i love how tuvok’s answer to everything is a mind meld. i mean it makes sense when he does it. like i can understand his reasoning. but i don’t know that this would be every vulcan’s first course of action. so i imagine every time he does it, whether it’s with a serial killer, or kes whose brain and even her very molecules are burning up and going all wacky, or seven who’s literally possessed by dozens of other minds, or captain janeway when his own mind is doing weird shit, vorik is somewhere on the ship internally going
vorik: have you seen lieutenant tuvok? i would like to wish him an acceptable kal rekk.
b’elanna: i think he’s in his weekly mind meld with lon suder. he should be out soon. if i see him i’ll let him know you were looking for him.
vorik, almost showing an emotion: i’m sorry, he’s doing what right now?
