i... hadn’t even realized that was a thing?

Possibly true. Not familiar with Canada. I just know enough about deserts to know that forests don’t grow there and they tend to be a lot more sandy than Discovery would have people believe.

I've been plotting horrible things to do to Spock in the Empire. I might have him take care of my shoes.

“Please don’t.”

You are most welcome! But really. I will chalk up not seeing Paul mourn to how he processes emotions. He certainly keeps them inside around most people and deals with things in his own way. So I can see him trying to keep up a strong front amongst the cadets and jr. officers he works with. He is very good at compartmentalizing things and they are still at war and things have turned to shit. BUT that doesn’t mean Paul isn’t hurting. I think he is determined to not see Hugh’s death as the end. Even Hugh told him that. So part of Paul is going to be obsessed with finding out if he can be brought back through the Network but that doesn’t lessen the blow at all. The man he loves still died. And I think the show needs to acknowledge that better. I am so proud of Paul for coming out of his coma and reassuring Tilly that he knew and getting back to work but the moment he is alone and can take a moment to pause, you can’t tell me it’s not all going to hit him like a truck. So I can see him throughout the day doing little things like playing Hugh’s music. Even wearing his clothes, like some sweater that looks baggy af on him. Hugh was always the one he could open up to and I think Paul is a bit at a loss of who he can talk to. I think Tilly is an obvious choice. Michael maybe but she’s dealing with her own shit losing Ash and having Phillipa back but not really. Paul doesn’t do the whole crying on someone’s shoulder it just isn’t who he is. He is a man of science and will bury himself into his work but that doesn’t mean he isn’t mourning.
