Category: "Other Couples" (not J/C)
 
Humor:

I want My Pip

It's not fair, Jenny.
I do my job – died five times.
Mama likes Tom best.



Romance:

Tahiti

Warm sea breeze, soft sand.
The sun hot on naked skin.
"Flyboy, oil my back."



Mary Sue:

Neelix's New Love

"So beautiful, smart…
Mary, you're a lifesaver!"
"Yeah, and I cook too."



NC17:

One Soul

I would breathe her in 
if I could; make our joining
more than flesh.  One soul.



Action/Adventure:

Captain, You're Toast! 

"Arachnia, stop!
I will thwart your evil plan!"
"Not this time, Proton!"



Angst:

Tom's Second Command

I let them kill Durst;
take him away to butcher.
I'll keep Torres safe. 



AU: 

Faces: Klingon or Human?

Now there's two of me.
Always wanted a sister…
I'm the pretty one!



Crew Conspiracy:

The Shuttle Trip (Day of Honour)

"Trust me, Joe  (Sev), we rig 
the test and eject the core;
they're stuck together!"



Holiday:

Day of Honour

Moklor! What an ass!
And Tom can shove his painsticks!
I've honour enough.



Post Ep:  (The Cloud – P/T)

She Thinks I'm a Pig

She called me a pig!
In front of Janeway…. wonder
if she likes bacon?


J/C Haikus:
 
 
Action/Adventure:

Captain, We're Toast!

"Arachnia, help!
We must thwart his cunning plan."
"Just this once, Proton!"



Holiday:

Prixin: Celebration of Family

My father's mother's
brother's aunt, once removed…  Heck,
Chak, pour me some wine!



Romance:

Shift Change

Tell her!  Tell her now! (Today, I'll tell her…)
"The bridge is yours, and my heart
if you want it."  "Yes."



NC17:

Consummation

His belly tightened
as liquid heat spread through him
in a rush of flame.



Mary Sue:

Lieutenant Kathryn Janeway

I'm smart.  I dance too. 
My hair flows in long red waves.
I should be captain.



Post Ep:

Betrayal (Prime Factors)

He did it for me?!
I should have ripped his pip off!
…we need to go home.



Crew Conspiracy:

Playing the Captain Like a Fiddle

If we teach Neelix
how to make coffee, we eat
real food not rations!



AU:

The Captain's Lady 

Guess I'm Maquis now…
Never thought I would look so
damn good in leather!



Humor:

Wanna See My Medicine Bundle?

"Akoochimoya…"
"The WORST pick-up line ever!"
"It worked, didn't it?"



Angst:

Admiral Janeway

Too late to save Joe,
too late to stop Chakotay
falling for Seven.



 

The end.
