Look, I understand that the holiday season's approaching in some people's timeframes and all that jazz, but anyone who tries to get me to put on a goddamn Santa hat and act all jolly is getting a prostate exam.

Regardless of gender or species.

((OOC: I have to sleep shortly, will pick up! <3)

Just for that I'm rigging the ship's communication system to play nothing but Christmas carols twenty-four hours a day.

......you wouldn't.

[lt_cmmdr_scott]

Oh, aye. And I'd be sure to make it the loudest and most mind-numbingly cheerful drivel you've ever heard. And just for you, Doctor, I'll even make sure most of it goes straight to your office.

Don't push me, Scotty. I'm a desperate man.

[pinball_baby]

C'mon, man. Where's your Christmas spirit?

[bornsnarky]

In my Christmas bottle, but I try not to drink on duty.

1/2

[pinball_baby]

...

[pinball_baby]

Oh, you mean spirit as in the drink...very funny.

Seriously though, Christmas is the best time of the year.

[takeitoutofpark]

If anything, wouldn't Jim be Santa? You'd be... an elf, or something.

[bornsnarky]

[staring at the screen]

An elf.

An ELF.

[takeitoutofpark]

Think about how I feel. Pavel and I would have to be the reindeer.

[bornsnarky]

And that's exactly what I'm talking about, Sulu! It's ridiculous! This is why we have to put a stop to these shenanigans!

You're not cheerful enough to be Santa.

You can be an elf, then.

Re: voice

[bornsnarky]

...

I am not an elf!

[infinite_arcana]

It's either Santa, an elf or a reindeer. Your choice.

Re: voice

[bornsnarky]

I'd prefer to break the laws of physics and skip the entire period, thank you.

[daredtodo]

Understood, Bones.

[That ease should probably be indication Jim's up to something, because he's never that easy to keep in line. Next time he catches up with Bones, he's got his hands behind his back. It would look like a standard, formal posture, except, from behind, it's pretty freaking obvious he's just hiding the Santa Claus hat in his hands. Actually, the grin might give it away, too.]

How was your day, Bones?

Re: [text/action]

[bornsnarky]

Good.

[I'm still suspicious, but I throw myself into my work and am perhaps not as damn observant as I should be the next time we see each other]

Crappy. Yours?

[action]

[daredtodo]

Pretty boring, actually. [Beat. And then he's stepping forward to stick the hat on Bones' head, grinning broadly.]

Get. That. Off. Me.
