You're very kind. And you DID convey that brilliantly. I think SB just didn't know the Vulcan words and it tripped him up. Me, I use Vulcan all the time for fics so I knew Lorian meant mother.

Go on SB my botox was today so I'm taking the day off. Tomorrow I'll be in tip top shape.

Glad to hear that. You could use a little luck. Feeling in tip top shape helps.

I can sing all three acts of Oklahoma today, and tomorrow will be better. Still trying to decide who to make my next drabble about though. So many choices.

If this works.

Who is the caller, who is called?

SB


“Incoming private call for you.”

I will take in my quarters.”

“I am calling to say I did what I had to do.”

“You did it for yourself, no one else.

“You are wrong. You should know that. You were there.”

“I know that you did not consider anyone else or what they may have wanted”

You do not understand. You will know later why I did it.”

“Later? Why later? I know all I need to now”

“You only know part of it. You cannot know what was in my mind at the time.”

I know enough”

“Call Terminated.”

It's too generic, SB. Revise it and give us a clue or two. There's no way we can guess. It could be a conversation between any two characters about any situation when one person did something the other disapproved of and both of them were present. IMO, it's a waste of time and effort to attempt a guess based on so little information.

It's intriguing. Given the hints of familiarity and hostility between the people involved I'm suspecting that Harris or Masaro may have been involved. My guess is Harris calling Reed about the Phlox kidnapping in Affliction. But knowing my luck with SB I'm sure it will turn out to be something completely different...

Okay I'll guess... :tpol: is calling :trip: when he went back to Enterprise after her wedding. He's mad, and she's upset. But since SB hates Home he's living out his fantasy of :trip: telling :tpol: off in a drabble.

Ah yes, that does make sense too. But who knows SB's mind well enough to guess which is more likely? Not me, that's for sure.

:dunno: Granted the drabble on it's own isn't enough to be certain. But when you've heared someone's opinion on a certain event in the show, it can leave somes clues in challenges such as this.

Okay, in deference to distracted. WG is very close. It is T'Les calling Trip (before she leaves for the Forge) to say that she helped Koss because she thought it was the right thing. Trip says that she only did it for herself (Leaving T'Pol safely married to a vulcan would satisfy T'Les and ease her concious over forcing T'Pol in to a marriage. t'Les tells Trip he will understand later (after he discovers she has gone tothe Forge so she wants T'Pol to be safe as she sees it because T'Les may not return from the Forge.

So, Wg is up next
