Yes.

...

Why?

Because I was thinking of going to the CES and shooting things that don't deserve it and I thought you'd want to join.

I've got nothing better to do. Meet you on deck, half an hour?

Sounds good.

[Jim was early for once, tapping his foot against the deck as he waited for her, surprisingly full of energy since he hadn't really slept last night. But that was what happened when he was worried about the Enterprise and couldn't really do anything about it.

Hence this little journey to the CES, since he'd run for an hour and a half this morning and that hadn't helped at all.]

Shego was a little better-rested due to McCoy's mystery red pills, although she was ignoring his advice that they were a symptomatic treatment rather than a cure and she didn't know exactly how she'd handle it when she ran out. Better overall to just not think about it.

She was a couple minutes late when she walked across the deck with Kirk's phaser tucked under her jacket. She'd checked it more times than she'd ever admit to, making sure that it had reverted back to its pre-flood programming.

"Hey."

"Hey," Kirk nodded back at her and gestured at her to follow him towards the CES. "You're looking a little better than the last time I saw you."

She started walking, taking the stairs onto the above-deck levels. "Thanks. You're looking like a little kid going through a sugar rush. What gives?" It hadn't exactly escaped her notice that he'd not seemed all that happy to see the Scottish guy, but pointing that out might give him the impression she was concerned.

Kirk waved his hand wildly, muttering something under his breath that was really just a bunch of name calling and curse words as he dug around his pocket for his item so they could get into the CES.

"You don't have any interest in serving aboard a Starship by chance, do you?"

So. The Scottish guy and the hyperactivity maybe were related. She made a mental note that was promptly forgotten when he actually put his thoughts into real words.

"Uh. Not so much. Besides which, I don't know if you noticed but I'm kinda lacking in transferable skills. Where did this come from?"

Kirk frowned slightly, since he'd kind of been hoping that she did have some deep hidden desire to serve aboard a starship cause then he could kill two birds with one stone. Not abandon her and make sure that his ship wasn't going to explode.

"You can have Scotty's job. Since apparently you don't have to know anything about what's going on to do it."

"Oh boy. Did somebody hurt your baby while you were gone?"

"... I don't think so," Kirk said after a moment's pause, since he was pretty sure that if something was seriously wrong, then he would've been notified like he had been a month ago. But he still wasn't left with a sense of confidence after Scotty's arrival.

"Though given the way Scott's acting, I wouldn't be surprised."

"Maybe it's just in the shop or something," she said with a shrug, stepping into the CES. Looked average-forest-ish, which was just great, since every natural environment Shego was familiar with tended to be insanely hostile.

"If you're so worried then take a week off and go check it out, I'm not exactly gonna cry over your absence."

Alright, what is it? I'll take a guess and say the ship again.

What's what?

I'm assuming you mean Shego's phaser, so you want to go off and shoot something.

Maybe I got her something pretty at the last port.

So when I ask her she'll tell me all about it.

That would be the idea.

Damnit Jim, is it so hard to admit you're upset? It's not like it isn't glaringly obvious this time around.

I'm not upset.

Does it look bad if you fire your Chief Engineer before the first year of the mission is over?

Yeah, you're obviously fine.

Jim, I'm sure the ship is fine. Hell, go back for a few days and check for yourself.

I know it's fine. I would've been contacted again if it wasn't.

I wouldn't come back if I leave now. I haven't decided if I want to do that to you and Shego yet.

Really, then why are you acting like you're on the edge of your seat?

Lord, this talk again. Well I realized something, if you were really going to go the best I could do is try to keep you from feeling too guilty about it.

Because he's acting twitchier than normal and that's something to worry about.

Yeah and I'm pretty sure that Shego would tell me to fuck off.
