.072 - a hostile (not) takeover

[captain_jtkirk]

[Much like when the Admiral makes an announcement, Kirk's voice permeates the entire Barge. Though unlike the Admiral, this voice is pretty easy to pin down. And it's glaringly obvious that it isn't the Admiral.]

Attention people of the Barge, this is Jim Kirk speaking. It's just two things so I'll be brief. The Admiral's not flying this thing right now and you people better start looking for your swimsuits.


[ooc: And this has started! By now Kirk has set their course for Risa. No going back now, suckers. He sealed the way behind him, just fyi]

That isn't really an option for someone living in my century.

[captain_jtkirk]

Well this is a lot different than Enterprise, so...

[insolubleriddle]

Does it have the navigation system of a water-bound ship?

[captain_jtkirk]

Can't say. I haven't been on a naval ship.

[insolubleriddle]

There's plenty of media on them.

[Hang on, he has pictures...

And he holds up a book with this in it.]

Does it look anything like this?

[captain_jtkirk]

[I'm sorry he's being a bit of a troll]

Can't be sure.

[insolubleriddle]

[This calls for more pictures. Here's one, and here's another.]

Is it becoming any clearer?

[captain_jtkirk]

It is definitely not that color.

[insolubleriddle]

I was giving you the benefit of the doubt, but now you're definitely teasing.

[captain_jtkirk]

I really haven't been on a naval ship.

[insolubleriddle]

I can tell you they aren't as interesting as space ships.

[He ends the video feed, and puts the books aside.]

I suppose this means I'll have to remove my spiffy captains hat.

[Which he isn't actually wearing, but just in case Kirk didn't already think he was a nerdy derp...]

[captain_jtkirk]

You wouldn't have been a captain anyway.

[insolubleriddle]

It's the novelty of it.

[batmanschmatman]

Stop fishing, Nygma.

[insolubleriddle]

But Dick, I want to fly the cool magic ship.

[batmanschmatman]

Too bad.

[insolubleriddle]

Alas. I'll have to console myself with paper airplanes.

[Well, it was worth a try.]
