How It Began
A/N: This sort of takes place before Harbinger and after Tri'Pol start neuropressure ; )
P.S. Yes, I found a new name for them somewhere on the internet!
Disclaimer: Paramount owns it all…otherwise it would still be running…

Climate Control
"Well that was a…hot planet…"
Commanders Tucker and T'Pol were crunched in a shuttle pod for the third day in a row. They had been sent on an away mission to a deserted planet charted as Krut to gather geological information and both were going to be relieved to get back to the space of Enterprise.
"On the contrary Commander, I found the climate to be pleasantly warm. I have not been as comfortable in all of my experiences with the Expanse. "
"Well, I don't care what you say…that place felt as hot as Hades to me. I'm turning the AC on…"
"I fail to see the logic in comparing the climate of a planet to that of a mythical underworld… but I would rather that you increase the heat if you are intent on adjusting the climate controls."
"What? When we just came off an orbiting oven?"
Her eyebrows slowly started their climb…
"Oh forget it! I'm just saying, that place was a little too warm for my sweat glands to be comfy" As if to emphasize his point, he started flapping his shirt around in an attempt to create a non-existent breeze.
"I had noticed" T'Pol finished her point with her Eyebrow of Death.
"Oh yeah…I forgot you have that supersmell. I'll try not to waft around you too much.
"By the way…if that's comfortable for you, then you've got to be freezing on Enterprise!"
"I do feel somewhat uncomfortable in communal areas of the ship, but my own quarters…"
She was cut off abruptly by a loud and obnoxious beeping. Trip looked down at the console in time to see a cloud-like shape coming straight for them.
"Hey T'Pol, you should look at this…probably more in your line than m-"
Before he could finish, they were both consumed by a wave that went through the shuttle pod and knocked them out. Their shuttle drifted aimlessly in space as Trip and T'Pol drifted away into unconciousness.
