Thank you... and I'm sorry for how I behaved earlier. It was completely out of line.
[Jim took a leap and leaned over to kiss Spock's cheek. He's fine, really! He just wants to curl up and sleep though... this kind of emotional talk was exhausting and beer didn't help his energy level.]
Jim I... don't know how to apologize. I've failed you completely. I was so far gone I didn't even notice you getting horribly abused.
... I'm the worst mother in the world.
No, stop that. I don't want to hear that. You had your head up your ass for a long time.
... I am awake now, Jim... if it means anything to you.
It does. I hope you stay that way.
I think it will. I spent so many years focused on the old hurts, I guess I thought life would run itself while I was away....
Anyway, it is getting rather late... did you boys want to stay here tonight? Frank won't be home for at least half the day tomorrow. Longer if I can bribe him.
