( open ) everyone knows what has got me

WHO: James T. Kirk & YOU!
WHERE: Bajikan
WHEN: March 8th onwards
WHAT: Jim's exploring some areas of the planet, and keeping a safe distance from others.
WARNINGS: Violence, drinking, possible light drug use??? And nudity in one thread.

Falling onto a planet's orbit felt like a stroke of good luck, at last. Granted, a lot of things could still go wrong, but finally there was a chance that they might work out the power issues currently plaguing the entire fleet, and that, along with the opportunity to get his feet back down on solid ground, had Jim feeling a little optimistic.

And after that long being trapped in his ship with only auxiliary power working, he was exhausted and definitely ready for some down time.

Still, there was only so much he'd be willing to relax. While the Eluvio got a team together to try and acquire whatever supplies they needed, Jim chose to stay out of it this time. He'd keep his eyes and ears peeled in case of trouble, but honestly after the mess in Oros, he didn't want any part in it this time around. So he did exactly what a Starfleet officer would do on a brand new planet, and got ready to explore and gather information about Bajikan, so he could learn and —hopefully— take with him as much as he could about how the place worked.

It was a strange set-up, he'd give it that. He eyed the tokens curiously as he took in all the information about each of the different districts, and soon decided on his course of action.

First of all, Luxuria was out of the question, not without him being sure of how strong the effects could be on him. Though not averse to intimacy, he wasn't about to risk getting involved with anyone without consent being a crystal clear thing between all parties involved, and as much as he'd like to at least catch a glimpse of that district, he scratched it off the list with little hesitance.

As for the rest, though... well, he could be easily found in some of them, often times strolling around and taking notes, but engaging in different activities depending on the district.

While in Gula, he could be easily found at one of the many restaurants and food stands, stuffing his face with all the dishes on offer, or at various bars, going through their endless list of drinks and cocktails. At least he was a funny drunk these days, so it might be entertaining to stick around for it.

Avaritia offered a strange feeling he wasn't really used to, the feeling of desperately wanting to own things. And he indulged quite a lot there, with both the savings on his account and the nice deposit he received thanks to one special plant. He'd be at different clothing stores with piles on piles of clothes he was trying on, or the odd bookstore here or there, stacking up books he was definitely intent on buying. Yes, all of them.

He wasn't very sure about Ira, but eventually decided to risk it, if only to try and see if he could find some different weapons there. The effects of the air in the district took their toll on him quickly enough, so at one point or another he could be found around one of those arena fights, eyeing the place and possibly considering joining in, or he might even get a little aggressive when simply bumping into someone on the street. Either way, throwing some punches around might become a very real possibility.

Lastly, Superbia seemed fairly harmless, so Jim saw no problem with taking a look. Not at all to his surprise, the whole place was catered to people wanting to better themselves in a myriad of different ways, and strangely enough he liked the thought of that. He may be found at some spa or another, enjoying a weird beauty treatment, or maybe even deciding that yes, now was the perfect time to learn proper ballroom dancing, to such a level that it would shock people with how good he was. And damn if he wasn't good at it. (Strangely enough, he'd realize later on that this was the district where he felt the least different from himself. Go figure.)

"Anytime," Jim smiled at Bones. He wasn't sure how much help he'd be when picking jewelry— not like he'd ever really bought something like that for anyone, after all, but he'd do his best. Shouldn't be that hard to look at the options and say which ones he found prettier, anyway. And hopefully it wouldn't take that long either, because... well, he didn't really know how that place would affect him while Bones was near him, and he wasn't sure he wanted to find out.

The island didn't look like much from the outside, just a large bulky rock with bits of greenery on top, but it was still quite the sight. But Jim knew that once they got into the island's caves, the hidden little nooks would amaze Bones even more.

"I think that if there are humans here that look and behave even remotely like us, then they must have come from a place not all that different from the Earth we know. Possibly even an alternate version of Earth. So the ancient history might not vary all that much. Either that, or this is just some kind of cultural appropriation after so many people coming in through the anomalies. God knows how long they've been around, and how far wide they spread across this reality."

Keeping his eyes on the mountainous figure of the island rising out of the water. The entire thing was picturesque like a painting of some spot in paradise. Not that he figured you could do much on a giant hunk of rock, but it sure looked pretty. He just hoped Jim hadn't set his mind on rock climbin' or somthin'.

