Some days he gets where Spock's coming from with all that meditation shit. At the very least, McCoy certainly seems to be employing breathing exercises, his hand pinching the bridge of his nose.

"That's quite the sentiment." It feels like there's a lingering but in there somewhere, and after a moment or two it arrives in a pained, weary tone. "And this 'something nice' had to be done in the middle of sickbay why, exactly..?"

Kyle only thought of fair fights as a way to end up dead. Growing in an environment like what he was used to you had to take the shot when you could get it. He was honestly only startled. He didn’t realize someone else was going to be here. At least no one like her. She towered over him. He’d seen people bigger than him sure. Taller and with more too them. But having to look up the way he was, felt a little new.

He had reacted purely on instinct, seeing her as close as she was. Kyle didn’t move or blink at the clear warning in her tone. A threat? Probably. Judging by her reaction. The way she was looking at him? Of course she was going to be considered a threat. She didn’t even really react to a weapon being pointed at her. He didn’t lower his weapon when he was informed that she didn’t mean him any harm. Only moving his finger off the trigger. He was clearly still a little on edge. He might be considered a little jumpy.

“What are you doing here?” He still kept a bit of distance between them in case that changed.

Hicks hadn’t thought he would have received the joke when he asked his question. But he didn’t think he would have really gotten any kind of answer aside from what the hell do you want. He still kind of got that question. Just a bit nicer than that. Hicks leaned back, they really seemed to be having a good time. He couldn’t help the grin on his face.

Couldn’t keep that up for ever apparently. They had to go back to business sooner or later. Guess sooner for the moment. “Yeah. I can see that.” He was still grinning though. At least they could be allowed to have a little fun before having to get back to whatever this is.

Right. OF course why was he here. That was going to be a question. “Back to business of course. I’m here because I need a little bit of help.” Didn’t have many other options anymore and he was sure this was a long shot. But couldn’t hurt to try.
