Scenario Builder
You are...
1. Working in the lava lamp factory
2. Watching "The History of Twine" in the cinema
3. Admiring the fish in the barracks tunnel
4. Lost in a topiary maze
5. Riding the shuttle between buildings
6. Trying to sneak into the administrative offices
You’re feeling...
1. Inexplicably happy
2. Like you could fall asleep at any moment
3. Angry enough to punch someone
4. Nostalgic or sentimental
5. Like someone stabbed you—oh, hey, they did, fancy that
6. As if life really ought to be more like a Broadway musical
Somewhat unusually...
1. You can only speak in rhyme
2. The room is full of old-fashioned toys
3. A box covered in runes drops down from the sky and lands at your feet
4. You hear the voice of your worst enemy in the walls
5. You would do anything for a grilled cheese sandwich
6. You have a cute and cuddly kitten...where did that come from?
no subject
He can't stop thinking about where he wants to be. Where he thinks he should be.
Then his stomach gurgles. God. He should have at least had an apple earlier. He regrets that now. This will make work miserable on top of boring.
no subject
Yeah, he is too happy. Is it an act? Maybe.
Either way, the Doctor sits back up and continues working, humming something that sounds classical.
no subject
He knows that urge is a little unnatural. He had gotten over his punch everything phase a few years ago. He was working very hard to be a better man. What is wrong with him?
"Yeah but being that happy is just unnatural. No one does that."
no subject
He hums a few more bars, finishing his one lava lamp.
"Studies show that being happy reduces the likelihood of stress-related illnesses."
no subject
"Sex works for stress relief just fine."
What is he? Twenty-one again? He has no idea why he is being such a shit right now. He still doesn't like this guy.
no subject
Yes, he's a hologram. No, he's not revealing that just yet. The Mobile Emitter on his arm can be explained away.
He drops another peice and ducks back under the table again...
no subject
Now he is curious. The guy isn't a Vulcan. He still feels like being a shit but less like he has stepped back in time five years.
"Have trouble getting it up?.... Can't find your type?"
He shouldn't wonder what anyone's type is when he barely knows them. He just feels like being a pain while he puts the lamp together.
no subject
He pokes his head up and fixes Kirk with a pointed look.
"We're at work."
Duh.
no subject
He smirks as he finishing screwing a part in place. The lamp is almost ready. Needs a few final touches.
"We're just talking. It would be different if it wasn't just that.... No offense but you're not my type."
He prefers ladies. Men don't do anything for him.
no subject
He sits back up, starting work again.
"For me, personality is also a key."
There may be some heavy implications in his tone right there.
no subject
"I'm not really able to commit. I'm upfront about that."
He learned his lesson. He knows he isn't emotionally mature enough. "Trying to avoid hurt feelings is important."
He tests the lamp. Good it works. He moves it over to the rows of lamps finished today and grabs fresh parts.
"Hey pal, you need any fresh parts?"
no subject
And another part gets dropped. Under the table again.
He's saying nothing about feelings, he's not one to preach, after all.
no subject
He shrugs then moves to set up the parts so they are at least in order as he works.
"Sorry if I'm being an ass. Woke up on the wrong side of the bed, I guess. Plus..."
Why is he talking? "I ran into some people I know. Only they're different. Like their genders got swapped."
Mostly. "Except for my XO. It's weird."
no subject
Back out from under the table. He works on his second lamp.
"It's not like you'll cancel out if you touch the same version of yourself."
no subject
Oh. Oh man he should have paid more attention during theoretical physics that day. He feels stupid.
"Old Spock tricked me!" That likely sounds weird coming out of the young-looking man's mouth. He looks slightly out raged.
no subject
That namedrop causes the Doctor to look up, because, really? Who in Starfleet hadn't heard of Ambassador Spock.
"An epiphany, I take it?"
no subject
"Just not sure what it means. Just that Vulcans are a pain in my ass."
Except his Spock. His Spock is now his best friend next to McCoy.
no subject
He's recalling the many times Tuvok couldn't be dissuaded from something logical. Because he was right.
no subject
Wanting to shake Spock at least once a day is normal for Jim.
"They've gone through a lot in my ..... time line."