Glancing back at Jim, one corner of his lips rose at that. Leonard like when Jim talked like that. Reasoned things out and sounded philosophical. "Yeah, you gotta point there." Which was half the reason he pushed him to explain. It was just one more side to his multifaceted personality.

"So where exactly are we headin', Captain?" He sent the other man a smile, one brow arched just a bit in question.

It didn't take a genius to think about it like that, and considering the things the two of them had been through, then all the likelier for either of them to think of things that way. Regardless, most people here had been around long enough that even if they hadn't thought about things that way, they probably wouldn't be too surprised to hear that point of view coming from someone else.

But until they were allowed to actually take a look at all of the Eluvio's systems and every bit of information they could want, theories is all they were. Not like Jim could confirm any of it, not at this point anyway.

"Into the island," Jim nodded ahead as they approached a cave. "There." Yes, he literally meant into the island. At least he slowed down considerably as they got closer to the cave, so Bones had no reason to panic and worry about crashing into the walls as they went further inside.

His eyes shifted to the cave and both brows went up nearly into his hair line. He wanted to ask why this was a good idea, but he bit his tongue. "You've already scouted it out?" Leonard would give Jim the benefit of the doubt and assume Jim knew what was going on.

Tracing over the features of the cave, he finally looked back at Jim. The doctor made sure not to have any negative emotion in his face and managed to only look curious. "Does anybody live there?"

Even when Bones was trying not to sound too pessimistic, it still bled clearly into his quiet and cautious tone, the specific words he chose. Jim just smiled and huffed out a chuckle, though, shaking his head a little as he looked at the doctor.

"Yeah, I spent a few good hours studying the place. No one else around, trust me. Not unless someone thought of exploring it like I did," he paused then, gaze a little more serious as he caught Bones's eyes. "It's fine, I told you. Perfectly safe."

And the caves weren't that small, either. Seemed like just a path of tunnels through which they floated along the calm water, not even the tiniest of waves rocking the boat. While the sun didn't reach them, the light seemed to somehow reflect through the rocks, making it almost look like the water itself was shining brightly.

And Jim clearly had a path in mind, as he navigated through the tunnels like he was set on a specific destination.

"So you know how it is in high tide and low? Or do they even have a tide here?" In the city he'd not even paid much attention to whether or not this world had a moon. But the water had to have movement. Well, assumin' the creatures livin' in it needed oxygen of course. It was just a thought even if he knew he was still being a worrier.

Something that made him bite his lip. And when Jim insisted it was safe, all he did was nod. "I trust you." And he did. He always did. Even if he partially regretted something, he never completely regretted it. Not to a point he'd take any moment in the past back. He'd do it all again. Yeah, he must like torturing himself.

And well... the caves were damn pretty with the water lookin' like sparkling glass.

Finally sinking back down into his seat, he decided just to let it go and see where it went. No point in gettin' worked up and he did actually trust Jim. That statement had never been a lie.

Yep, Bones was doing it again, that thing where he overthought everything and worried about too much, and a lot more than he needed to. Jim laughed it off at first, then raised his eyebrows at the doctor. "My God, Bones! Okay, it was cute at first, but I'm not satisfying your paranoid streak anymore. It's fine, we're safe. This isn't some crazy mission with dangers lurking on every corner. It's time off, and I want to enjoy it with you."

And honestly, right now he'd do just about anything to shut him up, which may or may not give him all kinds of terrible ideas. So really, just shut up Bones.

Knowing just where he wanted to go to first, Jim steered the boat carefully through the tunnels, some wider and larger, others a hint narrower but still with plenty of room for them. A few hidden pools and nooks could be seen along the way, but Jim didn't stop on any of them, and eventually the tunnel opened up into a wider cavern of sorts, except the ceiling had a large opening through which sunlight filtered through and reflected on the crystalline waters, so clear that they could see the bottom of the pool. There were some smaller rocks along the edges of the pool, and small plants and flowers growing along the walls of the cave.

He stole a glance at Bones, though quietly, curious to see his reaction.

This time he shot Jim a glare. Of all his history of complaining, that wasn't even the worst he'd done. The tone really hadn't even inflected much more than curiosity. Even if he was worried about that detail, that sort of berating felt like sand paper against his skin. The doctor wanted to even point that out, but he knew there would be no point.

