For those of you who aren't part of the Star Trek fandom, I apologize for all the flailing. The idea I had I don't think will pan out completely. At least not after refreshing myself with the other fandom I was looking into. Crap! The problem is, the idea for the fic came to me almost fully formed.
Well actually it was a dream.
( A rather vivid dream actually )So now I need information. I need to find out all there is about Pike, fanon and Canon. I've pegged his age and I have a fair idea of his characterization. I just need some direction. I want to deal with Pike's injuries in the correct way. There's rehab and years of healing ahead for the man, and I know that TOS he was stuck in the chair, but are they keeping that part of canon for the new series? Or are they even bothering to mention it? I know that the injuries he sustained are serious but I can't remember the original injury. It's also possible that there might be some developments.
For those worried, I'm not about to pull out what happened to Worf in TNG, that's too far away to be plausible and I kind of like the idea of Pike/Kirk dealing with the chair and the injury and finding ways around it. I want to show the ups and downs, and I want to watch Kirk grow and show how much he changes between the first time he meets Pike.
I have my own ideas on Kirk and his issues.
But yeah, anything anyone can give me on Pike and his injury that would be awesome! :D
And wow was that rambly. If parts don't make sense, it's 1am, and I've been watching SPN S1 and S2 since yesterday lol.
