[ Video + Action ] We Are Not Amused
Who: Jim Kirk + You!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Yes, in the shopping areas
When: Today
[ Video ]
[ The picture that comes up is that of one Captain Kirk, his lips drawn into a meld of thin line and irritated purse. It is a rare expression for him, but in this case it is well deserved. He's sitting in his room, on his bed, the wall behind him, and a slug perched on his shoulder. He needed the soothing influence. ]
I don't know which if your sponsors -
[ He inserted air quotes here ]
Thought to send this particular care package, but it's not nearly as tactful, funny, or even comforting as you might think it is.
[ He held up a letterman style jacket, which seemed innocent from the front in its black and white coloring. But then he turned it to the back, where proud letters were emblazoned -
I DIED AND I SURVIVED ]
I got a whole box of them. If you want one, I guess... come and get one? Though really if you want me to burn them, I'm happy to do that too. Take some marshmallows to them as well, because why not at this point?
[ Action - Bazaar/Shops ]
[ Kirk had taken some of the jackets from the box and brought them here. Even though he had made an offer to burn them, he thought they might be more useful if they could traded for credit or some sort. The leather and construction on the jackets was nice and sturdy. Surely the people out here could appreciate that and pay a pretty penny for it, even if the back was... unpleasant.
He could be seen trying to barter the jackets for some supplies, mostly food to round out the goo, sometimes some things to keep them occupied like new games he found, or even just some new clothes to freshen things up. But he seemed to be having similar conversations at every stall - ]
What kind of bad luck you trying to bring around here? Ain't no way in hell I'm trading for that!
[ And other variations, often with less than viewer friendly wording. Definitely not a hit. ]

About my death? Well - not...
[ He paused, considering his words. ]
I view it as a catalyst, I suppose. At the time, I didn't, but now... now I see it as that.
no subject
[Morgan is genuinely interested. He's fought a lot, but he hasn't had many near-death encounters.]
no subject
It clarified a lot of things for me. Changed me, really. But then, I think dying and coming back does that to a person.
no subject
Do you think you're a better person after?
no subject
I try to be. I hope that I am. The people that brought me back and stayed by my side after deserved that much of me.

[ That gets a smile and a quiet laugh out of him. ]
Well thank you. I like to think that I have done what I promised I would do. Quite a few people stayed at my side after, when I don't think I honestly deserved it.
Death is not the method I would suggest to actually figure this all out though.
