James T. Kirk

Kirk wasn't entirely sure what the night was going to end up like, but he had some ideas if the party was to say anything. The fact that Bill had agreed to a dinner date at all, when Kirk gave him a definite out on it, was a very pleasant surprise. The way the actor had come straight onto him, even a bit more strongly then Jim himself, and how he had been oh-so-happy to continue once Kirk had known the truth? Fuck, that had been hot.

He wondered how much Jim and Bill differed, if at all. After all, if Bill had acted as Jim all that time...

It reminded him of what Leonard had mentioned in their communications before the Buick had brought the three to the ship. About how someone had acted as him... someone named Chris Pine.

Kirk glanced over his shoulder and rubbed his chin. He had ordered up from the galley, remembering some mention about Bill being... what the hell was it called? Kosher, he was pretty sure. Or was it vegetarian? Kosher required looking up in the end so he knew what it was, and ordered with a bit of a wariness he hadn't expected. How someone could live with guidelines on food like that he had no idea, but after actually looking into it found out it was some sort of religious (cultural?) thing. Which of the two he wasn't entirely sure, but hoped like hell dinner met whatever restrictions Bill put on himself.

Looking back to the console, he saw he still had a bit of time. So he tapped a finger beside the screen, then started to type. How on earth the ship's computers had hooked up through time and space to the 21st century he had no idea, but the whole system reminded him of the galactic network. So, with a bit of an anxious feeling, he pulled up the search page.

Actor: Chris Pine

It pulled up a huge amount of results, making Kirk bite his lip. Did he really want to see this? Some other guy who, if the similarities between Jim and Bill could said anything, would look just like him? He hesitated over the links, licked the lip he had just bitten, and clicked images first.

A few clicks later on the very first image had him stunned. "...Fuck." Kirk breathed out, staring down at the image. It was like looking in the mirror. He actually reached out and ghosted his fingers across the screen, completely stunned. There was no way they could have an image of him from so long ago, so it wasn't a mistake. There was a man from two centuries ago that looked just like him.

As Kirk stared at the Wikipedia page for Chris Pine, he completely lost track of the time.

nu!Kirk: Slowly Kirk walked up to the front of the assembly, looking damn fine in his dress uniform of course. Very captainly. He could not keep the grin from his face as he looks out over the massive amount of people there, his entire crew and who knew how many others from other dimensions, worlds, and universes.

 "Today marks our final day in orbit over Risa, and the end of our shore leave. It marks our next great adventure, with new members of crew, new guests on board, and changes that we've all had to deal with.

I know that it has been strange, even for people used to exploring distance worlds and species and anomalies. People have been appearing out of no where, back from the dead, from other times, and even duplicates of ourselves."

Didn't glance at Jim. Nope.

"But today, I stand before you to bring to light what several members of our crew did in a moment of terrible tragedy, and to formally bring in those who have decided to join our crew."

A look to Uhura and nu!Scotty standing nearby. "Nyota Uhura, Montgomery Scotty, and Pavel Chekov would you join me up here?"
