Summary
People make assumptions about Will Riker. That because he is steadfast and loyal, he is nothing more than the captain's enforcer. That because he has a sense of humor, he is unserious.
Jean-Luc Picard is tired of it.

Summary
The feeling of a hand, cold and textureless, closes around his ankle, tight pressure through thin fabric, right above his boots. He hits the ground roughly, air knocked from his lungs as his ribs collide with the unforgiving ache of the planet’s surface.
Fingers scrabble through the dust, grit caking under his nails and sand rough against rawed skin. The clouds stirred by his own motion force their way into his lungs as he opens his mouth to cry out, to scream, to do anything. His eyes burn, dry and aching.

Summary
Worf knew that he wore his heart on his sleeve, that it didn’t take a genius to figure him out. He liked it that way. It kept people at a comfortable distance, made them avoid him, fear him. But where others flinched or tiptoed, Riker smiled and teased. Leaned in, not away.

Holy fucking shit, that was hot. And unexpected. And deeply, wonderfully strange.

Summary
Abandoned at fifteen, Will Riker is forced to make his own way in life. That means getting a job, finding some personality trait or innate skill he can exploit for credits so he doesn't get tossed out in the Alaskan snow.
And, well, the first thing that comes to mind is ... sex.

Absolutely a tragedy that this story didn't spawn a massive series because it's perfect and I desperately want to know where they go from the end.
