oh this is delightful. as always I am so completely smitten with how you write the two of them. *happy sighs*

and one she often forgets to disclose until after it has been served.

oh Gaila. ♥

Aww, thank you! You can probably tell I adore writing them together. They keep busting in when I'm writing other things. They wanted a wedding banquet, what could I do but comply?

(also "intoxicated Vulcans/Orions" is one of my new all-time OTPs!)

Mmm, quite delicious! :-)

[anodyna]

So glad you enjoyed it! :)

I agree with all the delicious comments. Delicious... deliciously intimate. :) I can just see Spock with a lapful of happy and mischievous Orion, taking food from her fingers and giving that little half smile. ::purrs:: <3

[anodyna]

Hee, thank you! I can see it, too. :) I have so much love for these characters, I just want to put them in every possible situation and see what happens.

(Dark secret: in my head not only did they just get married, but in the future they have adorable little green half-vulcan babies. I am not a baby person how is this happening?)

[mistaria]

I am highly entertained by your dark secret... and by imagining half-Vulcan/Orion babies. I can't even imagine what kind of conflict would happen within those kids with all the Vulcan emotions and Orion hormones... But they would be the most adorable things ever!

I am not a baby person either but for some reason I usually love reading about my favourite couples starting families.

[anodyna]

The little tiny green baby ears, I just...don't even...gah!

ITA, Vulcan emotions + Orion hormones, so adorable! I imagine them interacting with their little cousins, some all-Vulcan, some all-Orion, plus Spock and Nyota's kids (um yes kids everywhere) who would be all logical and linguistic--and also very closely and somewhat confusingly related. :)

This is great!

[anodyna]

Yay, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

[shighola]

Oh, I love this! There is not nearly enough Spock Prime/Gaila in the world :)

[anodyna]

I TOTALLY AGREE! And, thank you so much. ♥
