[ There is a sudden and alarming amount of flailing going on as one sandy-furred tribble suddenly turns into one sand-haired (and very naked) Captain James Tiberius Kirk. He flails for a moment, brain working out the fact that he was no longer a ball and now had four limbs and tubular body. In fact, it was taking its time figuring out the fact it now had a lot of things tribbles did not have.

He sat on the floor, bleary for a minute, letting himself get used to the idea of being more than a few inches off the ground. Getting to his feet is another matter for his brain to work out, involving a lot of wobbling, but he eventually gets it. And he's happy about that. Having vague memories of being a living hairball aren't as pleasant or exciting as one might think, though thankfully no one had outright abused his poor little furball self. Most had been nice. He distinctly remembered a lot of petting. And eating.

Speaking of eating.... he was hungry. Like, really hungry.

Still naked, he located his little journal and flipped it open, also suddenly aware that he had been gone... awhile. Yeah, awhile. ]

So, who wants to treat me to a welcome back steak dinner? With a fully loaded bake potato on the side?

[ He'll worry about the need for clothing later. Sorry anyone else in the house. ]

I would apologise, but it was out of my control, Ashaya.

[The Vulcan welcomes the hug, leaning into Jim's embrace... but his eyes wander over to the now broken cage where his tribble was...]

Were you...?

_{[ Kirk looks back to the cage and he shrugs. ]}

Yeah, probably. Weirder things have happened, right?

_{[ He looks down at his belly and places a hand there, frowning. ]}

I really hope I wasn't pregnant when I was a tribble...

Not as far as I am aware, though you were passed around quite a fair amount. Miss Torres refused to allow you into the house while she was here.

You had the most curious reaction to her, though I am lead to believe all tribbles react that way to Klingons.

And what reaction was that?

_{[ He raised his eyebrows at his boyfriend, amused and curious - and
still naked, though that didn't necessarily bother him. ]}

[Spock sighs, and grabs a nearby blanket, tying it around Jim's waist.]

The reaction was not at all pleasant. You screamed at her until I had to physically remove you.

Really? We're not best friends, but I didn't think I disliked her that much.

_{[ He smirked as Spock tied the blanket around his waist, honestly
amused it had taken the other man that long to attempt to cover him.}

He looked back to Spock and reached up, cupping the sharply angular face gently, softening as he looked at him, felt the sweet hum of their bond between them. He had missed it, when he thought about it, missed it being so close and near tangible.

Kirk leaned up, pressing a kiss to Spock's mouth gently, fingers cupping the back of his neck. ]

Long time no see.

[Spock finally fell into the embrace, hugging Jim tightly, and voicing his worries.]

I thought I had lost you again.

Naw, I'm not that easy to get rid of, you know that.

_{[ He smiled, giving him a softer kiss this time and a squeeze, not
moving away from him. ]}

I was worried about you too, before I got snatched up.

My apologies Ashaya, I did not mean to leave you. Though I believe you would have appreciated the sustaining Malnosso affect far more than I did.

[Spock leads them over to the kitchen, where he makes Jim sit down and starts searching around for bowls. He was going to make them pancakes... and bacon for Jim.]

Oh? What happened to you?

_{[ He sat, not bothered by the fact he was only wearing a blanket in
the kitchen. Jim's shame level was notoriously low and now was no different
in the presence of his lover. ]}

I became addicted to video games.

[Blunt answer is blunt.]

_{[ There's a pause, and then he began to laugh, not even bothering to
hide behind his hand as he did so. ]}

Oh man, I really did miss a fun time, didn't I? I think the Malnosso plan this stuff on purpose.

I have no doubt that they do.

[Spock huffs a bit as he continues making his way around the kitchen.... He sneaks glances at Jim though.]

Other than being hungry, you are not hurt in any way, are you?
[Because he was actually really worried about you...]
