@aviophobic answered this ask!!

Her bottom lip is wobbling as she struggles to look her father in the eye. For a 13 year old, Joanna still has some brief moments of behaving as though she were years younger, but those flashes don’t come through very often unless she’s around Leonard. Their argument had been one of these flashes, and she’s full of regret for the things that she’d said. 

“I don’t wanna go back t’ Aunt Donna’s yet.”

              THE DOOR OPENS AND WITH it, no one reacts, or at least not Spock—face blank and with little expectation beyond that she might arrive—as he clips a field belt around his waist and gathers his tricorder. The knowledge of who she is—Nurse McCoy—was, in hindsight, quite reasonable, and given her appearance, just now, hurried, perhaps startled—Spock is uncertain—he thinks they, she and her father, are more alike than she might care to admit. “Indeed, Nurse.” He says, snapping his tricorder closed. Spock slips it into his holster, then motions for the other members of the landing party to begin beaming down, “You were assigned to our survey mission,” satisfied with his preparations, he turns, looking to her face; surely, he ponders, observing almost expectantly with the near rise of his brow, she has not forgotten, only—apparently—misinformed, “Of which, we have begun.” Spock steps up to the transporter pad, and angles his chin, “Will you still be joining us?”

She’s still frazzled, but Joanna regains her composure quickly as she takes her place on the transporter pad. She hadn’t exactly forgotten about the mission today, but Joanna’s sense of time still wasn’t quite used to space hours. The cues from the sun being gone hadn’t fully sunken in for her, which had meant she’d been slightly late taking breaks or figuring out where she needed to be.

“Of course, Commander.” She says with a smile, gesturing to the small med-kit that was slung on her shoulder. “I wasn’t too far when y’ called.” A small white lie, but she doesn’t want to get into anyone’s bad books, especially not when she’s finally been called for her first proper mission in the field without her father watching over her. “I’ve been lookin’ forward to it.”

IT WAS CLEAR HE WAS NOT IMPRESSED BY HER LATENESS, giving her a deadpan stare. Was that really all she had to say for herself? That would not do. She would have to pull her weight around here if she wanted to remain in this little ‘project’ of his.

❝ Where have you been? You missed the practice run and I’m going to need EVERYONE here and putting on their best show if I’m to pull this off. ❞

A heavy sigh leaves her, and her shoulders cave in. “I’m sorry, Quentin.” She mumbles, though it doesn’t take a genius to work out the apology is more reluctant than anything else. “Won’t happen again.” Molly was never one for being prompt when the circumstances didn’t require it, but she knew a job opportunity like this didn’t come up very often. It challenged her, and it allowed her to remain somewhat anonymous. “This means a lot to me.”

“Allergic?” Ophelia questions, frowning a bit before she takes a sip of her coffee. Odd, she thought she was too honestly, though why she kept possibly allergic pills in her bag, she wasn’t sure. It just felt right to say at the time, offering something to help fix the mistake she caused. “Me too… I think.”

The other girl couldn’t have the same types of symptoms as her, could she? Slight amnesia and parts of her life not feeling right. Though if they both thought they knew each other before, maybe they were on to something here. But it could just be coincidence with seeing familiar faces on campus.

“The ginger hair does kinda stand out a bit, doesn’t it?” Phee laughed a bit, shaking her head slightly. “I’m new too. Well, fairly new. What are you studying then? I’m going into poli-sci.”

Odd. Shared allergies. Could be another thing for the pair to bond over, Susan thinks with a smile. “I haven’t fully decided yet, I’m still working on a particular specialism which is why I’ve ended up on a foundation year for sciences,” She says, taking a sip of her coffee. “I think I’m probably going to go into astronomy, though. It uses mathematics, physics, and chemistry, and it means that I get to stare at the night sky for hours on end.” Susan giggles. 

“Ginger hair stands out very noticeably, not that that’s a bad thing. My hair’s quite boring in comparison.” The blonde was strong, and Susan had considered turning it silver on many an occasion, just for the fun of it, just for a laugh. It might make her feel a little less like she stood out, if she could do something that might make her feel normal.

Her face is a picture. “Thanks.” The stuff she puts up with in this job that she went out and got willingly.

[vocesmvltis]

theresastargirl​:

“All-nighter? Yeah, you definitely need some more coffee. I’ll get you a double shot and all than. I know that feeling too well.” Ophelia smiles a bit, still recovering from her last all-nighter she pulled the other night. “I’ll be right back then.”