So he shut up like a kid that had been scolded and glared at nothing in particular as long as it was no where near the direction of Jim. Jaw tightened, he pressed his lips in a thin line to keep his reactions under wraps for the most part. It took a while for him to even see past that irritated anger enough to even see his surroundings.

He had to admit, it was damn pretty. Like a pocket of paradise hidden away from the rest of the world. And it might've taken a moment, but some of the lines of tension started to ease up in his shoulders and jaw. Not that he said anything. He still wasn't to that point of bothering to talk to Jim after that, but he did look less pissed off and more intrigued as his head turned to catch details here and there.

Suddenly he moved, rising up in his seat to lean over the edge and slip one set of fingers into the water to skim the surface as they moved. He felt cool for the most part. Not bad to swim in, but could be a little cold at first. It struck him that he didn't remember to pack a bathing suit regardless. Shame... that clear water looked perfect for swimming.

Granted, Bones had complained a lot more and with language much more colorful than this, but then again Jim wasn't really scolding or arguing like he might have if he really were getting tired of hearing him. And that, as it was, was already a rare enough thing. But he did want Bones to stop worrying and just appreciate the nice things without worrying that the nice things might have pointed teeth or be an actual black hole ready to suck them in.

This is nice, and for once Jim didn't plan anything even remotely dangerous. But he wasn't thinking about it much. He figured Bones would ease up and relax once he saw the kinds of hidden treasures he'd found on this small island.

Slowing the boat to a halt in the middle of the cavern, he turned off the engine then stood up, so he could drop the anchor to the bottom of the pool so the boat wouldn't float around and possibly hit any of the rocks. Then he turned to Bones, waiting until the doctor looked at him.

"Thinking of going for a dip?" It was clearly part of Jim's plans, as even while he waited for the answer, he was already taking off his shirt, dropping it on one of the seats on the back along with his sunglasses.

His eyes trailed up one of the vines of flowers and wondered idly what Sulu would think of all this. The flowers were beautiful and the guy always liked to find out more about flora on a planet given the chance. If he weren't such a damn good pilot and perfectly suited for command in the future, he'd say he missed his calling as a botanist. At least he still let himself enjoy those studies even on command track.

Thoughts that derailed when he felt the boat move with Jim's motions. He still didn't look at him, but he could guess what he was doing when he heard something he the water and felt the boat anchored. It wasn't until everything went still that he finally looked back at Jim with a carefully neutral expression, one brow raised in curiosity. At first he shrugged a bit, before finally answering. "Didn't bring anything to swim in."

Which must not be the case for Jim as he started to pull his clothes off. For a dazed second he found his eyes staring at the planes of Jim's chest and stomach before he finally forced himself to look away. As he forced his gaze somewhere else in the cave, he offered quietly. "Guess I should've thought about doin' that." He could probably strip down to his boxers, but it wasn't his most preferable choice neither.

Well, it was true that Jim had dressed accordingly, but even if that weren't the case, he'd still have found a way to work around it. As it was, the small swimming shorts he had on didn't make that much of a difference, not that Jim seemed especially embarrassed as he tugged the rest of his clothes off until he was down to just the one tight-fitting piece of swimwear.

"Should've told you. Sorry about that." And he meant it, even if he had a perfectly good suggestion so far as alternatives went. He thought so, anyway. "You can always swim in nothing at all."

There was a hint of teasing to his tone, and he grinned at Bones, waiting until he caught the doctor's gaze to wink at him.

When he finally did look back at Jim with an arched brow to retort at that comment about wearing nothing, he almost choked at the sight of Jim. The man was practically naked with that choice of swimwear and wow... he didn't realize Jim liked such gaudy colors. His mind was trapped between amused and horrified at the turn it took toward what little Jim left to his perverted imagination. The fact he even caught that wink before he looked away to fight off a blush impressed him.

Muttering something along the lines of 'you gotta be kidding me', he rubbed his face slowly. Spending the entire trip not looking at Jim was gonna be a train wreck. But looking at him sent his mind running down trails he didn't want it to be goin'. And god damn it, he was s'posed to be mad at him. Well, not mad, but irritated at the least.

Sitting there and scowling was just gonna get him yelled at. Again. So he pushed out of his seat without looking at Jim and pulled his shirt off to drop back down in his chair. Toe-ing his shoes off, he ran a hand through his hair as he considered his options from here on. And honestly, he already didn't like the idea of stripping down in front of him... so he supposed he would be swimming in his boxers at this rate.

