.029 - the month of march is cursed

[captain_jtkirk]

Next year, I think I would enjoy just a cake for my birthday.

[Privates to T'Pol and Cissie, same message but you can't read the other's response]

I'm sorry.



[Kirk didn't know for a day or two that Shego was in the Infirmary recovering from the death toll as well. And of course, he felt guilty for that. He felt guilty for a lot of things that had happened over the past few weeks, really. It still took him a few hours to summon the will to get up and go visit her.]

"Hi."

[And with that simple greeting, Kirk sat down on the edge of her bed and nudged at her to move over so he could lie down too.]



[Edited later: Private to Cooper]

So you stole my phase.

Didn't realize it was your birthday. [Oops.]

[Private]

Uh... got you some Centauran brandy, though. To make up for it. Peace offering and belated gift work?

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

It was actually a few days after but I appreciate the apology.

[Private]

I never turn down free alcohol but do I really deserve a peace offering?

[Private]

[most_feared]

Yeah. You don't have any idea how many times I've had some crazy fucking thing take over mine or someone I work with's head. It wasn't your fault.

By the way, my inmate took your phaser. I gave it to T'Pol to return to you.

Who's your Inmate?

[She cracked an eye open, glared at him for rousing her from a state of comfortable half-asleep-ness, but still slid over for the sake of a quiet life.]

Hey. What happened to you?

"Got my neck snapped by Kay when he figured out I was..." Kirk trailed off and just waved his hand around in the air, signifying all of the crap that had been happening. "And yourself?"

"That blonde chick Buffy cut my head off with some giant axe-scythe thing because I was trying to kill her."

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

Kirk scowled at her. "And why did you try to kill her?"

[Private]

[with_discipline]

[Harumph.] I believe I already accepted your apology.

[Private]

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

This time I actually mean it instead of saying it to save my ass.

[Private]

[with_discipline]

Then this time there is an acceptable excuse: you were not yourself.

[Private]

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

Doesn't stop me from feeling guilt over it.

[Private]

[fuckyoucynthia]

[BLAND] Did I?

[Private]

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

Don't play stupid with me.

[Private]

[fuckyoucynthia]

Can't say I'm playing anything with you.

[Private]

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

Then tell me why you took it.

[toldastory]

Agreed. I think we all should collectively celebrate our birthday in April.

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

Only if there's a lot of booze.

[toldastory]

There should be. You me and Sveta deserve it.

[Private]

[cisskabob]

Don't be. It wasn't your fault. Are you okay?

[Private]

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I mean... I will be at least. There's been worse.

[Private]

[cisskabob]

...What happened to you?

[slayage]

Do you have the birthday curse too? All of mine start or end in mayhem.

[Private]
I was the one that killed Shego.

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

Generally just bad things happen. Like my father dying and being mind controlled.

[Private]

She mentioned that. Can you tell me what happened?

[slayage]

Oh. Sorry. If it helps, my ex boyfriend turned evil on my birthday and started killing my friends?

[Private]
Yeah. Uh. Big old Rex nanoguying everyone event-thing.. Which I guess you weren't here for? She was one of his bodyguards. I had to stop it. I only wanted to disable her, I didn't want to kill her, but whatever Rex put in her made her really powerful. I don't think I had a choice. [She's second guessing like every day. MAJOR MAJOR GUILT HERE.]
