Full Title: Exercising Caution

[Kirk and Spock | G | fluff]

"Captain, I must insist that you consider the dangers of what you are proposing.  It would be far more logical to allow me, as Science Officer, to proceed down to the surface in your stead, and first map out any fluctuations in atmospheric radiation.  My equipment indicates that the planet is Class M, but I am picking up somewhat disconcerting readings regarding electromagnetic radiation that may prove dangerous to human welfare."

"Absolutely not, Mr. Spock.  You're the Acting Captain while I'm down there.  They need you here."

"Then, if you will not allow me to assess the risks of the situation you are insisting upon placing yourself in, I would ask that you exercise extreme caution when encountering any changes in the readings, and I would advise that you ensure the use of the proper protective equipment."

"I will."  He turned quickly toward the door.

Spock cleared his throat and Kirk looked back.  "I believe the equivalent Earth phrase is something approximating, 'Take care, Jim.' "

A smile tugged the corners of Kirk's mouth.  "Always, Spock."
Rated G. Kirk and Spock, from Star Trek: TOS.

I didn't comment on this before, because I'm a dick, and I just read it 8 billion times instead. XD

Your Spock is the best Spock I have ever seen. If it were a peacock, it would bring tears to my eyes.

X3 this story's so cute. I love it So. Damn. Much.
