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?

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.

[51stcentury]

...nope. I still think you're bluffing. There was too much flailing during that last virus for me to really believe anything otherwise.

[parked]

Like I said, viruses don't count! You're right, though, I'm sort of terrible at bluffing, so I won't try to pretend I'm leading you on some crazy goose chase.

[Even though he secretly thinks he's won because this conversation has not 1) revolved around Ianto nor 2) been them arguing about petty things.]

[51stcentury]

And I still say they should, because even if you don't want them to, they happened, didn't they? You're more than welcome to use the next one you can against me, if you think it would make things even.

[parked]

That'd be dishonorable. I would never use a virus against somebody.

[51stcentury]

You know, you say that now, but I'm betting that the first chance you get to humiliate me with something from a virus, you're going to be all over that. Well, good luck, my friend. I can be particularly suave, a good portion of the time.

[parked]

Well, it depends on exactly how humiliating the virus was, I guess...

Yeah, I've heard that about you.

[51stcentury]

Trust me, I'm sure it's only a matter of time before the virus cooks something up that might give you some bait. You'll still have to catch me off guard, though, which is harder than it sounds.

Oh, you have, have you? Who from, then? Has Ianto been telling you stories about me, hm?

[parked]

I'm always up to facing new challenges. So long as they don't involve 3D chess or Saurian brandy, I mean.

I wouldn't call them stories, exactly...

[51stcentury]

Saurian brandy? Don't know it, but if it's anything like hypervodka, sounds like it packs a pretty mean punch.

What would you call them, then?
