Spock is no longer on the ship.

[fencing]

Can't imagine he ever would, sir.

When did he - leave?

[captain_jtkirk]

No idea.

He didn't send you to keep an eye on me, did he?

[fencing]

No, sir.

That would be admitting that you need someone to look after you.

[captain_jtkirk]

Spock seems to think so.

[fencing]

Mm.

[ GEE HE WONDERS WHY. ]

No, I'm here on my own, sir.

[captain_jtkirk]

What'd you ask for?

[fencing]

[ Your life. ]

Might jinx it if I tell you.

[captain_jtkirk]

Come on, you aren't superstitious.

[fencing]

I might be.

I'll tell you if you tell me yours.

[captain_jtkirk]

My own planet. [Not really but lolol he's so funny]

[fencing]

[ he can play your game, captain. ]

My own garden.

[captain_jtkirk]

I could've given you that on Enterprise.

[fencing]

You could've named a new planet after you if we discover one.

[captain_jtkirk]

But I couldn't own it.

[fencing]

I couldn't own the garden if it's in your ship.

[captain_jtkirk]

Where are you even going to have this garden if it's not on the ship?

[Stop bullshitting him]

[fencing]

Back on Earth, maybe. I live there.

[ you can't stop this sass. ]

You have to pay for a planet if you want one.

[captain_jtkirk]

Obviously that's why I made the deal.

[fencing]

Okay. Same here, Captain.

[ his lips are sealed. ]

[captain_jtkirk]

[Kirk's pretty sure you're lying to him.]

No offense Sulu but that's kind of a waste of a trip.

[fencing]

I like plants.

[ that's not a lie. you know his file. ]

What's important to you is different from mine. [ this is a jab to an oblivious kirk. he might be bitter. :c ] Sir.

[captain_jtkirk]

[Why do you hurt him :c]

Noted.

You want a tour of the place?

[fencing]

[ there's an obvious moment of hesitation before he answers. ]

That would be great, sir.

[captain_jtkirk]

I'm on level four, room three.

spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam

[fencing]

[ it takes sulu approximately twenty seconds to pull his shit together and get out of his room to meet the captain. if he's going to do this, then he's going to do it like the starfleet lieutenant that he is. with dignity and all that shit. the ball is rolling, and jim is calling his bluff, but sulu's not folding, not for this.

he arrives in front of jim's room, pulling off the tape pressed against the door with a raised eyebrow before he knocks. ]
