Miss, while I commend your efforts to maintain an emotional neutrality in regards to the endeavors of myself and my crew, I must express my concern that you seem to be rejecting said neutrality. To progress further with your enthusiasm would be problematic and most certainly illogical, as I do not comply with your attempts to "play me". I can assure you that myself and my fellow crew members are in adequate conditions without your interference. I suggest that you leave me to my duties and seek out new ones of your own.

Your persistence will not change my opinion.

Don't think you have much choice in the matter.

[oftwo]

I have gone through life thus far as an autonomous being and I see no reason to change that.

[slapdash]

Hate to break it to you, Spock, but your opinion amounts to a hill of beans in this situation. They are going to do whatever they want to do.

[oftwo]

Has the same been true for you?

[slapdash]

For the most part.

But, fortunately for me, it has been too bad or humiliating. Yet.

[oftwo]

I would suggest that there is not much that can humiliate you.

[slapdash]

... okay, I'll give you that one.

[oftwo]

If I may ask, what do you mean by "too bad"?

[slapdash]

[ He thinks on it a moment. ]

There hasn't been anything I can't handle. Not all of it is ideal or even pleasant but it's not unbearable, either.

[oftwo]

[He considers that. That could mean any number of things, considering how resilient Jim is.]

Are you in good health at least?

[slapdash]

[ He shrugs one shoulder. ]

In most cases, yeah. In others... well, I got Bones there to help me get better.

[oftwo]

Few medical officers in Starfleet are as capable as Doctor McCoy. You are in good hands.

[It's the truth, but that doesn't mean Bones doesn't grate him a little.]

[slapdash]

[ He gives a little laugh, ]

I'd go so far as to say he's the best for putting up with my ass as much as he does.

[oftwo]

He has an unusual amount of practice, considering how often you find yourself in danger.
