[ The visual that is eventually able to be produced for Chris is from one of the sensors on the saucer; it shows an excellent view of the giant space shark and a not-so-great view of Loki, focused mostly on his boots and the hem of his cloak.

It does, miraculously, provide an excellent audio feed, helped by the fact that there's no delay from the Universal Translator.

The entire bridge gets to tune in to hear Loki proclaiming in a ringing voice that he is he who is Silvertongue and Moon-King! Tell me, he adds, and there's a brief murmur of confusion among the crew all avidly watching what's going on up on the view screen, staring into the many-toothed mouth of the shark and speculating among themselves about just what, exactly, is going the fuck on.

There's a long beat of silence, and Chris has just enough time to look over at the communications desk in confusion before Loki's voice starts up again.

Oh, ummm. Yeah, I'm kind of dating someone? Not dating! Seeing. Casually! We haven't ... worked that out yet.

Spock says something about scanner arrays and never-before-seen readings from his attempts to categorize what it is that's floating in front of them, but Chris can't focus. What the hell did that thing ask that had Loki offering up that kind of response? ]
