Summary
From the fog of Starfleet Academy to the heat of the five-year mission, Spock learns two kinds of love. With Nyota Uhura, he discovers firsts: the music inside language, the ease of being seen, the gentleness of an ending that still aches. With James T. Kirk, he finds the map he didn’t know he needed: stubborn mercy, reckless hope, and a calculus where logic and love can coexist.

Summary
Jim’s “diplomacy” is simple: lock his first officer and his CMO in a lab until the bioneural interface trial behaves—and, ideally, so do they. Spock and McCoy tune fields, trade barbs, and realize the argument has always been a cover for something much louder and much softer.

Summary
The ready room was unsettlingly quiet, and had been since Spock had arrived and taken a seat across from the captain. Captain Pike had been incredibly displeased since leaving the planet's surface, and had ordered Spock to follow him to the ready room, where they had been sitting in silence since.
Spock did not want to interrupt Captain Pike’s thoughts, but he was beginning to feel disoriented, his inhibitions were lowered, and he had come to the conclusion that he was not, in fact, immune to the interrogation drug that he had been dosed with by the most recent members of the Federation.

Summary
Spock catalogs every casual touch from his captain with scientific precision—the hand on his shoulder, the brush of fingers, the unnecessary closeness on the bridge. What he doesn't realize is that James Kirk's "accidental" contact is anything but random.

Summary
Holly’s breath caught as the artificial gravity failed, sending her weightless into the open air. Her fingers scrambled for purchase, but there was nothing to hold onto—just the hollow, nauseating absence of solid ground beneath her.
Then—hands.
Warm. Steady. Anchoring.
Spock had moved before he could think, his hands gripping her shoulders, keeping her from drifting too far. His voice, low and measured, cut through the panic pressing against her ribs.
“Focus on my breathing.”
His forehead pressed gently against hers, and—suddenly, she was here. The disorientation ebbed, her heartbeat syncing with the steady rhythm of his breath.
Her fingers curled into the fabric of his uniform, just enough to ground herself. Just enough to remind herself that she was still whole.
Spock did not move away.
And neither did she.

Spock’s mother used to hold him.
She would wrap him in her arms and run her fingers along the point of his ears with her cool hands, muttering sweetie and baby and it’s okay and I love you.

Summary
Captain Kirk was a very tactile person.
Spock had noticed this, watching him when the bridge was quiet. Kirk clapped Riley on the back, tapped Uhura on the hand, bumped shoulders with McCoy, brushed Sulu’s arm on the way to the front of the bridge.
He’d never touched Spock.
-----
OR: The first time Kirk ever touched Spock.
