“What did I get myself into,” Trip asked.

“You volunteered Trip. I was surprised you did,” Malcolm stated.

Malcolm Reed held the rank of lieutenant aboard the NX-01 Enterprise. He was the head of security and tactical officer.

Commander Charles Tucker III,”Trip” to everyone, is the Chief Engineer.

They became fast friends along their journey aboard the ship. Both are from different backgrounds with different interests, but they matched up well as friends.

“Why didn’t you stop me, Malcolm?” Trip asked.

“Far be it from me to stop you when you get that wound up,” Malcolm exclaimed.

“I wonder if I can get out of this. Maybe Dr. Phlox can say I’m not capable or maybe Chef will need me for a recipe,” Trip pondered.

“Dr. Phlox won’t say you are not fit for duty and a recipe? Captain Archer will laugh at you,” Malcolm said.

The pair reached the Mess Hall. Malcolm reached for pineapple upside down cake and Trip picked Key Lime Pie. They found a table and continued.

“There has to be a way . Do they have pets? Maybe I’m allergic.” Trip tried to come up with any idea he could, no matter how crazy it sounded.

Malcolm said, “Trip, face it. You volunteered. You can’t take it back, it’s only two days.”

“Then you do it Malcolm,” Trip shouted. He lowered his head when he realized how loud he said that. And the fact that the crew in the Mess Hall were looking at him.

“They don’t need or want a tactical officer. They requested someone in engineering,” Malcolm said, trying to hold back a laugh.

“I can’t do it. What was I thinking? What was I trying to prove?,” Trip wondered.

“You weren’t thinking. You responded to Sovals’ smugness,” Malcolm reminded Trip.

“You’re right Malcolm. Sometimes I don’t know when to keep my mouth shut,” Trip said in frustration.

Trip packed a bag and the next day the Enterprise rendezvoused with the Vulcan ship. Malcolm volunteered to bring Trip over on Shuttlepod One. The Vulcan ship would be Trip’s new home for the next seven days.

“Well, I can’t get out of it now. Wish me luck,” Trip told Malcolm.

Laughing, Malcolm said, “it’s only seven days. Good luck. I will tell chef to have pan fried cat fish ready for you when you get back, and some pecan pie.”

Trip got off the shuttle pod, ready to start the seven day adventure on board the Vulcan ship.

I like the idea presented by this 'teaser', RE. If, and when time allows, IMO, you should flesh this out into a conventional story. And, of course, for me, Trip is the man, in any case. I can just imagine a fellow of his all too human humaness aboard a ship full of Vulcans.
