Spock wasn't actually at the beach. He knew where the beach party was, knew that there was a beach party going on, but would still rather keep his distance from people that were, by now, probably drunk. He had already been embarrassed once on this shore leave, and he didn't know if he could look at Kirk again without strangling him into the sand for his unwitting display. It would be illogical to do so, if Jim didn't know his wanton acts had been broadcast, but he predicted that some simple pleasure would come out of the act anyway ( ... )

"I do," He agreed; he had attended her choral concerts, of course. Spock looked down into the glass, swirling the icy chocolate drink in circles with his spoon, perhaps to achieve some uniformity in its appearance. "And I did want to spend time with her."

But there was something to be said about being unable to look at certain people without imagining them nude, in various positions, or worse: having that associated itself with something he actually wanted to think about. That was ultimately the reason he was still drinking this shake and becoming intoxicated: so he could spare himself, for at least an evening, the lightning-bolt organization of his mind that juxtaposed 'his counterpart doing obscene things with the Doctor' and 'things he was planning to treat Nyota to.'

Spock took another spoonful.

"Yet I also believe she would like to enjoy the evening with the crew, at least for enough time to become acquainted with everyone present."

Did want to spend time with her? Meaning you changed your mind? Kirk thought to himself, frowning a little. He chewed the inside of his lip for a second before deciding to risk it, "She's definitely having fun but..." He tried to be diplomatic, and it came to him. "Why don't you find her near the end of the night?"

Yea, that would make sense, "Less people'll be around so you won't have to deal with so many, and I think she'd be happy if you at least came around to the party, even if briefly... even happier to walk home with you."

"I was considering that option." He slid the spoon in to the side of the glass, now that the consistency was even and the cream disappeared. Briefly, the glass was brought up so he could sip a little through the wide straw. The associations in his mind were still there, though not as boldly and without as much troubling feeling. "...and I will likely pursue it."

kirktastic August 24 2009, 15:33:02 UTC

"Good." He relaxed a little, "You should... she's a social animal," Oh definitely, with that singing earlier... oh, matter at hand, yes. "But she's obviously crazy about you."

Not many people would put up with Spock and his oddities otherwise, Kirk was fairly sure.

cso_spock August 24 2009, 16:32:04 UTC

There were a lot of things he wanted to say to that, as a matter of topic and opinion, but he was not so affected by the chocolate that it removed the guards between his thoughts and his mouth. He glanced at Kirk for a moment, saying nothing, and then took the straw by the neck and swirled it once around the glass.

It was difficult, if not impossible, to read Spock. He squeezing his fingers together briefly, then sighed a little to himself. More of his drink vanished down his throat before he said quietly, "Hey, look, Spock... sorry. I know you don't like me prying into your private affairs." Figuring that was what Spock was upset about.

cso_spock August 24 2009, 20:46:41 UTC

Spock allowed himself to feel amused at Kirk's discomfort. It wasn't an easy feat to accomplish, given that there was hardly anything that offended him and less that he didn't want to talk about that didn't overlap with his own tough subjects.

"Do not apologize, Jim. You are not 'prying'--your opinion is quite valid."

kirktastic August 24 2009, 20:48:56 UTC

Still liked when Spock called him Jim. It was like a mini-Victory.

"Well, thanks, I think." Kirk offered a sort of lazy grin in return, "So what had you here," A gesture to the nightclub behind them, "If you didn't want to be with everyone," A point down the way where the crew's party was happening, "There?"

cso_spock August 25 2009, 18:40:26 UTC

"The simple fact that if they or I do anything embarrassing, we will not have to face each other in the near or probable future." Another idle stir through the drink with the straw. "That is generally what happens at those functions, unless their memories have been skewed by outside forces." Like flowing alcohol and recreational drugs, neither of which Spock liked to indulge in, ignoring the mudslide he was holding in his hand at the moment. Bartenders generally didn't understand your requests when you asked for liquid chocolate or some similar derivative.

Kirk eyed Spock in silence. Bullshit, he said in his mind. There was something more, something Spock isn't telling him, but it probably isn't his place to ask. "Guess so." He said in a tone that called bullshit without saying it.

cso_spock August 25 2009, 20:29:16 UTC

In contrast, Jim wasn't the hardest person to read, no matter the chocolate syrup and the half-bar. If it wasn't in his tone, then it was in his use of words, agreeing-but-not-really. "If you have a theory of your own, you are welcome to share it." Spock took a sip of the shake again.

kirktastic August 25 2009, 20:34:54 UTC

"If I did, I would have said it." Kirk said with a small shrug, meaning it. He wasn't sure exactly what he was calling bullshit on, just a mental nudge that was tell--

It was one of the very few times he realized that what he had told another Spock all together was true. Intuition.

cso_spock August 26 2009, 16:18:41 UTC

Another sip. The drink was now well on its way to the halfway mark of the tall glass. "...when I am finished with this drink," And sufficiently intoxicated. "We may both join the festivities. At the very least you should return, as the captain and host."

kirktastic August 27 2009, 19:37:53 UTC

"I'm not captain or host tonight." Kirk dismissed the thought with a hand, "Tonight, I'm just Jim. That's all I want to be. I'll be Captain tomorrow." He studied Spock in silence, the pale skin lit up by the lights from below on the boardwalk. So similar and yet so different then the very same-not-same man he had done lovely dirty things with only the night before.

He felt close to Spock, the other Spock, but this one he still felt millions of miles apart.

cso_spock August 27 2009, 20:15:54 UTC

One indication that the chocolate was starting to affect his mind was his first thought in response to Jim's comment. Something that could quite possibly be an innuendo about how he wouldn't mind him being captain tonight--but, luckily, it died before it even got to his throat.

He eyed his hand for a moment, and then looked out towards the ocean again. In the background, he could hear snippets of other conversations, music from down below, chatter from the boardwalk. "...then what would you prefer to do, as Jim?"
