So I was thinking about a crossover where the Enterprise gets a Xenomorph infestation and it's the last we hear of them (piefed.social)

So like, captain's log stardate so and so, they found an anomaly, a distress beacon from a planet, and upon examination it was a derelict spaceship with only one dead crew member fused to the pilots seat, and some eggs.

Long story short, they go on an away mission, and Tasha Yar(r) winds up in the sickbay under Dr. Crushers care, with a xenomorph attached to her windpipe.

Long story short, the episode ends with Picard silently whispering "kill me...." while being engulfed by xenoplasma, and that's the official end of Star Trek: TNG

You know what, I was team Xeno from the start and pushed it, but they're just so technologically advanced in Star Fleet that they'd probably just zap them with a force field, I'm thinking a lattice of cubes like, BUT! If you do that, let's say they infest the cargo bay, and they do that goo thing in there, and that's their base, they evolve quickly and adapt, not like the borg but evolutionarily, we've seen that in a few good films and some bad films and adaptations.

SO let's say that Picard is like

"Mr. Worf. Activate force fields on all the lower decks, maximum energy pulse, 2x2" lattice."

"Sir. Are you sure? That would terminate all life in the lower decks, sir."

"Make it so!"

And ZEP!

BUT!

Now you have fucking Xeno acid blood splattered in EVERY DIRECTION IN ZERO G (I presume it's zero G because), and what must be an a w f u l smell, but, so, it corrodes the fucking walls, everything, AND, and this is a big AND, because, the Xeno trump card is that there is always... One... More...
