action??? If you'd rather stick to video I can change it but I went for the spacebro exemption :D
[Hearing Data with that voice just... isn't right. Not anymore. Maybe once it was expected, but for Geordi, to hear it now is a stark reminder of how much Data's changed and grown, and how he's literally turned that growth off, reset it. However temporarily Data intends to nullify his emotion chip, Geordi isn't terribly pleased with it.]
[It's not that he doesn't understand, and empathize with, the reasoning. The Captain needed them, first and foremost. And Data, new to the strong emotions that come with relationships like his and Seven's, might have found the grief overwhelming. There were times Geordi wished, fleetingly, that he could turn off his feelings: the disappearance of his mother's ship and the false hope he had of finding her, the loss of Tasha... and, now. He and Seven hadn't shared the closeness she shared with Data, but she was a friend and someone whose absence is sharply poignant, both because of what Geordi had come to know of her and because of what she meant to his best friend. To hear Data so flat is almost worse than hearing him in pain, because Seven, and the relationship she and Data shared, was worth grieving over.]
[The Captain is doing better. So the time has come for Geordi to do what best friends are supposed to do -- help his friend through this the right way.]
Hey, Data. [Whenever after his announcement Geordi manages to find Data in their apartment, he takes advantage of the opportunity to offer Data a cup of coffee and a sympathetic ear. It's not replicator quality since he brewed it himself, but hey. The ear is more important than the drink.]
