Who: McCoy, open, multiple threads/people encouraged
Where: Dining hall.
What: Uhura told McCoy to go get a hobby that wasn't drinking or sitting on his space porch and yelling at kids to get off his lawn. He goes to chill and read in the dining hall and some damned tree is there sending mental waves to decorate it.
When: Saturday
Warnings: idk, there's still mistletoe floating about.
Notes: Like I said, multiple threads. And thank you mods for just posting that tree thing, I was sitting here puzzling over what to have him doing lol
McCoy really didn't want to admit to himself that he was having trouble following Uhura's suggestion. He had hobbies, well, he had things he did in his free time. So those things might have been relaxing in his cabin or the pub, or hanging out with Kirk. Sometimes he played pool at the pub alright. It was just hard to fit in a game of pong or whatever people did around a ship when he was in charge of the health of 400 people. Even in the Barge Pavi had to count for at least 200 and you never knew when something would pop up.
But Pavi's surgery had gone smoothly and McCoy was at relative peace with the universe- or a cease fire at the very least. So he picked up a book from the library, some old thing with a title he had never seen before and headed to the dining hall to sit back, have a cup of coffee and read. Of course when he got there things didn't go according to plans.
The giant tree gave him pause for a moment before he ignored it and went to get his coffee. About a page into his book he couldn't stop glancing at the tree- wide and empty. He frowned. The boxes of decorations stood stubbornly right back at him. After he read the same sentence three times he sighed in irritation, put the book down and went to open a box, grumbling to himself as he did so.
It was a little bittersweet though, in a nostalgic sort of way. He picked up one of the ornaments, staring distantly at it before glancing back at the tree. Well it was better than the mistletoe.
