HE LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVES!
...or maybe not. Wow, how long have I been gone? At least a year...
Anyways, I've been having the creative juices flowing for a Star Wars-Star Trek crossover recently, so here it is!
This little chapter at the beginning is gonna be my notes dump, so they're not all over the story.
Star Trek is owned and copyrighted by Paramount Pictures and CBS Pictures.
Star Wars is owned and copyrighted by The Walt Disney Company and 20th Century Fox.
Non-story notes:
Are you gonna finish (insert story name here)?
No, I'm probably not going to continue any of my other stories. Don't ask.
Where's Walk of the Dead?
I have no idea. It just poofed away one day.
Why did you change your name?
Because I wanted this profile to fit in with my other internet holdings. Except that one site. I'm not affiliated with that site.
General Story notes
In terms of Star Trek: This story takes place between "Yesterday's Enterprise" and "The Offspring" during season... 3?
In terms of Star Wars: This story takes place about 13 years after Episode III and about 6 years before Episode IV.
The Stardates: I got the stardate info from trekguide dot com, via the Star Trek wiki. The stardate at the beginning of the story is not accurate, having occurred 3 hours before the actual events. It's 10:00 PM when the night shift begins, based on my own inferences.
Teaser notes
What is a teaser? The teaser is generally the segment that begins the episode, and occurs before the title sequence.
Why isn't Wesley at the Conn? It's late. His mommy told him to go to bed. (Or maybe I don't want him in my story just yet. Either could be possible.)
Why wasn't Geordi already in Engineering? Because people need sleep? Don't worry, he was just reading and get ready for bed. He dashed for Engineering when the ship started shaking.
What's in the drink Guinan gave the Captain? Sleepy stuff.
Why didn't the red alert continue when the power returned? The computer was reset or something. It cancelled the alert by itself.
Act One notes
How is it Captain Picard doesn't go to sleep because of the sleepy stuff? Between delivering the data to the labs and returning to the bridge, he told Guinan he needed the sleepy stuff out of his system, and she obliged.
Why is Dr. Crusher on the bridge? She wanted to coordinate her nurses from a central position.
Why does the Star Destroyer has gantry-work on top? Because it's not a Victory-II Class, it's a Victory-I class, the kind that chased the Tantive IV at the beginning of A New Hope.
What does ISV stand for? Imperial Space Vessel. It's like USS for the Empire.
How could the Star Destroyer's weapons just be absorbed by the shields? Because the shields take lasers extremely well.
Why do the phasers cut the SD in two? Because the shields don't take phasers well at all.
Why is part two so short? No idea. It just is.
Hey, thanks for reading! If you liked this story, why don't you favorite it? And if you want more, why don't you follow it or check out my other stories?
Got something you need to say about this story? Review it and let me know! I'll take a look at it!
If there are any questions in the reviews, I will answer them in a PM and then add them here (if they're practical, like "Why did so-and-so happen?", not "What'll happen next?")
