"Pass me your stick, Commander."

Did she just say...?

No, way.

Chakotay smacked himself mentally, dismissing the thoughts.

She couldn't mean it that way.

Could she?

You'd think she could... waggle her eyebrows or something.

Or something.

Hmm, he liked the sound of that.

'Or something.' had much potential. Yes, he definitely liked the sound
of that one. It could mean...

His animal guide scrambled out from his subconscious and took its turn
to slap him.

Wow, that thing had a hand. Or paw... whatever.

But it had a point. She was his Commanding Officer, his superior.

She wasn't up until a couple months ago, though. Darn.

If they'd chosen a Maquis crew, THEN she could waggle her eyebrows. He
wouldn't be under her command anymore.

But he DID like the sound of that.

'Oh, holy protons. Just hand her the stick.' his guide told him, eyes
shooting daggers at his cerebral cortex before scampering back into
the subconscious.

"It's called a cue." Chakotay said smoothly, vowing to have a talk
with that thing in his head when he got the chance.
