Fics like Where the Dead Still Speak

When Harry Kim interacts with an unstable temporal object, he is entangled with a historian from the 21st century. Together they must survive as the entanglement tries to correct the error, dragging them through real and 'canon' historical periods, forcing them to cooperate in order to survive and keep history intact. They confront humanity through the eyes of the other; understanding not only what it means, but what it costs to live freely, to believe in systems and watch them fail. This is an ode to the casualties of understanding someone far removed from yourself, and the fragility of the nurtured mindset. The ineffability of losing your home, and finding another in its place. To be human is to pursue connection, meaning, and introspection. It is to form bonds within hardships, and to be indomitable against unbeatable odds. And, because this is Star Trek, it is to explore! "Why does my console suddenly look like it's designed for pensioners?" "Improved accessibility," Harry replied, still inside the console. "...For whom?" Maria asked delicately. Harry looked between the two, transparently attempting not to smile. "For historians." "You patronising little polymath."
