Meme

[mirroredcommand]

How this meme works:
1 - Leave a comment, saying you want to be interviewed.
2 - I will respond; I'll ask you five questions.
3 - You'll update your journal with my five questions, and your five answers.
4 - You'll include this explanation.
5 - You'll ask other people five questions when they want to be interviewed.

I make no promises that you will like the answers to your questions. Damn 'internet' things. Don't understand them, but I'm learning.

Nothing will counter the hair that those things leave behind.

1. I'm pleased to hear it.
2. Then we'll speak of it elsewhere, if more detail is necessary, but that tells me much.
3. The ship, evidently, is singing to itself? It may be responding to Scotty's drunken ramblings, and has nearly killed Sulu... on accident, of course. Kirk is still alive, somehow. I gave them a code to be able to beam him supplies. I want him to be alive when I return.

Indeed many things will, including regular brushing to remove loose fur and certain alterations to the ventilation system which would gather any shed hair through the use of air currents.

1. I shall endeavor to ensure that you possess this knowledge at more frequent intervals.

2. Why does it matter? I am curious to know.

3. Fascinating.

The fur will still end up all over our bed and clothing and food, no matter how much you work on it.

2. I'd prefer not to discuss it here.

[mirroredspock.livejournal.com]

But there are many benefits to the company of a feline companion that exceed the negative value of the inconvenience caused by stray cat hair, including an increased sense of well-being and lower systemic blood pressure.

2. I find that this increases my curiosity regarding the topic. Later, then.

[iron-command.livejournal.com]

A feline would greatly increase my systemic blood pressure.

[mirroredspock.livejournal.com]

It would not occupy much space. I would be an excellent caretaker of it.

[iron-command.livejournal.com]

Why not something more loyal and able to be taught? Cats have all the loyalty of someone like Sulu.

[mirroredspock.livejournal.com]

Cats are pretty. And I enjoy their independent nature.

You speak of dogs? They... slobber.

[iron-command.livejournal.com]

You've always enjoyed the hell hounds. Are you calling them ugly?

I think you enjoy petting them because of how it feels under your hands. Soft, warm, vibrating? Mmm...

[mirroredspock.livejournal.com]

The hell hounds are very striking beasts. However, they are not well-suited to life aboard a starship. Also, they slobber.

That... is an improper suggestion for such a public forum.

Christopher, I am green at the ears now. Why do you enjoy discomforting me in such a fashion?

[iron-command.livejournal.com]

They barely slobber, and they do not shed.

I enjoy it because it is surprisingly easy to accomplish.

[mirroredspock.livejournal.com]

That is untrue. They ruined three pairs of my trousers the last time I visited with them for any length of time. Also, their paws are very... rumpling. And they smell.

You are the only one who finds it so.

[iron-command.livejournal.com]

They are active creatures, unlike felines who want to lounge about all day like people were there meant to serve them.

As it should be.

[mirroredspock.livejournal.com]

Cats lounge and expect humans to serve them because it is the most logical course of action, particularly when confined upon a starship.

The hell hounds would be miserable. As would I be if forced to share our quarters with an unhappy one.

[iron-command.livejournal.com]

I am not suggesting we bring the hounds here, I'm saying no pets.

[mirroredspock.livejournal.com]

But a pet would be enjoyable.

[iron-command.livejournal.com]

I know. I already seem to have one in my rooms.

[mirroredspock.livejournal.com]

I am unable to determine whether or not that is an insult to my person.

[iron-command.livejournal.com]

Not an insult, or at least it wasn't intended to be. More on the side of ... kinky.

[mirroredspock.livejournal.com]

That is... quite acceptable. Though I would still appreciate the procurement of a feline.

[iron-command.livejournal.com]

No.

[mirroredspock.livejournal.com]

But why not?

[iron-command.livejournal.com]

Spock we just discussed this. NO.

Besides, someone would kill it.

[mirroredspock.livejournal.com]

I would regard any such intent quite personally.

Quite personally.
