.033 - someday, I'll stop posting every day

[Filtered to Admiral Kirk. Viewable by Bones.]

So Admiral.

Imagine my everlasting shame when it was brought to my attention that you haven't had your physical yet. A man of your age and experience should know that they are vital to a man's health.

You need to report to the Infirmary. Right now. Or else I'm going to be forced to take drastic measures.

[Private to Pavi]

So what's McCoy got you doing?

[ooc: Kirkling found the medical files. So he snooped. And is using that to win his bet with Bones FOREVER.]

[McCoy regarded him a moment, stepping forward with a sigh as he placed his hand at the back of Kirk's neck.] I'm not an idiot Jim, I know you well enough to know forcing you into anything will only end in a brand of idiocy that would make Spock cry. Do what you want. [He kept his gaze steady into Jim's ridiculously blue eyes.] Work it out for yourself. I can wait. [He just needed to know Kirk was serious too.]

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

[Jim isn't sure if he should point out that this whole conversation already makes him feel like an idiot or that he's got some kind of weird knee-jerk reaction that makes him want to do whatever Bones asks of him because then he'll be happy and happy people don't leave or that he's pretty sure he deserves to be kicked to curb for that crap he pulled.

But he really doesn't want to talk about any of that.

So he just leaps without looking instead.]

"I'm serious, Bones. It's all or nothing, right?"

[hyposprayed.livejournal.com]

It's not as simple as an ultimatum. [McCoy says incredulously, brow quirked.] And this isn't a some dare either Jim.

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

[It's stubborn pride working for Bones's favor right now. And he should be thankful that Kirk will do just about anything to prove to doubters that he can do it. So really, he should be happy because he's getting his way.]

"I know, it's about maturing and being a better person."

[hyposprayed.livejournal.com]

[Bones really tries not to look incredulous. The last time Kirk took something as a dare he cheated and nearly ended up kicked out of Starfleet. He obsessed over it and that's really not what McCoy wants but at this point all he could do was dare him not to take it as a dare. The stubborn idiot.]

Which, if you notice our surroundings, doesn't happen over night. [McCoy sighs, letting his hand slide to Kirk's shoulder and quirking his brow, tone lighter.] You're a stubborn son of a bitch, you know that?

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

[Jim gave him a quirked smile for a few moment that lacked any humor.]

"That's part of my charm." [He sighs.] "You don't get to tell me that you hate that I sleep around but you don't expect me to even want to be monogamous and still expect me to take that lying down."

[hyposprayed.livejournal.com]

Jim, have you ever been in a relationship before? And screwing around with Gaila doesn't count.

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

[Jim didn't answer that. Just... gave Bones a look instead and let that be his answer.]

[hyposprayed.livejournal.com]

[Figures.] And you really think- [No, it was hopeless. Kirk saw the gauntlet thrown and now there they were. It took a great deal of effort not to roll his eyes.] Sometimes I forget what a kid you are. [There was fondness amongst the exasperation at least, probably a tone only Kirk could pick up.]

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

"'m not a kid, old man." [Kirk mumbled, nudging his fist against the doctor's shoulder.]

[hyposprayed.livejournal.com]

Yeah you are. You're an oversexed, stubborn kid who just happens to be a damned genius to top it all off. [He took the fist Kirk nudged him with.]

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

[Kirk frowned at him for that.] "Does talking to people like that really work to get you laid?"

[hyposprayed.livejournal.com]

People appreciate honesty. [He answered, brow quirked.]

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

[Kirk wrinkled his nose and pursed his lips.] "Funny. In my oversexed experience, people like compliments better."

[hyposprayed.livejournal.com]

I called you a genius didn't I? Besides, it must work. You're here now aren't you?

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

"You're lucky to have found me." [Kirk announced, sliding his hand along the doctor's shoulder.] "Now give me a compliment to win back my affections."

[hyposprayed.livejournal.com]

[McCoy scoffed, stepping just that bit closer.] Yeah kid, I guess I am. [He said, his 'compliment' and the truth of the matter.]

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

[Jim caught it as a compliment but he was tired of the serious conversation. So he gave him a coy smile and a little bit of a pout.] "Close. Try saying something about my eyes."

[hyposprayed.livejournal.com]

[McCoy rolled his eyes, letting his hand rest against the side of Kirk's neck.] The space radiation gave them a nice touch.

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

[Kirk laughed softly.] "'The space radiation gave them a nice touch.'" [He mocked, complete with that terrible Southern accent.] "I thought I told you that I didn't want a Vulcan."

[hyposprayed.livejournal.com]

[McCoy's lips quirked at that.] Didn't say you wanted a poet either. [He countered.] Should have known you'd expect praise for your damned ridiculous eyes. Never seen a color like that, even in space births. You know for the first year I was half convinced you used some kind of eye shadow or something equally strange to get that color.

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

"Nah, my baby blues are all natural, honey. Kirks are just lucky that way." [Kirk practically beamed at him.] "I like your eyes. Normally hazel is a very ugly color but they're not always like that. Sometimes they're all green or just all brown or even red with the insane urge to kill me."

[hyposprayed.livejournal.com]

Your older self didn't get that luck. [He comments, because it's true and god knew it sounded like an insult to the other man enough Kirk might actually be pleased with it. Lord he was getting soft.]

[He snorted in amusement at Kirk's assessment, head to the side.] Careful Jim, you're making me blush. [He said dryly.] Are you appeased with how lucky a bastard I am yet or do I need to write you a god damned sonnet?

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

"I've never had a sonnet written about me before." [Jim mused with an interested eyebrow.] "Is it going to rhyme? I feel like it should rhyme."

[hyposprayed.livejournal.com]

[McCoy huffed at that, tugging the hem of Kirk's shirt.] You'll see, now won't you? Come on, if I'm going to go to sleep might as well tire us both out beforehand.
