Dem Bones
Kirk finally spotted his CMO, “Bones!”
McCoy turned toward him, scowling - and so did the woman beside him. “What?” she demanded. “Where’s Booth?”
“Who?” asked Kirk.
“Agent Booth. He must have sent you, if you know his ridiculous nickname for me.”
“Actually, he meant me, ma’am,” said McCoy. He held out a hand, all Southern charm. “Leonard McCoy, at your service.”
She continued to frown, but shook his hand. “Dr. Temperance Brennan. Why does he call you ‘Bones’?”
“Short for ‘sawbones’,” said Kirk. “He’s a doctor. And you?”
“I’m a forensic anthropologist,” she said. “I work with the dead.”
“Cool.”
