Ooooo I like this idea! For this the evil crewmate will be Blue, and the good impostor will be a Pink Fem!Reader 

...............

“A goddamn self-report is what it is!! Don’t fucking lie, Pink!!”

You flinched as Blue slammed a fist down on the table, startling everyone else too. Even their mini crewmate children seemed terrified by how aggressive their parent was acting. 

“I dunno, you’re acting mighty sus yelling all the time..” Brown pointed out as they tipped their hat up. “But not every report is a self-report, ya know.”

“How do you know this wasn’t one?!!”

“Pink and I discovered the body together. There’s no way she would’a done it if she was with me the whole time.”

“Yeah,” you decided to speak up. “Let’s just skip for now--”

“Why?” Blue huffed. “We can just get rid of more deadweight if we vote someone off.”

Everyone in the meeting was stunned by their remark. But since every crewmate was a viable asset to the team, they decided to just quickly skip the vote at your suggestion and return to their tasks.

You, on the other hand, had another target in-mind now.

The truth was, you’ve only been killing crewmates who have been rude, lazy, or just plain disrespectful to everyone. You overheard some actually being glad the first dead body was someone they disliked, so you were doing them a service.

From the way Blue lashed out at this meeting...you knew you had to take them out next.

If they acted that aggressive around your team, who knows how they acted around their children.

Your halo hovered over your pink helmet as you made your way through the vents, arriving to the electrical room where you heard your target’s grumbles.

“Fucking dumbasses...if it were up to me I’d get them ALL thrown off--shut up, brats! I didn’t mean you. Jeez I should’ve left you back on Earth if I knew you were gonna be this whiny.”

The whimpers of the mini crewmates only made you angrier, so you decided to sabotage the door, forcing it to close.

“Huh?!” Blue stormed over to investigate while you quietly emerged from the vent with your knife ready.

But they abruptly spun around to face you, their whole body tensing with surprise. “You bi-"

“Honestly? I think you’re the deadweight we need to get rid of.” You smirked under your blue visor, which soon became splattered with the blood of the pathetic excuse of a crewmate as you jabbed them with the knife several times.

Soon the door opened after their body fell. Knowing you had to be quick, you made your way back to the vent, though you heard tiny pitter-patter footsteps and noticed the two mini crewmates following you.

‘Huh..usually they stay where their parent died..’ You realized they must have truly hated Blue if they were willing to follow their murderer.

So you scooped them up and hushed them softly, sneaking back into the vent.

.............

“It was me.”

The crew looked at you in surprise; nobody had even asked where the body was found yet, so your confession caught them off-guard for a moment.

“I killed Blue and..their kids went with me.” You patted the head of the blue mini crewmate, seeing it nuzzle into your gloved palm. “Seems they’re a shitty crewmate and parent. But before you eject me, could one of you take care-”

“Wait who says anythin’ about ejecting ya?”

“...huh?” You looked at Brown, confused. “But I’m the Impostor..”

“So? Ya actually did us a service by killing that jerkwad...”

“Yeah, I hated their guts.”

“So mean..calling us deadweight! I’m glad karma got to them!”

“I knew Pink was sus but..she's cool.”

“You aren’t randomly killing us, so we’ll spare you.”

Stunned, you looked at all your crewmates, feeling humble that they actually wanted to keep you on the ship. The blue mini crewmates were especially happy to learn this as they jumped up and down on the table.

“Though don’t think we’ll let ya have free reign sabotaging the ship,” Brown warned. “Or else we’ll eject ya on the spot.”

“I won’t touch the reactors or O2, I promise.” You crossed your heart. "Th-Thank you."

Relief only swept over you once everybody decided to skip the voting.

It seems you’ve help them realize something today: 

"You seriously don't know how a medbay scan works?!!”

“AH!!”

In panic, you turned around and shot your sharp tongue out at whoever scared you, thinking they would attack.

But as you saw their glass visor shatter and them collapse into a pool of their own blood...you realized you messed up. Big time.

“O-Oh no..I’m sorry!” You panicked, jumping off the scanner and quickly slamming the door to the medbay shut.

You didn’t mean to kill! It was just a survival tactic you’ve grown up with! And they were being rude for being pushy about your medbay scan.

Though now that there was a dead body, someone would surely find it, report it, and then....they might suspect you.

But you tried to calm down and think rationally. ‘Everyone knows I’m a pacifist..I wouldn’t even try to get anyone ejected off this ship...maybe if I report it instead--’

However, there’s the chance they could accuse you of self-reporting. That was fairly common considering how distrustful your crewmates were being lately.

But you wished you could just tell them it was an accident, even if you were outed as the Impostor.

Then again..their goal was to get rid of all Impostors, so it wouldn’t matter if what you did was accidental or not.

Would they even believe your words?

Shaking your head, you decided to slip into the vent and pop back up at the reactor, seeing that the coast was clear. And there you pretended to do some tasks.

Though just as you thought you were okay, the emergency meeting alarm blared all throughout the ship. ‘Great..already? I hope they didn’t catch me venting..’ 

“Oh! Are you having trouble with shooting the asteroids?”

Turning to White, you saw them hop into the chair and grab the laser guns with both hands. “Usually they're large enough to hit. But it’s all about timing and precision so what I do is....”

As they proceeded to explain how they shoot down the asteroids, you stood there in silence, listening for the sounds of other crewmates. You quickly got your tablet just when you saw someone else enter the weapons chamber and turned off the lights.

“...awh darn, the lights cut out. But it’s good I can still see the screen!” White gleefully expressed as they turned back to the glowing green panel.

The noises of exploding asteroids drowned out the strangled cries of the crewmate you brutally slaughtered, so they didn’t suspect a thing even as they finished their task.

“And that’s how it’s done! Got it now, Yellow?”

“Yeah, whatever..” You huffed and put your weapon away quickly. “Thanks I guess.”

“No problem! Let’s go fix those lights if they haven’t already~!” They took your hand and led you through the dark corridors, their flashlight on. “S-Sorry if this is awkward but I just don’t wanna lose my best bud in the darkness. Never know when an Impostor will strike.”

“Of course. You can never know for sure.” You just smirked, glad they couldn’t see your face under your blue visor.

White might be oblivious as hell...but you were grateful that they were always with you.
