.067 - this is how captains spend their holidays

Since it is a holiday and while I respect it, I don't celebrate or observe it. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a game of chess. Or any other quiet type of recreation if you can think of something better.

[Private to Shego]

Let's talk.

[ooc; this is the type of chess Kirk plays. But. He also lets people win because it's hard.]

Oh. Yeah, you're right. [Dorky smile here.] Black goes first in checkers. [And he's moving up his knight first.]

[Kirk moves his pawn first. Because he's probably going to let you win.]

[Well that'll piss Tim off.]

Good thing those pranks only lasted a day. I don't think I could've gone on like that.

[You can't prove anything, Tim. Ever.]

"It's my understanding that April Fool's itself only lasts a day. It wouldn't make any sense to carry on after that."

[HE'S GONNA TRY REAL HARD.]

Could've if the prankster was a dick.

[Jim laughs softly at that, and moves his piece.] "Then you should be thankful that he, she, or it wasn't."

[Tim's setting a trap. Sort of. It's not the best, this isn't exactly normal chess.]

He probably can be. And whoever it is, he's ridiculously good with computers. From all different times, apparently.

"What makes you so certain it actually was a he?" [Kirk asks. You can have your trap, sir. He hopes it works out for you.]

[So does Tim. :| He just shrugs one shoulder, moving out a bishop.] Just a hunch. Not much of one. Thing is, I'm really good with computers. Especially my computer.

[Kirk moves his rook. His playing style probably doesn't make a lot of sense but he's also not trying very hard and is a sneaky fucker. So he could be making a trap.]

"Lots of people are really good with computers here."

[Sneaky fuck indeed. Tim takes his time, eying all those boards and Kirk's pieces.]

True. There's that Sato lady, I hear she's pretty good. And your engineer.

[He moves up a pawn.] Probably your whole crew. 21st century tech has to look like child's toys.

"Bones would complain that he's a doctor and not a engineer but yeah." [Kirk smiles softly and moves another pawn up a level.]

"What are you getting at?"

[Tim brings up his bishop and shrugs, aiming for Kirk's rook.]

Just that one of your people is the most likely to have done it. But it was harmless, right?

[And Kirk let's him have it. I'm not sure why. He's got a plan let's say.]

"That's a serious accusation you're making there. Even if it was harmless. Do you have proof?"

[Well, rooks aren't all that important in the long run. Tim shrugs again as he takes it.]

Not really. You don't have to get defensive, I'm not about to go shouting around. I just don't want my computer messed with like that again.

"They're my crew. Of course I'm going to be defensive of them." [Kirk moves a bishop before adding.] "Why are you so paranoid about your computer?"

I know you are.

[He waits a while before moving his knight again, taking some time to study the board and, you know, figure out an answer.]

Last vestiges of home. And I don't want anyone messing up my high score on Ninja Ropes.

"I'm fairly certain none of my crew has any interest in Ninja Ropes." [Kirk teases softly.]

Good to know. [Tim is hoping this is still man talk for STAY AWAY FROM MY COMPUTER in the future.]

[It's not. Kirk wants to know why you're so goddamn paranoid.] "It was kind of funny though."

[Tim is offering no more information. :|] Kind of. I hav eno idea how most of those songs go, though.
