Of those, Mick is the one that I would least like to meet. Having everything set on fire would be extremely inconvenient.

I'd least want you to meet him, too. He's rough around the edges, but still part of the team.

Hopefully by now he realizes that he can't just shoot his flame gun anywhere he wants.

Rough around the edges isn't so bad when it isn't accompanied by everything being on fire.

If you ever miss your crew, you can visit the Tourist. The captain of my own crew is there... although he isn't so likely to set things on fire himself as he is to attract trouble that would do it for him.

The Tourist? Jim wouldn't be your captain, would he?

He would be, yes. [That question is usually accompanied by the revelation that the speaker has slept with Kirk and Pavel really doesn't want to know who ~~Dad~~ Kirk has slept with.] You have met him, I take it?

We've talked. He's a flirt.

[Oh good.] I have heard that about him, many times, from multiple sources.

Does that bother you? Because the same can be said of me.

Not at all, provided I'm not involved.

...In the captain's flirting. I'm not opposed to being involved in flirting in general.

[ she can't help but laugh a little ]

Noted.

Is there anyone you're involved in flirting with now?

[He grimaces, catches himself doing so, and tries to turn it into an unconvincing smile.]

No, not so much. Not intentionally.

Well, I'm sure the tides will change soon for you, if that's what you want.

Perhaps. Thank you. [He's pretty sure he's one of the most undesirable people ever in the history of space reality television, but it's sweet of her to say that.

ANYWAY.] What have you found to do here, other than loitering in very fancy hotels?

All of my favorite hobbies: drink, flirt, and fight.

Should you want company for the first one, I would be happy to lend mine.

Sure, why not.

You want to get a drink now?

Only if you will let me buy. I'm not so new to the making money thing.

Oh, well, if you insist. But I get to pick the bar.

This seems fair. Do you have one in mind?

There was one that looked interesting up the street? Let's go.

[ she will head that way! ]

[He will follow!]

You do try to keep your three hobbies separate, yes? There won't be fighting?

Of course I don't keep them separate, but I will resist fighting unless provoked just for you.

You're very kind, thank you. I have been in two barfights and I didn't enjoy either of them.

What happened with them?

Eh... one of them I would prefer to not talk about. [There was some light torture involved. It's a long story.] The other was very stressful because I had to explain my black eye to our chief medical officer without revealing that Scotty started a fight with another ship's engineering department.
