A little frown of dismay crossed Jim's features at that, an answer ready on his tongue, but Uhura distracted him with whipped cream. A relationship where a girl you were not having sex with would personally inject whipped cream into your mouth was a relationship Jim would treasure, so he leaned forward and opened his mouth for her. He was impressed that the technology of Bete Noire had extended to cans of whipped cream; sometimes it seemed hopelessly primitive ( ... )

"That doesn't sound like me," Jim said innocently. And then his broke, looking down, grinning. "No, okay, it sounds exactly like me." He looked up then, his smile undiminished. "I just choose my battles wisely."

"I haven't known him long enough to know if he does or doesn't. We never really got to the point of feeling each other out properly. He still has his daily smart-ass remarks about getting me into bed. I wish I knew if he was kidding or not so I could handle it, one way or the other." At lest now she was willing to consider that maybe the relentless attempts were his broken sense of humour and not actual advances. It hadn't seemed possible before she'd met Jim before she'd learned what the man could be like given the right circumstances.

Jim paused, thinking about that.

"I can't answer for him, obviously," he said slowly. "That does seem a little over the top, even for me. But if he doesn't know it now, he'll learn eventually that relationships and command don't really mix well." He grimaced. "Though I'd hope he'd also learn that that's not particularly funny."

Uhura snorted, then began scraping the bottom of her bowl with her finger to get the last traces of chocolate sauce. "When did I say anything about a relationship?" No, she was very certain that Kirk's interest in her was purely physical.

"Do you want to talk about it?" The grimace, which even if she hadn't been trained to, she would have picked up on. She sucked the chocolate off her finger and raised her eyebrows expectantly. If he needed an ear, well, she had two of them.

Jim waved a hand, but it was unclear whether he meant to dismiss one point or both. "That's just it," he said. "Sex is a relationship, at least in a closed system like a starship. You can't just leave the next morning and expect things to go on the same way. Or at least, I can't--and I've tried." He shrugged. "There's not much to talk about. I've been in Starfleet a long time. I've known a lot of people. I've tried different ways of making that work... and I realized that if there was a choice, I chose the ship."
