This is definitely an older story, from early on in the reboot fandom. Not sure if it's a short chapter in a longer fic, a side story/sequel in a series, but it definitely had chekov and sulu seconded to another ship for some goodwill/PR/cross training. There was an away mission and Chekhov ended up hacking the con to manage to beam up sulu (irradiated soil and somehow beaming them back not irradiated?) and the captain was all "this is a normal day for you?" and learned respect for those upstart kids. Not sure if it was gen, pre slash or slash but it's been bugging me for days now...

any ideas? I'm almost positive it was one of those longer stories everyone read back in the day (lol) but definitely not Atlas =) thanks!

Found! It's speculation by Lanaea, link in comment below. Thanks!
