[Kirk and Shego have the strangest conversations. And since he left in the middle of one, that is exactly where he's coming back, which is now gloriously broadcast to all.]

--ring dream that the Enterprise is being eaten by an octopus in space and for whatever reason, Tim is there and all he can say is 'that is so cool' like it's the realization of all his hopes and dreams. And I consider pushing him out of an airlock. Is that weird?

[Pausepause]

Shego?

Sheeeego?

It's rude to start ignoring me in the middle of a conversation, you know. We can start manners camp all over again.

"Some stuff happened with me and Tim. I..." She leaned forward, staring at the floor. "The way that I changed last week, I...I was cool with saying stuff that right now I'm not. And he asked me if I still meant what I said and I just...I couldn't say it." And then, a little bitterly: "But he could."

Ah. Kirk is also an expert in this kind of thing too. "Saying stuff is overrated if you ask me. Does he know you mean it? If you even do, I mean. How did he react when you guys talked?"

She had no idea if she meant it. She had no idea what it was supposed to mean, how it was meant to feel. And she especially didn't know why putting words to it was so goddamn important.

"I don't know, okay? I kinda....stopped talking. And I haven't heard from him since then." Tim's drunken misadventures still being a glimmer on the horizon at this point.

"Well. As not good as completely ignoring him is, I think you should figure it out for yourself before you can say anything to him. And if he's worth anything, he'll respect that. And if he doesn't, I'm going to shoot him."

That eventually forced a small smile out of her.

"This is like the twentieth time you've threatened to shoot him for something. You're never gonna get to actually do it."

"Little bastard. He'd probably think it was the coolest thing ever to be shot by Captain Kirk too. Which completely ruins the point." Jim tipped his head to rest against hers for a moment. "I think you care about him, for what it's worth. And I think he knows that."

She elbowed him in the ribs but there wasn't much feeling behind it. "I know that. He knows that. I just don't get why he needs me to staple a word to it like that'll make it more official."

"Because people like to hear nice things once in a while," Kirk gave her a ribbing back, always a believer in the eye for an eye thing. "I mean, would you rather I just never said that I cared about you or that I did say it like once a month?"

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

"That - that is exactly my point, Kirk. I have no preference. You don't need to say it and I don't need to hear it because I - "

She faltered, abruptly running out of steam.

" - because I already know."

I never got this tag :c

Well, that was nice to hear and you bet he was going to use that against her if she ever started doubting him again but. "Well, you aren't Tim. Just maybe he's one of those people who needs to hear it."
