Star Trek: Voyager: Q-ness by: Hoshi
I don't own anyone.
Tom Paris looked up from his console. He got off bridge duty in three minutes. Today had been boring. It looked like calm space all the way to the Alpha Quadrant, but he knew that couldn't last.
Captain Janeway finished her third cup of coffee as Tom walked in.
"Report," she said.
"The ship's in top working order," he said. "Since everything is going so well..."
Tom was cut off because just then Q appeared.
"Janeway to bridge, intruder alert!" she said pressing her commbadge.
"Don't bother. They can't hear you," said Q.
"What do you want now Q!?!" she said.
"Captain," he said taken aback. "Can't I pop in for a visit once and a while?"
"No," said the captain.
"Fine, have it your way," he said and vanished.
"Torres to the captain" she heard B'Elanna's voice say over the commbadge. "The warp core just shut down."
The captain sighed. This was going to be a long day.
Q reappeared . "Now will you listen?" he said.
"Fine," Janeway replied.
"Will you baby-sit my son?" asked Q.
"N--," Janeway began.
"O.K. thanks bye" he said and vanished. In his place was a toddler Q.
