The Enterprise is indeed home, but roughly one year into their five year deep space mission, Jim would tell Djem that sometimes it's nice to breathe non-recycled air or eat something that isn't replicated.

Okay so that's....weird. Jim's pretty sure space travel is still in its infancy in the 2000s. Starting to look like Djem's Earth is much different than his own.

Really? Good. That's where any version of me belongs.

He laughs a little at that. He couldn't imagine himself anywhere else.
