swap random guy for Bones and it’s Jim and Spock’s wedding. They’re both more than a little drunk (hence spock smiling so openly - also he just married his t’hy’la, he’s allowed to be a little illogical) and Jim is telling Spock all about his new husband, how handsome he is, how intelligent, and did you know he’s the best officer in the fleet??? And Spock is just basking in it and Bones is just there trying to rein Jim in like Jim. Jim. That’s Spock. That is your husband.
btw. to any kids for whom hearing your parents move around the house is terrifying. at some point hearing the door open because someone’s home will make you smile. youll hear voices in the other room, or youll hear footsteps down the hallway, and it won’t be scary, it’ll be comforting. like i dont wanna be That Guy Who Says “It Gets Better” but im almost 27 and ive found the people im gonna spend my life with — hearing my roommates in the house is natural and normal in a good way. i know it feels like everything will always be awful but i promise you WILL make it out of your parents’ house, and the life you can build for yourself will make you happier than you ever knew was possible. at some point someone standing in your doorway will be because you love them and want to talk to them. itll be worth it, i promise.
