As Pavel and Pavlusha swapped she noticed his smile first and then she noticed the Captain's arm second.
"Я вижу, у вас свидание с капитаном," Pavlusha smiled. (I see you have a date with the Captain.)
"Da. Он попросил меня научить его, как это сделать краба изгиб," Pavel answered. (He asked me to teach him how to do a crab bend.)
As Pavlusha was leaving she heard her name called by Spock, "Ensign Pavlusha, Я вернусь компакт позже, если это нормально." (I will return your cd later if that is okay.)
"Da, zat vill be fine. Я буду в в тысячу восемьсот," Pavlusha replied. (I will be in at eighteen hundred.)


At eighteen hundred Spock walked to Pavlusha's door and knocked. He could just walk in but he didn't like to incase she wasn't dressed or ready.
"Come in."
Spock keyed in the code and entered. He looked around and couldn't locate Pavlusha. She laughed at the confused Vulcan which gave her location away. She was sat on top of the wardrobe.
"May I enquire why you are up there and how you got there?" Spock asked.
"You may. I am here because I vas bored, and I got here by climbing. Join me, you hawe to climb onto top bunk, zen put your right foot onto top shelf and your left knee onto top of cupboard. Zen turn and you're sat," Pavlusha explained.
"I think I will stay here. I'm not sure what Doctor McCoy would say if I was to end up in sickbay if I fell," Spock decided.
"But rest assured it vouldn't stay in sickbay," Pavlusha giggled, jumping down.
"Yes. And Captain Kirk would never stop talking about it."
"I beliewe phrase required is vould newer let you liwe it down."
"Thank you. Your cd." He passed her the disc in the case.
"Vould you like to borrow anozer? I hawe two more by him, zree by Olly Murs and two by Michael Buble."
"Yes please. I will have one by the man who was on yesterday."
"Michael Buble. I vill let you borrow one zat vas on yesterday. Did you like Mika one?" She placed the one in her hand back in the rack and withdrew another. To Be Loved.
"It was unusual," Spock answered, "But good."
"Ah yes he is unusual man," Pavlusha smiled, then pulled another cd out, The Boy Who Knew Too Much, "Here take zis one too. It's by Mika." She then put a cd into the player and climbed back onto the top of the wardrobe. Spock couldn't help admiring her agility. The new cd was the first Olly Murs cd, the song Change is Gonna Come.
"You sure you're not gonna join me?" She called down.
"While it is illogical to sit on cupboards it is also illogical to not join you in your own home. I shall join you," Spock stated removing his shoes to join her. He had just got his left knee onto the top as his right foot slipped. Pavlusha managed to grab his hands to steady him before he fell.
"Almost trip to McCoy," she smiled.
"I told you sitting on cupboards was illogical."
"Yes but it's comfortable."
"May I enquire why finding the smallest space in the room and then sitting in it is comfortable?"
"I like small spaces," Pavlusha replied, "Plus it's fun vhen you get wisitors. One moment," she manouvered herself to grab her padd from the shelf below her, "I'll call Pav over he should hawe finished viz ze Captain now."
The message she sent read, "Hey Pav. Come over here. Bring Captain too. Love Lush"


At eighteen hundred Kirk had walked to the door of Pavel's quarters and keyed in the code. When he entered he was surprised to see that Pavel was already in a crab bend and was looking at him upside down.
"Velcome," Pavel smiled before getting up, "You vant to know crab bend."
"Yeah," Kirk answered although it wasn't really a question.
"Okay. Lay on floor."
Kirk did as instructed. Pavel stood over him and pushed his arms to the correct position. He moved and bent Kirk's knees up. Then he laid down next to Kirk in the same position. "I count zree and zen push viz hands and feet, da."
"Da."
"Один, два, три." Kirk guessed that had been the count and pushed. He found that it wasn't difficult and they both stayed like that around ten minutes before Pavel received a message on his padd. Pavel stayed in the crab, grabbed the padd upside down and read it.
"Jim," he called, Kirk had got out of the crab and was sat on the floor now, "Pavlusha has inwited us ower."
"Well I guess you ought to be going, I'll head back to my quarters," Kirk responded getting up.
"No. She asked you come too. Listen," Pavel read out the message, "Hey Pav. Come over here. Bring Captain too. Love Lush."
"Okay then. I guess we ought to be going," Kirk replied.


They walked together down the corridor to Pavlusha's room. Pavel knocked.
"KCOPS." Was the call from inside.
"I guess that's the code," Kirk assumed tapping it in.
Pavel knew what his sister was like and looked straight to the cupboard. She put a finger to her lips to signal him to be quiet. He hadn't expected Spock to be sat there. Kirk still couldn't locate her.
"Why'd she invite us over if she's not in?" Kirk asked.
"She's here Jim, you just don't know vhere to look," Pavel replied pointing his eyes to the ceiling discreetly enough for Pavlusha not to see but obvious enough for the Captain.
Kirk looked up. Pavlusha and Spock were still sat atop the cupboard. "Evening Captain," they said.
"Evening. Spock, surely it's illogical to sit on top of a cupboard."
"It is," Spock replied, "But even more illogical to not sit when the host asks you to."
Pavlusha shifted to the edge of the cupboard and motioned Spock to move up as well. "Here come sit viz us," she smiled, "You hawe to climb onto top bunk, zen put your right foot onto top shelf and your left knee onto top of cupboard. Zen turn and you're sat."
"I would recommend doing it bare foot," Spock added causing Pavlusha to laugh at the memory of him falling.
Whilst being apprehensive at fist Kirk joined them followed by Pavel.
"This is actually quite comfortable," Kirk declared.
They stayed there for about an hour just talking until a crewmember knocked on the door.
