Summary
Pike hands over captaincy of his beloved ship... except not really, and certainly not gracefully.
Takes place after the promotion ceremony at the end of STXI.
Teaser: "Would you like a lemon?" Pike asks, and waves a king's gesture over the table. There's a dish of lemon wedges there, liberated from the hor d'oeuvres table or maybe ordered specially from the kitchen because he is Admiral Christopher Fucking Pike and you will cut up a lemon for him if he wants you to.
Jim does not particularly want a lemon but he'll take anything Pike offers. "Thank you," he says and picks out a thin slice, no seeds.
