icarusI've taken time off to write fic. I find that Jim and Kirk will not get down to business. No, no, they want to talk about Vulcan, and the Vulcan perspective on humans:
"Checkmate," Spock said, placing his final piece.
"How is that Vulcans play a human game?" Jim asked.
"There are those on Vulcan who feel the existence and popularity of chess on Earth demonstrates that there's hope," Spock explained.
"Hope for?—ahh," understanding dawned on the captain's face before he even finished the question.
"Yes. Hope that, one day, humans may embrace pure logic."
Of course, Jim can't resist prodding at that, does Spock think it likely?--and really, guys, there's a plot that's supposed to happen. I realize it's not much of one, but interesting as you are, you're interrupting.
