Summary
“Starfleet said ‘to boldly go,’ not ‘to boldly bleed onto the pavement’", I groaned, rubbing my shin. "But here I am, really going for extra credit.”
Diana Blake never set out to be remarkable. Growing up in a small English town, Starfleet was a dream she’d only ever seen in newsreels—something for other people. But the Academy has a way of pulling you in, and Diana soon learns that you don’t need a famous name or command-level ambition to make an impression. She notices things: the way voices tighten before arguments, the flicker of hesitation before someone lies, the moments everyone else lets slip past. It’s a skill that gets her through her classes, into trouble more often than she’d like, and on the radar of one Dr. Leonard McCoy—a gruff, sharp-witted medical officer with little patience for cadets, and even less for the ones who see through him.

Summary
The pain came back to him gradually.
Forcing himself to not make a noise or open his eyes, Jim acknowledged what he felt and heard.
it was silent, except for the overwhelming sounds of multiple people breathing.
He was on his back on something hard, making his ribs hurt.
Opening his eyes, Jim stayed where he was, letting them adjust.
After a moment, he sat up and stared.
Jim looked around, not comprehending the scene in front of him.
His crew surrounded him, asleep.
Chairs, loads of chairs, were to his right with some crew members asleep in them while a big screen was to his left.
