[Heavily filtered - probably 97% - to Malcolm Reynolds]

[It takes a few hours after the experiment wears off for this letter to appear - she's been collecting her thoughts, working through everything, and then composing the message, mustering every ounce of dignity she can.]Captain Reynolds ( Read more... )

[ Since McCoy had no experiment-induced feelings to feel dissipate with the end of the experiment, he had to settle to the journals updating him to the end of the experiment with their angry yells. Because it always happened that way. Imagine his disappointment that it was the sobbing of their communications officer in her room that was the sign that whatever happened the past week had run its course.

Rather than go out and sink his fist into Malcom's face, he waited until Emony left the room Uhura shared with Spock before getting to his feet and pushing the door slightly ajar. ]

Uhura?

[ action ] lt_linguist March 1 2010, 18:01:23 UTC

[Uhura has regained her composure, at least for the moment, and is flipping through a book - not her journal, it's a book of poetry. She glances up at McCoy.]

Hey. Crazy week, huh?

[ action ] hippocraticly March 2 2010, 01:26:02 UTC

Yeah. [ The doctor had the list of headaches to prove for it. It was funny how he dealt with more agro being unaffected by the experiment than being affected himself. He leans on the doorframe, not quite straying over that threshold yet, crossing his arms over his chest as he watches the woman flicking through the poetry book. ]

Hopefully things will settle down now. [ He pauses, before his voice becomes softer when he next speaks. ] ... You feeling all right?

[ action ] lt_linguist March 2 2010, 01:34:26 UTC

[She pauses to consider that question. Uhura is nothing if not honest.] I will be all right. Once I work through all this guilt and anger and helplessness. And once I make sure Spock is okay.

[ action ] hippocraticly March 2 2010, 01:46:13 UTC

... He'll get over it. [ He hoped the Vulcan would, anyway. It wouldn't bode well for their crumbling crew morale if he was emotionally compromised again. That particular infatuation was deeply disturbing. ] You both will. Free will in this place is just a damn illusion and this experiment is a perfect example of it.

[ action ] lt_linguist March 2 2010, 02:12:49 UTC

I'm sure he will, I just... [She has to laugh a little.] I know he'll need to be alone for a while, and I'm pretty anxious to see him.

[ action ] hippocraticly March 2 2010, 02:55:21 UTC

Want me to collar that hobgoblin and drag him back? [ Or alternatively, he can spike his meals with chocolate since he has taken over the kitchen. ]

[ action ] lt_linguist March 2 2010, 03:05:26 UTC

[Oh, Bones. She shakes her head, still smiling a little.] That won't be necessary, Doctor. He'll be here in his own good time, and, I'm sure, ready to apologize and reassure me that he doesn't blame me in the slightest.

[ action ] hippocraticly March 2 2010, 04:13:59 UTC

He damn well better. [ Because damn it, he doesn't like seeing most of the ladies in this house upset. ]

[ action ] lt_linguist March 2 2010, 04:21:41 UTC

I'm not upset because of anything he's done. I'm mostly angry with myself.

[She pauses a moment.] Also, causing great pain to any Malnosso I meet sounds appealing.

[ action ] hippocraticly March 2 2010, 04:25:19 UTC

I'll forget the oath when it concerns that organization. [ After all, being turned into Spock and swapping bodies with a six foot bunny during past experiments was anything but pleasant. Especially when their Vulcan crewmate seemed to take restrained pleasure at seeing him affected with the latter. ]

Can I get you anything?

[ action ] lt_linguist March 2 2010, 04:51:39 UTC

At this point, I think I'd rather see them suffer than bring them to Federation justice. [This is her agreement. Uhura does not appreciate her love life being tampered with.

She opens her mouth to decline immediately, then, oddly enough, thinks better of it.]

Tea?
