Captain's Log 12 - Assessment

[universal_charm]

Who: Jim Kirk & Anyone
Broadcast: Yes
Action: The Tourist if you want to speak to him in person
When: Now! Right now!

<sub>[ The video comes on and Kirk fills the screen, looking somewhere between perturbed and amused, maybe even a touch confused. Or was it miffed? Either way it's a slightly odd expression and just to his left is sitting a basket most everyone should be familiar with now. It is opened, though the food stuffs is left untouched (for now - he's not Looma, okay?).

He picks one of the items up off the table beside him and holds it up - it's a picture of a bird with some words atop it that read: 'I took a calculated risk, but man, am I bad at math' and titled on the frame as "Self Portrait". ]</sub>

I feel this is a very sassy and unwarranted attack on my character, Atroma. Is there something you're trying to tell me?

[takingkarabusiness]

Yeah, they seem pretty sassy.

[ leaning in the doorframe ]

How are you?

Re: action

[universal_charm]

_{[ He looked over to Kara and smiled. ]}

Well enough, even with this sudden existential crisis.

_{[ He held up the picture by his face. ]}

This bird does not even resemble me.

[takingkarabusiness]

Oh, I wouldn't say that. I think you share an expression.

[candothat]

You aren't that bad at math, sir.

[universal_charm]

I am glad someone appreciates my math skills.

_{[ So good to him, Chekov. ]}

[candothat]

I'm not always so appreciative. One you that I have known was chased up a tree by dinosaurs after going into an area that he was encouraged to not explore.

[tough_love]

Do you make a habit of making terrible decisions?

[Looma what the hell]

[universal_charm]

No, no I don't. Command would have removed me well before now if I did.

[tough_love]

Mmm.

[She's...not sure she believes that, but whatever. Nothing to be gained by pushing it.]

Then I suppose they must intend to inform you that you are very bird-like.

[ Totally not giggling on the inside noooo ]

That is a rather pointed statement, is it not? Alas the good doctor McCoy is not here to rise to your defense!

Re: video

[universal_charm]

I think you overestimate his estimation of my skills, Maglor.

Re: video

[bythewaves]

Do I? But he seemed most fond of you!

Video;

[wolfuncaged]

[Though he's probably on the Tourist somewhere. ]

It seems rather accurate, if you ask me.

Re: Video;

[universal_charm]

Which part?

_{[ He's huffing, don't make him come find you mister. ]}

Video;

[wolfuncaged]

[But he's so well hidden! (He's not, he's in the armoury) ]

The quotation. From what I have learned of you, a lot of your [finger quotes] 'calculated risks' come out good because you have an extraordinary amount of good luck for one person

video;

[maledictus_semper]

Should I feel jealous at all?

[That these Atroma were gifting certain crew with gifts. Ardyn and Kirk had shared a rather....intimate time. He's not about to forget that anytime soon.]

Re: video;

[universal_charm]

What? That you did not receive such an illuminating self portrait?

[Video]

[cajunspice]

[There is only a happy, warm, chuckle that comes across the feed at first, well prepared to laugh at the gift, and it seems, Kirk.]

Re: [Video]

[universal_charm]

_{[ He's just going to sit here and wait for you to finish, sir. ]}

Video

[timelysteward]

Well how absolutely rude of them!

[The clock is at least offended for you, Kirk.]

I am sure you are quite good at math. And calculated risks.

[Huff. SO HUFFY.]

Re: Video

[universal_charm]

_{[ Such a sweet clock, Cogsworth. Lumiere does not deserve you. ]}

I like to think I am Cogsworth, thank you.

Video

[tallasaking]

[Yeah sorry, Jim. All you're getting from Tyrion is the shot of his engineering lab because he is flat on the ground and laughing his ass off.]

Re: Video

[universal_charm]

I hope you knock over a beaker of something extremely offensive to the nose.

[goldkiss]

I think it's cute! A good use of color. [Again, it's hard to tell if he's being serious or not.]

[universal_charm]

I prefer gold and black myself, but I'm probably biased because that's my uniform color.
