[ She's nothing if not honest, and she has no qualms about confessing to him her genuine curiosity, as well as her interest. Though their first meeting wasn't exactly ideal, it was very pleasurable. She would like to revisit that. ]
I'm sorry that you're kept away from her while you're here.
[ She understands how difficult that can be for anyone in a monogamous relationship. After all, it may not be her norm but she has had one very happy relationship like that, herself. ]
Oh, I'm Tamaranean. I come from a planet in the Vega star system, have you ever heard of it?
[ All he does is nod when she gives her condolences. Spock misses her greatly, but he also has no idea how to react if she ever arrived her, if she'd understand or if she'd be angry or both. It's a troubling matter... but he would very much like to see her again.
But it's illogical to currently dwell on that so he doesn't. Instead, his eyebrow perks up. ]
Yes, I know of the Vega system. I was born on the planet Vulcan in the Vulcan system. My mother and many of my friends are from Earth in the Sol system. Do you know of these?
[ It's curious that he hasn't heard of her people before and wonders if they could be from the same galaxy or simply... similar ones. The latter would be unfortunate. ]
[ Kori may not see relationships the same way, but that doesn't mean she doesn't understand. Besides, she has been in at least one monogamous relationship, and she can't even imagine how difficult it would be for her to be in a place like this were she still engaged to Dick. She would certainly feel guilty, and even if she feels like Dick would do his best to understand, she can easily see how something like this would have affected their relationship.
So in a strange way, she is grateful she's in no such relationship now. It would make any potential reunion all the more complicated and bittersweet. ]
I know Earth; I've been there many times, and I've even live there for a period of time. But I've never once heard of Vulcan, nor seen anyone quite like you.
[ She tilts her head slightly. ] Similar, perhaps. But other than your ears, outwardly you are quite similar to Humans, so it's unfair to make that comparison.
It appears our homes are similar but not the same, then. I have not heard of your people, either, and my ship's mission is to explore new worlds and make contact with new civilizations. The Vega system has been explored long before my career truly began. [ Alas. ]
As for my physicality, Vulcans and Humans are extremely similar, but it is true that I also take some physical characteristics from my mother's side, as well. My eyes, I have often been told, appear human.
