dammitmccoy:#exhibits a b & c of bones’s tendency to revert to sass and big talk as a coping mechanism / to distract from his own TOTAL FUCKING INSANITY#exhibit a: just hid in the bathroom as a 28-year-old licensed doctor and pitched a fit at the woman who had to smoke him out#plus he’s only on this shuttle in the first place because he had a bad divorce#and decided his only remaining option was to leave the fucking planet#you know what other people going through difficult break-ups do? move to a new city. hit the gym. take up yoga. get a regrettable haircut.#leonard goes ‘GUESS I’LL DIE’ and signs himself up for a career he is 100% confident will murder him in one horrifying alien way or another#and then has the nerve to snap back at jim for trying to ease his fears over this situation he is 100% responsible for placing himself into#exhibit b: poisoned a man and smuggled him onboard a military spacecraft headed into what appears to be a very serious emergency#did the man ask him to do any such thing? no. does he himself have the standing on said spacecraft to get away with this? also no.#he does it because he’s scared and hopelessly dependent on his one (1) friend and dammit he needs his emotional support maniac with him#but being questioned on any aspect of this “’'plan”“ reminds him that he has zero justification for it. so…night night jim.#exhibit c: literally just fucked around experimenting on a corpse until it started breathing again#‘you were barely dead’ he says to downplay the fact that dead is dead no matter how many qualifiers you add to it#jesus of nazareth was barely dead but if memory serves i seem to recall THAT was still a pretty big deal#i mean okay he didn’t dig jim’s body up out of his grave or anything but dude was d-e-a-d DEAD#which means dude is now a ZOMBIE#but my man would prefer not to think of himself as a necromancer so instead he chastises jim for making such a big deal of it#and this my friends is why the bridge scene in chapter 8 of palimpsest plays out the way it does#enterprise crew: what the fuck.#leonard h mccoy; champion blame-shifter: look i don’t know why you’re all making such a big stinking deal of this.#enterprise crew: ……..what the FUCK.#bless his heart#his crazy crazy heart#otp: bedside manner#mccoy#kirk#star trek#aos#q (more sheer perfection from @fireinmywoods ) -- source link
