[Anyone who happens to access this log will be treated to a few minutes of drunken Scottish pub songs before the rest of the message plays.]

Oh...

S'this thing on, then?

Er. Ah. Disre... disa... pretend you didn't hear that.

... [Laughs] Oh Monty, what are we going to do with you.

[reversedpolarity]

You're goin' tae keep me around because I'm entertainin'...?

[elizabethdehner.livejournal.com]

I'm assuming the, uh, drinking went well, then? [giggling]

[reversedpolarity]

[There's a long, embarrassed silence.]

'Liz'beth! Uh.

[More silence.]

Er. Yeah. Um. So you heard that, then?

[elizabethdehner.livejournal.com]

[stifling a laugh]

You sounded like you were having too much fun to ignore it, sir. I'm jealous of your bottle of scotch.

[reversedpolarity]

[A few more moments of silence.]

F'you liked it, I could sing more.

[elizabethdehner.livejournal.com]

[laughing]

I would like nothing more, Mr. Scott.

[mumbles]

I should not be encouraging this.

[reversedpolarity]

[Have some more pub songs. Be forewarned, however, that some of them may be slightly inappropriate, as are most pub songs, being that they're thought up and composed while drunk, a time during which innuendo is the highest form of humor.]

[applauds Scotty's drunken performance]

I do believe you've just made my life complete. Perhaps you should sleep it off, though?

[reversedpolarity]

[Cue indignant sputtering.]

Lass, I've only jus' begun! Still got... two... one...? No, no, s'two. Two glasses in this bottle, at least.

[elizabethdehner.livejournal.com]

[laughs]

You better drink 'em quick! Before anyone else can get to it!

[reversedpolarity]

Lass, tha'... s'illogical. No one here but me'n the scotch.

[elizabethdehner.livejournal.com]

Drinking alone, sounds... entertaining. I should be scolding you for doing this to yourself as it isn't good for your mental health, but I like you too much to turn on my doctor voice.

Lass. I may no' be a doctor. But. But.

[At first, the reply is hard to hear, as though he's far away from the speaker.]

Stupid, stupid, stupid!

[He seems to have been shocked into some semblance of sobriety; at least, he's not slurring anymore.]

Idiot! Stupid...

[It's possible he's forgotten he's on a speaker...]

[elizabethdehner.livejournal.com]

Uh, Scotty?

Maybe I should go...

[reversedpolarity]

[His reply is less a reply and more a sort of pathetic 'meep' kind of sound.]

[elizabethdehner.livejournal.com]

I'm gonna go...

[makes awkward I-have-nothing-else-to-fill-the-silence-with sound]

Sleep well Mr. Scott.

crap

[reversedpolarity]

[Scotty's reply might be 'Have a good night', or it might be 'Grab a wood flight'. It's kind of hard to tell.]

[fenceforflowers.livejournal.com]

Very nice taste in music, Mr. Scott.

[reversedpolarity]

There's more where it came from, lad!

[fenceforflowers.livejournal.com]

I'd be interested in hearing more of it. Maybe sometime we can swap music?

[reversedpolarity]

You bet your arse, Mister Sulu!

[fenceforflowers.livejournal.com]

We don't have to get drunk ahead of time, do we?

[reversedpolarity]

Not drinkin' ahead o' time takes half the fun outta it!

[fenceforflowers.livejournal.com]

Alright, alright. I'll do a few shots if it'll make you happy.

[reversedpolarity]

Tha's the spirit!

[A pause, and a snort of laughter.]

Get it? Spirit? Spirits?

[fenceforflowers.livejournal.com]

That's... [Lets out a slightly nervous laughter out of pity.] ... that's pretty clever.

[reversedpolarity]

Yeah, I thought so too.

[fenceforflowers.livejournal.com]

Well, you keep knocking 'em dead, sir. I think I'm going to go get some rest myself. Enjoy your evening.

[reversedpolarity]

Knockin' 'em dead, or knockin' 'em back?

[Another snicker. He's clever, this one.]

'Night, Mister Sulu.
