[leading then, letting the doors remain open to reveal a moderate room with a large bed, sparse but decorated with one or two Vulcan art pieces]

[ glancing at them ]

[one of them is the IDIC, the triangle and circles in complementary colors to the room. the other is actually a plant arrangement, minimalistic and somewhat plain, but the focus of the arrangement emphasizes the single blooming flower, the only bright object in the room.]

[thatboyisamonster]

What is that?

[scienceping]

[he tilts his head]

Could you clarify?

[thatboyisamonster]

That flower.

[scienceping]

An indigenous species, I believe. Spock would know more of it.

[thatboyisamonster]

Ah . . . I see.

[scienceping]

Does it interest you?

[thatboyisamonster]

[scienceping]

A simple floral arrangement, primarily for its aesthetic qualities. I found the practice pleasing in my youth so it is not surprising that Spock continued it.

[thatboyisamonster]

You practiced flower arrangements?

[scienceping]

[thatboyisamonster]

You both had fancy childhoods.

[thatboyisamonster]

Would you care to switch, Captain?

[ship_ping]

As hilarious as it'd be to see you in Iowa...

[thatboyisamonster]

I thought so.

[ship_ping]

You guys just hafta teach me your fancy shit someday.

[thatboyisamonster]

The first lesson would be not to call it "fancy shit".

[ship_ping]

That's what it is though.

[thatboyisamonster]

You are a philistine, Captain.

[ship_ping]

That's hilarious coming out of your mouth.

[thatboyisamonster]

How so?
