for gmonkey42, prompt: Spock's having a crappy day because his management style isn't working too well for some of the humans; Kirk cheers him up

Cheering Up | G | 100 words | complete

Spock did not understand Humans. He understood they were not predisposed to logic, and lacked the training that allowed Vulcans to function as they did. But he did not understand why they could not function in a purely logical situation. The Human scientific method should have been perfect: postulate, test, report results. He knew his department were the best in Starfleet; he did not understand why they could not follow simple procedures. He mentioned as much to Jim over dinner.

"Well," Jim said, "if they were perfect, you'd have nothing to do."

Illogical, but Spock struggled to keep from smiling.

Feedback is better than chocolate.
