_{( A few hours after arriving, and after meeting up with Jim and figuring out some basics, because he's not about to make a public post that makes a fool of him in front of a bunch of people, Bones picks up the comm and says, rough southern accent and all-- )}

Alright. There's obviously no point asking about how to hail a ship that's in orbit two hundred years in the future.

_{( A great start, by Dr. Leonard McCoy. He sounds all business, and you can almost hear him rolling up his sleeves. )}

If this is a city of heroes, I'm willing to bet it's also a city of danger. _{( He says that derisively. )} If you were going to rate this place based on how easy it was to get sick, injured--how would it compare to your home ti--that is, world? Are buildings getting knocked down, people getting crazy interdimensional diseases?

I like to know what I'm working with.

Why can't you just say hello like a normal person? And where the hell are you, anyway?

[greenblood]

Neither of us would be considered very normal people here, Lieutenant.

[ pause. ok fine he guesses he can stop being difficult and take a look around ]

It appears I have found my way to what used to be Central Park.

[sufferably]

One of us wouldn't be, anywhere. _{( Muttering that but hell yeah it's audible. )}

How about you get your ass down here and we'll sit and discuss options like the normal people we apparently aren't.

[greenblood]

[ rude!!! he will keep it in his best interests and ignore that ]

If you can send me your coordinates, I will be there as soon as possible.

[ or as soon as anyone can when there's no transporter beams around :C ]

[sufferably]

_{( You don't get coordinates you get a Map. )}

Think you can figure that out?

[greenblood]

[ how retro of you mr. bones ]

Adequately enough. Shall I presume that you will be with the Captain?

[sufferably]

If he hasn't fallen under the table by then, yeah.

_{( Bones is fairly certain he's winning this drinking contest... )}

[greenblood]

[ his bad idea senses are tingling!! ]

Is there reason to worry that he might?

[sufferably]

No, I just said that for kicks.

The reason is what passes for whiskey in this century.

[greenblood]

[ don't mind him walking and talking at the same time. he's got a funny feeling in his stomach k ]

I would suggest against the consumption of it, but I fear my advice may already be too late.

[sufferably]

It was necessary medication. Given the situation.

[greenblood]

Arriving in the past is hardly a medical situation.

[ he/spock prime did alright, k ]

[sufferably]

Anything can be medical situation.

And arriving in an environment your body isn't adapted to is pretty near the top of the list.

[greenblood]

Inhibiting the senses is not exactly the proposed method of adapting one's body.

[sufferably]

It's a fine enough way of letting everything blur out until you can handle it one step at a time.

[greenblood]

Until it becomes too much of a crutch.

[ he can't even agree to disagree on this one mr bones ]

[sufferably]

I didn't realize you were an authority on twenty-first century substance dependencies.

_{( u suck. )}

[greenblood]

I can realize potentially harmful situations regardless of the century.

[ its just his bad idea senses tingling ]

[sufferably]

No one's insisting you join us, Commander.

_{( in fact, pls don't. )}

[greenblood]

That may prove to be irrelevant as I am already on my way.

[ and has been for a bit now ]

[sufferably]

Then we'll make sure to finish the whiskey before you get here.

[greenblood]

Do try to keep from drawing unnecessary amounts of attention.

[ even if that would make them easier for spock to spot ]

[sufferably]

You're right. Drinking, in a bar? That's sure to cause a riot.

[greenblood]

With the results of your actions sure to follow after said drinking. Particularly in excessive amounts. With alcohol that your bodies do not have an effective form of resistance against.

[ sigh. good thing he's almost there, really. ]

[sufferably]

I can handle being drunk, Spock. And I can handle Jim being drunk.

_{( Lots and lots of practice... ahem. )}
