"Oww" Captain James T. Kirk groaned slowly blinking the room into focus clutching his abused skull he attempted to stand.

Apparently his legs had other plans for him, as he tumbled to the ground at an alarming rate.

That is until he came into contact with something relatively soft an clothed in Starfleet issue blue uniform. The objects only reaction was a sharp exhalation of breath.

"Captain it is advisable that you refrain form becoming vertical at this time."

"Spock? What? Where… am I"

"It is alright Captain you are in your quarters the Doctor will be in to check on you shortly" Spock soothed his face lacking the rigidity of impassiveness, soft eyes taking in the form of his disgruntled Captain.

"I do apologize, Captain it was unfortunate that the Doctor chose to indulge in such irrational behavior." Spock said while aiding the Captain in returning to his bed.

"What irrational behavior Mr. Spock?"

"Doctor McCoy in his temporary laps of self control due to my inquiry launched his tricorder at a rather surprising velocity in an attempt to display his disapproval caused solely by my interjection."

"You mean Bones got Pissey tried to deck you with a tricorder and hit me instead?"

"Well that was not his intention I assure you. His aim was quite remarkable for a person of his field." Spock then shifted uncomfortably glancing at the large goose egg the Captain had acquired.

"Then what the hell happened Spock?!" Kirk shouted in frustration while clutching his abused skull.

Spock was silent for what could have only been a few milliseconds and said in an oddly sheepish voice.

"I dodged it … Sir"
