Captain's Log 10 - Sound the Bugle Now
Who: Jim Kirk + You
Broadcast: Yes; everyone
Action: The Tourist
When: Now
VIDEO
[ When Kirk's face appears on the screen, there is a weariness to him. Had his eyes been red rimmed one might have thought he had been crying. Maybe he had and he just hid it well. His shoulders slumped ever so slightly, and there was no joy in his eyes, or a smile hiding in the corner of his lips. In fact, for a few solid heartbeats he says nothing, just looks into the camera as if waiting for someone to stop him from what he is about to say. ]
For all those that knew him, Leonard McCoy has been returned home.
He will be sorely missed.
[ Kirk looks like he wants to say more. Knows he should say more. Captains needed to say more and be strong for everyone else, that was what they did, but he couldn't. Not this time. It was to much this time.
So he just takes a breath and reaches up, shutting off the feet. ]
THE TOURIST
[ His message sent out, after exhausting all possible reason for him to be elsewhere and unreachable, Kirk slumped in the chair he sat in, resting his forehead against his clasped hands. For a long moment his room is quiet, almost deathly so - ]
DAMN IT!
[ The shout, followed by the sharp crash of glass shattering against a wall, the wet slop of liquid hitting the floor. Then silence. ]

Re: action
Oh, he argues about that a lot too, but honestly that's a lost cause because, well, it is me we're talking about.
Re: action
Re: action
Hah, that is true. Honest and consistent. Not sure what more you can ask for.

Re: action
Hah, well he's that too, so I guess I really do have it all in him.

Re: action
[ He nodded. ]
Though, I'll be sad. I won't be meeting the same you, in my world, if I do at all. So I'm glad I got to meet you here, Ezri. You too, Dax.

Re: action
I know, which is why I'm saying I'm glad I got to meet you here. There's a lot about this place that's complete shit, but getting to meet you? That's been pretty great.
action
It has been. I never would have imagined meeting the James T. Kirk.
Re: action
I know I'm not quite the one you were expecting, but I hope I still astounded and amazed.
