Appointments

If you wish to meet with me at a scheduled time and place, I would not be opposed to that idea.
Ensure that all details are manifest.
Peace and Long Life.
Ensure that all details are manifest.
Peace and Long Life.
OOC Warning:
First and foremost I am a student... so please be patient with me on replies.

[Spock closes his eyes for a moment....]
Do you require nourishment at this time? I am amenable to answering any of your questions if you have them.
....
This 'vacation' was a excellent idea.
no subject
[Because Luceti would drive anyone into madness.
Lupin pulled himself upright, mindful of anything that would throw off his awarenes, and stretched.]
Breakfast is a good thing. We can think about any questions as they come, because I'm honestly not thinking of any right now. It's...too big. [And it was rare for him to even admit that.]
Oh--before I forget. Whenever you're feeling up to it, we should get you to the Dome for a proper physical. Just in case something happens, that way our doctors will know how to properly treat you.
no subject
Your logic is sound...I am amenable to this.
Arsene....there is something that I have been meaning to ask you. Through the chaos during the healing trance....I felt something....foreign. Did someone come into psy-contact with me?
no subject
I...called a friend of mine who's a doctor, actually. Trafalgar Law, the head doctor in the Battle Dome. He has contracts with all of the filial spirits here, and he's a terrifyingly cool headed and powerful fighter and field commander. You don't really argue with a man who can rend a Kraken without laying a hand on it.
He has access to haki, like several others in the enclosure. I still don't fully understand what all it does, but it allowed him to...
Let's just say 'assess the damage.'
I was worried when you didn't wake up. That's why I called him...and why I think it's important for you two to meet.
Besides. [a quick, sheepish smile.] It's hard not to like him. He's a very interesting man.
no subject
Will he be the one to facilitate my 'check-up'?
no subject
I'll make sure of it. He's one of the most discreet men in the village, and the only one I've told about our...bond.
[Saying it still gave him a pause of hesitation. Such frankness wasn't his custom, but this was a situation that required him to be open.]
no subject
Your discretion is noted. Though most people will not understand what the nature of our bond means, please feel free to inform your associates.
...
[A sudden nasty thought popped into Spock's head...what will happen if he is suddenly pulled back to his world? If the bond is ripped... he is concerned about the pain that would inflict on Lupin...]
no subject
[Said low, flat. That was part of the issue Spock had been pressing into earlier.
--but he noticed that subtle change in demeanor.]
What's up?
no subject
Just a minor complication, but nothing that needs to be done right away.
[Spock gets up and looks at the tea tray, wondering if another pot of tea can be made.]
no subject
[A part of him didn't believe it.
He saw that curious gaze and went to set another kettle of water simmering. It's always possible to make more tea.]
no subject
Indeed.
[Spock saw what Arsene was up to and figured they would have tea relatively soon and went to stand by the window....looking out.
There was still a lot of work to do, but his mind was starting to repair and he was regaining control once more. He was free to think of other things... and there was work to do.
However, he was content to rest for the time being and enjoy his time with Lupin. He realized that this situation was asking a lot of Lupin... And asking Lupin to be honest and confide in him was rather much. Hopefully with time... well, either way, he owed this man much.
Spock thought back to the meditation session... the desert garden. At the time he questioned the logic by creating that image to reflect the bonds his mind contained...
But he remembered his mother's garden and how she tended to it dutifully everyday... and the peaceful times he had helped her.]
no subject
[It was a thoughtful hum, given as he spooned out the appropriate amount of tea leaves into the serving pot and started warming their cups. He was feeling calmer himself, and was content to just enjoy the relaxation while they could. Odds were high that they wouldn't get another chance for a long while.
Once the tea was ready and served he joined Spock at the window. The man's reverie was noted when he passed a cup off.]
Thinking anything special?
no subject
I was thinking about the garden my mother used to keep. It was there that I found the inspiration for the projection...
no subject
[He trailed, taking a sip of his tea as he thought. Of course the garden was significant like that. It was a comfort, like how Spock slipped into his bed that one night to sleep. After what happened to his home, and the manner in which he grew up, Lupin couldn't fault him for such sentimentality.]
...thank you for showing all of that to me. It must have...been hard.
no subject
Think nothing of it sa-kai....
It was...difficult. But the bond made it easier to show you. [Spock still could not help but think he was taking advantage... but the closeness was something that he...
well...
That should pass soon.
Spock kept his hands behind his back, his 'Vulcan-ness' slowly settling in.]
Your actions have been admirable. I hope that you did not experience too much emotional transference...
no subject
That was important, right?]
...I'm not trained for this sort of thing, you know. It's not something I've ever experienced before, but I've always been able to focus when under pressure.
That helped, but it was overwhelming at first.
no subject
Any being has the capability of concentrated meditation. The advantage that is apparent for you is that you have access to ...me. I am willing to teach if you would like to learn.
I can attempt to teach you to focus while not under pressure.
[Spock's amusement is thoroughly apparent at this point...]
no subject
I've tried meditating. It kind of didn't work too well, remember?
[It had helped him 'hear' Kipinn well enough to notice air currents with little concentration, but he still could barely manipulate them.
no subject
I have safely assumed that a personality like yours would require a great amount of focus for meditation.
no subject
Implying that I can't focus.
no subject
But I must admit to being curious at the 'selective' nature your focus has.
[Spock ducks his head...]
no subject
[Rattled off quickly. He didn't like explaining things that should be obvious.]
no subject
I realize why you have difficulty sa-kai, I was merely 'teasing' you. You do not need to change... it is part of your 'fascinating' personality. Perhaps it is my humour... it is something in which I need to work on.
[Spock leans back a bit...His Captain never seemed to understand his humour either... curious. Spock raises an eyebrow then moves away from the window towards the steeping tea.
How can he communicate to Arsene his worries regarding the link without coming across as...overbearing or overprotective...]
no subject
He wouldn't press, but he was curious.]
Last night...that little plant...it got me wondering about what the future holds. I've never entered into a 'contract' of this kind before.
no subject
The future is entirely what you make of it... and I did not want to burden you with copious amounts of unnecessary information...
The bond will either strengthen or weaken depending on how much you put into it....
If you choose to make it stronger there may come a time when we can mentally communicate over long distances with barely any effort. A negative factory would be the emotional transference... you could occasionally pick up vague impressions of what I am feeling, and that also goes two ways. However, now that I am in better control, privacy will be upheld. That is... unless I have another episode, but that is highly unlikely.
[Spock hesitates once more... ]
It is a rather small concern and too soon to tell if it has any real relevance...
However I fear for your mental well being if I am suddenly pulled from this world. I am unsure if the bond with sever and recognize it as a loss. For you the repercussions could be severe because you are a psy-null being. The grief could be...overwhelming.
On the other hand... the bond could stay in place and it will always serve as a reminder, no matter the universal distance.
[Spock looks at Lupin, wondering how he is processing this information.]
