Title: ROOM: voy_gossip
Author: SaRa

Disclaimer:
Paramount owns them, but I was the one who dragged the kicking and screaming crewmembers into a chatroom.
Author's note #1: My first VOYAGER fanfic. Feedback of all sorts welcome. Flames will be used to heat up the coffee that I need so badly right now.
Author's note #1 1/3: EnginEAR, blueboy, and gabbygrl are nameless crew members. So you don't think I'm crazy, EnginEAR is an engineer, blueboy is a male Bolian (sp?), and gabbygrl is just some female crewmember.
Author's note #1 2/3: If you want to know who the other people are, it's at the end of the story along with explanations of where I got the names from than I must've been on something...

bigmaq: ...and?
sexEshorT: ...we'll pick which type we like best, act it out *wink*, and then write our own story. Anonymously, of course.
