003: ACCIDENTAL VISUAL//LOCATION: ENTERPRISE BRIDGE [i feel like a monster]

[ltnuhura.livejournal.com]

If anyone were watching Uhura step onto the bridge of the Enterprise, they wouldn't have assumed that anything was amiss. And nothing was, until the doors slid shut behind her and she took a look around.

This wasn't the bridge she knew. It looked the same, but there were things about it that were...off. But she couldn't put her finger on why things weren't right, and it irritated her.

Frowning, she started heading over to her station, then stopped suddenly and looked down at herself. And what was wrong there was more obvious - this wasn't the right uniform at all. The skirt was the right length, but it was all one dress, not the midriff-baring top and skirt she was used to.

She looked up and around, trying to find some more clues that would tell her where she was and what was happening. And then she spotted it on the main viewscreen.

"NCC 17-01?" Her disgust and anger was ill-disguised, hands clenched into fists as her eyes narrowed. "U.S.S. Enterprise? What the hell is happening here?"

[OOC: uhura's finally been glitched! she is now the mirror version of herself, meaning she'll be quick to anger and that there's the possibility of her getting aggressive/violent, but i will be sure to clear things with you before she does anything to your character. proceed with caution and have fun. :)

also, my apologies for taking so long to get this up and thanks for your patience! ♥]

Her fists her wound into his jacket and she took advantage of his sudden stumbling, pushing him through the doorway and towards the couch.

Lost in the moment, Kirk allowed this, falling back onto the couch and taking her down with him so that she ended up sort of in his lap. For now, the kissing continued, but his mind was quickly catching up to what was going on and with someone it shouldn't.

This was familiar territory, even if it had been a while since she'd traveled it with him. Her kisses were rough and searing, hips rolling a bit as she pushed his jacket off his shoulders.

It was when Kirk drew back from the kiss enough to murmur the name of a woman he wasn't kissing but should be -- "Buffy." -- that he fully realized what he was doing. He was kissing Uhura and she was currently trying to get his jacket off him.

He seized her wrists to stop her from doing just that, maneuvering her off of him and onto the couch next to him, promptly standing and moving a few steps away to put some distance between them before whirling on her and demanding, "What the hell just happened?"

Buffy? Who was she? Some yeoman?

Uhura wasn't angry. Yet. She was more confused than anything else.

"Nothing that hasn't before," she said slowly, as if she was trying to remind him. Or speaking to an idiot.

Confused? Kirk was the one who was confused. Uhura didn't like him and certainly not in this way (or so he thought) and suddenly she wanted in his pants? It didn't make any sense to him, nor did that random instinct to kiss her out of the blue like that. God, Spock was going to kill him. Buffy was going to kill him. All her talk of how horrible relationships had gone for her in the past and he goes and does this and he can't even say for sure why he did it.

"Nothing has happened before," he told her, firmly. "There was that accidental groping during that bar fight four years ago, but that doesn't even count. You're with Spock and I'm with Buffy. This... This isn't something that should be happening. At all."

"Yes, it has," she insisted, though she held her hands up as she stood, showing she had no intention to do it again. "But if you don't want it to happen right now, fine. I'm just wondering why you started something if you had no intention of following through."
