I thought you had to finish your mission report.

I do. But I thought it would be more pleasing to engage with you socially.

You old romantic.

I wouldn’t say ‘When Harry Met Sally’ is my favorite movie in the world, but it pinpointed something that everyone connects to: the I-didn’t-know-I-was-in-love-with-my-best-friend thing. That obviously comes from Emma. Jane Austen pinpointed it in the Emma-Mr. Knightley relationship. It’s been used successfully as a thematic problem in two people’s lives in a lot of stories, and that’s really a testament to Jane Austen’s observation of the romantic human condition. /… / I think everyone has had that best friend where you just argue, you do everything together, and years go by and you wonder if you should have kissed that person. And I think that’s why ‘When Harry Met Sally’ exists, because of Knightley and Emma—and ‘Reality Bites’ with Winona Ryder and Ethan Hawke. That’s a totally Mr. Knightley/Emma relationship. /… / The movie is very much supposed to play into everyone’s memory of that best friend that maybe they should have kissed. — Autumn De Wilde

Oh the struggle of Spock fans who don't care about ships, or they like his actual romance in the reboot just fine and/or would like for his actual stories and backstory to get developed more.

It's funny because some people in this fandom concern troll so much about Uhura being "reduced to a love interest" but I actually, ironically, at times find much more fanon gen content about her than about Spock. It's like people essentially project on her the very thing they do with Spock themselves. I mean, try being a Spock fan who doesn't think his role is just being either Kirk's nerdy friend or boyfriend, or one piece of the original trio. Try finding content that isn't, like, about Spock needing to see the light and understand how to human thank to his dudebro (cue the whining when canon doesn't align with such interpretations.. I mean, it's almost as if...Spock is part human himself? And he has a life beyond THAT captain and ship? Whoa).

Part of the reason why I’m not more of a Trekkie is that every time I look up “spock/uhura” or “spock & his family” nine out of every ten posts are still about Spirk.

Interspecies Relationship- Day 22 of Trektober 2021

This can be summed up as Nyota Uhura is a Disney princess and Spock is in awe

Spock awoke to a quiet, overcast morning. The sky was covered with clouds, the sun barely peeking through to the world below. 

It was the first day of spring break and he wasn't looking forward to it. Although most of the students would be travelling somewhere else, perhaps Las Vegas or to the swaying palm trees of Florida, there were still plenty on campus to make going anywhere insufferable.

Nyota had laughed when he told her the previous night of his annoyance. He had been offended but her promise to make their first spring break less insufferable was holding true. Today they would be going to the California Academy of Sciences. He'd thoroughly planned their day, if he got up now, they would have time to eat breakfast, prepare lunch and get going before the predicted rush.

He threw an arm over to Nyota's side of the bed and felt the cold sheets instead. Peculiar, he thought. She'd been there when he went to sleep, and when he woke up at three o'clock in the morning.

While he got up to investigate, he heard a song drifting in the air. He opened the door and walked down the corridor. The song got louder.

He stopped and listened for a moment.

"A dream is a wish your heart makes,

When you're fast asleep,"

Could it be Nyota singing? He knew of her talent. She'd told him that one of her ways to learn a language so quickly was to sing. 

"In dreams you will lose your heartache,

Whatever you wish for, you keep,"

Spock continued to the bathroom and saw his prediction was true. 

Nyota was kneeling over his bathtub, the luxuries of having graduated the Academy already meant his apartment was upgraded. Her hands combed through her hair, covered in suds. The soft scent of roses and honey was wafting around with the steam.

He didn't know if she'd noticed him or if she was purply comfortable in his presence. The human part of him hoped for the latter, although it was illogical to believe his hope had any influence on her desires. She continued to sing as she rubbed other parts of her scalp.

"Have faith in your dreams and someday,

Your rainbow will go shining through, 

No matter how your heart is grieving, 

If you keep on believing,

The dream that you wish,

Will come true," She took a deep breath after she stopped.

"Morning, Spock,"

He couldn't find words. How could he not find words? They were just words.

He gulped, "Indeed it is, Nyota,"

She smiled and gestured at him to come closer. He knelt down beside her.

"Enjoying my singing?"

He nodded.

"Want to wash the soap out of my hair?" She asked and lent her head over the edge of the bath when he nodded.

He took the shower head from the wall and slowly ran his fingers through her long brown hair. Maybe it was the early morning keeping his defences down, or perhaps it was her effect on him, but waves of her calm flooded through his hands as he stroked and rubbed her head. 

She opened her eyes after he was done and smiled at him, "Now I've got to condition, put my heating cap on, leave it for an hour, wash it out, style, get ready and we can go,"

"That's a lot, perhaps we should reschedule the museum trip for another day?"

She sat up, "Why?"

"That is a lot to do and if we are to leave by ten o'clock then-"

"Spock, it's only just gone eight AM, we have plenty of time,"

"I suppose we don't have to get there exactly when it opens,"

She nodded and reached for the conditioner. He pushed her head down as he squeezed some onto his hand and raked them through her hair.

The calm was spreading to him as he stroked her hair. They had plenty of time, plenty. 

Hope you enjoyed this!
