" if that's the case, i do hope you're not as mad as him " scotty lowered his voice, as he tucked the device beneath his arm. a hand already reaching up to rub the bridge of his nose. " —god knows i can only handle so much. "

spock's gaze remains on his data padd as @wylloh approaches, with her tray. technically he should be on a break, but such regiments are more to benefit the human members of the crew. he does look up though, as she begins speaking, the slight furrow of his brow the only indication of his bewilderment. ❛ a. . . healthy alternative. ❜ because it appears there's nothing else to say. ❛ thank you for sharing. ❜

❛ i had not realised you were a fan of the classics. ❜ he admits as they make their way from the library to his quarters. hands are folded behind his back as they walk, @wylloh at his side. ❛ i would have showed you my collection earlier, had i known. ❜ it's not often that he offers such insights to his own personal hobbies, but he will make an exception to the youngest kirk. they arrived at his quarters & spock lets them in; incense still hangs heavy in the air, the only artifacts from his home on show are the books from his mother- the rest too painful to keep displayed. ( sc. )

he gestured down to willow's tattooed hands, then let out a quiet hum— low and skeptical, as he wiped his mouth. " don't lie 'bout this one, please. i won't tell the captain. " chances are, kirk probably knew already— but scotty liked cool tattoo backstories.

@wylloh

spock looks up from his station. he'd heard @wylloh's approach, of course, but had simply assumed she'd been looking for the captain. ❛ of course, ms kirk. what is it you need? ❜

he's long since accepted that any silence that threatens to settle over a room that @wylloh is in, will quickly be broken. spock never minds; though he would never give away the fact that it's quite entertaining. ❛ no. but i would suggest getting it removed. it can cause an infection at any time. ❜

❛ i do not believe that would be wise. ❜ features turning downwards in a slight frown as he carefully places a hand on @wylloh's shoulder, keeping her where she is. ❛ doctor mccoy said you were to rest for the day. you will only do more damage if you resume your work now. ❜ he already knows that if she is anything like her brother that it will take nothing short of a mild sedative to keep her put. & if that must be the way. . . so be it. ❛ i assure you the ship is working as well as it can in the conditions & we will arrive for repairs shortly. you are not currently needed in engineering. ❜
