Characters: Jett Reno, Tracy Pollard, Michael Burnham, Philippa Georgiou, Other(s) - mentioned

Tags: background Hugh Culber/Paul Stamets, Philippa Georgiou Lives, Season/Series 02 AU, I don't think the violence is that graphic but YMMV, better tag safe than tag sorry, Angst, Fluff, Humor, Mutual Pining, Slow Burn, Getting Together, Kissing, Away Missions, Flirting, Banter, gratuitous Shakespeare references, Food, Action, Firefights, Hand-To-Hand Combat, feat.

Summary: Surrounded, outnumbered, and out of contact with the Discovery, Tracy and Jett must fight back-to-back against hostile foes. But as both grapple with experiences from the war and all that has come after it—and Jett grapples with the realization of just how distracting it is when Tracy’s hand brushes her shoulder—it might turn out that salamander aliens are only the beginning of a complicated away mission…and, just maybe, the start of something new.

and I always will be: a Vanessa Abrams playlist (x)

Text version of the tracklist (and commentary) under the cut

1. “Follow My Feet,” The Unlikely Candidates. I think a lot about how Vanessa is the most moral character on this show.

1. “Follow My Feet,” The Unlikely Candidates. I think a lot about how Vanessa is the most moral character on this show.

2. “Mom,” broox. I've been feeling guilty/Cause I'm not what I could be/I wish that they could still see/I wish they understood me

3. “Mother & Father,” BROODS. I don’t want to wake up lonely/I don’t want to just be fine/I don't want to keep on hoping/Forget what I have in mind

4. “Here,” Alessia Cara. Upper East Side beloathed

5. “Activity Grrrl,” Joan Jett & the Blackhearts. She works real hard to try and make things right/To see if she can find a reason for what's wrong in life/She puts her thoughts into magazine form/And passes them all around her dorm

6. “American Idiot,” Green Day. Don’t wanna be an American idiot

7. “The Tower,” Vienna Teng. Someone who reaches out to my weakness/And won't let go/I need not to need/I've always been the tower

8. “Talkin’ Bout a Revolution,” Tracy Chapman. Maybe we didn’t get the Nate radicalization arc we deserved but Vanessa came pre-radicalized <3 Don't you know?/They're talkin' 'bout a revolution/It sounds like a whisper

9. “Everyday,” Toby Lightman. And I find myself in need of a pause/I'm not sure why, but I think that it's because/Of this desire to be what others want me to be/Which is nothing close to me

10. “Disconnecting,” William Control. Are you disconnecting?/Are you disconnecting inside?

11. “Too Many Faces,” Cherri Bomb. I’m just… vibing with Vanessa’s anger at the UES and what it makes out of people. Are you trying to hide behind a stupid lie/When the truth is in your eyes?

12. “All The King’s Horses,” Karmina. Free to go back on my own/But is it still a home/When you're all alone? Seriously tho this show screwed her over

13. “Dare You To Move,” Switchfoot. I dare you to move/I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor

14. “Seventeen Ain’t So Sweet,” The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. There's a fire in your eyes/And I hope you'll let it burn/There's a scream in your voice/And I hope you will be heard

15. “I’m a Human,” Flashlight Brown. I'm a human just like you/Full of doubt without a clue/Try and find a way to make it better

16. “I Wish The Guardian Believed That I Exist,” Grace Petrie. ‘Cause there's no such thing as a protest singer/We don't have none of those

17. “Message From Your Heart,” Kina Grannis. Your most devoted body part/Taking blood and making art

18. “Thank You For The Music,” ABBA. Man, it’s ABBA. Don’t question it

19. “Just A Girl,” No Doubt. Take this pink ribbon off my eyes/I'm exposed, and it's no big surprise:Don't you think I know exactly where I stand?

