Summary
"Today, though, she happens to turn her head at just the right moment to see the night shift receptionist settling into her seat for the long haul. And damn. She’s like, model gorgeous. Victoria nearly gets steamrolled by an angry-looking woman with a bloody tissue pinched on her nose for all her rubbernecking.
She’s about to miss her bus, and the next one isn’t for 40 minutes, so she doesn’t have time to linger any longer. But that night, when she goes home, she can’t get her face out of her head."

Summary
The USS Rome had hit the rocks with Caesar. Its fuel sapped, decks scorched, weeks from shutdown, they landed in an isolated solar system with a Captain too stubborn to look for aid. Instead, Caesar's plan was to touch down on a planet containing civilized life, violating Starfleet's guiding rule: the Prime Directive.
This was an old story—a ship that was dying, a Captain that was killing it. And Brutus, first officer, had a choice that could change half a galaxy.

Bookmarker's Notes
this is, hands down, the best and most historically accurate fanfiction i have ever seen. I am rewatching downton s2 because of this and am very much enjoying seeing Thomas (or should I say Sergeant Wardmaster Barrow) in a whole new light.
