Rating: R
Summary: For the ENT prompt: How did Hoshi Sato die on Tarsus.
Notes/Warnings: As you might guess from the prompt, Major character death (suicide). Vulcan is the best I can approximate based on the available online resources, ditto Klingon. The French is my own lousy translation. Beta by shinychimera and rusting_roses.
Disclaimer: All characters and settings belong to their proper owners. I'm just playing in their sandbox.

( Federation Standard, Hoshi Sato thinks, twisting her hair into a simple knot, does not have a good word for what she is about to do. )

A really random note: At the time of this fic, Hoshi is approximately 117 years old.

I'm currently working on my first (of three, yikes) fics for the First Annual Ficathon; "How did Hoshi Sato die on Tarsus." It's mostly finished, but I could really use a beta. Would anyone be interested?

Thanks, rusting_roses!

Welcome to June's Drabblefest, The Story Dice Drabblefest.

What are Story Dice you may ask? They're the stock plots that action/adventures series run on. As you look at the list below, think of all the times you've seen that plot or a variation of that plot on one of your favourite series. They have become clichés precisely because they never get old, and always illuminate different aspects of characters and their relationships. Think about how much fun they are, and how they can change from show to show. For example, what would be a tragedy in one series would be an hysterical comedy on another. Or, if you're Farscape, BOTH. Think about how different "Turnabout Intruder" might have been had it been Kira who suddenly found herself in a Gul Dukat's body. Or "The Enemy Within" if Number One had been split in half--logical and efficient on one side, sultry and violent on the other... And who doesn't love a Trek twist on "The Prince and the Pauper"?

All of the examples below after the name of the prompt itself are guidelines--feel free to interpret the prompts creatively!

The Rules:

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.

The rules are not suggestions. They are not guidelines. They are not optional. They are in fact rules, so please follow them, folks!
