*alex and rakesh both stare at each other with wide eyes, then as one they both smack their comm units and call for immediate red alert from each of their vessel's respective commanders, followed by continuous scans for reaper activity*
(dragon's teeth? i get the feeling you aren't talking about the pyramidal concrete pillars used during WW2 as an anti-tank fortification the description of them being like caltrops almost makes them sound like czech hedgehogs, though)
*alex quickly comes to attention and tosses the remnant of the bane stick to the ground, crushing it under his heel and showing he really wasn't overly affected by the narcotic at the same time - at least not in a way perceivable to typical humanoids* don't jinx it...you say 'something's not right' and 10 seconds later…
alex: it'll take more than a single bane stick to negatively affect me, and i don't plan on doing more than one - i only needed the one for the headache *he says as he exhales another small cloud of bluish-purple smoke away from the group* (you know, i wonder what burning wolfsbane smells like...guess it would depend on…
(no, i meant why is that the only thing you posted? no comment on the stuff he's smoking, no response to his question, STILL no acknowledgement of completely ignoring everything briana said - it's like you're deliberately TRYING to turn krystal into a total ashhole)
sex certainly doesn't sell anymore...no need when any idiot with access to a 3D program and some decent skill can just make their own TRIBBLE - and covering fetishes that AREN'T limited to being physically possible like RL stuff is
*alex is still nursing his bane stick as krystal and jessica beam down, the canine waving lazily to both of them as they appear* is that everyone or are we expecting any more?
alex: ...TRIBBLE it, i can't deal with this right now - to hell with the slowed reactions, and make sure you have that tribble checked for prior births *he says before ending the link and pulling a thick cylindrical object out of a pouch on his uniform, sticking it in his muzzle and then lighting it with a quick wave of…
alex: how do you think i know? i was THERE during the whole control fiasco...the better question is, how do YOU know? *he narrows his eyes suspiciously at nick...until briana finishes, then he has the same 'WTF' look on his muzzle*
alex: well, those things don't work on me...at all - not anymore anyway, yet he's standing here disguised as a cardassian trying to play dumb with me...which really, REALLY irritates the hell out of me, so when you're done up there, could you come down here and knock some sense into him? also...make sure to check that…
alex: commander, are you close enough with your brother that you'd be able to recognize him, regardless of any disguise he might be using, psionically-aided or otherwise? wait...what tribble?
alex: no he isn't; he's a half-trill called eli, related to briana victoria - brother, i believe...and a thorn in my paw i just can't seem to get rid of, apparently
alex: officers with swords are so victorian age...by the way, you know your CMO isn't actually a cardassian? (that IS the same eli who intruded on his ship while they were in the past, isn't it?)
(*cough*cuchulainn*cough*) rakesh: i would not recommend melee with the hur'q - their acid is very caustic...the only reason i'm doing it is because i'm, well...me
every federation starship is constructed of rock - even nowadays that same rubble was all over the bridge of the discovery and enterprise during their battle with control's fleet
