You know...

[smartass_captain]

To be honest, I'm kinda starting to wonder if you like getting me into trouble and hurt a bit too much.

I'm not that bad. Maybe next time think about if you're gonna be able to finish a thread you toss me into before you just half kill me for convenience sake.

That fucking hurt. So, thanks for that.

Hey, at least y'all didn't lose an arm. I mean, it didn't hurt, but...

[betarade_spill]

Praytell, whom be this "bones" mine player be tempted to invoke toward thee?

[smartass_captain]

Oh, hell. Did Daisy get that back on you?

[smartass_captain]

My CMO, best friend, sarcastic southern medical genius with so-called 'legendary hands'.

He says it, not me.

[notalldead]

She did, actually! First time she's had to do it for me. Felt darn weird, I'll say that much.

Glad to hear either way that y'all were out there fightin' the good fight.

[smartass_captain]

I ended up spending most of the fight coordinating civilians trying to help out with the wounded.

[notalldead]

Still important! The less casualties, the better.

My writer keeps thinkin' about how this was such a 'great' event which is kind of a spit in the eye. I get they had fun, but have some class, miss.

[smartass_captain]

Yeah. I'm better at making decisions and leading than I am kicking ass, I guess.

Your 'mun is about as fucked up as mine, then. The word 'fun' no longer applies the minute anyone dies.

[uhurajustuhura]

Are you okay, Captain?

[smartass_captain]

I will be, Lieutenant. Don't tell Bones though.

[He lifts up his shirt just a bit. Mighty big bruise on his side.]

That was wide open a bit ago, but I'm on the mend.

[uhurajustuhura]

[She grimaces.]

Still, that's not exactly nothing.

Dare I ask what happened?

[smartass_captain]

Would you believe me if I said 'demons'? Because I didn't until a huge spider thing was trying to impale me with its spike legs.

[This sounds bad, Jim. Explain, quick before she gets that look.]

Was tryin' to save someone. I didn't exactly jump in for shits and giggles.

[This time.]

[uhurajustuhura]

[He often gets 'the look.' But at least these days there's usually more respect somewhere behind it, even when he does those stupid things he's always bound to do.

She raises her brow, dryly.]

Well, at least it wasn't a Klingon.

Alright, so did you save this someone?

[smartass_captain]

Reciprocated. I saved him from getting impaled, he saved me from bleeding out and losing my organs all over the floor.

[A shrug. He knows better than to lie to Uhura.]

[bornsnarky]

Jim what the hell.

[smartass_captain]

Awww.

It's not my fault this time!

[uhurajustuhura]

I guess that makes me feel a little better. I could've done without that imagery, though.

[There might be the makings of a smile at the corners of her lips, but it's a small one.]

Is Dr. McCoy around this place, at least, to make sure you don't get yourself killed next time?

[smartass_captain]

No. And we're not going to tell him here, either.

It'll be fine Uhura.

[uhurajustuhura]

[She sighs.]

I've heard that before, Captain.

[smartass_captain]

Yeah but I mean it this time. Bones isn't there where I am. No one is. What good is worrying him if he can't help?

[bornsnarky]

Having read the rest of this comment chain - sorry for peeking, ma'am - what in the flaming hell are we going to do with him, Nyota?

[bornsnarky]

Uh huh.

Do go on.

[Running his eyes over you, frowning]

[smartass_captain]

I swear to god Bones---

[uhurajustuhura]

[She smiles a little. Really, it was only a matter of time until Bones showed up.]

I'll leave him in your very capable hands, Doctor. I'm sure you can handle the captain.

[bornsnarky]

Can you stop trying to get yourself killed? Maybe for a day, even two?







[ooc: I am so glad I know you a bit now and McCoy can be a shithead to Jim - a concerned shithead but a SHITHEAD XD - without me worrying quite so much that you'll feel like that's how I feel ooc.

tl;dr please don't think that's how I feel ooc, lolll.]
