simplestgift | Twenty-Eight Bells: [VOICE/ACTION(ish)]

[It's around ten or eleven at night when the transmission begins. Two voices, Kennedy and Bush, are sounding decidedly sloshed. They are, in fact, sitting at the bar in Good Spirits, because how often do you get to introduce someone to Romulan ale twice and see their reaction the second time like it had never happened before? Only if said person went home and came back and doesn't remember the first time. Due to this, Kennedy sounds considerably more sober.]

Your attention, everyone. Mr. Bush has something he would like to say.

Yes, yes I would.....What was it again Kennededy?

Begin with "my profoundest apologies." And-and end with...with the hair thing.

Ah! Right, right. *ahem* My sensherest apologies to the ladies of Lusheti....I like all of you and your is - hair - is very pretty.

Nunno, William, it's...the envy bit, that was nice. Do add that in.

I envy all of your hair.

And how silly a man are you?

Extremely, Kennedy. Siller man there ever was.

Now recite an appropriate verse.

Help me think of one.

What about, "O woe! O woeful, woeful, woeful day!"

It is.

And...why is that, Mr. Bush?

Hm?

Why is it a woeful, woeful, woeful day?

This isn't England and there's no naaavy. Missthenavy.

And...that's the only reason you insulted the crew, isn't it? Just want things to be like they are at home?

Mmhm.

...Do you need a bucket to vomit into?

Please.

No need to envy my hair, Mr. Bush. All you need is good shampoo, conditioner, and regular brushing.

Not unlike Horatio, then! Make note of it, Mr. Bush.

Aye, aye sir. Ma'am.

What's conditioner?

It's something you put in your hair after shampooing, keeps it nice and soft.

See? Exactly what you, need, William. Women...wanting to run their hands through your hair.

[That may or may not be someone on the journals choking back a snort, Archie]

Oh, is this still...oh, of course it is. Hello, Mirthful One!

[Ever so quiet, and obviously still smiling. He sees what you're doing there, son...]

...evening.

Funny use of the word, hello. Half the time I don't know when I've said it anymore. Hello, Derek. Good evening. Hello doesn't make any sense.

No idea, man. Usually stick with 'hey', myself.

Hey? Hey. Bit like ahoy, which makes a good deal more sense than hello. Hey. Hey, Derek.

Hey, Archie.

Having a good time?

Jolly good time, a little unsteady. Yourself?

Tossing snowballs.

At whom?

--hands.

[he is an intellectual giant.]

Have soft hair and everyone will want to run their fingers through your pretty locks.

Archie, you should use conditioner too.

I'm not that drunk, Ginia.

[He sees what you tried there.]

You're absolutely sloshed, Kennedy!

[No that would be you, Bush.]

Mr. Kennedy, I am merely offering advice on how to have nice, soft hair. I am insulted you think I am insinuating otherwise.

Nonsense. You're not so easily insulted.

Kennedykennedykennedy. You should listen to her, man.

[Bush what is wrong with y - oh yeah, you're drunk.]

So you are right. But I am correct about the conditioner. Really. What's wrong with wanting to look nice?

You! Mister Bush! More compliments about my hair, please.

Does it help with tangling?

[Bush is going to do just as instructed.]

The very most lovely shade of brown I ever did lay eyes on, ma'am! Which -- is saying much; five sisters I 'ave. All brown haired and pretty themselves.

[Just be glad he isn't thinking about them when he's sober.]
