Title: Diplomatic Relations
Rating: G
I have no clue what the premise for this is meant to be, please make up your own awesome story for why the hell this picture would even happen. I mainly just wanted to put Uhura and Kirk in Indian clothes.





ETA: I can haz fic snippet \o/ Courtesy of the lovely leupagus, there is now a possible explanation of what on earth might be going on here :D

ETA2: Now with title thanks to miss_porcupine, who also had this to add (with Uhura quoting Will Rogers):
"There is more to diplomacy than saying 'nice doggie' until you can find a rock, Captain."
"There's a MONKEY IN MY HAIR, Lieutenant."
"Now you know how the rest of us feel, sir."

To echo everyone else: baby monkey! And the clothes are gorgeous. But I think my favorite bit, oddly enough, is Spock and whoever walking together in the background. For some reason that just finishes off the picture for me.

The Indian costumes are gorgeous--at that filigree (or whatever the proper term is) detail.

Thank you! Those nitpicky swirly embroidery details can be frustrating but a lot of fun too. And I'm really glad you liked the figures in the background, the picture just seemed incomplete without the suggestion of the other crew around :D
