Christine decides to accompany La'an across the galaxy while trying to help Oriana find her family. On their quest they face many difficulties including an accidental marriage that becomes too real, and one certain Commander Chin-Riley who has too much fun with this knowledge.
Following Chapel & La'an post s01e05. The story follows on from 'Fully Aware,' 'Warm Air Like Treacle' and 'And Hope To Die', which provide some context but aren't essential reading.
Erica knows how to distract Una from her problems.
Once the physical injuries from Talos healed, Chris moved on. He met someone special and each time the moment was right he pulled back. Unwilling to trust himself. Unsure if the attraction and his feelings were real. Then he realized or rather admitted the Talos incident was more than kidnapping, imprisonment, and mind-control. And that perhaps there was no way back.
A reimagined or 'filled-in' take of Una's imprisonment on Kiley 279 from her and Pike's point of view. Both think back to the beginnings of their relationship. Pike/Una This piece contains spoilers for Strange New Worlds episodes 1 and 3.
An alternate ending to Ghosts of Illyria. And perhaps the beginnings of Pike and Una finding their way back to each other told through a series of extra scenes and codas for Strange New Worlds Season 1. Pike/Una
Continuing Chapel & La'an from 'Fully Aware' and 'Warm Air Like Treacle' into s01e04.
Captain Pike has a cold and needs TLC. His response to any minor illness flows through four stages – denial, resistance, acceptance, and cranky. Or is more going on? Established relationship. Pike/Reader. Cameos from various Enterprise and Discovery characters.
The presented future was accepted, the time crystal secured. Control was defeated, first when Discovery towed the sphere and its data to the future, finally when Enterprise destroyed the remnants Control left behind. The battles are won, the losses mourned. Pike must now face the costs of his choice on Boreth. Pike/Aalin
La'an and Christine wake up on an unknown, but ominously-familiar planet and quickly discover they're being hunted.
After the Gorn attack left the Enterprise damaged and with a list of casualties, Christine is shaken. Finding Christine, La'an is there for her and helps her sort through her emotions, providing a few distractions and offering to stay with her for the night.
La'an wakes from another nightmare.
"You've both proven excellent examples as to why most medical personnel don't take much stock in 'I'm fine'." - La'an makes a late-night visit to Sickbay. (Tag to 1x04 "Memento Mori")
Gravely injured and in a coma, Number One relives meeting Christopher Pike and their journey to becoming one of the most respected and formidable command teams in the fleet.
Christine is sick and La'an plays nurse.
A glimpse into the private moments of living with a future believed to be unavoidable. No Strange New World spoilers. This has been stuck in my head for a while. You may find parts of this sad. I think the ending is positive. Established relationship. Chris/Aalin
La'an goes to sickbay with a medical emergency and Christine is there to take care of her. Not leaving her side, she makes sure La'an is comfortable during her recovery.
This is where I imagine the events of Fully Aware would take Chapel & La'an after s01e03.
Nurse Chapel & La'an. The sickbay scene from s1e1, but reimagined with actual medical ethics.
