It wasn't until it was totally covered in paint that Kirk noticed Pavlusha had a ribbon tied around her wrist.
"Lush," He called, "What colour's your ribbon?"
"Currently mixture of red, yellow, green and blue," She smiled, "But originally it vas silwer."
"Wait! That's what colour," He stops there, "Oh my gosh. And all of the other ribbons have come true."
"Vhat so you and Pav?" Pavlusha asked.
"Well almost all then, I think it's only us four that haven't gotten together yet," Kirk confessed.
"May I enquire as to what this discussion is about?" Spock enquired.
"Ribbons," Kirk replied, then in a sing-song voice, "I know a certain couple of people who have matching ribbons and don't know."
"Oh I thought all of the couples had been united," Spock stated, as he moved his right hand to a blue dot.
"How could you think that when you've got a ribbon and not a partner?" Kirk smirked, "However I know who has the other silver ribbon."
Pavlusha wasn't going to wait for it to be revealed by Kirk, Spock was going to find out today anyway, so it may as well come from her, "I hawe it," She announced.
"Fascinating," Spock mused.
"What is?" Kirk and Pavlusha asked simultaneously.
"That is what I had thought," Spock added.
"One moment. You thought that Pavlusha had the other silver ribbon?" Kirk declared, so surprised he fell and knocked them over again.
"Affirmative Jim. I worked it out since she always kept her right wrist covered when we were together," Spock explained, "Also that she seems to be the female I spend most time with."
"Vell I guess ve may hawe to spend more time togezer zen," Pavlusha smiled to Spock, "And you can spend time viz Pav," She told Kirk.
