Fics like Eye of the Beholder

Captain James T Kirk of the Ship of Theseus just wants to deliver his cargo in time when yet another damn Starfleet distress call derails his plans. -- “Captain, we’re receiving a distress call,” said Uhura. “Not today,” Jim Kirk put his open paperback on one knee, took off his glasses, and sighed. “We don’t have time. Is there a Starfleet ship nearby?” “It’s from a Starfleet ship, Captain,” said Uhura. “What madness have those idiots stumbled into now?” Sulu muttered. “Forgot how turn kettle on,” Chekov grinned. “Need mama to make tea and wipe baby mouth.” Kirk glared at the screen. The Starfleet ship wasn’t even visible yet, though that had as much to do with his own ship’s outdated sensors as it did with the aggressiveness of Starfleet’s signals. “He has a point, Uhura. Is this a real crisis or are they panicking because the manual doesn’t describe their exact situation?” Uhura tilted her head sideways, dark eyes sparkling behind her thick glasses as she listened to the message again. “Apparently there’s a… monster? On the ship. Whatever the cause, they’ve found six dead crewmembers so far, all with a set of ten small circular red wounds on their faces.”
