[When the voice feed starts, it sounds as if the muttering could be someone musing to themselves. An accidental recording, perhaps? But as it rambles on and on and on, it becomes clear that there is some sort of purpose to it, anyway.]

When a man finds himself midway to being marooned, it is both customary per the will and reason and otherwise wis ( Read more... )

[A low whistle.] People in your world actually gave guns to their marooned? Woulda been nice if someone'd given me a weapon.

Apparently, they do rather more than that, given my arrival with all my effects present. And the pistol is nothing to be grateful for, it's more a--pantomimmy of courteous behavior. It would be better if they'd leave a man with a ship. That would be a far better marooning by far.

I got sent here with all my stuff. When I got marooned on Delta Vega, they didn't give me shit in terms of anything useful. [Kirk has to laugh, though.] But I agree with you on the ship part. What I wouldn't give for my girl to have ended up here with me.

Oh, so it's a man that's been double-marooned, is it?

[Yes, very well, that makes him far more kindly disposed to this person.]

And how much yours is she, eh, is it all?

[A pause for consideration and a sizing up. Oh-h..]

Ah, but it's captain. Much more than sailor.

Is that so~?

How much more?

Buckets. Barrels. Loads and chests and, and crates more. More than anyone realizes--save the captain, who always knows the difference, and anyone what has any sense knows it along with him.

Please do calm yourself. [In spite of the sincerity of her request, amusement warmly purrs in her gentle tone.] There should have been someone there when you awoke to explain the situation to you, wasn't there? So, as you may have already heard, your ship isn't here. The Core isn't quite so kind enough as to bring all your possessions here, I'm afraid.

You may have to start making yourself comfortable here. It may be a while before you see home again. [Her voice softens, 'if ever' being the silent implication.]

As for the rum -- [a light, pleasant chuckle] -- it's nearly difficult to tell whether you're really worried about being "marooned" when you're asking about where to have a drink. [There's a faintly, wry touch to her words.]

I am calm.

[He clears his throat. Yes, all right, again.] I am calm. I am merely requiring the presence of my ship which, if my effects are present, then my ship is as well, it's just-- gone.

Gone.

[Yes. A pause.]

And it's rum that helps with the marooning, it makes the time go faster. Or it did last time.

Oh, then you have my apologies. It was difficult to tell that you were calm when you were just crooning about your excellent skills with a pistol. And, I must admit, it's hard to trust a man who can't seem to control his gun. [She's being sarcastic all the way through, but she delivers her words smoothly without a clear trace of it, making it easy to think that she was being serious.]

But I'm afraid that there really isn't much you can do for now. Can't you at least take comfort in knowing that your ship is back home, waiting ever so patiently for your return?

[With a hint of incredulity:] Do you find yourself stranded often?

[Pauuuuuse.]

My ship is here. Canada. If I'm--

You confuse me..

Rum is certainly doable. There are a lot of places out there that sell alcohol of every sort.

[There's a slight smile before he continues.]

Some more worth the visit than others.

Oh, look, an honest answer.

And how is it that one differentiates the difference between the two, mate.

You go in, take a look around, and you'll know right away if it's one of the good ones or not.

[Yeah, he's noticed your odd ensemble, but he won't comment on it. Not yet at least.]

No, not true.
