homeless but why would you want him

[kerykeion]

Are you bloody crazy? Of course you are. I've got a lot of things to do that rank higher on my list than be forced to spend quality time with all the sanctimonious pricks you've got running around up here.

[One in particular. He really, really wants to break his nose. Maybe then they'd look different.]

Kind of have a rebellion to fight, you know how it is.

Well, that's Vulcans for you - at least some things stay the same. I mean, I suppose. For all I know your Vulcan could be a-- a psychotic killer in my world. Or a comedian. [Beat.] But, uh. Probably neither of those things.

[Perhaps this conversation would have gone better had it taken place a little later in his timeline. Once he was more capable of talking to people like a normal human being instead of like a teenager stumbling through a conversation with his crush, for example. But hey. Social skills are overrated. At least he hasn't gotten overexcited yet.]

I'll take your word for it. [It doesn't sound as if he will, but at least he's not preaching again.] At the very least, you're doing well enough to get by. What more could one reasonably ask?

[Bashir just raises an eyebrow. Seriously, how in the world do you talk so much.]

Probably not.

[And, well, he isn't. But hey.

Seriously, he doesn't even know what do right now, these are the most words people have said at him without profanity or threats involved in...forever. Quite possibly his entire life. What does he do with this?]

I could think of a few things.

[He clears his throat. Again.]

Well. Yes. I... yes.

[Which is about all he can say to either of those. He has two modes, really - reassuring medical professional and massive dork. Occasionally he manages indignant or outraged as well before it peters out into one of the first two categories. None of them really apply here, though. Now that he's determined not to be a complete dick he's almost tempted to go for medical professional, but somehow he doesn't think this Bashir would be very happy about being patronised. He settles for very obviously changing tack, instead.]

So - your, ah, your 'mun' isn't thinking about putting you anywhere in particular, then?

[kerykeion]

[Good call, he's never happy.]

Why would she, when she has you to torment instead? And I'm completely okay with that.

[Dry:]

Glad I could be of help.
