   Summary

   A t’hy’la bond is a sacred, joyous thing. It is not a thing of accident, of mistake.

   When Jim and Spock are accidentally bound together during a first contact meeting with a telepathic species, Spock is consumed by the guilt of forcing Jim into a lifelong bond that cannot be broken.

   Jim, for his part, just wants to figure out if Spock likes him or not.
