"The Universe Doesn't Cheat" is a Star Trek Online one-shot fanfic by StarSword, written for an unofficial literary challenge on the game's forum. It is a prequel to Bait and SwitchThe fic steps back a couple of years from Star Trek Online's present day to January 27, 2407, ten days after Lieutenant Junior Grade Kanril Eleya, the second shift weapons officer of the USS Kagoshima, was forced to take command of the ship after every officer senior to her was killed or assimilated by the Borg during the attack on the Vega Colony. (This is later shown in From Bajor to the Black.) But because she didn't take enough command classes when she was at Starfleet Academy, and because she's only 27 and has been an officer for less than four years, some in Starfleet Command question whether she's able to command.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })The solution? Eleya takes the infamous "Kobayashi Maru". The no-win scenario.The fic alternates Eleya's usual First-Person Smartass perspective with another perspective from the peanut gallery that is the Starfleet Academy instructors officiating the test. | |

Analogy Backfire | |
| The Universe Doesn't Cheat (Fanfic) / int_2b5ab7c1 | comment |
Analogy Backfire: Sivuk throws the old "it's a no-win scenario and the universe is not fair" argument regarding the "Kobayashi Maru". T'Var calls that logic fallacious and Eleya says that the universe doesn't cheat. | |

Ramming Always Works | |
| The Universe Doesn't Cheat (Fanfic) / int_3114c1e5 | comment |
Commander Hackett compares Eleya's ramming attack against a Klingon battlecruiser to something Picard did in 2366. This refers back to a rather spectacular scene in Star Trek: Federation where Picard rams and obliterates a D'deridex-class warbird. | |

The Bus Came Back | |

The Bus Came Back: Inverted. Lieutenant T'Var, Eleya's operations officer prior to Reshek Gaarra, only made a brief appearance in Bait and Switch, but is a supporting character here. | |

Attack Pattern Alpha | |
| The Universe Doesn't Cheat (Fanfic) / int_f290a8bb | comment |
Eleya's order for a "Sulu Flip" refers to a scene in My Enemy, My Ally where Hikaru Sulu puts the Enterprise through a 180 degree backflip at high warp to bring the forward phasers to bear. | |
