Summary
Shenanigans ensue when one middle finger to the Academy too many gets Starfleet Cadet James T. Kirk booted off planet for a summer internship aboard the V.S.S. Sh'Raan.
He's hiding a major secret from the oh so earnest and helpful Vulcans, but the longer he's on the ship, the more Jim starts to wonder if they're keeping secrets from him, too.
---
Captain Spisee handed Jim a heavy sheet of rich, cream paper embossed with gold dusted Vulcan calligraphy bearing the ship’s name. It was a bit cheap by the standards of Vulcan stationary aesthetics, but shipboard life meant some sacrifices. In the most elegant handwriting he’d ever had the privilege to lay eyes on, it read:

Summary
Some people assume Vulcans, being desert creatures, wouldn't like to get wet.
What they don't understand is that Vulcans, being desert creatures, appreciate water more than anyone else.

Summary
Spock tells Kirk about his planet long before they go. He is logical and straightforward, listing the objective facts, but Kirk knows what he means. When Spock says, “The temperature is significantly higher than Earth’s,” he means that sometimes the Enterprise gets cold, and he misses home. “A dry heat,” he assures Kirk, and Kirk knows it means that Spock can’t stand humidity. “The sands were always red,” and that’s why it’s Spock’s favorite color. “Near my home there was a Korian tree, and it was only in bloom five days a year,” so Spock sends a communication to his mother every year on those days and asks how the tree is doing. It’s a very beautiful picture that Spock paints with facts and numbers.
When Spock asks Kirk about Earth, about Iowa, all Kirk can describe are the stars.
