Red alert sounded through the whole ship. In Ten Forward Guinan was humming under her nose and wiping out glasses. They made a nice row on the counter when clean: in different shapes, colors, sizes, they glistened under the dim light. She put down a pear-shaped one and took a slim tall tumbler. The last were in fashion in Starfleet, maybe because they reminded humans of their labs and test tubes.
“Hi, Q”, Guinan said without taking her eyes off of the glass. A male figure slid down from the ceiling where it rested a second ago.
“Guinan”, the man intoned. “So good to see you”.
“Yeah?” her eyes flickered up for a moment. The man considered it as an invitation and leaned on the other side of the bar.
“Mmph, so noisy!” he winced at the alert siren and snapped his fingers. The noise stopped, now only the red lights gleamed on the transparent forms of the glasses. “Aren’t you afraid, Guinan? This ship is about to blow up”.
“I think the captain is handling it very well”, she answered steadily. “I also think that you have installed a little safety circuit into the warp engine, so that it doesn’t overload”.
“I haven’t!” Q shifted restlessly. “How about that?”
Guinan shrugged and aligned her glasses.
“Then we’ll die. Not the first time, you know”.
“Aren’t you going to do anything – anything – to save them?” he mocked her. “No-o, I can’t believe it! Your precious humans, Guinan! You’ve always adored them – and look where it has brought you: you are doing their dishes. Shame on you!”
She put down her towel and rested her hands heavily on the counter.
“I’m perfectly happy where I am, thank you”, Guinan looked the man in the eye. “And you should be, too”.
Q moved forward, returning her stare. Red lights stopped suddenly, and Ten Forward returned to its usual colors.
“Looks like they have managed it by themselves”, the woman said. “Again. Sorry, Q, planning has never been your strength”.
His face was grave, and she wasn’t sure if he was just acting it up or not. He stepped from the bar.
“Good bye, Guinan. Or should I better say, Doctor? I never liked your new name”.
“Good bye, Q”, this time she smiled a little. He curled his lip:
“Why?”
“We have sworn”.
Q dismissed it with raised eyebrows:
“No one’s looking! No one’s there anymore! Only us! We can do whatever we want! You are like a child, really”.
“Too much power, Q. Look where it has brought you”.
“To the top of the world?”
Guinan laughed softly. The intercom came alive with Picard’s voice:
“Everything’s fine in Ten Forward?”
“Yes. Thank you, captain”.
“Seems like Q’s left for now”.
“He has”, she turned off the intercom and smiled at her guest. “Good bye, Q”.
He cocked his head and waited.
“Good bye, Master”, she said. He beamed approvingly:
“I like it when you use my name. See you soon”.
He snapped his fingers and disappeared.
