.076 - in which kirk isn't good at personal goodbyes :c

[captain_jtkirk]

I guess I was asleep for a month.

And now I'm leaving. Things changed and I don't even really understand it but it worked out that I can, so I'm taking it and no one should be at all surprised. And maybe start a prayer chain that I never have a reason to come back because three and a half years and three Inmates is enough.

So that's it. Goodbye, Barge.

I can't say I'm surprised, but it'll definitely be strange not having you around, Jim.

I spoke to Shego already.

[It actually hadn't clicked. It's ridiculous, but his mind hadn't clicked around the fact that they were both going, yet.]

I--

Take care of each other, okay?

[buildindreemz]

[Oh, these are some feelings. They're not really that close, but he was one of the first people she met on the Barge who's still here.]

Good luck, Jim. Try not to get into too much trouble.

[She is actually intensely jealous. She just wants to go home at this point. :c]

I'm pleased to have known you, Captain. Peace and long life.

[AUGH YOU TOO YOU JERK. :C]

Maybe don't get in any stupid space battles you don't need to get into. That'll probably be a good idea.

Goodbye, Captain.

It's been an honour to be your friend. [Even when you were teaching him drinking games and drawing on him, SEE HOW CLASSY HE IS.] I'll miss you.

You're -

Well, you've more than earnt it. You're leaving today?

[19centconstable]

I am sorry to see you go, Captain, but I do understand. And you have, of course, done terribly admirable work here.

[trenchcoatedly]

Enjoy your freedom.

[truth_is_cold]

[This one's a lot harder. They never did quite make up. But... still-]

Take care of yourself, Captain.

Private; after any other threads that occur

[gotgreenmagic]

You ready?

[Spam] you have no choice

Dick is not really good at saying goodbye to people forever. It's why he still sometimes ended up hooking up with Kory when he saw her and why he and Babs had put things on hiatus instead of just saying this is never going to work. Saying goodbye forever usually meant someone was dead, and even then, with the amount of times people seemed to come back from that kind of thing, it didn't always mean forever.

And maybe this didn't really either, because if we were being honest, as long as Dick stuck around here, he could still potentially pop by to say hi. But this still felt like it was something more final than usual, and he wasn't really interested in doing it over the network.

Which also had to do with the fact that Dick was still babysitting Aristotle, so after braving the distinctly less fun than they looked in the movie (and not as unusual as it probably should be, considering the kind of fiascoes he threw himself into at home) death traps in the hallway, he knocked at Kirk's door, kind of freaked out looking dog in tow.

Goodbye, Captain!

[prayformefather]

See you.
