The brave and logical, the rest of the crew had started calling them; it was surprisingly fitting and not as annoying as Kirk had originally thought. Spock believed it a human term of endearment and tried not to comment on it. The only time it elicited any reaction whatsoever from him was when, after a rough evening and very late night, Spock had opened eyes to artificial morning light and nearly smiled as he spotted Kirk beside him, staring with those blue eyes and smirking in that way of his.
"Good morning, logical."
