The SS Clydesdale needs to go to Antares, but it needs a full cargo hold to make the trip worth it. Meanwhile, Dr. Janet Corbair finds that obtaining something as simple as a working tricorder is really difficult when you’re not in Starfleet.

This one is really a world and character building story. I wanted to take a bit more time to cover what life is like for the Clydesdale crew as they try to get work and deal with their Tellarite employers. As such, there's not a whole lot of plot happening, but hopefully enough character moments to give readers a better sense of the crew personalities.
The other thing I really wanted to explore is that things Starfleet Officers take for granted aren't as easily accessible to everyone else. Dr. Corbair needs a tricorder and one of the readily available consumer-grade scanning products just won't do for her purposes. It would be like the difference between a microscope in a actual laboratory versus one you can buy for your kid.
As this was part one of two, there's not a whole lot more for me to say. More to come in the comments for Busted.
