A Message From Your New Captain

[captain_jtkirk]

[Much like when the Admiral makes his announcements, the voice of one James T. Kirk floods the hallways and rooms of the Barge and he sounds oh so very pleased with himself.]

Attention people of the Barge.

We've had ourselves a little adventure recently and I won't bore you with the details because it's a long though at times, riveting tale. So I'll just cut to the chase: our dear Admiral isn't running this thing anymore.

I am.

James T. Kirk for those of you haven't had the pleasure. Along with Captain Harkness and Captain Solo who is taking control of the helm.

And yeah. That's all.

Have a nice day.

[ooc: Plot questions go here. IC freak outs or congratulations or WTFGETDOWNFROMTHERE happen here.]

Well, maybe you got lucky. You shouldn't play with matters like this, it is far more dangerous than you think, captain. This is the sort of thing which can get a man killed. Which might be a lesser concern here, but you should still take a care, gentlemen, and not commit acts for the sake of committing them.

Do you at least have a reason?

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

I assure you that I have nothing but the best intentions at heart in this endeavor.

Personally I want shore leave. I think everyone could benefit from a nice break from the hectic days here.

[accountsettled.livejournal.com]

Shore leave. You commandeered a ship for shore leave. As a commendable idea this may once have been, somewhere in the back of your mind, you could have just petitioned him for such a thing, rather than take your own charge.

[gota-badfeeling.livejournal.com]

What can I say? We're a proactive bunch.

[accountsettled.livejournal.com]

Another captain, I take it. You're a foolhardy and reckless bunch. Proactive is not really the word I would use.

[gota-badfeeling.livejournal.com]

Gosh, I could swear I'm talking to Leia right now. You wouldn't happen to come from Alderaanian royalty, would you?

[accountsettled.livejournal.com]

I have no idea where you talk of, but the point is irrelevant. Who I sound like doesn't take away the fact you are acting stupidly and irresponsibly and will get someone hurt or worse if you are not careful. Hell, if you are careful, it might happen anyway. Please gentlemen, this is so unnecessary.

[gota-badfeeling.livejournal.com]

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride, buddy. I know what I'm doing.

[accountsettled.livejournal.com]

You might know what you're doing, but... mutinies do not come without retribution, and to do so with such little reason defies all logical thought. I would hate to see what might come of this if you do not desist, sir.

[gota-badfeeling.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well, we've got the Admiral's blessing on this one. So let's see what retribution comes our way.

[accountsettled.livejournal.com]

I...how on earth? Why would you need to seize control if he had granted it you? Why would he grant you all control? How do I know I can take your word on that?

[gota-badfeeling.livejournal.com]

He didn't try to stop us, so I like to take that as a silent 'yes.'

[accountsettled.livejournal.com]

Do you apply that logic to everything in life?

[gota-badfeeling.livejournal.com]

Yeah. You'd be amazed at how well it works.

[accountsettled.livejournal.com]

Someone will get killed if you keep at such absurd ideas.

[gota-badfeeling.livejournal.com]

Yeah? And how's this gonna lead to more death than the Admiral's piloting?

[accountsettled.livejournal.com]

Because it creates anarchy and chaos. And there will be retribution. There nearly always is. I doubt the Admiral will take it lightly.

[gota-badfeeling.livejournal.com]

He is so far.

[accountsettled.livejournal.com]

They do that. They lull you into that sense of security; tell you that if you lay down your arms and talk, they'll treat you well. They never do. I am only saying this to warn you of the price someone will have to pay.

[gota-badfeeling.livejournal.com]

Speaking from experience there?

[accountsettled.livejournal.com]

Of course I am. It doesn't make my point any less relevant.

[gota-badfeeling.livejournal.com]

No, but it does make it more interesting.

[accountsettled.livejournal.com]

For who, you? I have experience, I advise you to take that into account and listen to what I have to say.
