Meeting of Minds

He had set a careful set of shields in his mind for this meeting, ones that he could raise and lower without allowing the ones that kept the bond quiet fall. It was not that he wanted to keep out Spock, but the constant source of headaches, in the most literal sense, would be a heavy distraction.
He pressed the buzzer outside the man's room, back straight. Without the ability to meld, he would instead work on the smallest basics first. He had worked with many students over the years, and with the help of his teacher, had only then been able to get into their minds. There was a lingering thought for her, the incredibly stern but well taught betazoid that had taught him how to shield himself.

Date: 2009-12-30 04:47 pm (UTC)As do I. Have you had further thoughts about Ayel and Nero?
no subject
Date: 2009-12-31 12:04 am (UTC)I have not yet had the opportunity to speak with Ael. But it is my plan to do so. It is... insufficient for love to limit in this fashion.

Date: 2009-12-31 12:09 am (UTC)Agreed. Something so uneven... it would not serve Nero or Ayel.

Date: 2009-12-31 12:25 am (UTC)It would serve Nero. It would, the odds are in favor, steady his mind. But Ael would be subject to him. A bonding in an unequal pairing is... easily abused.
His mind turned again to Pike and his Spock. Were they equals? Or was Pike forcing his own will in this situation?

Date: 2009-12-31 02:02 pm (UTC)What has made you happy, of late, Jim? I do not wish our conversation to spiral into such negative reports.
It was sentimental. But Spock would forgive himself.
