The Inside Story



Licking its wounds, Voyager staggered away from another encounter gone 
wrong; and Captain Janeway issued a familiar order.

"Senior staff, report to Lieutenant Carey. Usual rota."

One lengthy debriefing later, Tom Paris paused on the way out of 
Carey's quarters. "Don't you ever get tired of it, Joe?"

Carey pondered. "Sometimes I'd give anything to be back in 
Engineering, B'Elanna's temper and all. But we'll get home some day, 
and half of us will probably get cashiered. We'll need to support 
ourselves somehow, and I'm the best writer aboard."

Tom nodded. They'd just have to hope people *wanted* Voyager 
novelizations.
