woman shook her head, but grinned. Her voice, when she spoke, had an almost smooth edge to it. "I'm just staying out of the way for a while...I started a prank war with this kid...got the weirdest hair, a braid down to his butt..."
Scully blinked, processed that, and grinned, "I take it you just unleashed a prank..."
Chocolate eyes watched her innocently before the look fell away to one of mischief. "Would I do that?"
"Hm.." She shook her head and smiled. "Dana."
The other woman settled down next to her and grinned. "Uhura..." Then she bit her lip. "You seem like a nice enough girl, Dana...would you like to come to my room tonight? I haven't had any decent girl talk in so long...and the ones that I usually meet up with are generally...air headed. They're pretty and not much else."
Uhura's eyes had turned pleading and Scully couldn't resist laughing. "That sounds nice." She cocked her head, nodding. "And I know what you mean...my partner seems to attract the type."
A flicker of what she thought was dismay showed in Uhura's eyes. "Oh, you're with someone?"
Scully thought about it for a minute, then shrugged. "Currently? No." She studied Uhura for a moment before smiling slightly, closing her book and standing. "Maybe we could start this girl talk early?"
Uhura laughed, following example and standing as well. "I'd love to, Dana."