Still, as his fingers fidgeted with the fly of his pants, he finally slid then down almost slow as the indecision and reluctance plagued him. Even still, he stood there and folded up his pants to drop them on his shirt, careful of the box in the pocket so it wouldn't fall out.

Jim wouldn't yell at Bones again, not now. Honestly he was too amused by Bones's reaction as it was, though he bit back a laugh or any teasing comment he could come up with. He might've just pushed the doctor into frowning for the rest of the day and refusing to do anything fun if he did that.

So right now, the best course of action seemed to be to just give it a rest and let Bones do whatever he wanted. If he didn't want to go swimming, well, that'd be his loss. Jim for one wouldn't skip on the opportunity.

Turning around, he climbed onto the edge of the boat, walking along it until he was standing on the bow. Then he turned around to glance at Bones, eyebrows raising slowly as he watched the doctor undress, possibly with a little too much interest. "Glad to see you're joining me, doc."

Shifting slightly on his feet, he stared at his clothes a minute and only lifted his head when Jim said something. One brow lifted just a little at finding the other's eyes on him already. Rolling his eyes a little, he still didn't move but he did look away. Eyes on the pile of clothes, he imagined going commando later and it wasn't appealing. Shit.

What did it matter anyway? There was nothing special to be seen so why was it such a huge deal? One hand reached around subconsciously to rub at his opposite bicep before he gave a resigned huff of breath. Whatever.

Without letting himself think about it, he pushed his boxers off and tossed them on the pile with the rest of his clothing. "Yeah well, get pretty boring just sitting in a boat, I'd guess." He could feel the heat rushing into his skin the moment he had no clothes on anymore. That was why he turned resolutely, stepped up onto the bow and didn't wait for Jim as he dived into the water easily without barely making a splash.

Jim was admittedly a little curious as to why it was taking the doctor so long to join him. The slight knit in his eyebrows eased when finally Bones stopped fumbling about, and instead his brow arched up and rose high enough to nearly reach his hairline at his next move. Now, that... granted, he had suggested that, but he hadn't really expected Bones to just roll with it.

It caught him completely by surprise, and maybe that would be the excuse he'd give if Bones were to point out that he was staring a little too hard at him. But really, he knew it was just because the doctor looked good and Jim was blatant and shameless as ever. Even if he should probably be a little less so.

His eyes followed Bones as he stepped up onto the bow, and all the way until he dove into the water. He let out a laugh, shaking his head a little, then without so much as a second thought, he tugged down his own swimming briefs, tossing them into the boat where they landed on top of Bones's clothes.

Then he jumped into the water too, a little less gracefully and with a lot more splashing involved.

Jim staring just didn't even register on his radar. Not when he was too busy and focused on just getting in the water and cooling his own body temperature enough to avoid a full body blush. Which was exactly where he was heading at that rate. And thank god, the water was cool enough to do just that. Felt damn good, too.

Breaking surface, he swept a had through his hair to push it back and wiped the water out of his face. And he came up just in time to see Jim tossing his own shorts aside. Well then, it was a good thing Jim decided to jump in cause that damned perverted imagination just got answered and reality was.... not finishing that though. God damn it!

Scrunching his nose as the water splashed in his face, he finally took a breath and scowled at his own train of thought. Distraction. He needed distraction. So he decided to slide down deeper into the water and touch the ocean floor if it wasn't too deep. Something about wanting to know if it felt like a beach back home or not was prevalent in his mind as he swam down to sweep his fingers through the sand. It wasn't that deep, and the action at least got his mind back on track before he swam back up to the surface.

The last thing he needed was to think about Jim Kirk naked in the water with him. Who was equally naked. Sounded like the plot to some terrible romance novel.

Jim figured Bones didn't even notice, not with the way he kept his eyes firmly away from him, focused more on getting into the water than anything else. Probably for the best anyway. As much as he liked teasing the doctor, he also didn't want him to spontaneously combust out of sheer embarrassment.

However, Jim evidently wasn't nearly as self-conscious as Bones was, and he was a lot more comfortable with the idea of being completely naked and stared at. Not that Bones did a lot of staring, granted, but he did look. For long enough to get an eyeful. Not that Jim was going to point that out and tease him about it.

