Jim, hey, didn't see you come in. [Walks over, tapping away at a PADD] I've sent the reports on the toxin back to Starfleet, hopefully I should get a response by the end of the week. I could really use a few more doctor's, if you were willing to ask for a few to be transferred to the ship and if you're not busy later, care to share a drink with me?

[foldedaces]

*The young man doesn't move. He just keeps staring up at the paneling as if he were studying something. Quietly he cants his head to the right as if listening- his eyes never leaving their acquired spot.*

[get_me_a_drink]

...oh, you're ignoring me now? You listen here and you listen good, I have just served double my shift, and unless you're down to help me out of have a medical problem, you can just get out of my sickbay, Jim. [Grabs his arm]

[foldedaces]

*The instant the hand is about his arm the kid is flailing, literally. It's not exactly a keening sound that he is making but it's close enough as he tries to fall over the edge of the bed to the floor away from the loud man. NO GRABBING! :| *

To... to loud. Like drilling. Digging deeper and deeper. Chip the bone- leave a hole. Can't... can't..

[no_dryer_box]

*heard he's back and walks into the room, not at 100% but almost*

Jim...welcome home.

[foldedaces]

*Quietly, Jim raised a hand, canting his head to the right as he slowly pointed toward the panels of metal above them.*

Little soul.. big world. All the stars- many souls. Hear them dancing in the distance. Waiting.

*Finally he turned his head toward the Admiral.* For them.

[no_dryer_box]

*sits near the bed. No one is telling him what's wrong with Jim so he figured he'll try to come up with it on his own*

For who?

[foldedaces]

Not me.

*Lowering his hand to his lap the youth was soon to let his gaze fall away looking upward. It was hard telling how long he had been sitting there like that. Truth be told he wished he was back in his hiding spot down in engineering. Just.. well they thought medical was better for him for some reason. It smelled in there.*

For her.

[mccoy_joanna]

Jim? Are you alright? *Obviously something is wrong if he's willingly in medical, but she's never seen him so still or quiet. It's a little scary.*

[foldedaces]

Shh...

*Raising his hand the blond carefully canted his head to the right still looking up at the paneling as he spoke.* All the stars in the universe dancing above our heads. Foxtrot. Swingin' on a star..

They're all waiting. Waiting on us to find them.

[mccoy_joanna]

*Ok, that was weird. Her training was already kicking in though and she stilled by his bed.* I don't understand...

[foldedaces]

*Jim turned his head to look at the girl. Jo. Jojo. It was a very flat expression of 'you're just not listening hard enough'. But with a sigh he turned around from where he had been facing away from the door to better look at her.*

[grimm_j_reaper]

*wanders over and looks down at him*

you alright Captain?

[foldedaces]

*Oh hey person he doesn't know! He looks familiar but he's not. There's a tick that just isn't right about him. Like a clock out of sync with the rest of the universe. Have a very wide-eyed gaze looking back at you because whut?*

[grimm_j_reaper]

*snaps his fingers in front of Jim's face* Oi! Captain...Ensign Grimm...you demanded me onto your ship...goddamnit

[foldedaces]

*FFFFFFFFFF! Snapping fingers infront of his face was the perfect way to get the youth to flailing backwards up the bed. He's not exactly panting with breath from the sudden in your face action of the man but, well, LOUD!*

Don't... don't know you. Not right. Tickticktocktickticktock. Not right. Not right!

[yeo_man_rand]

She'd been told it was shocking, but seeing it with her own eyes.

"Sir?"

"Kirk?"

"...Jim?"

[foldedaces]

Shhhhhhh.

*Canting his head to the right, Kirk kept his eyes on the ceiling. He hadn't moved since the nurse had told him to stay there. Literally.*

Lots of little souls.. all dancing. Swinging on stars.

*Wait what- was she sad? Noooo don't be sad! Sad is bad!*

[yeo_man_rand]

What had those bastards done to him? They'd just been starting to get to know each other as a team when he'd been taken. Or whatever had happened.

Maybe it would be best to play along.

"Souls? Swinging on the stars huh? Like monkey bars?"

[foldedaces]

*TTThhhpppppt. That's the sound of a raspberry which Jim is giving you, Janice. A smile slid across his face before he shook his head quickly looking down and seeming younger than he was.*

Foxtrot. Lindy hop.
