[So Kirk has some very questionable survival instincts and hit on Ivy so she turned around and pheromoned him into thinking that everyone is stalking him. No one really is but you won't be able to convince him of that.]


Don't you people have anything better to do besides follow someone around and break into their room?

[Edited in like an hour later, this is a different voice. It's Spock's. He's killed incapacitated Kirk for a little while.]

The Captain is currently unavailable. Please direct your inquiries towards me.

Comments

[Kirk retreats backwards, keeping a distance between them. He's paranoid but he hasn't got a single thought about attacking first.]

Yes.

[logistical]

Which objects in particular?

[He does not make any move to attack, not yet. He is quick, much quicker than Jim, and has no doubt he can do it any time he wishes.]

[captain_jtkirk]

[Liar liar, pants on fire.

Kirk kind of gestures in the direction of his bed and the wall. Everything over there clearly has been touched.]

[logistical]

[When Jim turns his back on Spock, he gets nerve-pinched.

Honestly, Captain.]

[captain_jtkirk]

[And Kirk crumples like a ragdoll.

Don't you dare let him wake up on his floor.]

[logistical]

[Spock finds a lever or something. He's ingenious.

Anyway, Jim will wake up on his bed to find his first officer sitting quite calmly at the desk.]

[captain_jtkirk]

[Did you grope him too?

Kirk wakes up with a groan, rolling over onto his back for a few moments before he seems to realize that Spock is there and then he groans.]

New rule, you're not allowed to do that to me anymore.

[logistical]

How do you feel, sir?

[captain_jtkirk]

[Irritated with you. But that's normal.]

Fine.

[logistical]

Dr. Banner does not seem inclined to assist you.

[A little cold.]

[captain_jtkirk]

[Kirk doesn't respond right away, too busy putting everything into place that's happened. Then he sits up and looks over at Spock with a frown.]

Why not?

[logistical]

[Spock is referring to his and Vesper's exchange on his communicator, to double-check.]

It seems Ms. Ivy has attacked people before, and since she did not kill you, or force you to kill someone, he considers it progress.

[captain_jtkirk]

[Kirk remembers reading that conversation, just none of it really clicked until now.]

You've got to be kidding me. [He sounds rightly ticked because really, all he did was flirt.]

Progress would not be doing it in the first place.

[logistical]

Precisely. [Okay he does sound maybe annoyed.] I would advise you to keep away from this individual.

[captain_jtkirk]

[Kirk rolls his eyes and doesn't bother to address that piece of advice as he reaches around for his communicator to see what he missed while unconscious.]

You lied to me.

[logistical]

Vulcans do not lie, Captain.

[captain_jtkirk]

And nerve pinches hurt, Pointy.

[logistical]

The pain you are feeling is from incorrect posture.

[Perfectly smooth, and he gets up.]

[captain_jtkirk]

[Or. It's from being dropped like a sack of potatoes. Kirk acts like he didn't hear that at all, as he finishes reading the most recent comments to the network. Strangely, he misses Bones suddenly, for reasons that he can't really say.]

What do you think about all of this, Spock?

[logistical]

I have insufficient data.

[captain_jtkirk]

[That's it, that's why he misses Bones. Bones would never say something like that to him after he was drugged.]

Excuse me?

[logistical]

[Spock ain't Bones, pal.]

As I do not know the exact circumstances of your encounter with Ms. Ivy, I cannot provide an accurate assessment of the situation.

[But come on, from his reaction to Banner, you should know he stuck up for you B(]

[captain_jtkirk]

[Does it matter that you stuck up for him if you think that he probably deserved it?]

I flirted with her and then she drugged me, Spock. That was pretty much the extent of it.

[logistical]

[It takes only a few seconds for him to consider.]

As I suspected, her retaliation was disproportionate.

[SIGH.]

Again, I advise you to keep away from this individual.

[captain_jtkirk]

[Disproportionate. Kirk's not surprised by Spock's reaction, if he thinks about it, but sometimes, he'd really like it if the Vulcan would pay more attention to his human half.]

I heard you the first time, Spock.
