lazy spam for merlin

[Kirk disliked hospitals and sickbays and infirmaries and anywhere where medical procedures were done, even when he had to be there because he was dying or close to dying or just needed stitches. When it was pretty much dead in there, and he was more or less forced to be around just in case, and maybe there wasn't much medical help he could do but there was a lot of stocking and counting that his genius level intellect could handle.

For about a half hour and then he got really bored of it. And there was just something about Merlin that said bother me all you want.]

"Merlin, do you know what chess is?"

Comments

.... take shots at work

[captain_jtkirk]

"We could do strip chess?"

okay c:

[takeyouapart]

"That sounds...unhygienic," Merlin offered. "And what if there was an emergency?"

you better have done so

[captain_jtkirk]

"How long does it really take you to redress?"

I totally didn't I'm sorry :cc

[takeyouapart]

"I'd rather not have to worry about it if I need to be more worried about someone's injuries."

that's okay I won't drink at my job later either

[captain_jtkirk]

"... so are we playing a game or not? I won't make you strip."

we're both very responsible c:

[takeyouapart]

"You couldn't make me strip," Merlin said cheerfully. "Is there something we can play while I'm working?"

tbf i can't care for the old people while hammered

[captain_jtkirk]

"Twenty questions? Rearrange McCoy's office?"

nobody said hammered, that would be excessive

[takeyouapart]

"Twenty questions," Merlin said in a cautious I-don't-know-what-that-is tone.

not with this job

[captain_jtkirk]

"It's pretty self explanatory."

bb :c

[takeyouapart]

"How are you supposed to...win?"

not really. It's just hard work.

[captain_jtkirk]

"So you think about something and I have to figure it out in twenty questions, and if I don't, you win and if I do, I win."

I stand by my sadface

[takeyouapart]

"...all right." He paused for barely a moment. "I've thought of something."

[captain_jtkirk]

"Is it or has it ever been alive?"

[takeyouapart]

"Yes." He made a note on a bottle label and put it away in the little cupboard he'd commandeered for storing potions.

[captain_jtkirk]

"Is it a plant?"

[takeyouapart]

"No. Do you want a clue?"

[captain_jtkirk]

"No, that would ruin the game. Is it a person?"

[takeyouapart]

"No. I don't think you're going to get it in...seventeen questions."

[captain_jtkirk]

Kirk really didn't care if he got it. Any conversation was better than sitting there in silence and counting while Merlin did whatever he did with those potions.

"Mammal, yes or no?"

[takeyouapart]

"What's a - oh, no, I know." He still hesitated a moment longer before shaking his head. "No."