20. “Let You Down,” NF. I just think that Gabriela Abrams should’ve showed up more

21. “I’m Not Your Hero,” Tegan and Sara. But also like there’s this element of the way Vanessa was treated by fans, and of the way she was written off the show where she became a plot device/scapegoat and I just. Care a lot about her

22. “I Won’t,” AJR. On the other hand, she’s the one character who really just got to… cut their losses and start over successfully

23. “Downhill,” Lincoln. But given the way everything ended I think she would struggle with a lot of guilt? You’d probably think I’m an evil, broken person/And you would be right/Because I went downhill at such steep incline/That my rearview mirror showed me only the sky.

24. “Losing The Plot,” Alanis Morissette. Rip my heart out, ambition mill or bust/With my relevance in dust

25. “Your Ex-Lover Is Dead,” Stars. I listened to this and just… got to thinking about her meeting with Dan again, and the way that they must go such different places with their lives. Your ex-lover is dead <3

26. “Shake It Out,” Florence + the Machine. And I am done with my graceless heart/So tonight, I'm gonna cut it out and then restart

27. “Sunlight,” The Mowgli’s.

28. “Head Held High,” Kodaline. You need a little light to guide the way/Waiting on the sun to shine again

29. “I’m Alright,” Jo Dee Messina. It’s a good end kind of song. I got a good old friend here with me tonight/And I guess I'm doing alright

30. “Peace Train,” Yusuf. Cause out on the edge of darkness/There rides a peace train/Oh, peace train take this country

[starfleetdoesntfirefirst]

how about some meta about Jett Reno/Tracy Pollard, if you feel like it?

OKAY SO my thing with this ship is that. Both of them are both very sarcastic and very open/earnest at the same time. Specifically, as well as being fairly straightforward about who they are and what they want to do and what they believe, they each place a high value on life, human and otherwise, in this very...I guess I would call it a very sincere way.

In what I think of as Tracy’s defining-character moment, the sickbay scene with Michael and Chris in the ep in which the Sphere is introduced, Michael characterizes the Sphere’s interference with their systems as a “virus,” prompting Tracy to tell her, “You’re attaching a known medical diagnosis to an unknown entity”—a medical-division counterpart to Michael’s science-officer reminder to Chris only hours before that “it is premature” to characterize the Sphere as a malevolent “spider” without knowing more about it. 

It’s an incredibly Star Trek-y characterization of Tracy, but also a complex one. In context, she isn’t being “woo” about the sphere being potentially not as malevolent as it seems, but rather the opposite—the topic comes up because of her grim reminder to Michel and Chris that “life support’s down to 60% percent, but who’s counting?” which prompts Michael to argue that “it is not logical for a virus to kill its host” and Tracy to deliver her attaching-a-known-medical-diagnosis-to-an-unknown-entity rejoinder. In other words, Tracy is urging caution, and potentially an adversarial viewpoint, towards the current threat to the lives of her crew—but doing so through a framework that suggests an underlying openness to observation, discovery, and resisting easy assumptions about the universe around her.

Meanwhile, Jett has a similar balance of being simultaneously pragmatic, sarcastic, and sincere in her integrity. She stays behind to care for the critical-condition patients on the Hiawatha, and jumps into dangerous situations again and again on the Discovery, from the engineering explosion to the time crystal, putting herself at risk to protect the people around her (and, unlike say MICHAEL, seems to be doing so as someone fully able to fairly consent to risking herself, rather than being unduly influenced by guilt/depression/the attitudes and sometimes coercion of those around her--but, ahem, anyway.) And, in true Trek fashion, she even forms a bond with a lifeform much different from herself—aka Paul Stamets—as they navigate their annoyance with and deep care for each other (the “I still don’t like you” “it’s mutual” hand-clasping scene before Jett stays behind have her brain blasted by the time crystal? I WILL NEVER BE DONE HAVING FEELINGS ABOUT IT). Jett cares deeply about the lives of the people around her. But she isn’t about to be, like, gooey about it.

In addition, Jett and Tracy are both very competent, and clearly value and respect competence in others. Not to mention that they’d have a lot to talk about on a professional level re: Jett’s foray into field medicine. 

