Mun couldn't resist. ;P

[cptn_j_kirk]

[Sneaks up behind him and leans in closely to whisper in his ear.] The whiskey's gone...

You're evil XD

[transwarp_beam]

[wakes with a start] Wha-?

Why is the rum- er, whiskey gone?!

Only sometimes. ;)

[cptn_j_kirk]

[Laughs quietly and pats him on the shoulder.] Thought that might get your attention.

[transwarp_beam]

[stretches, grimacing as his shoulder cracks loudly, and looks wearily up at her] Time's it?

[Tread down to follow Jim and Spock, though they had turned in the other direction. After finding a certain engineer sleeping against a machine, McCoy raised a brow and tread over] Montgomery?

[transwarp_beam]

[awake in an instant, taking a moment to focus on him; scrubs a hand across his face wearily and uses a guardrail to pull himself to his feet] Time's it?

[get_me_a_drink]

Thirteen hundred hours. Easy man, easy. [Puts a hand out, in case he falls] Don't want t'bring yer'self to yer' feet so quickly. You were out like a light there; I think it's time you went back to your quarters an' got some sleep. The rest of engineering can work with these doodads and make things work just fine.

[transwarp_beam]

[shakes his head] Can't leave now. There's too much t'do. Was lucky t'get an hour's kip there - I need t'get back t'work.

[walks over holding a cup of coffee, hesitates when she sees him sleeping, but then moves closer] Mr. Scott?

[transwarp_beam]

[cracks an eyelid open, brightening slightly at the smell of caffiene] S'that coffee?

[sweetinaskirt]

Sure is. [holds it out] I'm sorry to wake you, but the Captain wanted an update and you weren't answering his messages.

[transwarp_beam]

[uses a guardrail to pull himself to his feet and reaches gratefully for the coffee, swaying a little] You're an angel, love. [takes a long drink before blinking at her] Hmm? What's th'captain want?

[nurse_cchapel]

[has to ask a few people where to find him, but does eventually, worn herself but carrying a plate of sandwiches for him; when she does find him, she sits down close and speaks softly]

Hey...

[transwarp_beam]

[blinks and takes a moment to focus on her, no other clear sign of the transition from sleeping to waking] Mornin'.

[nurse_cchapel]

Closer to noon, now, actually. Apparently you worked until it was already well into the morning. [extends the plate to him] Thought you might be hungry.

[transwarp_beam]

Ugh, I slept for that long? [sits up straighter, rubbing his face, and takes a sandwich] Cheers
