Prompt: Kirk, Scotty - April Fool's Day pranks
April Fools
"Now, gentlemen," came Spock's voice over the intercom, sufficiently distracting both Jim and Scotty from their mutual threats of extreme bodily harm. "I will have Lieutenant Cordry unlock the rec room door and Ensign Chekov beam back your clothing once you have come to some sort of cease-fire regarding this..."
Spock's voice trailed off and Jim had no doubt he was consulting Uhura regarding the appropriate human term for the shenanigans that he and Scotty had been up to these last several hours.
"... 'prank war.' Furthermore, I will insist that your both offer an apology to both Lieutenant Sulu and Doctor McCoy as it is my understanding they will be spending the next three days with their skin dyed purple until the substance you've attacked them with wears off."
Jim and Scotty looked at each other in consternation before launching back into their previous argument regarding who should accept the blame for their current situation.
"I would also suggest that you both log in several hours in the phaser range to improve your accuracy for future engagements, as I am told you were aiming for each other. Spock out."
