i love it when spock is in command bc he will so casually make the most completely deranged request to someone on bridge crew and they'll go "haha..? ...sir?" thinking he's joking, but then he'll just raise that one (1) eyebrow and they immediately go "oh, of course, sir! right away! (fear)"

"Ah, Nik, wait!"
Nikolai turns back around at the sound of the Captain's voice.
"You're going to make me miss my flight," he pretends to complain, not able to keep himself from smiling.
Price rolls his eyes. "You're the one flying your flight back home."
Nik chuckles. John looks annoyed, but clearly it's not directed at him if him relaxing in his presence is to be believed.
"Anyway, I won't keep you long, I just need you to teach me how to say something in Russian."
There's a terrible idea rising in Nik's mind. He tries to ignore it at first.
"There's this guy, he's a fucking asshole and I'd like to tell him to go fuck himself in his native language."
He nods distractedly at Price. But it would be the perfect moment... He leaves right after that, after all... And John wouldn't understand right away, he'd have time to go hide somewhere.
"Right," he clears his throat and smiles at Price. "I can do that, sure. Repeat after me, try to remember the words : я -"
Price squints his eyes in concentration. He looks so fucking cute that Nik could die.
"Ya -"
"влюбилась"
"Woah, okay, vl...vlyoubeelas?"
Nik's smile is growing. "Good," he says, voice lower. Swears that John's cheeks are redder than they were before. Interesting. "в"
Price frowns. "Just 'vv' ?"
"Да. And finally, тебя."
"Tyebya."
Nik's heart is starting to beat a bit faster, apparently just now realising what he was doing. There's no going back now.
"Now the whole thing : я влюбилась в тебя"
John's brow furrows more in deep focus. "Ya vlyoubeelas vtyebya."
Damn, that makes Nik's cheeks warmer and his smile wider. He knows that Price doesn't mean it, doesn't even know what it means, but if that's all he's going to get, he's going to cherish it inside his heart.
He isn't sure John will want anything to do with him when he'll look it up, after all, he hasn't survived this long by having too high hopes. His smile softens and he nods at his friend.
"Not bad. Remember the words."
Price huffs. "Of course I'll remember the words. Now go, wouldn't want you to miss your own chopper back home."
Nik laughs and shakes his head as he turns around and walks to his helicopter. He stops before climbing in, turns his head back towards the Captain.
"Oh, and John, don't actually tell him that, he has no right to hear it."
He knows Price well enough to know that he's sighing right now, but he's too far to hear it.
"What did you even teach me?" He asks in a jokingly tired voice.
Nik grins back at him. "You'll have to look it up, зайчик."

Aye, a Newt
I have to get this "She turned me into a newt!" thing out of my brain, sorry. It keeps demanding to be written. So here it is.
There is a "newt" parallel between S1 and S2, you see. It's a pretty sly joke. Easily missed by most, I would think.
Some of this I have mentioned before, but lets repeat it.
The CGI initially didn't make it clear to me what kind of reptiles the kids of Job were transformed into by Crowley, and it wasn't until I saw an article about the CGI that I found out they were supposed to be geckos. Ah! Right. Makes sense. Geckos are more likely the kind of thing to found in an arid area like the Middle East... But I can tell the CGI team isn't that familiar with the cute little beasties.
See, I grew up in a part of the world where they are a common thing, and a part of everyday life, particularly during the warmer summer months. And those CGI geckos lacked a bit of authenticity in my eyes. Such as the on-screen geckos never once licked their eyes clean with their tongues. Or squeaked. And yes, ...barking geckos are a real thing. Feisty little buggers they can be, too. They don't want you messing with them, and they let you know.
The whole turning kids into geckos bit is great imo. Take a look at this shoulder-angel view just beforehand.
Yep. They're on the wrong side. Little devils. Then the two older devils kids proceed to piss the older devil demon off, who promptly turns them into newts geckos with a snap of his fingers, which left poor sweet I'm-Jemimah-and-I-made-this-pot! feeling left out, who had done nothing wrong, asks to be a blue (Heaven-coded) one, and who can resist that little honey, hmmm?
OK. Newts, or geckos, they are both lizards, and they were usually associated with the occult and their use by witches. But where did this come from?
Er, not the "Scottish Play"...although they are mentioned there:
“Fillet of a fenny snake, In the cauldron boil and bake; Eye of newt and toe of frog, Wool of bat and tongue of dog, Adder’s fork and blind-worm’s sting, Lizard’s leg and owlet’s wing, For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.”
Reptiles such as geckos and lizards had magical qualities to the ancient Egyptians and Mesopotamian's, as they were able to regenerate their tails if they lost them. So they were a very apt choice for our witch, I mean demon, sorry, to turn Job's kids into. Crowley and Aziraphale did have to "regenerate" them back into children later on the next day.
Then we have Newt joining forces with Anathema, the modern day witch, in S1.
Yeah. Enough said, there, I think.
