Now that Cat is convinced that the bombs aren't going off (she checked all the clocks she could find, just to be that little bit more sure) she's shifted the focus of her organization. After firmly admonishing the Extras that they still had to stay inside, she asked a few of them to join her in setting up a clear space in a room near the kitchen.

McCoy had always been a grumpy man for the latter half of his life. Always dealing in scathing remarks and sarcastic quips, he had not been tempted to punch the living daylights out of someone since his brief amity with a surly Tessma named Arvid when he was seventeen. Now that was a story and a half.

But somehow this "The Doctor", inverted quotes, had managed to piss the Starfleet doctor off to the point where he wanted to find him and shake the other man until he reacquired some tiny molecule of common sense. But until then, he was sulking outside the various pieces of the Enterprise their crew had brought with them, practising his aim with a hatched box of tennis balls at his feet and a phaser attached to one hand in a white knuckled grip.

And missed every single one he had tossed out in front of him so far, which was why he had taken this activity outside: like hell was he going to risk damaging and scuffing up his sickbay practising his aim with this damn thing.

If McCoy possessed any level of thought transference like Spock was able to do, he would pull a face at Enfys comparing his rational mood swings to that of a hormone-ridden expecting mother since his hissy fits were perfectly acceptable after being threatened onto the back a motorbike despite his aversion for them. Or anything. He was a man of simple pleasures.

But luckily for the doctor, he finds something that is tangible for him to be annoyed with as the woman straightens his clothing before she heads into the mansion and beckons him to follow. And follows he does, with a stomp to his step into an unfamiliar mansion that was probably chockfull of injured people.

Oh yes, there was that resentment for "The Doctor", inverted quotes, bubbling up again as he reached for his pouch slung over his shoulder.
