Title: Whatever Will Be, Will Be
Author: Seanchaidh
Characters: Joanna McCoy, Jocelyn Darnell McCoy, Leonard McCoy, Jim Kirk, Winona Kirk, Christine Chapel, OMC
Fandom: AOS
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: None
Word Count: 6959
Summary: Joanna McCoy believes she's doomed to repeat her parents' mistakes.
Notes: From the where_no_woman Mother's Day Fest prompt: "#13. After watching her parents' marriage fall apart, Joanna isn't sure she ever wants to get married or have a baby of her own." Inspired by many wonderful women I know, and specific thanks to sternel, canis_takahari, paraka (yay! for out of the box thinking), fen_grenfell, abigail89, and enkanowen.

The title comes from the refrain of "Que Sera Sera" by Doris Day. The classics never die.

Summary: One of the newest crew members of the ISS Enterprise sends back her initial impressions of serving aboard to Terra and her mother. Lieutenant Joanna Darnell-McCoy is no ordinary crew member. Her mother isn't a stay-at-home mom either.

A/N: My second foray into the mirror verse and again featuring that little vixen Joanna Darnell-McCoy. She isn't as innocent as she seems, but then again in the mirror verse who is really who they seem to be?

Welcome to where_no_woman's April 5th drabblefest! This round of prompts are all taken from the guiding principles of Ferengi culture, far from Federation law: the Rules of Acquisition! Ferengi business is conducted solely* by men, solely in the pursuit of profit (currency: latinum), so I trust you will all be ready to use your imagination and think metaphorically where terms like "man" and "profit" are concerned. A Ferengi would be first to congratulate you for finding loopholes. Remember, everyone is invited to participate and any Star Trek canon is fair play!

Rules of Drabblequition:

1) Prompts are not exclusive. There is no limit on the number of people who may write about a prompt, and there is no need to claim prompts.

2) Post responses in the comments and include the lead character and your prompt in the subject line. If you choose a long prompt, you may use just the first few words.

3) Responses may be any length from a proper 100-word drabble to a multi-chapter epic. If the story is too long for comments, you may post it elsewhere and comment with the link.

4) There is no time limit for this challenge. I will return to index the responses in a week or so.

5) Please leave feedback, respond to feedback, and advertise this post around.

6) If your response is rated NC-17 or would require a content warning (for rape, graphic violence, etc.), you may post it in the comments here but you must include the relevant rating or warning in the subject line.

(First off, I'm sorry I'm posting these so late in the day! It's been a long, frankly horrible Monday, and I also might have maybe also been under the false impression that it was only the 14th. :\ (It's still the 15th in some time zones, right?))

This month's prompts are various quotes, poem stanzas, and song lyrics that I've been collecting in my notebook for the past several notes. They're just things that caught at me; there's no real theme whatsoever (other than the fact that they're all taken from things I've read or have been listening to recently). Happy Writing!
