A Red Hot Commander

Summary:

Drabbles -- stories of exactly 100 words, excluding the title -- have infected ASC in the past few days. I was infected by the Limerick bug (Thanks, Omega! This is for you!) So... In some fit of madness, I tried to make a drabble of four Limericks, each with 25 words. This is the result.

Work Text:

A Red Hot Commander
by Fizzbin

A red hot commander was Kirk,
Endearingly handsome -- no jerk,
And, ever so brave,
No fear made him cave,
So danger he never did shirk.

His XO's demeanor was grave
(Some thought him a cold-blooded knave);
That Vulcan, named Spock,
Was Kirk's constant rock
Through many a risky close shave.

Kirk's love life? 'Twas frankly a shock --
Ten floozies at every space dock!
He wasn't a prick;
Fleet's realpolitik
Made marriage somewhat of a crock.

But Spock did demolish that shtick,
Though chancing his captain would squick;
Seductively dressed,
His love he confessed.
Said Kirk, "Dearest friend, take me quick!"
