he has never been so humiliated

[parked]

That virus was awful. At least it prompted me to actually go through that creepy "meme" and take stock of my life. I'm more than a little concerned that some of those prompt "fills" weren't too far off, but I'm going to erase that fact from my mind.

So, at least that answered some questions as to whether or not the next virus was going to be worse than being turned into a kid. It was.


[LOCKED TO JACK HARKNESS]
And now that all I have to deal with is my immense humiliation by your hands, Jack, I really did want to talk to you. How are you, after your visit to the hospital?

I hope you know that I refuse to be baited into asking what, exactly, a stopwatch could provide for you two.

[51stcentury]

Please. Would I try to bait you into asking me something like that? I wouldn't tell you what they were anyway. That'd just be spoilers. And you need to figure some of them out on your own, anyway. Telling you would just...ruin the experience.

[parked]

How generous of you.

[51stcentury]

I certainly think so. I've left doors open for you to explore yourself. Don't think Ianto'd lend you out his stopwatch, though. He's kind of protective of that thing. You could definitely ask him about it, though. Maybe he'd tell you, fill you in on some details. It'd be worth it for the reaction, at least.

[parked]

Yeah, that's a great idea. I'll just start asking him about all his sexual preferences after that hilariously awkward and mortifying sex-on-the-brain virus where you had to point out his accent. I wish I'd thought of that.

[51stcentury]

Well, hey. Don't tell me that I'm wrong. Especially after that virus, you should be well aware of how great that accent is. I mean. Now that you've thought about it like that, and all.

[parked]

I'm an expert at repressing memories.

[51stcentury]

You'd like to think that, wouldn't you? If you repeat it enough, will that actually come true? Because as far as I know, that's never worked for anyone ever, consciously repressing memories. Because every time you think of repressing it, that means that you'll have to think of it in the first place.

[parked]

The trick is to just not think about it.

...Which, and this is me going out on a limb here, I'm going to say is the exact thing you're going to try and get me to do.

[51stcentury]

Why, Lieutenant Sulu. Do I seem like the kind of man that would try and trick you into doing something like that?

[parked]

Considering that sounds exactly like something Jim would say? Yes.

[51stcentury]

Oh, come on. Is it really such a bad thing?

[parked]

I never said it was a bad thing. You're just going to be sorely disappointed when trying to rile me up fails.

[51stcentury]

Well, I won't worry too much if it doesn't work this time. If you keep sticking to my archivist like you have been recently, I'll have plenty more opportunities to be able to do so.

[parked]

I'll be honest, I'm looking forward to laughing maniacally as your repeated attempts to mess with me fall flat.

[51stcentury]

You know, I wouldn't be so sure of that. I'm pretty sure I've already managed to fluster you more than a few times so far, after all.

[parked]

That's cheating! Viruses don't count.

[51stcentury]

Oh yeah? Says who? Yes, it might've been cheating. Still got the desired effect across, though, so in the end, a win for me, really.

[parked]

I say so, and since it's my delicate emotional state you're toying with, I think I have some say in what the rules are.

[51stcentury]

Delicate? Please. I may not know much about Starfleet, but I definitely know a thing or two about the military, and delicate you lot are most certainly not. Certainly not when it comes to flirting or innuendo. And as I can recall, not when it comes to imagination either, not if good old Artie was anything to go by.

[parked]

I'm practically a monk, for all you know.

[51stcentury]

You're right, I don't know. Although, if you are a monk or even remotely similar to one, especially in sexual drive, you realize I'm going to have that much more pleasure in coaxing some sort of a reaction out of you sometime, Sulu. So really, that doesn't help your case in the slightest.

[parked]

Maybe this is all part of a clever ruse. I could be a mastermind when it comes to manipulating people like you, you know.

[51stcentury]

You know, don't take this the wrong way, but having met you in person that one time, I'm kinda doubting the whole mastermind at manipulating people thing.

[parked]

That's just what I want you to think.