With that, the girl stepped up to the counter to order two coffees for them, all while trying to figure out why she couldn’t quite place the other girl. Sure they had probably passed each other around campus. It was bound to happen. Or maybe she just had one of those faces, but it felt like something more than that. 

Phee rejoined her a moment later, carrying over two tall to-go coffee cups and gently setting them on the table. “Right, there you go. I’m really sorry still. Do you want any aspirin or anything for that? I might have some in my bag…” The bag that rudely awoke her in the first place. “I’m Ophelia, by the way. Think I’ve seen you ‘round before though.”

She smiles at the other girl, appreciative for the gesture. The coffee, and maybe a bit of conversation would help her to stay awake for a bit longer. It might even help her make another friend around here. Susan had a couple of classmates that she spoke to when they happened to be next to each other in lessons, but there was no one that really went out of their way to speak to her.

Aspirin. I’m allergic. I think?? Bits of Susan’s memory came in flashes, odd little details that were so bizarre but so strong, she didn’t question them. “I don’t think I can have aspirin.” She mumbles as she brings the coffee cup closer to her. Her lips are pursed as she considers it for a few moments longer. “It’s difficult to know whether I can have it or not when you’ve got a memory like mine.” She jokes, finally directing her attention from the coffee cup back to the other girl’s face.

“I’m Susan, I feel like I’ve probably seen you around before, too.” She adds with a smile. She doesn’t like opening with a line about her true ‘back story’, she prefers waiting for it to come up in conversation later on down the line, when they know her personality a bit better, whatever that is. “I’m a new student.”

Hearing the bang from behind her, Ophelia immediately knew her over-filled messenger bag was the cause of the rather loud thud. She bit her lip, closing her eyes tightly as she froze for a second before spinning around her heels to get a better look at the once sleeping girl. Wasn’t she in class with her? History or something? She looked familiar at least.

“I am… so so sorry about that. I was trying not to be clumsy but… god, is your head okay? Do you need me to grab some ice?” She asks quickly, praying she didn’t give the girl a concussion. “At least let me buy you another coffee to make up for that rude awakening?”

Susan laughs softly, wiping her eyes and shaking her head. “It’s fine, honestly, it’s my own fault for deciding to fall asleep here instead of going back to my dorm, but I’m really trying to power through after an all-nighter.” She explains, rubbing the spot on her forehead. It didn’t feel too bad.

“I shouldn’t need any ice, but a coffee definitely wouldn’t go amiss.” The fact that she recognises the girl is bothering her, because while Susan isn’t fantastic at placing faces, she really feels like she knows the girl. There’s something about her that’s making Susan’s head spin more than the lack of sleep. “Then maybe I’ll remember where I know you from.”

THE 1

i’m doing good, i’m on some new shit

and if you wanted me, you really should’ve showed

but we were something, don’t you think so?

and if my wishes came true, it would’ve been you

in my defence, i have none

but it would’ve been fun if you would’ve been the one

if one thing had been different, would everything be different today

CARDIGAN

when you are young they assume you know nothing

i knew you

baby kiss it better

you put me on and said i was your favourite

a friend to all is a friend to none

chase two girls, lose the one

you drew stars around my scars

but now i’m bleeding

tried to change the ending

i knew you’d haunt all of my what-ifs

cause i knew everything when i was young

and i knew you’d come back to me

THE LAST GREAT AMERICAN DYNASTY

how did a middle class divorcée do it?

there’s only so far new money goes

their parties were tasteful, if a little loud

there goes the last great american dynasty

who knows, if she never showed up what could’ve been

she had a marvellous time ruining everything

there goes the most shameless woman this town has ever seen

she stole his dog and dyed it key lime green

i had a marvellous time ruining everything

EXILE

i can see you standin’ honey

and it took you five whole minutes to pack us up and leave me with it

i think i’ve seen this film before

you’re not my homeland anymore

now i’m in exile seein’ you out

i can see you starin’ honey

like you’d get your knuckles bloody for me

those eyes add insult to injury

i’m not your problem anymore

so who am i offending now?

we always walked a very thin line

you didn’t even hear me out

i never learned to read your mind

MY TEARS RICOCHET

even on my worst day, did i deserve babe, all the hell you gave me?

i swear i loved you

i didn’t have it in myself to go with grace

and if i’m dead to you, why are you at the wake?

