((Medical Area, Runabout USS Aceso))
::The new appointed science officer was trying to peacely be acquainted with the good doctor, but things seemed to spiral out of control as usual. That two officers were like sulfuric acid and water. It was very hard to say which of them was which, but the fact was that if you did not mix these two little guys in a proper order, and the exact concentration, the most likely outcome would be a violent exothermic burning and splashing reaction. In other others - Fight!! Or at least, another broken nose. ::
Pond: Mister Lambert. ::looking at him pervasively:: Do you really want to pick things up where we left it?
Lambert: What do you mean? ::quizzical look::
Pond: Look. ::sighing:: Randal and I worked very hard to make it work. And we won’t let this minor… Bump in the road destroy everything. So do whatever you must, just don’t get in the way of that.
::So, here it comes, the acid. The concentration was very high and Lambert was completely unprepared for that. But that was the last piece of the puzzle. She was really, really not sure about her relationship’s future with the goofball. Lambert would have to portray water this time, and be receptive and abundant to avoid another conflict. Latex gloves would be a wise touch.::
Lambert: ::raising both palms in the air:: Hey, ma’am! ::smiling:: I´m not your enemy nor I´m trying to take advantage of the situation. oO I´m not sure of that yet Oo ::lowering his hands and walking forward:: Are you still mad with that kiss?
Pond: As long as I am wearing this uniform and I still have a half-pip more than you, it is Sir or Doctor to you. And as I see it, that „kiss“ you obviously like to think about a lot was nothing more than a rather unfortunate contact of body parts.
::The Acid started to pour down in the water and the reaction begun, but Lambert was getting angry fast with that unnecessary show of power. The science officer’s hope was that he could hold the amount of heat, generated in the acid-water reaction, without blow everything out of this galaxy.::
Lambert: Despite what you may think, and the injure you caused on my nose, I did not kiss you intentionally. ::he lowered his eyes down and scratched his nape:: Huh… despite my desires to do so… ::staring again at her with confidence:: but I didn't… it was an accident.
Pond: ::unwilling to discuss that further:: I think my feelings are quite clear.
Lambert: If you allow me to be frank… ::he moved aside and whispered at the left ear:: You act as you love me and are afraid do not resist my charm… ::moving back:: but I guarantee you that I only intend to be friend. The past is in the past. oO I hope I will not regret for saying that.Oo
::But before an answer to that move could be heard, an officer arriving from the cockpit section interrupted what could be another exothermic and unpredictable Trill reaction.::
Raga: Doctor. Lieutenant.
Pond: ::dangerously calm:: Lieutenant Junior Grade Lambert. If you ever whisper something in my ear again, I will file a formal complaint that might very well ruin whatever career options you have. ::dramatic pause:: And considering that other thing, if you prove that you actually can be a woman’s friend, I will consider that.
::The Trill turned around and continued her work completely ignoring Lambert.::
Lambert: Oh! ::he turned his head around looking for someone who head just heard that:: oO Was this a Trill’s menace? Oo Cool!!! ::he smiled for quite some time::
::It was the proper time to cool down away. As Lambert had finished his business there, and the threatening Trill was not demanding anything else, he decided to go make friends somewhere else. The cockpit seemed to be the best choice.::
PS: I guess my next sim would be on Atlantis. It would nice to meet new friends without the acid nature of Isabel. LOL
