Some basic voicetesting for the Big Man Himself

[faire_en_sorte_que]

I do have to say that the journal name you've given me is a bit on the clever side: something showing some respect for my roots in France as well as what I normally say while in command of a ship.

But with the mention of ship I must remind you of something, Mun: I have a duty to the Enterprise, and while I'm certain Will can handle his own on the ship I still have a responsibility to Starfleet and to my crew to lead by example. I cannot do that while I am in your...what was it you called it, "headspace"? Understand, I do prefer some fantasy time now and again like my forays in the Holodeck as Dixon Hill, but that is on my off time.

I request you return me to my proper place.

Jean Luc Picard? You are rather French aren't you! [Honey listens to Jean Luc completely entranced.]

Wow! I hope your mun lets you go back to your ship! It sounds like you like it a lot!

Though I hope your new one doesn't get destroyed!

[faire_en_sorte_que]

Very sharp, young man. Yes, I am French. I was born in La Berre.

I would certainly hope not. She's the Flagship of the Federation and a powerful ship on top of that. She has survived attacks by the Borg. I am certain the Enterprise E has several years left in her.

Tamaki is from France too! But I don't know which part, I should ask him the next time I see him!

The Borg? What's that?

[faire_en_sorte_que]

[Oh, to be innocent of the Borg.]

They are an alien race of Cyborgs who believe that perfection is attainable through the forced disposal of free will. And they are immensely powerful.

Tamaki? Is it safe to assume this is a friend of yours, Mitsukuni?

[mmmm_cake]

That sounds terrible. [For a moment, as he speaks, the other might look his age. Aside from the height, he really can't change that.] No one should ever have their free will taken from them.

Oh! [And then he's smiling again! This kid might come off ass the smallest bit bipolar if one was paying too much attention.] Tamaki is the best! But we can be friends too you know!

[faire_en_sorte_que]

[There is a smile. It's not a happy smile, but a knowing one. He is glad this boy has wisdom.]

Good to know you possess knowledge beyond your years. As for the friendship...well, until I have to move along, back to my ship, I suppose some companionship would be appreciated.

[mmmm_cake]

It's very important to be who you are. So to have it taken away? Anyone who wouldn't think that isn't sad is a bit of a fool.

[He nods.]

It's good to have friends! Even if they can't be forever! You can enjoy them as long as you can! You seem nice, and smart, I bet you have a lot of friends on your ship huh?

[faire_en_sorte_que]

I do have several friends there. Most of my bridge crew I would consider friends, and I consider all aboard my ship as under my protection. The Enterprise holds over a thousand people,

[He is not going to mention his previous dislike of children. it owuld be rude to do so.]
