There is a 7-seasons-long series of people fighting over me. * blushes *
I wish I had a warp core.
a smol SF/horror prompt hidden in this methodologically problematic astronomy book

The singlular "they" is in Shakespeare (A Comedy of Errors, IV, iii, 1-2)
So if you're going to be a purist about it, you'll have to take it up with the Bard
((opens the top, sniffs the kanar--yes, quite good, nice bouquet))
((tucks the bottle under her arm and continues on her way))
((sees a bottle of kanar, standing untouched atop a ledge)) Hmmm.
((approaches the kanar, knowing full well that a bottle of kanar cannot possibly be unpolitical on a station such as this, and probably not innocent either))
((considers the bottle, noting that it is far too pretty--is that Deltan obsiglass? how odd))
((wishing she hadn't left her tricorder in her quarters, she turns over the bottle to see if there's some kind of sly @quark advertisement))
I just want to point out that the reason Vulcans cannot mind meld with Cardassians--ostensibly due to our considerable mental discipline--is actually because Vulcans have an irrational fear of spoons.
One does not "spike" with kanar. One pours kanar into another liquid and then one watches it slump into the bottom of the glass, where it sits like a lurking Ceti eel.
I have allowed Geordi and the Captain to try out my new Android Phone. They seem quite impressed with it.

((crawls out of a ventilation shaft, grabs a tribble from her bag, puts it on a flower arrangement in @AntimatterGirl's quarters, crawls back inside, snickering))
Just a random cardassian, sir. Medical. Anyway, I think I see a furry substance in the ventilation in my quarters. I'm fairly sure I didn't put it there. Is that...planned? @Odo
((hears muffled thump in quarters--stands, straightening uniform, and peers across the room, eyes narrowed))
((walks over to the vent and looks in...sees a tribble))
((touches comm)) Um. Constable @Odo...
In Cardassian primers, of course, all children strive to move toward the center, not outward. The ideal being to exist in the very center, managing to fend off every other child, with the wise family members nodding in approval.
So it seems that this Dick and Jane book with their running Spot is a child's primer of some sort. And a controversial one. ::reads off her PADD:: "I have great pride in taking Dick and Jane out of most school libraries. Dr. Seuss."
Aha! Glinn Tok used the poison from the gadolily, a banned cultivar that the victim was fond of. And the only person who had access to gadolilies was Gul Durek! *swipes to the next page* Cardassian mystery novels are the best.
Middle of a novel. I'm still trying to figure out which ones are guilty of which things. It's pretty clear the Glinn used the poison, but who put it within her reach?
