re: recent threads in which jim is jim.

Irene, Koriand'r, Carol ... That's hardly what I'd call a list, especially inside a week. I don't know what you find so funny about it, and I cleaned Bones's sheets afterwards so he can't complain.

[ THANKS FOR LETTING HIM USE YOUR PLACE, BRO. ]

[ L;FAKSMDALKDJLA no okay she's sorry, she'll play nice. clearing her throat a little. ]

Doctor McCoy [ jim said she could call you that ok ] forgive me. That was out of line.

[medicos]

[ he snorts. ]

Don't worry about that, I just had a sudden, disturbing revelation. [ he gives her half a smile. ] But, like I was going to say eventually, if you're having troubles with the Captain, you come to me. I'll set set him straight.

[redundancy]

[ no no no don't put her in the same category as james kirk please ]

It's much appreciated, sir, but I feel you've got enough on your plate [ concerning the captain ] as it is already.

[medicos]

Nothing I can't handle, for the most part. [ jim is like an overgrown child, and he has one of those already. he's fine. ]

[redundancy]

All the same, the Captain's given me strict orders to ease your load when I can.

[ hehe load ]

So I'd rather not add to it.

[medicos]

Did he? That idiot. [ nope nope nope no fondness there at all n e v e r. ] I'm pretty sure that's an abuse of power.

[redundancy]

Would you rather I not? If my presence is only going to be a hindrance, I can easily remain within the labs.

[medicos]

No, I'd be very grateful for your assistance, Dr. Marcus. You've been a valuable asset to the medbay when I needed your help. [ back when, you know. ]

[redundancy]

[ she smiles faintly. ]

It was the least I could do after deceiving you all.

[medicos]

Get your mind off that guilt soon, Doctor. No one blames you, and you did it for the right reasons.

[redundancy]

[ she doesn't argue where good intentions have led other marcuses, and instead simply nods. ]

Yes, sir.

[medicos]

And I think you know the story of how Jim got on the Enterprise himself.

[redundancy]

[ despite herself, there is a faint twitch to her lips. ]

It did make for one hell of a dinner table conversation.

[medicos]

I'm sure. I'm still getting the dirty looks from that.

[redundancy]

I think, professionally speaking, the Captain has validated your actions several times since then.

[medicos]

Only because he'd have gotten in trouble, too. [ only not. they both know that. ]

[redundancy]

[ whatever man, she can smell the bromance from here. it's like pon farr, but with more aggression. ]

I don't think a man like Captain Kirk has any real fear of trouble.
