.071 - he missed you guys (lol no he didn't)

[captain_jtkirk]

I'm back. Any disasters--actually, lie to me if there was. I don't need to know.

If you're new here, then welcome. I'm Captain James T. Kirk and you're probably going to hate it here in a few months.

[Private to Shego]

You're graduating. This isn't negotiable anymore.


[ooc; I found a few free hours, so.. here you go, TLV. Have space captain back. Also I'm back from my hiatus c: mostly.]

Welcome back, Captain. How is she?

lol genderjokes

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

Enterprise or Bones?

It's how (s)he rolls?

[lt-n-uhura.livejournal.com]

Enterprise.

[Private]

I wasn't going to ask you publicly about him.

Bones is getting made fun of FOREVER.

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

She's in spacedock. But otherwise as beautiful as I remembered.

[Private]

It's fine, Uhura. We talked. It is what it is.

Private

[lt-n-uhura.livejournal.com]

Good. So are we done brooding?

Private

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

Define brooding.

Private

[lt-n-uhura.livejournal.com]

What you're probably doing. Do you need a drink? Because I do and I'm not going there by myself.

Private

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

Is it bad to be a twenty six year old alcoholic?

I'll meet you up there in fifteen.

Private

[lt-n-uhura.livejournal.com]

It's worse when you're enabling said alcoholic.

I'll be there in ten.

Private - spam?

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

You really just bring me down every chance you get.

And then show me up. How wonderful.

spam!

[There was no need to respond to that. She just headed down and found herself a place to sit, getting her drink and just settling down easily, hoping that she could just...forget about her inmate for a while.]

spam!

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

[Kirk shows up a few minutes later, with a beer in one hand as he slides into the seat next to her.]

"So I know why I need a drink. Why do you?"

spam!

[lt-n-uhura.livejournal.com]

[Uhura looked over and shook her head.] The same reason as you, only I didn't get a handy little vacation to get everything sorted. Instead, I stayed here. With my violent inmate and your bratty one.

spam!

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

"I'm sorry she didn't behave." [Kirk said, worrying on his bottom lip for a moment.] "What'd Paddy do now?"

Re: spam!

[lt-n-uhura.livejournal.com]

She didn't do anything wrong. She was just...a brat. [Uhura leaned back a bit and just glanced up to the ceiling. What DIDN'T Paddy do?]

He's just...himself. Beating up people, though...he apologized to me about that. Just...right out and apologized and walked himself down to zero.

spam!

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

[Kirk frowned somewhat at that.] "Is that progress or is he up to something?"

spam!

[lt-n-uhura.livejournal.com]

I really want to say progress. He's changed in ways I don't really understand. I'm hoping it's progress.

[She took a drink and just stared at the table.] But I feel like he's doing it on his own. So I don't know what exactly he's done and what he's hiding.

spam!

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

"You're kind of a hardass. I don't doubt that he's starting to shape up."

spam!

[lt-n-uhura.livejournal.com]

[Uhura pretended to look offended.]

I am not a...hardass. [Or was she?] McCoy is a hardass. Spock is a hardass.

spam!

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

[Kirk started laughing and rolled his eyes.] "Bones can't say no to me. And Spock is learning the same thing."

spam!

[lt-n-uhura.livejournal.com]

[Uhura just looked at him, smirking a bit.] I have told you no plenty of times before.

spam!

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

"And it breaks my heart every single time." [Kirk downed probably a third of his beer before adding,] "The hardass doesn't work on Shego does it?"

spam!

[lt-n-uhura.livejournal.com]

I wasn't a hardass on her. I tried to be nice. That didn't work.

spam!

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, she doesn't respond to kindness." [Kirk shrugged and took another drink off his bottle.] "She kinda reminds me of me sometimes."

spam!

[lt-n-uhura.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm not going to treat her like I treat you, Captain. [She laughed and just finished off her drink, wincing a bit as it burned.]