Diving in deep into the water, he broke the surface soon to take a breath, hair swept back in his head by the water. He looked around, searching for Bones, swimming around in slow and idle strokes as he waited for the doctor to resurface, then smiling at him when he did. "You know what? This is much nicer."

Turning his head to look at Jim after he broke the surface, he carefully treaded the surface and cocked his head to the side at Jim’s words. “Nicer?” It seemed silly to parrot back his words, but at the same time it could mean a lot of things. And honestly, his mind was too narrowed and scattered all at once to really focus on anything in particular.

Well, having them both naked that close together might have a lot to do with it. Made him wish he wasn’t so damn private or easily embarrassed. Cause it was obvious it didn’t bother Jim one bit.

Tipping his head back, he traced his eyes up the sides of the cavern walls and up to the holes in the rock that allowed sunlight to drip down into the water below. “It’s a nice change of scenery, that’s for damn sure.” And the water felt good. You didn’t get to enjoy water that much in space. Something he suffered quietly for the most part. It was what it was. “Nice not having to worry about things.” Contrary to his ‘worrying’ from earlier, it wasn’t the same. He didn’t have to worry about suffocation here or the unknown of space even if the planet itself was an unknown.

And if he was honest with himself, he just… liked having Jim there with him. Without that look of frustration on his face that he’d been wearing for weeks.

"Yeah, you know," he trailed off for a moment as he did a few strokes, slowly gliding across the water. "Swimming with nothing on. Kind of freeing, you know?" And no, it didn't bother him much at all, but that didn't mean it didn't affect him in some ways. He was just better than Bones at tempering it down and keeping it to himself. Or just playing it off like it was all lighthearted teasing.

Jim hummed quietly as he swam all the way to a rock nearby, enough that he could prop his feet on its submerged surface, the water still reaching his shoulders. He turned to look at Bones at the remark, a small smile briefly stretching across his face before he shrugged a bit.

"Well, not for now anyway." But things were far from ideal. They got to enjoy some time off here, but there were still the power issues, the Trilks and Feks still stuck with them on the Eluvio, not to mention the murders that had happened while they'd been stuck on the Enterprise. There was quite a lot for them to worry about sooner or later, when they eventually went back to the Eluvio. And Jim for one was never one to run from any problems, unpleasant and difficult though they may be.

But he didn't have to worry about that right now, and he was damn well going to do his best not to.

Snorting at that answer, he rolled his eyes in amusement. Of course Jim thought that was freeing. "I wouldn't be surprised if you were a regular at a nudist beach." Probably enjoy the hell out of it, too. Leonard on the other hand, felt like a fish out of water. Funny comparison when he was actually in the water at the moment.

Treading water, he let his eyes travel around the cave until he finally started to move closer to some of the flowers growing on the walls. He didn't touch, he knew better than to do that. Not without getting readings on his tricorder first. But they were real pretty and even more so up close. Shame he couldn't take one home to Sulu. Silly as the idea was.

Glancing over his shoulder to Jim, he bit his lower lip and looked away again at the sight of Jim's body through the clear water. Maybe it wasn't a clear image.. but it was an image. One he couldn't deny he liked looking at. So he didn't look at all. Instead he turned his attention toward the rise of the 'beach' of sorts out of the water. He did stop from getting out of the water about when the cool liquid lapped at his waist as he once more scooped up some sand. It really didn't feel much different.

"Could be easy to forget a lot else just being here. It's so... secluded." Quiet and beautiful. And maybe he really did like being there in a place like that with just Jim.

Jim let out a laugh at that, shaking his head before he lifted an eyebrow at Bones. "Are you kidding? When exactly would I even get the time to go to the beach?" He didn't have a lot of breaks himself, and even during shore leaves he didn't always get to enjoy as much free time as the rest of the crew. Part of the job, and all. But Jim never minded that much.

However, Bones wasn't wrong. Given the chance, Jim definitely would feel very comfortable going to a nudist beach.

Slowly moving closer to the wall, he found a bit of submerged rock where he could sit down, leaning back so his head was resting against the side of the cave. He closed his eyes and let out a soft hum, smile stretching lazily across his face. "That's so unlike you, Bones. I mean, not complaining or anything, obviously. It's pretty nice to see you relax for a change."

