"I don't know," Jim says slowly, piloting them away from the little outpost and back out into space, "sometimes when you're right about the worst-case scenario, you seem kind of smug."
Jim's definitely just giving him shit, but also-- well. Every time Bones has been right about something that Jim insisted was absolutely unquestionably Not A Big Deal, he's heard about it for weeks. Months. Years, even! There was that thing, with the rehabilitation planet and the mind control, which in Jim's opinion should have hit its expiration date ages ago.
Smug? No, it's not smug, Jim; it's pointing out that he is occasionally right when it comes to his pessimistic outlook and one should never simply dismiss it out of hand. Reminders are necessary, especially in this business.
... And, really, mind control is never something to take lightly.
"There is nothing wrong with being right." You want smug? That's a smug statement, conjuring up with all the arrogance he can summon.
i'm alive
