Author's Notes

"An A/U version of "Les Liaisons Ridicules" in which the story takes a very different road after the camping trip. Rated NC-17."

Summary

NOTE: For those of you who've read "Les Liaisons Ridicules (Ridiculous Liaisons)," this A/U takes place a couple of days after the camping trip and makes a sharp turn away from the original storyline. For those of you who haven't read that story, here's a quick summary up to the point where the stories fork (or you can read the whole story at Les Liaisons Ridicules). During his second year at the Academy, Kirk starts dating Ruth. Appalled by his choice of girlfriend, Brandt nicknames her "the Cupcake" and decides to break them up for Kirk's own good. She goes on a camping trip with them and scares Ruth into near-hysterics with a 23rd Century urban legend. Although Brandt had hoped this would show Kirk what a sissy the Cupcake is, her plan backfires when he rescues the fair damsel who's trapped in a tent full of bug spray. The next day, he makes Brandt promise to make friends with Ruth and then throws her into a nearby lake. Fig (mentioned briefly in this story) is Brandt's roommate and closest friend.
