captain_jtkirk | .046 - voice post, sorry for the length

[Kirk is back! Though the Barge stole him back while he sleeping because it's an evil, evil entity. Why so late at in the day? Ship's time on the Enterprise is weird.]

Yeoman... Johnson, can you call down to Sickbay and get more of the little yellow pills? Maybe find some coffee while you're running around getting the reports from Medical and Science anyway, oh and that one Admiral Pike sent yesterday and I need you to let Scotty know that I reeeeeeeally wasn't kidding when I rejected that experimental upgrade on the cooling systems. I will hobble down there myself and take those plans away from him--are you getting all of this?

...

... Johnson, come in.

Why aren't you--[Have the 'oh shit, I'm not on Enterprise anymore, am I?' moment.]

...

Motherfuck.

...

...

Bones, you better have little yellow pills in your stash here or I'm going to die from an infection.

[Oh and it's not an away mission on the Enterprise if Kirk doesn't get hurt, so he got speared. Makes it easier to hunt him down and smack him for being an ass.]

"Okay, fine. But Bones if I can be friends with him after everything? You should at least be able to try. And don't say that's destiny talking because it's not. We make a good team. I can't ignore that."

I'm not asking you to. Fine, I'll try but I'm not promising anything. [He says, shaking his head.] He may be a good First Officer but he's still a cold blooded bastard sometimes.

"Yes but you have to at least try to like everyone." [Kirk says patiently.] "Do I have to corner you two under some of that mistletoe?"

Don't even think about it Jim, this place has given me enough nightmares. [He shoots Jim a look.] I'll leave that honor to Uhura.

"Or me." [Jim says with an innocent sort of smile.] "He's not bad at it."

[McCoy pinches Jim's uninjured side. Hard.] Stop being a brat or all those 'yellow pills' will be in hypo form.

"Ow!" [Kirk protests, swatting at him.] "I thought they were in hypo form already."

They are, but they're in pill form too. [McCoy raises his brow.] Your choice.

"You're going to stick me no matter what I say."

You deserved that first one.

"I did not. Your bitterness is not a reason to stab people."

Your thickheadedness is. You haven't explained exactly how you got that wound either- and no, saying 'failed diplomacy' is not a real explanation.

"Sure it is. We went. We talked. They didn't like it. We had to run. Hannity almost died. I pushed her out of the way. And bam, spear."

Sounds like a normal day for you. [He says dryly.] How's the pain?

"I'm fine." [Which meant that it was aching and kinda burning a little.]

That's not what I asked. [McCoy glanced over at the wound.] M'Benga did I good job.

"And I said that I was fine." [Kirk repeated, loath to admit that he was in any kind of pain, ever.] "Yeah, he's totally giving you a run for your money. Almost killed me only once."

You would say you were fine if you in what some people consider agony. [McCoy points out then snorts.] He's an excellent Doctor, I wouldn't have left the Enterprise if he wasn't.

"Not agony. And if you don't believe me, then just stick me with a needle because me telling you not to won't stop you."

Please Jim, try to spread the resigned air of how you suffer through my abuse on a little thicker. There are a few people who still have doubts.

"I'm just saying that if I refuse, you bitch about how I don't trust you, and then do it anyway. So I'm conserving energy and not bothering anymore."

Believe it or not I don't stick you with hypos for a cheap thrill.

"And I actually do run right at dangerous things to bother your ulcer." [Said very sarcastically.]

There's a bit of a difference there Jim. [He turns slightly towards Jim.] Would you rather I pat you on the back and tell you to have fun? No, don't answer that.
