James Tiberius Kirk/Spock (Star Trek)

James Tiberius Kirk, Spock (Star Trek)

Drabble, Prompt Fill

"Not logical, right, Mr. Spock?"

"That is correct, Captain."

"Not...naturally occurring, in Vulcans - is that right, Mr. Spock?"

"Quite right, Captain."

"Simply not something you experience - and very admirable, by the way."

"Thank you, Captain."

"So tell me, Mr. Spock. How would I know, beyond just assuming to...know...that you cared for me? That you felt I cared for you? Without any big leaps of logic, of course."

"Of course."

"Yes?"

Quintessentially quizzical.

"Quite simple, Jim. It becomes almost too obvious. Easy enough for any, be they human or Vulcan, to follow. I would be vulnerable with you."
