Drabble like a Tribble prompts

Drabbles. I will update periodically with new prompts, though they won't always be in a new chapter. Check back often if you want to keep up. Feel free to suggest prompts/ideas by way of reviews or private message. I'd love to hear from you!

42. Jelly

Jelly - Ebony Starstorm

Kevin Riley's legs had gone past the point of jelly and simply collapsed under him. He lay motionless until he felt his skin beginning to burn. He sat up slightly and dragged himself toward the only shred of shelter he could see. With some contorting, he could fit most of his body in the shade. He fell asleep, not expecting to wake up again.

Nurse Chapel hovered over Riley, safely esconced in sickbay. He was severely dehydrated, suffering from exposure and heat stroke. He'd been lost on the desert planet for several days. The Enterprise had found him just in the nick of time. He would be waking up any minute and Christine took some satisfaction in knowing hers would be the first face he saw.

A/N: I'm not sure I can drabble properly anymore. Roleplay blogs have taken over my life and that changes my view of characters a litte bit. I'm also stuck posting from a tablet, so if I make ridiculous amounts of typos, that's why.
