Chapter 40 - What is a time beacon?? (Patreon)

"Sensors confirm that we are in Federation space, Captain,” T’Maz reported, to my delight and cheers from my girls in engineering who had opened a comm link with the bridge. “Syncing with Federation time beacons.”

A moment later I heard several insistent beeps. After several years in the Star Trek dimension, I could tell when the beeps were bad.

Sigh…

“Federation time beacon shows a significant temporal inconsistency from internal ship chronometer,” T'Maz reported just as stoically as she did everything else, besides sex with me.

“Why am I not surprised?” I said, after a long-drawn-out sigh. "What year is it? And are we even in the right dimension?" I asked tiredly, but only after closing my eyes, putting my feet up in the recliner, and sinking deep into my captain's chair and activating its massage function at maximum. I don’t care how un-captainly my quiet groans of pleasure sounded.
