LIKE HOW IN THE FACE OF IMMINENT DEATH SPOCK STOPS AND TURNS BECAUSE HE WANTS MCCOYLEONARD TO UNDERSTAND HIS DEEP FEELS FOR THE DOCTOR SO JUST MAKE IT STOP HURTING RN PLEASE.
In star trek into darkness when Leonard finds himself walking onto the bridge with a Captain who is NOT Jim, he immidiatly pulls out his Padd and writes up his transfer before sending it to both the Captain and first officer.
Spock sees it first and just looks over at him in confusion cuz they’re supposed to leave today and what the hell is Leonard thinking
But the Captain actually turns around in his spot and asks what this is about.
To which Leonard replies with a simple “this is not my ship, and you are not my captain. Wherever you shipped Jim off to, that’s the ship I belong on”
The Captain absolutly tries to talk him out of this transfer because this is ridiculous, but Leonard is not budging.
And if Spock is a little impressed by Leonard’s loyalty, he doesn’t tell him until after Jim is back in the Captain’s seat and Nyota is telling him the epic tale of Leonard telling the ‘fake captain’ where to shove it
You know what, fuck everything, your ship, my ship… Thank you Beyond for letting Uhura kick ass and for letting Spock and Uhura’s relationship really SHINE.
