Note: I realize my description of the singing voices of the captains may require the suspension of disbelief. However, I have always seen any representation of Star Trek, including the original series, as only an approximation of a much more excellent reality existing somewhere--"out there, thataway." In my admittedly outlandish imagination, they can sing. *g*

Spock found himself "strangely drawn" to Gary Seven’s black cat, Isis, in "Assignment: Earth." At the very end of the episode, we saw her as a cat-eared woman. She explains to us why, and demonstrates to Spock why he should go after his heart’s desire.

In the aftermath of Balance of Terror, both Kirk and Spock struggle to accept the violence and the deaths. Kirk prowls the ship, disturbed by the knowledge that Spock might have easily died along with Tomlinson. But Spock has a Vulcan ritual to remember the fallen, and in the dark cocoon of night, he invites Kirk to share it with him.

Betas: Graciously performed by Islaofhope and Animasola, who are both brilliant and warp-speed-fast; thank you both so much! It was as much fun as writing the piece in the first place.
