I love me some sick McCoy, but I have to admit, I'm really more excited about the prospect of Jim "doing crazy shit in sickbay." Maybe Bones is miserable and so Jim tries to distract him with his crazy shit?
Jim’s eyebrows rose in an irritatingly familiar way.
“Fine.”
Jim knew Len had to be hurting to give in that quick. He took care of their plates (his plate, Len’s bowl) and went back to sickbay. Geoff looked at them oddly as Len climbed onto a biobed with little fanfare, much to Jim and Geoff’s shock.
He’s got to be in pain. Jim pulled over a chair and parked it while Geoff did his thing. He checked the results, and then double-checked them.
“What?” Len’s voice cracked; Jim flinched at the awful sound.
“Your tonsils are so inflamed I’m amazed you can still speak.” Geoff set the tricorder on the biobed and felt along Len’s jaw and upper throat. “It’s also telling me your wisdom teeth need to come out.”
Len’s eyes narrowed.
“All four.” He withdrew his hands before Len could swat at him. “The tonsils need to come out, the sooner, the better, but we can wait a few more weeks on the wisdom teeth, if you want to.”
Do them together, Jim thought. He’d had his wisdom teeth out - the bottom ones - since they hadn’t had room to come
( ... )
Starship captains weren’t really supposed to take a day off. Then again, Jim had never been conventional. Which was why he’d taken the day after Len was released from his own Sickbay two days after his dual surgeries, mostly because of his slight fever (it had happened toward the evening, or what passed for it, on a starship) and decided that the cartography department could use a little more time to map out this section of the quadrant, in case there was something anyone might have previously missed, and figured Spock could hold down the fort. And it was as good a chance as any for Jim to get caught up on reading some back reports that had filtered in from Engineering (concerning their latest “accident”) and the Science Department

Thank you so, so much! <3 I loved it! (And I wish when *I* was wishing for a merciful death post wisdom teeth removal, I'd had Jim there to comfort me. :) )
Jim doing crazy shit in sickbay ("did you know you can make a mini water fountain from an IV?") would be a very welcome bonus XD
