Hopes and Expectations (Star Trek XI, PG with warnings)

Title: Hopes and Expectations
Fandom: Star Trek XI
Rating: PG with warnings.
Pairing: Chekov/Sulu, Chekov/Sulu/Sentient Plant
Summary: Hikaru introduces Pavel to a new friend.
Content Advisory: Rather tentacular, threesome-tinged slash, but not at all explicit.
All Thanks To: lomedet. *beams*
Disclaimer: None of these characters (except the plant) or their settings belong to me.
Title from "Starlight" by Muse, because I like the theme.
Author's Note: This started as a fill to this kink meme prompt but went far afield, ending up as a sequel to Black Holes and Revelations (rated NC-17), though you don't need to read that to understand this.
( When Pavel finds Hikaru he has to stop himself from drawing his phaser. )

Talk to the Icon

Or rather, with them. Please have conversations in the comments to this post that are just icons. (one character in each comment, like ` or *, will let you post it). I'm having a bit of a day, and could use cheer, art, and memery. So.
