This is what happens when I watch too much tv!

Disclaimer for entire story: Yeah, pretty much anything that could possibly make any money for anyone doesn't belong to me. They belong to other people. I do own an albino ferret though, and he's pretty cool.

Sheldon tried to ignore Penny as she let out yet another sigh. Then she started murmuring to herself. Will she ever let him watch a movie in peace?

He pressed pause before turning to look at her, "Penny, please explain why you keep sighing and muttering to yourself. It is distracting me from the movie."

Penny glanced at him from where she was cuddled up next to him. She didn't notice that she was making any noise. "Sorry."

A moment passed and just when Sheldon thought that she wasn't going to expand on her statement she blurted out, "It's just that it's a great part of the movie! You finally see Spock with emotions! And how Kirk had to goad him into losing his temper, and the fight scene! There is nothing like seeing a Vulcan lose control, Sheldon. And then later, when Spock and Uhura are kissing on the teleport thingy? Hot."

"You are entirely missing the point of this movie." Sheldon informed her. He chose to ignore Penny rolling her eyes at him as he continued, "This movie expands on the multi-verse theory, as explained by American philosopher and psychologist William James in 1895, while simultaneously entertaining an entirely new generation to the joys of Star Trek."

"Sorry Sweetie, but I'll take Zachery Quinto over Leonard Nimoy any day." At Sheldon's death glare she added, "Well, look at him! You gotta admit, he's good looking."

Sheldon looked affronted, "You cannot believe that Penny! While Zachery Quinto did a more than admirable job reprising a much beloved role, Leonard Nimoy is the original. He developed Spock, and helped to form the character into what it became."

"But you made me watch Star Trek episodes with Spock in it before." Penny pointed out, "It's not as good as this one. You see how Spock is human too. This Spock has emotions."

Sheldon looked affronted. "Penny..."

"Don't say my name like that." She interrupted, "It makes me feel like I'm your pet or something, not your girlfriend."

Absently he apologized before continuing, "The original Spock conveyed a plethora of emotions, from happy to sad. Even anger and lust. If you had paid attention when I asked you to view the episodes with me, you would have noticed."

Penny glanced at him, her steely eyes meeting his challenging one. "Prove it."

Sheldon immediately replied, "Challenge accepted." He untangled himself from her warmth and went directly over to his dvd collection.

He opened up the case, found the disc he wanted, and instantly put it in the player. Once he was back in his spot, Penny cuddled up against him again. He was always so warm, and once they got him over the whole Penny's-germs-will-kill-me thing, quite the cuddlier.

"Observe." He said in a commanding voice, "One of the best episodes that centered around Spock and his emotions. Amok Time."

A couple of minutes in Penny whispered, "What's wrong with him?" Sheldon refused to answer.

A while later Penny's body stiffened up and he knew that she figured it out. "Spock's horny!" She proclaimed.

"I wouldn't exactly call it that." Sheldon started to inform her, "Every seven years Vulcan males go through a stage known as Pon Farr, where the blood boils and they think about nothing except copulation."

Penny replied in one word, "Horny."

They watched the rest of the episode in silence. Once the credits started rolling Penny turned to face Sheldon, and he was wary of the gleam in her eyes.

"So, your favorite is the Vulcans right? I mean, you want to be like them and stuff."

"I believe that we should all exercise restraint and self control." He replied.

In the year that they have been together, Penny had gotten very good at speaking Sheldonese, "That's a yes." She stated.

"Yes, it is." He whispered at her, the exclaimed aloud when she threw herself into his lap suddenly.

"Well then," She said, her voice kept very conversational while her hands started search underneath Sheldon's shirt to play with his stomach, "When do you think you're gonna go into Pon Farr?"

Sheldon moaned softly before standing up and guiding her to his bedroom.

When Leonard came home later, he heard Penny's high pitched giggles followed by Sheldon saying fascinating.

He just sighed, turned around, and left.

I've been working on my dialogue, and this is the result.
