Prompt: Spock, Sarek - Resolve to do something (specific) in memory of Amanda.
Lines of Communication
″Father, I must report to you that little has changed since the last time we spoke. I remain in good health, as does Lieutenant Uhura. The ship has not been involved in any skirmishes in 3 weeks and 2.7 days. The Enterprise remains in orbit around Coritia and we are continuing to collect, identify, and catalog samples of the planet's flora. While I find the process interesting as we have discovered several new variations since this planet was last explored, I do not believe it will suffice as our sole conversational topic.″
″That is acceptable, my son. Scientific exploration of any sort is an admirable pursuit,″ replied Sarek.
″And yet I find it difficult to believe that it justifies the time you are taking away from your sleep cycle.″
″Spock, our continued and regular contact is what your mother would have wanted. Even if it consists solely of, as she would query, 'How was your day?'″
There was a lull in communication as both parties paused for reflection.
″Indeed. Father, please update me on the progress that has been made on the new Science Academy.″
