Only if that's what you're into. You seemed like you could use some cheering up today.

[universaltranslator]

What makes you say that?

[justamessenger]

I'm good at guessing these things.

[She upturns about three packets of sugar into her coffee and stirs.]

It worked, right?

[universaltranslator]

[It did, actually. She'd woken up that morning feeling under the weather and missing Spock. The past ten minutes have been the first time this entire day she hasn't thought about him.]

You've got quite the gift.

[justamessenger]

[She holds out a hand.]

I'm Dulcie.

[universaltranslator]

[Uhura shakes her head.]

Nyota. It's nice to meet you, Dulcie.

[justamessenger]

You too. I could go with 'come here often?' if you like the classics or I could work in something about you falling from heaven if you think that'll work better.

[universaltranslator]

Let's just skip the pickup lines. They don't sound any better sober.

[justamessenger]

Oh well it was worth a shot.

[Chekov has decided to send Uhura a message before she starts looking for him... under the assumption, of course, that she'll be less annoyed if she finds out that he's in the hospital from him.]

Nyota? I'm in the hospital, currently, but I will be home later today.

What?!

[candothat]

It's nothing! They were going to call you, I thought I would call you first.

» audio, May 5th (Sunday morning)

[universaltranslator]

What happened? Are you all right?

» audio, May 5th (Sunday morning)

[candothat]

There was an incident, I'm fine.

[Totally fine, ergo hospital. Hopefully that's enough detail; Chekov is a terrible liar and doesn't really want to give Uhura more reasons to hate Korra.]

» audio, May 5th (Sunday morning)

[universaltranslator]

An incident. [She can read between the lines, Chekov.] With Korra?

» audio, May 5th (Sunday morning)

[candothat]

[Nooo, why. His expression is a very clear yes.]

No! ...Yes, but it wasn't her fault.

» audio, May 5th (Sunday morning)

[universaltranslator]

[Not her fault? Yeah. Right.]

We'll talk about this when you're out of the hospital. What time are they releasing you?

[She'll be over to pick him up.]

» audio, May 5th (Sunday morning)

[candothat]

Soon, but Nyota, please believe me? Korra didn't do anything wrong.

» audio, May 5th (Sunday morning)

[universaltranslator]

This is the third time you've been in the hospital, and every time, she's been involved.

» audio, May 5th (Sunday morning)

[candothat]

Fourth, and she had nothing to do with the first.

[Oh. Uhura wasn't in the City then, was she? He isn't helping his case in the least.]

Nyota, I would have died without Korra, maybe more than once.

[twitch. twitch.]

We'll talk about this when you get home.

[She's not convinced.]

[ not a business call, so he's as informal as ever. ]

Got time to spare today, darlin'?

audio » july 5th, noon-ish

[universaltranslator]

Of course, Doctor. What do you need?

audio » july 5th, noon-ish

[medicos]

Spock is here. He's with Jim and I.

audio » july 5th, noon-ish

[universaltranslator]

[CLACK!!!!! The device clatters to the ground in her shock. It's one thing to be told that Spock is fine and he survived the volcano, but it's another thing for him to be here.

She fumbles to pick it back up.]

Where are you?