And, last but not but not least, as that one gifset points out (linking in a reblog so Tumblr doesn’t auto-hide this post from the character tags)... they can bond over being partners in one of the noblest pursuits starship crew can undertake: taking the piss out of their commanding officer when he gives them gratuitously redundant instructions.

-

Putting a divider here because all of the above is meta about canon, and the following is a headcanon, but: I will also mention that the backbone of my personal Tracy fanon is that she is innocent-until-proven-guilty of the Strap Michael To A Chair And Torture Her To Death Plan, and, as such, a big part of how I write her in fic is as someone who—like Culber with Lorca’s captaincy in s1 — is willing to be critical of systemic issues within Starfleet (or, at the least, to not take an active role in enabling them).

As well as being innocent-until-proven-guilty simply by virtue of not appearing in 2x10, I think this is a plausible extension of her canon character—no way would this thoughtful woman who cares so much about her patients and her colleagues and life in all its forms enable a plan to literally STRAP MICHAEL TO A CHAIR AND TORTURE HER TO DEATH—erm, sorry, still not over it. 

(Which, in fairness, is equally true of many of the characters who did appear in the ep going along with the plan, which is why I have to informally decide when writing any given character whether I’m writing something that is/is not consistent with tHE JOKE OF AN EPISODE THAT IS 2x10–okay, okay, I’m done now.)

Anyway, that headcanon is a big part of my own interpretation of Tracy’s character. I will go to the mat about Tracy having gotten as much canon characterization, by the end of season 2 as, say, Ellen Landry or Keyla Detmer did (said characterization is just less overtly noticeable because it’s largely professional and compassionate rather than antagonistic, and, in fiction, non-antagonistic characterization easily fades into the background as a default/non-characterization, despite the fact that—especially in a social setting as flawed as dsc’s Starfleet—it is anything but.) However, she is still very much a background character, so any major headcanons I come up with for her make a relatively large splash in how I individually write her.

As such, in my fanon, Tracy’s integrity and unwillingness to go along with the Time To Just Frickin’ Kill Michael plan is something that I see Jett being very attracted to/relieved by. Given that she’s someone who spent most of the war isolated away from Starfleet, I have to assume that Jett got one hell of a culture shock when she heard about what Starfleet had become (and/or had been revealed to be, depending on your interpretation—that degree of systemic violence and corruption Does Not Spring Up Overnight) by the time of her rescue. So, finding someone who sticks to what Jett thinks of as Starfleet values—compassion, integrity, openness—AND is extremely competent, AND is sarcastic? Jett probably has bluebirds fluttering around her head and little pink hearts in her eyes.

WELL after five ish years on and off on tumblr, I have finally achieved the classic tumblr milestone of accidentally deleting an ask as I was trying to answer it. Fortunately I remember the contents of the ask, which were @tincanspaceship sending a second word meme ask after I teased her that she should reroll to see if she could get something other than horrific angst, and she actually did so because she knew I was dying to share more and she is the actual best 💖 Here’s where “shining,” “beautiful,” and “smirk(s)/ed” appear in my upcoming fics...

-

The instrumental music in the background blends into Michael’s carefree laughter, and when Philippa fills her own glass and sits down, her eyes are shining bright enough to match the holographic candles.

-

Regardless of its causes, Jett’s time with Tracy has been a welcome respite from the sometimes wearing chill, and if Tracy happens to have the loveliest eyes on this side of the quadrant, well, getting to gaze into them is just a nice side benefit of spending time with her, and listening to her beautiful laugh, and—

-

Raising it in a toast, she looks around at each of them as she says, “To a beautiful occasion.”

-

Jett opens her eyes and lifts her free hand to brush her fingertips against the crown of Philippa’s head, smoothing her beautiful hair.

-

“While wearing the badass bruises to prove it,” Jett says, smirking. “Think Nhan and Georgiou will start listening to me about not blowing their shuttle engines past max now that I’m a bonafide enemy-punching badass?”

-

+ 3 shining, 1 beautiful, and 1 smirk [redacted] for spoilers :}

send me words and I’ll post any lines from my upcoming WIPs that include them!
