    Summary

    Spock has made a grievous error. He has rebuffed and rebuked Jim’s friendship—worse, his very nature—at every turn since Jim’s ascendancy to captain of the Enterprise. And now that Jim has withdrawn, now that Jim has given up, Spock has finally realized the value of what was being offered.

    Summary

    “We were wrong about the pollen from Cetus II not affecting him,” Bones says in an undertone. “He didn’t get his senses tangled up like the others, though. It targeted his psionic abilities.”

     

    or, Spock's telepathy gets screwed up on an away mission. Laying hands on his crewmates to train his senses back to normal is the only cure. Jim is happy to help—even if there are some feelings he'd rather keep to himself.
