Saavik was curled up in chat surrounded by several children when her husband snuck into chat and surprised her. She jumped up and hugged him quickly.
"Spock! I thought you were busy with university!"
He smiled, hugging her tight and kissing her thoroughly before pulling away and resuming his stoicism. He looked around at all the children around them who gazed back at him in curiosity. The Vulcan leaned down and whispered into his wife's ear, "Aduna, who are these children?"
Saavik looked around and smiled, "These are my children, Adun. I've adopted them all at one time or another since I started. The lonesome ones, the hurt ones, the ones who need help; You know me, I can't leave them to suffer."
Spock nodded, "You do realize, I will not be claiming any of these children, yes?"
She looked up at him, startled and a little bit sad.
"Why not, Adun? They're my children, shouldn't they have a father?"
The male shook his head, "I'm not ready for children yet. In real life, or in game. They can find someone else to be their paternal influence."
Saavik breathed deeply, fighting back her tears and nodding, before turning her back on her husband and hugging the closest child. She smiled wetly as the rest of her children came into the room and cuddled around her, throwing evil looks at her husband as they formed a barrier of love.
Spock watched them for a minute before turning to check into the main room of chat and start his duties for a few hours before bedtime.
