Thank you! Is it weird that I really love how you caught Jim's favorite word? Because I really really love that you noticed his weird love of it :D I really thought it could use more Bones, tbh, because I heart him with a firey passion too ♥

I'm glad you liked the UST and the almost t'hy'la-ness of the Vulcan language things <3 <3 <3

I truly enjoyed this! I just love how Spock is so clueless :) Love for your McCoy. It was so cute how they first started to communicate through encrypted messages :)

Incredible work - it seems so fitting that they go through relationship counseling before starting the actual relationship. I love the ciphers too... I may have to go back tomorrow and work them out... although it seems a bit off to me that Spock is slow to solve them. It's been a while, but I always thought of cryptograms as logic problems. Also, it seems fitting that Spock wouldn't quite get that Jim wanted to befriend/court him. Great job

Thank you!

And yeah, for metaphorical purposes I needed Spock to not quite get the cryptograms right at first. But I figured that Spock's never really had to deal with ciphers and things so, even though he'd eventually figure them out more quickly with logic, at first it's slow going because he's sort of rusty at it. If that makes sense? :)

That does make sense. And you're right, of course, that it fits metaphorically.
