Summary
A Vulcan’s psychosuppressors can suppress a great deal of lust. But, check in with that Vulcan after riding a pulsing vibrator for 5 hours, and their control may be slipping. Spock, for example, had finished his second recitation of Surak’s Essays in Discipline in an effort to distract himself just as the 5-hour mark passed, and by now he was shaking constantly from the immense physical, mental, and psionic effort of restraining orgasm.
At least, Spock thought the 5-hour mark had passed - along with his inhibitions, his Vulcan internal chronometer had started to slip around hour 4, so really, time was an illusion. But, it wasn’t as if he had anywhere to be, strapped down to the bed as he was.
And, adding in the fact that they had begun their night by securing Spock’s collar - a sturdy synth-leather piece lined with gold studs and a matching oversized O-ring, the leather dyed a deep forest-green to complement his olive skin - around his neck, Spock couldn’t imagine wanting to be anywhere else.

In which Spock is edged, collared, and at Jim’s mercy.

Summary
Spock’s eyes openly wandered Jim’s body. His bent position over the console accentuated the ample curve of his ass in those bright-red shorts, and his plain grey t-shirt rode up ever so slightly, revealing a swath of gorgeously tanned stomach.
But, the enticing kicker was the slight glitter of sweat that dusted his exposed skin - not enough to drip, but just enough to make Spock’s mouth water. Sweat gave Jim’s skin such a perfect satin glow, and it served to carry his intoxicating natural scent that much more potently.
It was irresistible.
COURSE LAID IN FOR ALTAIR VI. ETA 5 HOURS 47 MINUTES.The computer read out. Spock’s psionic aura warmed - that was plenty of time for activities.
--
In which Spock goes full feline over Jim’s sweat.

“Come on, you tropical lizard, it’s shuttle time!”
“Are you sure?” Lorcan asked suspiciously. This would not be the first time her partner had coerced her from her bundle of warmth only to reveal that shuttle launch was hours away.
“Oh, come on, that was one time! Yes, I’m serious. Captain wants you on this first shuttle, too, says it’s time to work your magic.”
“It isn’t magic,” Lorcan protested, hauling herself from her hammock. “It’s science.”

Summary
They have words for ‘certain,’ ‘speculation,’ ‘hope.’ They hardly ever use them. Verb tenses (indicated with sound tags, like English does with ‘ing’ or ‘ed’) mark off whether a thing didn’t happen, possibly happened, probably happened, was personally witnessed to have happened, reliably documented to have happened, logically must have happened, or is hoped to have happened. Future tense is not as elaborate, since none of that has happened. Although there are a fucking boatload of past tenses, at least it is consistent. No irregular verbs at all.
This afternoon was all structural comparisons with Arcee. She says a sentence in English, then again in Cybertronix while I write it down. Then she checks the spelling. Then we would go through and gloss word by word.
It rained recently.
