voice, TOP GUN ENCRYPTIONS 95%

[leaps]

[ for post cyllene chitchat ]

Hi, it's Sulu. I wanted to check and make sure you got off the station alright.

voice, SUCH IMPRESSIVE ENCRYPTIONS 95%

[comesalong]

Just barely! What was that, some giant rat trap, luring us all over with cheese and new boots?

TOP SECRET CONVOS WITH AMY OK

[leaps]

I think that about sums it up.

[ basically that is sulu's whole impression of shore leave. ]

I wanted to be sure you weren't stuck. I haven't heard of anyone missing, but I just...you know.

SHE'D BE INTO CODE JUST SAYING

[comesalong]

I'm fine. Do you always worry this much?

[There's a smile in her voice though. However that works.]

DOES SHE WANT A CODENAME? SHE CAN BE EAGLE ONE.

[leaps]

[ a pause. on the other end sulu is shrugging before he remembers that this is not video. ]

Can I tell you something a little...farfetched?

CAN SHE BE EAGLE ONE LEGS?

[comesalong]

God, yes please.

SHE CAN BE ANYTHING SHE LIKES

[leaps]

[ oh he was not expecting a yes!! ]

I knew you before. When you were here before. Did anyone tell you about that?

[comesalong]

Before.

[She repeats that word, which might answer his question in a roundabout way.]

I've been on this ship before?

[leaps]

Yes.

[ he doesn't know if he should push at this. it feels selfish to, but then again, shouldn't she know? ]

[comesalong]

[She knows how this works - wibbly wobbly timey wimey. But she's still curious.]

What happened to me while I was here? Were we friends?

[leaps]

Yes.

[ sulu's voice is carefully steady. ]

You saved me, once.

[comesalong]

Saved you? How did I do that?

[leaps]

It's a long story. Just trust me, I owe you one.

[ because talking about the masks is still difficult, sorry amy. ]

[comesalong]

You don't owe me anything. Or just be my friend again and we'll call it even.

[leaps]

I can do that.

[ sulu says this so, so seriously amy you don't know. ]

[comesalong]

Do you like checkers? Between you and me, my husband's a bit rubbish at it.

[leaps]

I like checkers.

[ omg are they going to play checkers ]

If I'm terrible at it you have to be gentle.

[comesalong]

[Yes, but you have to say 'queen me' instead of 'king me' when you play with Amy.]

Oh, I'll be gentle.

[Because she's known for that.]

[leaps]

Thanks.

[ he will totally say queen me ok ]

Let me know when.

[allbloodyhail]

You met Van Gogh?

[comesalong]

How did you - oh. You saw it.

[allbloodyhail]

Which I'm guessing means you got something from me.

[comesalong]

Yeah. I think it was something really sweet and then just something...really weird.

[allbloodyhail]

I've got plenty of weird to offer, can you be more specific?

[comesalong]

Something about a...a sex robot? Is that really a thing?

[allbloodyhail]

[ spike is so so glad this is text bc jfc this isn't okay. ]

It was a thing. Was.

A mistake thing.

[comesalong]

And what about the confession? Was that a mistake?

[allbloodyhail]

To Buffy?

Maybe. But it was still true.

[comesalong]

Then if you ask me, it wasn't a mistake.

[allbloodyhail]

Risks were meant to be taken, right? Know you agree with me on that.

[comesalong]

Unless you want to lead a safe, boring life. Some people prefer that. [Rory.] But not me.

[allbloodyhail]

You've sure got a lot of sense for a blue bonnet.

[comesalong]

Please. I have a lot of sense for a queen.

[allbloodyhail]

A queen, huh? I didn't get that memory.

[comesalong]

My kingdom is pretty small. Just the one subject.

[allbloodyhail]

You talking about your fiance or that doctor bloke?

[comesalong]

Husband. And the Doctor's more of...an illegal alien.

[Oh she made a joke.]

[allbloodyhail]

Same thing. So he's just trespassing then?