His tone was devoid of teasing, as he opened his eyes again and looked at Bones all the way across the pool of water. "Are you just gonna stay all the way over there? Keep me at a distance for the rest of the day?"

That fact was well known to Leonard. The lack of rest and not taking his leave were things Leonard kept logs of. Well, in capacity of being the ship's CMO after all. But that didn't mean he did it for any other reason than worry for the blonde. Hell, at some point Jim because the focal point of his concern and as much as he took care of all the crew... Jim always got his attention first.

It likely was not fair. Poor work as a doctor, maybe. But sometimes he couldn't help it. Not even when he wasn't sure why he did it. Now if only he could plead that kind of ignorance.

Turning to look at Jim, he arched a brow at him for that comment. "How often do I get to be in a place like this with just you?" He asked it before he could stop himself. This setting... it was perfect. Quiet and peaceful and so beautiful it seemed too much even. And then there was Jim.

And then there was that question,

For a moment, Leonard's eyes dipped, trailing over Jim's face to his neck and shoulders before he looked away. Not like he could answer that question. Letting out a soft sigh, he slipped away from the bank and back into deep water. Swimming over to Jim, he felt a knot coil in his stomach that was for no other reason than wanting to be close and he shouldn't be. Catching the wall lightly, he hesitated as he finally shifted closer to Jim's side. Like he could ever tell the man no... even when he knew damn well he'd regret it.

"And what, pray tell, do you want with me closer?" Arching a brow at him, he aimed for something more joking, less worried about how he wanted to just press against him and relax there. "So you can see if you can drown me by splashing me in the face? Or just shove me under the water? You are an imp.. I expect nothing less than mischievous behavior."

The way Bones said that didn't escape Jim's notice, and no way Jim would let it go without a bit of teasing. Cracking his eyes open, he shot a lopsided grin at him from the distance. "And being here with just me makes it better, does it?" Oh, Bones made it so easy for him sometimes. Although the teasing was all in good nature and more on the friendly and flirty side than anything else, he was pretty sure it'd have the doctor scowling and grumping about it.

Still, it didn't dissuade Bones from making his way over when Jim mentioned the distance, so he didn't say anything else, staying still and quiet like a promise of good behavior would convince the doctor that it was perfectly safe to get closer. And it was, really; as much fun as it'd be to prank the doctor, it also might involve a lot of physical closeness that Jim wasn't so sure he could handle without it turning a little awkward.

And, well... maybe he wouldn't mind something like that, but Bones was his best friend and he wasn't about to make a move when he didn't know if he'd want that too.

He did swat at the water surface once Bones was next to him, just splashing his chest a little but not reaching his face. "Shut up, jerk. I'm just here to enjoy this place peacefully." However, his next remark, as his eyes moved up the wall of the cavern, didn't exactly come off as peaceful. "What if I use these vines to climb the wall?"

He sent Jim a steady look before he made a rather poignant decision that may or may not hurt him in the end. But what was the point of hiding things like that? "Really, Jim... who would make something like this feel better than one of the two most important people in my life?" He gave up on having the traditional father and daughter relationship years ago.

But for a long while since after Jim... died... he was still trying to tell himself he was just fine with the lack of closeness with him. Looking away from Jim, he rolled his eyes without heat when he was splashed. Leaning his head back against the wall, he stared up at the cave roof slowly. Damn it, but he needed to get over all of those insecurities.

Arching a brow as he looked back at Jim, he let out a soft snort. "Peacefully, my ass. Not with fool hardy ideas like climbing the damn wall in your birthday suit on something as unstable as vines." Sending him a disapproving look, he finally closed his eyes as he used that press of the back of his head to the wall as a slight anchor to his body. He just hoped Jim would get over that stupid ass idea.

Jim nearly opened his mouth to tease the doctor about that, but instead just settled into a smile, warm and fond, blue eyes practically shining with delight. "Yes. I know exactly what you mean." Take that as he will, but yes, Jim was certainly implying that Bones was among the most important people in his life. Hell, at this point he may as well be the most important.

A soft chuckle left him at the reaction his question got from the doctor, which was pretty much what he was expecting to hear. Well, short of Bones yelling his ear off about what a reckless thrill-seeker he could be. "Alright, alright! I won't climb the wall, chill. No need to get your panties in a twist."

Metaphorical panties. Not that Bones wore panties. (Oh my God, mental images.)
