A Little Chat

[mirroredcommand]

Pike leaned against the wall near James T. Kirk's bedside. His eyes were half-closed, watching as he rested. The security here was terrible to allow him so close after they had seemed to find him dangerous enough to force himself and Spock into those cramped quarters. Oh well, their foolishness was his gain.

He could wait until the sedatives he had seen be administered before wore off. They needed to speak to each other. Maybe it was the devious notions of his mind, but he had a feeling that Kirk would want to know the child-Captain's plans.

There was almost a pout on Jim's mobile features. As if he considered this most unfair.

"I don't know what happened to mine," he mourned. "I think maybe it got ripped off me at some point."

Jim had a lot to do. Get Spock back, find out what was wrong with the acting captain, make sure Jim was all right, and dammit, get a decent uniform for himself.

"Give me the information for your uniforms, make, size, color, if you can remember the codes, and I can produce them for you." Pike offered. What a strange man, this James T. Kirk.

"Can't seem to get the hang of those replicators," Jim muttered, almost to himself. But looked with undue appreciation at Pike. "Thanks. I'll... get those to you." Jim wrinkled his nose. "It's the little things, sometimes."

His expression turned serious again. "Thanks. Again. I'll be in touch."

He also needed to find out what was being done about security, but for now, he was thankful.

"Sometimes. That's why we took the time." He plucked the edge of his vest in agreement, and gave a small wave of two fingers as he went back towards his 'room' just out of sickbay.

[[OOC - It is... wrong that I think they're kinda cute?]]

[I chose to take it as a very odd compliment.]

((OOC - If it's wrong, I don't want to be right. They really are cute.))

[[OOC - Oh, still totally scary and manly and dangerous and all that jazz.

It's like the episode "Balance of Terror." Where the Romulan dude is all, "We could totally have been BFFs if we weren't on opposite sides of this ideological divide" and Kirk's all "OMG yes with sleepovers! Beam you over?" and the Romulan dude is like o.O *kapow*

I made some of that up.]]

((OOC: Ahahahaha fierce Commander Sarek and his purple eyeshadow diplomacy! <3

No, actually; that's exactly how it went. That's the beauty of it. XD ))

[[OOC - Mark Lenard is HOT.

That ep always makes me sad. Because I want them to be BFFs. But then we wouldn't have had Sarek? I don't know. I'm so conflicted!]]

((OOC: I knowww! :D

Here, have a giant headshot! HIS EYES, THEY COMPEL YOU. <3

Clearly nu!Spock must've taken after nu!Amanda. I'm just sayin'.

There were badass prompts to this effect on the first meme, and they were always *ahem* mysteriously seconded, but nothing happened. Sadfaces!

Although, yeaaah, we probably got the better deal with Sarek, long term.

It still would have been badass, though. *wants cake* *also wants to eat cake* *CONUNDRUM*. ))

[[OOC - Lovely! Thank you!

And I see your point.

I'm not sure what you mean about the prompts. Were you referring to Sarek and Amanda or Kirk and his Romulan BFF?

I don't understand why we aren't ever allowed to have cake and eat it. Who made this rule? Someone wants us to waste a lot of cake.]]

[OOC - Tacking onto the end of the lovely OOC comments to say yes, mPike and TOSKirk are oddly cute, and is a shame that there are not more of those prompts filled. SADS, INDEED. Fandom needs moar Kirk and his Romulan BFF.]

((OOC- new RP member interrupts: hi.

Yeah, I have never gotten that expression either. :/ It has always seemed to me that the PURPOSE of having one's cake is to eat it, so why would someone feel remorse for eating the cake and no longer having it? The cake has fulfilled it's delicious purpose. ))

[[OOC - Obviously I understand the idiomatic use of the phrase, I'm just not sure it's the best metaphor ever. But then, maybe it made more sense when it was made up, or something.

Welcome! Look forward to playing with you--PM me if you want to work anything up, or surprise me, I'm easy. I'm also presumptuously assuming we'll be interacting, though now I see you I see you're nu. Well, same still goes!]]

[phaserbrewed.livejournal.com]

((OOC- Any metaphor that encourages the not-eating of cake is probably not a good one, in my book. Obviously, cake was meant to be eaten. :) Obviously.

And thanks! :) I'd love to do something with you! I guess Yeoman Rand (or Crewman 1st Class as she is right now) could run into him in the mess or something after he recovers? I'd be fine with that. ))