you know i didn’t want to have to haunt you

cause when i’d fight, you used to tell me i was brave

and i can go anywhere i want, just not home

you had to kill me, but it killed you just the same

you turned into your worst fears

MIRRORBALL

and when i break, it’s in a million pieces

hush

you’ll find me on my tallest tiptoes spinning in my highest heels

i know they said the end is near

i can change everything about me to fit in

i’m still trying everything to get you laughing at me

i’m still a believer but i don’t know why

SEVEN

please picture me in the trees

i was too scared to jump in

are there still beautiful things?

cross your heart, won’t tell no other

and thought i can’t recall your face, i still got love for you

love you to the moon and to saturn

and i’ve been meaning to tell you

i think your house is haunted

i used to scream ferociously

AUGUST

i never needed anything more

are you sure?

never have i ever before

cause it was never mine

and i can see us twisted in bedsheets

cause you were never mine

i remember thinking i had you

wanting was enough

for me, it was enough

so much for summer love, and saying “us”

cause you weren’t mine to lose

THIS IS ME TRYING

i’ve been having a hard time adjusting

i didn’t know if you’d care if i came back

i have a lot of regrets about that

and maybe i don’t quite know what to say

i just wanted you to know that this is me trying

they told me all of my cages were mental

so i got wasted like all my potential

i was so ahead of the curve, the curve became a sphere

but i didn’t pour the whiskey

at least i’m trying

it’s hard to be anywhere these days

ILLICIT AFFAIRS

make sure nobody sees you leave

tell your friends you’re out for a run

take the road less travelled by

and that’s the thing about illicit affairs

like you don’t even exist

but they lie, and they lie, and they lie, a million little times

don’t call me kid

don’t call me baby

look at this godforsaken mess that you made me

for you, i would ruin myself

INVISIBLE STRING

i used to think i would meet somebody there

were there clues i didn’t see?

all along, there was some invisible string tying you to me

you ate at my favourite spot for dinner

something wrapped all of my past mistakes in barbed wire

one single thread of gold tied me to you

hell was the journey but it brought me heaven

MAD WOMAN

what did you think i’d say to that?

what do you sing on your drive home?

every time you call me crazy, i get more crazy

and when you say i seem angry, i get more angry

what a shame, she went mad

no one likes a mad woman

you made her like that

it’s obvious that wanting me dead has really brought you two together

cause you took everything from me

the master of spin has a couple side flings

good wives always know

EPIPHANY

just a flesh wound

___, i think he’s bleedin’ out

something med school did not cover

doc, i think she’s crashin’ out

and some things you just can’t speak about

to make some sense of what you’ve seen

BETTY

but i think it’s cause of me

it’s like i couldn’t breathe

you can’t believe a word she says

the worst thing that i ever did was what i did to you

would you have me?

would you want me?

would you tell me to go straight to hell?

i’m only seventeen, i don’t know anything

but i know i miss you

just thinking of you

i dreamt of you all summer long

the only thing i wanna do is make it up to you

PEACE

i never had the courage of my convictions

as long as danger is near

but i would die for you in secret

the devil’s in the details

but you got a friend in me

your integrity makes me seem small

and you know that i’d swing with you for the fences

and you know that i’d sit with you in the trenches

and you know that i’d give you my wild

and you know that i’d give you my child

is it enough?

all these people think love’s for show

would it be enough if i could never give you peace?

HOAX

this has broken me down

stood on the cliffside screaming “give me a reason”

your faithless love’s the only hoax i believe in

don’t want no other shade of blue but you

i am ash from your fire

you know i left a part of me back in new york

you knew the hero died, so what’s the movie for

you knew it still hurts underneath my scares

you knew you won, so what’s the point of keeping score?

darling, this was just as hard

you have beaten my heart

no other sadness in the world would do

@fasciinating wanted a starter!!

“Nurse McCoy to the transporter, Nurse McCoy to the transporter.” The message rang out over the ship wide system, and she cringes at the use of the main tannoy to contact her. It wasn’t like her personal communicator was on silent or anything- oh. She checks it as she curses whoever had ordered her name to be called over the system, and suddenly, it becomes Joanna cursing her own actions for needing that to be required. 

While most of the crew were now fully aware of the fact that she was the daughter of their very own CMO, she still found herself cringing after years of going by her mother’s maiden name, as it made people look at her differently. She speeds through the hallways of the ship, until she finally makes it to the main transporter, her anger now having simmered down to annoyance after realising the fault was her own. 

“I was called??”
