090: Word
Kirk had heard the title an innumerable amount of times; had heard it through a whisper to divulge a secretive idea or through a yell to give warning.
It was only a two-syllable thing that others were called too (on their respective ships) and something that he had been at first surprised to be named but had eventually gotten used to.
When people said it to Jim it wasn't very important, just another word among others.
Yet there was something about the way it came from Spock; how he was careful in his articulation and tone – "Captain."
Jim felt proud.
