Summary
Spock can't sleep. It's not unusual. His mind often races with ideas more enticing than his dreams but tonight is different. Tonight, his thoughts are torture.
The things Jim had said to him in the transporter room replay like security footage in Spock's mind.

Summary
Spock tells Kirk about his planet long before they go. He is logical and straightforward, listing the objective facts, but Kirk knows what he means. When Spock says, “The temperature is significantly higher than Earth’s,” he means that sometimes the Enterprise gets cold, and he misses home. “A dry heat,” he assures Kirk, and Kirk knows it means that Spock can’t stand humidity. “The sands were always red,” and that’s why it’s Spock’s favorite color. “Near my home there was a Korian tree, and it was only in bloom five days a year,” so Spock sends a communication to his mother every year on those days and asks how the tree is doing. It’s a very beautiful picture that Spock paints with facts and numbers.
When Spock asks Kirk about Earth, about Iowa, all Kirk can describe are the stars.

Summary
Aziraphale felt his cheeks flush pink. “Yes. Well. It appears to be a curse for a cheating lover. The design is to create an ever-increasing obsessive need for the person who—”
“I’m well aware of what it does,” Crowley interrupted. Aziraphale glanced up from the book and took in Crowley’s stance, the apparent lax posture belied by the way he was clutching the edge of the countertop with white knuckles. Aziraphale swallowed.
“Is it…” Aziraphale faltered, then tried again. “Is it…” painful is how he told himself he wanted to finish the question. There was no other possible word to end that question that Aziraphale wanted to know.
“Don’t play dumb, angel. It doesn’t suit you.” Crowley’s voice was low, an edge of something to it that Aziraphale hadn’t heard since the Tadfield airbase, the moment Crowley was ready to give up and accept the apocalypse. He met Aziraphale’s eyes. “You know who I want.”

Summary
Leonard has a secret he's been carrying around for years, blood on his hands that drives away those he loves. So its understandable that the last thing he wants to do is confide in his friends- that is, until an unwelcome face from his past shows up and turns everything on its head.
(Or: Jim and Spock learn they aren't the only ones with difficult familial relationships.)
