trying to remember fic name & author
I ran across a fic, quite a while ago but no longer recall where or the title, in which Enterprise encounters a small spherical object that did not like Vulcans. It turns out to be a recording device sent out from an old race
Anyone remember this one?
What is the name?
Who wrote it?
Where is it?

Re: trying to remember fic name & author
That does sound like an interesting story! Unfortunately I don't know it either. Are you sure those small spherical objects were not furry? Those objects did not like Klingons.
Working on a major fan fic project. Two-thirds done. Hope to put it up in the not TOO distant future.

It's flavored with passionfruit
an appropriate ingredient, don't you think?

Re: trying to remember fic name & author
I wish I could. Don't think it was a TnT fic, rather a gereral Ent. thing. Gad I have read so many fics they all mush together after a while and I only recall bits and pieces.
Oh well.

Well, Rigil is the man with something approaching a steel-trap memory. If he's read it, he might know.

You know...I was just thinking that.

Still no joy. I do recall the object was low warp capible, like warp 1. It was a recording device that observed civilizations. After they got it to respond it gave them a view of Earth's pre history.
Also noticed triptofan appears to be gone. any of those stories archived anywhere?

Using the Internet Archive Wayback Machine, I was able to pull these pages:
"Duct Tape and Poker Faces" (complete)
"Forsaken" - first 2 chapters
Chapter 1
Chapter 2
"Reviviscence" - first 3 chapters (of 8 listed on the site at that time)
Chapter 1
Chapter 2
Chapter 3
"The Devil to Pay" - first 2 chapters (of 3 listed on the site)
Chapter 1
Chapter 2
I checked the fanfic I have saved on my HD, and I found Chapter 3 of "The Devil to Pay." I also have the first 2 chapters of "The First Duty" (I don't know if it was ever finished) and the complete "The Last Full Monty."
Since the Wayback Machine isn't all-inclusive, it might be that the only way to find all of Erin and Maggie's stories (even the unfinished works) would be to put out a general call on a few different BBS to see if anyone saved them. Perhaps they could be collected in one place for interested readers to DL.
Here is a list of the stories at triptofan as of August 2007, if anyone else has any of these stories tucked away on their hard drive...

Re: trying to remember fic name & author
Okay, Hopeful Romantic, this is where I beg you to please please please put up Chapter 3 of The Devil to Pay.
And having read the first two chapters as well as Duct Tape and Poker Faces, I can only sit in awe that there's a writer who actually manages to put Trip through more suffering than Drogna does.
Also I really want to kill Archer right now, but I assume I'll get over it.
I don't think I dare start the others that aren't complete unless somebody out there has the rest of them.

PM me and we'll figure out how to get it to you. And "Last Full Monty" too.
Warning: Chapter 3 of "TDTP" is not the last chapter; it leaves you hanging. Do you still want it?
Also I really want to kill Archer right now, but I assume I'll get over it.
Because of one of these stories? Good gravy, what for?

Re: trying to remember fic name & author
I want to kill Archer because poor Trip is dying and he's keeping T'Pol away like an idiot. Meanwhile you've got Trip vomiting up his lifeblood and crying in frustration. And then Archer has the nerve to think T'Pol is being insensitive. So I just want to kill him. But as I said, I'll get over it.
I guess I'll take whatever I can get, since I started it. I'll PM you. Thanks!

Jeez, I didn't remember any of that. I thought Archer was great in this story. So I went back and read again... Let's just say we interpreted those scenes really differently, LOL.
I'll be interested to hear what you think of him after reading Chapter 3...
