[Hey, Prom. What's this you looking at? It's a Kirk sleeping on a couch. He doesn't look nearly as dignified or put-together or... well, captainly like this, sprawled out like a college student who stayed up for a week studying for finals. His arm is hanging off the couch and his mouth is slightly open. Looks like he's going to be down and out for ( Read more... )

[The images from the dream startle Jack at first, since he's still not entirely used to TENEKA, until they spur images from his own memories to flicker before his mind's eye-his parents, the farmhouse-and that just startles him even more.]

What the hell... [He quickly shakes his head to try clearing his thoughts, and finally focuses on the video feed.] ... What the hell? Is this some kind of trend now?

[Jim's own thoughts don't wake him, but someone else's does. When you're in (what passes for) the military, you wake up at the drop of a hat. Who knew?]

Huh? Wha? Whozzere?

[After being shaken like that, Jack can't help but be a little on edge. Though he tries not to sound it, his anxiety (and maybe even a little fear) is likely to bleed through the connection.]

Did you mean to make a recording of yourself sleeping, or what?

I...

Oh, shit.

[Jim sits up quickly.]

No, no I didn't. Didn't know the damn thing was on. Sorry.

Yeah, that's what I figured.

[He pauses to sigh and run a hand over his face. Why the hell is he so rattled?] Sorry. It's just...this isn't the first time, you know?

First time?

That someone's made a film of themselves...sleeping. Recently.

[Which is definitely weird, at least to Jack-and Lord knows he's seen more than his share of weird things by now-but that can't be why he got shook up so bad, can it?]

Really? [Jim runs a hand through his hair.] I didn't mean to. I guess it just turned itself on. These things are prone to doing that anyway, apparently.

Yeah... That's true.

Seems like they usually wait until you're doing something you really don't want other people seeing, though.

I don't really care that people saw me sleeping, but it's not like I wanted them to.

Yeah, but people have been caught...er-doing other things by it, too. [He shouldn't have to elaborate with this guy, right?]

[Jim laughs.] Yeah, so I've heard.

Yeah. [Jack doesn't. He's still unnerved for some reason.]

So...uh. Be more careful with it, I guess? [Though he's not even sure how well that might work...]
